Claim: Wal-Mart Can Make You Impotent

They've tried everything else, why not this one?:

Concerns also have been raised about noise and light pollution [from a proposed and challenged new Wal-Mart Super Store], including a much-discussed claim by Washington State University Professor James Krueger on Jan. 13 that light pollution could cause Pullman men to become impotent. He based the claim on research involving deer.

Well, there's your problem with this study right there. The research involved deer. Of course this research showed male impotency. Who the hell wants to fuck a deer? I mean, yeah, okay, I'll admit it, I had a crush on Bambi's girlfriend Felina as a kid (almost as big as a crush as I had on the Zsa Zsa Gabor mouse from The Rescuers), but I'm older now, and I just don't find animals arousing anymore.

Well, not as arousing. Zira from Planet of the Apes is always kind of cute. It always leads to the question: Would you rather have sex with a charming, intelligent ape-woman who was also a medical doctor, or a mute retard like Nova?

Of course the answer is the latter. I didn't say it was an interesting question. Just a question.

Sometimes there's just no good joke you can make, and you should probably just give up, rather than throwing a lot of lame crap at the wall. I know this in my head, but not in my heart.

Thanks to RLW.

I am sure your female readers can clue us in on what exactly made Howard the Duck so damn sexy.

As for me, Jessica Rabbit. Mmmmm...

is this one of those trick questions?

The babes love me because I wear long shorts... if you know what I mean!

Posted by: Howard T Duck on January 23, 2006 11:28 PM

Well, dat do explain why I always wears my suit when I goes shopping at the wal-mart. Iffen I's gonna be impotent.....

You say mute as if it is a bad thing.

Posted by: someone on January 23, 2006 11:49 PM

here's a tough choice...

Daphne (hot, but stuck-up)

or

Velma (not-so-hot, but very possibly lesbian)

Hmmmmmmm.........

Posted by: wiserbud on January 23, 2006 11:50 PM

Velma all the way - Daphne is probably a lazy lay. She'd just lay there and expect you to be thanking your lucky stars. Velma would put her back in to it.

Posted by: steve_in_hb on January 23, 2006 11:53 PM

I got my undergrad degree in Pullman (class of 2003), and there was no impotence problem that I could see. There were, however, some astronomically high STD rates.

Posted by: katie on January 23, 2006 11:54 PM

"...there was no impotence problem that I could see"

What was your sample size?

Posted by: steve_in_hb on January 23, 2006 11:57 PM

First they drive out the small businesses and then they make us impotent. Is there no end to their devious evil? I say as punishment for this final insult, Walmart should be required to provide us with hot babes until we are demonstrably fully recovered. It might take several babes. I'll take two before bedtime and check in tomorrow morning if I need more.

It can certainly make you impatient. Nothing like waiting 2 hours for the conga line of 400 pound inbreds to shuffle past the one cash register out of 30 that they actually keep open nowadays.

Why SSS, how very enlightened.

Posted by: geoff on January 24, 2006 04:26 AM

steve,

Touche, dude. But I based that comment mostly off stories from my (nine) roommates, as I was a giant nerd.

But seriously, worrying about impotence in Pullman is like worrying about a drought when the rivers are overflowing.
And it breaks my heart that the liberal morons have taken over that town.

Posted by: katie on January 24, 2006 04:38 AM

What? Louisiana is a fat-ass state, and the local white trash are no exception.

Posted by: scarshapedstar on January 24, 2006 05:02 AM

Ah.... Bianca!

Since Wally World seems to be bending over backwards to accomodate all the naysayers at their new locations, we can expect the new Pullman store to be handing out v*agra, c*alis and l*vitra at the door.

Posted by: rls on January 24, 2006 07:38 AM

I always appreciate it when a Lefty is willing to go on the record with his disdain for his fellow man. They typically like to hide their pretentious, narcissistic elitism behind a facade of concern for all men. But, we all know - and sometimes they slip and allude to the fact - they have a general disdain for anyone who doesn't meet their criteria for being enlightened. You know, if you are a white male without a college degree you are "trailer trash". If you are a white, college-educated male without a journalism, philosophy, or poli-sci major - you are simply a Rethuglican and/or neo-con.

I am sure that StarShapedScar is a better man than most - just ask him.

Posted by: TheShadow on January 24, 2006 08:09 AM

Having rarely shopped at Wal-mart, I can't comment on impotence within the store. However, it is clear that no thug posting on this thread has ever been within miles of a Wal-Mart.

