I am more than sure on the corporate side Wal-Mart and Target are virtually the same, but being in the stores feels very different. Target is simply more pleasant to shop in than any Wal-Mart I have had to unfortunately go to- Target is far more clean, organized, and well stocked. If I have to go to either I sure as…

As with Costco, it took me some real efforts at super-mindfulness to stop buying stuff at Target that wasn't on my list. It was one of the most difficult shopping- and money-related changes that I've ever tried to make.

Since there is no such thing as Chanel Clorox, Givenchy Tampons or Dolce and Gabbana dental floss, I figure they have to visit the plebeians every now and then...if only for the essentials.

Exactly. Until I met Real Rich People I thought everyone with over $5 million was rich, and they were all pretty much equally as rich and going to the same rich schools and same rich vacations. Now I realise that there's rich and there's Rich, and those with serious money probably don't shop anywhere - They just have…

Off topic, but this is why I love celebrity dogs. Miley Cirus' dog doesn't care that she's Miley Cirus. He'd be happy with anyone who scratches his butt and dishes out the kibble. Dogs and Coca-Cola- the great equalizers.

....Mexican coke (available bottled at only some stores) is better!

I love Target. Don't bring up all the security breeches and website troubles they've had recently— my love is true and does not waver. I even worked at Target in college during Christmas (and it wasn't bad AT ALL). I've been to two different Targets the last two days in a row, mainly due to the Target phenomenon of…

Target is just fine for everyday stuff. If I somehow became rich, I wouldn't need designer coat hangers or artisanal household cleaners. I probably wouldn't buy the cheapest laundry detergent brand, but the best ones they carry would be just fine. I'd rather spend the money on a new house in a great location (and any…

Hahaha "only 5 Million" good one!!

Yeah. Duh. Which is why I said that.

I know this is tantamount to heresy on the Gawker sites, but maybe, just maybe, not every rich person got that way through inheritance, institutional racism, and crooked lawyers? Maybe a few of them actually, y'know, are smart with money? Which is why they shop at Target to save money.

There's a relevant Andy Warhol quote that I like about this:

Well, it must be admitted that you don't get rich by just randomly wasting money. Lots of rich people do not live the vulgar conspicuous-consumption lifestyle.

I admit that I have not yet read the opinion. (There isn't currently enough vodka in my house.) But perhaps someone can explain to me how the Most Supreme of Justices determined that "freedom of religion" really means "freedom to practice my religion without ever having to make a single sacrifice in a non-religious…

Cheaper, plus I imagine they want to encourage people to take quick showers and get out of there. Certainly that was probably the case historically in gym classes.

I believe, based solely on nothing but anecdotal evidence I've made up, that the NFL will be the league most widely accepting of homosexuality because the players turn over so damned fast. Even though it's supposed to be the most "macho" sport, more than any other sport, it's a young man's game. And as homosexuality…

I don't know what conservatives want anymore, it's all so contradictory. Have a million babies, but don't have any sex, stay home with the babies and don't work, but don't live off the system or expect low cost health care, just work harder and then you'll make more money, but don't expect small businesses to have any…

Why do they have to have open communal showers like they are in prison (and the military?) anyway? Gay, Bi, Straight I don't care...I want privacy. Does it cost that much more to make some damn walls with a curtain on the opening (or just a circular curtain if they super cheap/broke)?

SCOTUS interprets current law. Hobby Lobby was decided under the RFRA, not the constitution. A new law to extend or modify the RFRA would nullify the ruling, until and unless SCOTUS ruled upon that modification in turn.

Because if you understand how our government works, this is part of the system of checks and balances. The Supreme Court ruled based on the current laws of the land. If (hopefully when), this bill passes and is signed into law, then the Supreme Court will have to ensure that this law is upheld if anyone challenges…
