People of Walmart

This one is just too easy of a target and I just think it's mean to pick on people who either don't have the means or just don't care how they dress.

Okay, the next time I'm in Saks and I see an elderly man dressed like a pimp, I'm starting my own website. Done and done.

The thing is, poor people everywhere else in the world DO NOT DRESS LIKE THIS. You don't see beggars in Cambodia dressed like Elvis. You don't see poor schoolchildren in Italy wearing shirts with Nazi Party insignia. For people to say that a website like this is classist is extremely patronizing. No one's dressing like this because they don't have anything else to wear.
