Water's pretty cheap from the tap too

What's not to love? How about the way they treat their employees (poor pay, prevention against unions), the companies they do "business" with, the customers (many cases of racial and sexist discrimination), and the smaller businesses around them who have to close down because they can't compete with the prices (which often end up requiring the suppliers to PAY walmart to sell their products)? Or the fact that walmart is one of the largest retailers in the world and controls the production and sales of products it sells with the snap of a finger? Walmart promotes sweatshop labour, and they have been known to sell illegally-produced merchandise in the USA, plus they sell guns in the USA.

Chris, either you're looking for a beatdown, or you just don't know the people on this forum very well yet.

Erik already said it, so I won't say it again.

Edit: I love footbag!!!! Dude seriously, is it just me or does everyone else think about footbag like 24/7 too? It's really crazy. I'm sure I'll get used to it one day, but man it's seriously an obsession.

i love footbag soo much, i am constantly thinking about it and relating it to life no matter where i am.

The other day i was at the gym, and there was a trainer working with this lady doing kickboxing things. I was watching the combos she was doing, and she kept doing the same thing over and over, and i thot to myself, why doesnt she do the same combo (punch>op punch>duck>kick) BSOS? so, being the way that i am, i went up to the trainer and suggested that he make her do the same combo, but with switching up the sides, and then try it all bsos. He thot it was a great idea, and once again footbag helped another person.

Just thought that i would share that story and how i am obsessed with footbag.

After work I was absent mindedly fooling around, doing double down motions or something... my mates like:

"Were you just dancing?"
"No"
"You were weren't you"
"No"
"You were dancing"

<3 footbag
