1. Well, Playboy has gone too far.

I wouldn't even read this magazine if Playboy pays me the equivalent of a Wal-Mart CEO's salary.

2. How nice!!!!

Playboy goes white-trash!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[underpants]

3. There's gotta be some hotties in there

gotta be.

[sexybomber]

46. Well if there are, Playboy will certainly find them.

Twenty bucks says they get less than ten hotties out of the countless thousands who send pictures.

26. Wow, Misinformed01! Have you actually been in a Wal-Mart?

Do you really not have a clue what type of fat and ugly freeper women work there?

[JanMichael]

29. We don't all live in Hell.

The people working at WalMart are no different from anyone else. They are however working for a company where only 35%-38% of the workers can actually afford their health plan, a company that took out Life Insurance Policies on it's elderly employees and named THEMSELVES as beneficiaries, use very questionable tactics to break unions and is an all around destructive element to other non-monopolistic businesses.

Many of those working there simply don't have any other opportunities either.

Plus they have to (at least they did a decade ago) group sing that god forsaken WalMart song every morning.

There are around 800,000 of these low wage workers in America who need our support.

To take such a snotty attitude toward a natural voting block is absolutely insane IMHO.

[rainydaywoman]

34. Thank You!!

Well said, JanMichael!!

I don't work at WalMart and pray I never have to, but I find the use of the words, white trash, to be just as bad as other racial slurs.
I am, however, very low income and often wonder if some DUers would probably think my family is "white trash", just because of our financial situation!?!

I'm a little disappointed...it just doesn't seem very democratic.

[JanMichael]

42. Bashing low income workers irritates me to no end.

My grandmother, who died at the age of 68 in 1988, worked as a waitress for almost her entire life. White Trash? No. My sharecropper grandfather dies, left her with two children in 1958, and she did what she had to do to keep food on the table.

Was she a farm girl from a dirt poor SW Missouri family? Yes. But what choice did she have in that?

As to you question? Yes, I wouldn't doubt that a few (not that many, just a few) DU'ers would call low income workers White Trash simply because they're low income. It's the American way apparently. Few however would do it in person.

[blondeatlast]

35. Thank you, JM. I despise Wal-Mart, but to be so callous

to those who work there is disgusting. Do the rules apply when someone denigrates non-DUers?

On edit: unfortunate typing error.

[ewagner]

4. Maybe I'm out of touch

but the only ladies I see working at Wal Mart are middle-aged and ....
...uuummmm....not Playboy material?

[dfong63]

25. wal-mart is the nation's #1 employer

odds are, there are quite a few beautiful women working there. the working conditions may suck, but some people just have no choice. and it's not cool to say mean things about people who are working sh*tty jobs because they have no choice.

[JanMichael]

30. I agree 100%.

Mocking our natural constituants is asinine.

[Jack The Tab]

5. Any Walmart person that does this...

is soon to be ex-walmart.

however, they may make more in one day than they could in 6 months slaving for the Walton family empire.

[Demobrat]

6. If I was working there and 20 years younger I'd do it.

Assuming, of course, that Playboy would pay me enough to get the frick out of there and go to school so I could get a decent job.

[Jeff in Cincinnati]

7. Clean up in Aisle 7!!!

I don't what that means, exactly, but if you say it just right it sounds vaguely obscene...

[amazona]

9. good, they get a chance to make some $$$ for a change

The models will probably make more from Playboy in an hour than they'd make all year at WalMart.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

10. Picturing most of the women at our local Wal- Mart nude...

that gives me the creeps :scared:

[expatriot]

11. Are Playboy Bunnies union?

that might cause problems.

But seriously, this is a complete fetish thing PB is doing... the whole desperate, white trash chick that just wants to get out of her 'dipshit' hometown.

"You from New York, mister?" She asked as her blue eyes lit up as she saw the license plates on the man's corvette.

[Blue_Chill]

12. Yikes

Playboy must be running low on naked chicas eh?

[Flying_Pig]

13. OMFG!

Have any of you *really* taken a close look at most of the women who shop at Walmart? The average one, is a good 50 to 100 pounds over weight, has three chins, and four kids. In addition, they are some of the most "unattractive" (I'm trying to be nice here), women I have ever seen, anywhere, ......and Playboy wants to do a shoot? Bwwaaahahahaha!!

18. Sadly, S/he isn't the only one

on this thread with the same opinion.

Sickening isn't it? Comments like this on a Democratic board always upset me-

[blondeatlast]

38. Um, while I agree with your emotions on this,

that is a clear violation. Let's not make this any worse than it already is (if that's even possible).

[Rich Hunt]

22. I dunno

I'm such an elitist snob that I wouldn't be caught dead shopping at the cheap-ass Wal-Mart with ugly fat people. I prefer the anorexics at Bloomingdale's.

