Some of those have to be from a Halloween. I can't imagine some of those costumes any other times.

But you are right some of them are just people who don't realize that spandex isn't flattering when you have a sturdy build or are extremely fluffy.

And then they get all mad and insulted if anyone notices. LOL.

Are there no "indecent exposure" laws in force? I can't believe people really do this or that anyone would even pose for these pictures if they were paid. Guess I am too much Old School~~~~? Thanks for the link Charlee, the tune is cute and so right!!

If you think these photos are bad, there are a couple of "parades" in San Francisco that are outrageous and "clothing optional".

I agree that a lot of the photos of the WM people were taken around holidays; however, some weren't. There are also a lot of people in rural areas (and some not so rural areas) that can't afford good clothing and good nutrition and are just too tired after a hard day's work to clean up and change into a nice outfit to go shopping.

I don't care what they wear as long as there's nothing hanging out. LOL

Actually if you go to the PeopleofWalmart.com site you can see where the photos were taken, at least the state is listed.

You should see what walks into the Portland, OR Walmart. There is a reason the city motto is "Keep Portland Weird!".
