Attention Wal-Mart Shippers

The WAL-MART meme




Open 24-hours, in large cities Wal-Mart is a place people show up to shop mindlessly for anything they need. In small towns, it may be literally the only business open after 10pm, making it an unlikely hang-out for locals.

Regardless of where it's located, Wal-Mart always seems to have the strange effect of making time crawl, as the aisles stretch on into infinity, and the tinny in-store music plays on a loop.


RULES:

Post to the meme.
Shop. Anything can be found at Wal-Mart, and in a meme, perhaps that's truer than ever
Get lost in the endless aisles.
Get found in the cafe.
Find a friend. Find an enemy. Find an employee
Have fun.

[There is a woman, pale, ethereal, seemingly human from a distance — up close, she is something of an anomaly — who is traversing the seemingly endless rows of human miscellany with the energy of both reverent fascination, and that of some sort of feral, weaponized child.

She’s found a Nerf gun. She’s also found a real gun, because it’s Wal-Mart. Each hangs off her waist, though this seems overkill, given that she appears to be armed with a sword, and an even bigger, scarier sword. Both hover at her back, held in place by strange rings made of light. There is also a floating little box with her, carrying what looks like a bunch of Airheads and M&Ms. And lollipops, and Takis.

The woman is tentatively nibbling at one of the Airheads.]


Hey. What’s a “mystery” flavor?

[The box responds:]

Unknown.

[The woman scoffs.

They’re shoplifting.]

[ Apparently whoever planned out the layout of this place decided the liquor aisle should be next to family planning and as Faye starts to head for the checkout line, that familiar tall, one-eyed paleness catches her eye and she stops in her tracks. And, naturally, she has to walk over, a bottle of whiskey hugged to her chest, and a playful smirk on her face as she eyes his cart full of lube and condoms. ]

You must get a lot of looks with an impressive stockpile like that.

[Not quite startled he is, however, a bit surprised to see here in such a store and at such a time.

Then he sees the bottle and things instantly make sense.]


Not here, believe it or not. Suppose there's a reason involving mullets for that.

[He smirks, leaning over the cart handle, his eye on the bottle.

And her chest, yeah.]


Thirsty?

[Please ignore the mess on aisle ten. Some dapper-looking old guy is pilfering through the alcohol inventory looking for a decent bottle of wine. Unfortunately, he doesn't realize this is Walmart and not Trader Joe's. He's going to be sorely disappointed soon.]

Ew, who drinks wine out of cardboard?!

[Yeah, this shit is already going south.]

[ Faye grips the bottle by the neck, holding it out to briefly study the label with a shrug. ]

I guess you could say I'm doing a little restocking myself. It's cheap but it does the job.

[ Her smirk softens into something of a smile as her gaze returns to his face. ]

I'd offer to share but it looks like you might have other plans.

Won't get any judgment from me.

[He shrugs and looks down into his cart. Huh, he did get a lot of stuff, didn't he?]

Always helps, especially in this day and age. Can never be too prepared, you know?

[Now practically doubled over the cart now, he leers up at her.]

I'm not that busy. You sure you can't share?

[Between the admittedly scary-looking swords, the handgun, and floating little robot behind her, Anjou doesn't know what he wants to comment on first. The woman in question looks as young as his students back at Cassell College but something tells him that she's not some broke-ass college student. Well, she might be broke since she's shopping here at Walmart but she doesn't seem like your average student.]

Typically anything "mystery flavor" means it uses artificial sweeteners.

[He answers with a faint smirk on his lips. Anjou didn't mean to eavesdrop but he couldn't help but add his two cents anyway. After all, he's a nosy old man shopping for cheap wine in the middle of the night.]