Also, I'm glad I didn't read this mess of a thread last night. Nightmares and all.

Posted by: KevlarChick on January 24, 2006 08:30 AM

This story just smacks of the entire "Islamic men hate the United States because we can make their penises fall off with a technology we call "pop music"" story.

Oh... and for the record? Velma all the way. I've always had a thing for nerd girls. They're cute, smart, and generally a wildcat in bed.

The lighting makes you limp because you get a good look at just how unattractive your fellow shoppers are. How the cellulite is visible through stretch pants, or how the slice above the belt needs a date with a razor. That'll take the starch out of anybody but a teenager.

You guys never had to spend any time with Velma. Hey, if you can put up with the tedium and the man-bashing, give it hell. I had to be restrained from cold-cocking her after 20 minutes in the Mystery Machine.

Posted by: Scott on January 24, 2006 09:14 AM

Do I have to choose between Daphne and Velma? 'Cause to be honest, the only right answer there is "Both. At the same time." That way everyone will be satisfied.

More idiotic blabbering from the wackos including a WASHINGTON STATE moron who nose tries to compare impotence of deer to what could happen to people if a WAL-MART is built frankly that egghead should stick his nose in a pencil sharpener

Posted by: spurwing plover on January 24, 2006 09:47 AM

The average Wal-Mart supercenter has 230 security cameras.

Anyone who wants to test this "impotence" theory should keep this in mind. Best to wait until you've left the store.

Posted by: Dave in Texas on January 24, 2006 10:08 AM

Thats just friggin great. We just opened up our new show room right across the street from a Wal-Mart. Now in addition to being in debt up to my nut sack I get to worry about impotence. And I just bought a babe magnet too (aka a Golden Retriever puppy).

I blame Bush.

Posted by: JackStraw on January 24, 2006 10:14 AM

A puppy?!!

"local white trash" - scaredface

Scar,

You must be Episcopalian.

So help me out, Mr. Social Register.

If there's white trash, then there's also white non-trash, right? (Such as your self-anointed preening self.) How do you tell them apart? (Or in other words, please give us the parameters of your snobbery.)

Is there also 'asian trash', 'hispanic trash' or 'black trash'? How do you tell the 'trash' in these groups from the non-trash? Or do you just consider 100% of those groups to be trash?

Final question: Why not stop being a snob and treat and talk about all people as being your equal, i.e. be a 'small d' democrat instead of a 'capital D' Democrat elitist? Who knows, you might even win a few elections.

Bonus question: is your Democrat governor, Kathleen Blanco, 'white trash' or just an incompetent moron?

My eldest daughter talked me into a beagle puppy. Initially I didn't want to, was afraid it might be a Sully magnet.

However my fears were without foundation. The ladies go gaga over him.

Named him Moses.

Posted by: Dave in Texas on January 24, 2006 10:43 AM

So, Dave - absent a Red Sea in TX, what does your Beagle cause to part? I mean, can you provide us with anecdotes re: his, um "babe-magnetness?"

Just curious.

Posted by: Rocketeer on January 24, 2006 11:01 AM

And there I was, forming my remarks to go after Sliver-Sized Salami... but everyone seems to have beaten me to it.

Hey SSS- are you talking shit about my home state through personal experience, or did you just read that?

Hell, I'd be impressed if you could find the place on the map.

Everyone knows men that live in Pullman, Wash are impotent anyways, so why would they object???

Posted by: OneDrummer on January 24, 2006 11:31 AM

I thought the title of this post was "Wal-Mart can make you important". Then I thought, "That makes no sense!" Then I read it again, and it still made no sense. But whatever.

Anyway. Zira, definitely. She may be smart, but she's uglier than Nova, so she'd be trying much harder. Plus, she'd use science to please her man. She'd have like algorithms and junk to make sure your get-down-get-funky shenanigans were happening with optimal effect.

Nova's got this clingy vibe about her, too. Zira's the choice pick here.

Posted by: Monty on January 24, 2006 11:44 AM

Moses?!!

*squeal!*

Dave in Texas, please take me to the Promised Land!

In college, I had a beagle-ish mutt. Smartest and sweetest dog ever. Oh, shit. Now I'm depressed.

-- reportedly a genuine comment offered by a "senior Labour source"
Correction: I wrote that Labour is losing 88% (now 87%) of the seats it is "defending." I think that's wrong. The right way to say it is the seats they are contesting -- that is, they don't necessarily already hold these seats, but they have put up a candidate to run for the seat. It's still very bad but not as bad as losing 87% of the seats they already held.