[Scairp]

14. They should go to the one by my house

I wonder if they'll pick the fifty-something cashier with the missing and rotting teeth? Or maybe the obese thirty-something who's ass is three times bigger than mine? I worked at Wal-Mart, I shop there and you NEVER see any Playboy material in a blue smock. I have no idea what they are thinking. Although I myself am acceptable looking, I certainly am no 20 year old nymphet (not anymore anyway). Bad place to look for a centerfold.

[jmm]

15. I bet woman could earn more in one day posing for Playboy

than she could working as a cashier for over a year at Walmart.

[RobertSeattle]

16. When are they doing women of Faux News?

Caveat: I have much more respect for someone who whore's their body than whore's their mind.

[ewagner]

27. Very good point n/t

[beanball]

28. Those foxy ladies

at Jack in the Box are really hot.(bare boob on a bun)

[qb]

19. Why Walmart? Why not KMart, Target, ???

I suspect someone at Playboy loves the idea of taunting the religio-fascists who run Walmart.

[Hubert Flottz]

20. Why not preacher's daughters?

Of Preacher's wives? They could call it the rerun edition!

[JVS]

43. That sounds fabulous

I'd buy an issue

[prolesunited]

31. I would agree with you

It's definitely a poke a WalMart's "morality."

Wal-Mart Stores Inc. on Friday said it is rolling out magazine racks that partially cover the pictures and catchy but usually sex-oriented headlines of four women's magazines -- considering them as "provocative."

The move, which will only affect those magazines sold at the check-out racks, comes a month after the world's largest retailer pulled from its shelves three men's magazines known for cover photos of scantily-clad models.

Family friendly Wal-Mart has been bowing to customer complaints on certain items sold in its stores. It has refused to sell certain CD's with explicit lyrics, pulled controversial toys and other products which it felt offended customers.

Guess they won't be carrying this issue of Playboy, either. :shrug:

[Kat45]

21. I think it's a riot!

Of course, I tend to be amused at anything done to piss off WalMart. I just hope employees don't get harrassed/threatened/fired if they consider doing it.

[Aristus]

23. Playboy pays better,

and is ultimately less soul-killing than Wal-Mart. Power to'em, if they can find any qualified takers.

[Wickerman]

24. You got it

far more honorable to pose nekkid in Playboy than to work fully clothed in that pit of unspeakable evil - Walmart. Playboy, it can be aruged, degrades women, yet compensates them well. Walmart degrads humanity and steals their souls, 3 cents on each dollar.

I will never forgive them for ruining so many area small towns.

[dfong63]

32. let's not vilify the victims

far more honorable to pose nekkid in Playboy than to work fully clothed in that pit of unspeakable evil - Walmart.

let's not vilify people who may have no choice but to work there.

after all, if they had another option, don't you think they'd take it?

[Wickerman]

33. I wouldn't presume to speak for all Walmart employees

I am surprised that you would. I imagine some folks actually aspire to work there. That is their decision - it is not my task to defend them and its not up to you to enable them. I sincerely doubt many employees have any ethical qualms about their employment - I base that on the fact that so many otherwise intelligent folks are willing to sell their souls for the few cents they save by shopping there.

Walmart destroyed my small hometown - wiped out the downtown, taking business from the merchants who had their businesses in the family for 2 and three generations. And that was their business plan. They idd it all over the Midwest. I have no respect for anyone who drove out to the edge of town to take that crappy 32 hour a week no benefit job while watching them destroy the businesses their neighbors created from generations of sweat.

[disgruntella]

36. I cannot support Wal-Mart, not even in this

So I'll be waiting for "The Babes From BIG LOTS" :evilgrin:

It just has a ring to it. (And yes, I'm a female, but who cares?)

[Wickerman]

37. Damn, anyone know how to get carbed water off a computer screen

Babes of Big Lots!!! Yer killin' me! Bwwhaahaaa!
:toast:

[BiggJawn]

40. AHHHHH! No! Not BIG LOTS!!!

Even though the little one with the 3 piercings in her eyebrows has a cute butt...

[disgruntella]

41. How about:

The Sirens of SHOPKO (or Sam's Club)
The Titilating Temptresses of TARGET
The Cunning Cuties of COSTCO

Oh my goodness, I'm shocking myself.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

45. I've seen prettier looking women at "Big Lots" than I ever have at

Wal Mart

[Terwilliger]

39. Christians? Isn't THIS the sign of the apocalypse??

must be!

[Terran]

44. Our Wal Mart has some attractive female employees

but more important (to me) is the fact that it has *very* attractive male employees! :evilgrin: (not to mention customers)

But seriously people, bashing Wal Mart employees is identical to bashing low-income people. I know a lot of people who work for Wal Mart, and it's a second job for all of them because they have to have it to make ends meet. Don't disrespect hard-working people just because they work for a company you don't like.
