I went to Wal-Mart and purchased the Kingdom Hearts II. I was going to buy the first one too (since I never actually beat it and would like to), but they didn’t have it. So I’ll just head straight to the second one…it’s okay. I watched the end video when Kyle beat it. :)
I expected Wal-Mart to be someone people-free. I though that everyone would either be drinking on the eve of the bridge run…or at home resting up for it. Little had I realized that a water main burst somewhere leaving most of Charleston (myself included) without water.
Whenever there’s a big tornado, the news always finds the trashiest white people from the ghetto-est trailer park around to talk about how they “jus’ never axpected that this could happen to us! Ma and I `ve lived here since we we were just brother and sister!” and all that, right?
Well, all of those people (in this county, at least) were at Wal-Mart tonight to load up on bottled water. It was a madhouse, full of folks whose family tree hasn’t split in centuries; and they were all incredibly panicked that they WEREN’T GOING TO HAVE ANY WATER. For most of them, it seemed about time for their weekly shower, so I can understand their concern.
I didn’t buy any water, though. For one thing, I already have some. For another, I see no reason to panic about things like that. Besides, if worse comes to worse and everyone runs out of bottled water, I’ll just get my dad to drive me down some. No worries.
Though the dregs of caucasianness were not the highlight of the evening. When I was walking in, the guy in front of me (he was one of the aforementioned people, btw) asked the greeter what time the store closed. It was as if he had never been to a Super Wal-Mart before. But…he had a Southern accent, so I find that impossible to believe. I don’t understand it: where are these people hiding?
Anyway, I’m going to go play my game now.