🚨ED MILIBAND [a Minister in Starmer's government] SAYS KEIR STARMER WILL RESIGN AS PRIME MINISTER

He has reportedly reassured Labour MP's that Starmer will be resigning following the disastrous results tonight

It's over
"The end of the two party system in the UK" as first the Fake Conservatives and now Labour chooses political suicide rather than simply STOPPING THE INVASION
Incidentally, the only reason this didn't already happen in the US is because of the Very Bad Orange Man (who is right on 85% of all policy calls and extremely, existentially right on 15% of them)
No political party that is NOT also a doomsday religious cult would EVER choose a cataclysmic loss -- and possible extinction as a party -- to support a toxically unpopular favoritism of NON-CITIZEN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS over actual citizen voters.

Only a cult does this.
Now they've lost 84%.
Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
If this continues Labour loses 2,148 seats tonight.

That is much worse than the worst case predictions I’ve seen.

Cataclysmic

Update: They've now lost 88% of the seats they're defending. As I mentioned earlier, I think I heard that London will not bail them out, as many of those Labour seats will probably flip to "Muslim Independent" or Green. Detroit's 5am vote will not save them.
Yup, Labour is losing 80% of its seats...
The British Patriot
@TheBritLad

🚨 BREAKING: Labour have lost 80% of all seats contested as of 2:25 AM.<
br> If this continues, Keir Starmer will be out of office next week.

Reform has surged and projected to pick up between 1700-2100 seats.


Wow, up to 1700-2100 seats. It's not incredible that this is happening. It's incredible that the Davos crowd is so absolutely determined to privilege Muslim "migrants" over the actual native population who elects them, no matter how loudly the natives scream that they want to be prioritized, that they will gladly self-extinguish as a party rather than simply representing the interests of their own voters. Astonishing.
Remember, when they call other people "cultists" -- they are the ones so imprisoned in their social reinforcement and discipline bubbles that they will choose political death rather than dare upset the Karen Enforcement Officers of their cult.
Update: Now they've lost 83% of the seats they were defending.

@DPJHodges

Reform are basically wiping Labour out in the North. It's not a defeat. It's not even a rout. Labour are simply ceasing to exist.


Nick Lowles
@lowles_nick

Tonight’s results are calamitous for Labour. Not just for Keir Starmer's leadership, but for the very future of the party
STARMERGEDDON: In early returns, Reform gains 135 seats, Labour loses 90, the Fake Conservatives lose 36 (and I didn't even know they could fall any further), the Lib Dems lose 4, and the Greens gain 6. Note that the only other party gaining seats is the Greens and they're only gaining a handful of seats.
Update: Reform now up 145, Labour down 98.
Labour projected to lose Wales -- where they've ruled for 27 years.
Fulton County Georgia just discovered 400 boxes of ballots for Labour
Update: REF +156, LAB -107, CON -45
Brutal: In four out of five council seats where Labour is defending, they've lost. 80%.
I'm sure it's not this simple, but Reform is straight taking Labour's and the "Conservatives'" seats. They've lost almost exactly what Reform gained. If understand this right (and warning, I probably don't), all of London's council seats are up for election, and Labour might lose hugely there, as their old voters abandon them for Reform, Muslim Indenpendents, and the Greens.
REF +190, LAB -134, CON -56.
Updates on the Labour collapse in council elections -- which wags are calling #Starmergeddon -- from Beege Welborne. There are about 5000 seats up for grabs, Labour is expected to lose 1,800, Reform will probably gain 1,580, up from... zero. So this would be more than that.
People claim that while Labour has adopted the Sharia Agenda to appeal to the million Muslims it allowed to migrate to the country, those voters are ditching Labour to vote for the Muslim Independent Party or the Greens. Delicious. This shadenfreude is going straight to my thighs.
Oh, and if Starmer loses about as badly as expected, Labour will toss him out of a window Braveheart style and replace him. He will announce he is resigning to spend more time with his Gay Ukrainian Male Prostitutes.
Media bias and senationalism are as old as, well, the media:

That was written by Denny O'Neill and illustrated by, get this, Frank Miller. Editor to the Stars Jim Shooter was in charge at the time.
I always thought the gag was original to the comic book, but in fact the "Threat or Menace" headline was a satirical joke about media bias and sensationalism for a long while. The Harvard Lampoon used it in a parody of Life magazine: "Flying Saucers: Threat or Menace?"
