Sneer

So today i was running around trying to find white seat cushions/pads for my wooden chairs in my kitchen. Apparently no place sells white cushions. I get the fact that white = shows dirt easily, but you'd think some store somewhere would have them. Well, not at Target, Kohl's, HomeGoods, Bed Bath and Beyond, JCPenney's, and anywhere else I may have gone. So unfortunately my never ending quest led me to KMart (last resort). While at KMart I saw this family that were typical KMart shoppers and they had something big in their cart (i think it was a desk or cabinet or something that they had to put together) and I overheard the younger son, who had to have been no older than 10, say "This is perfect. Too bad it was made in China." I suppose this is a typical WT Mid-American thing to say and the paradigm of dialogue in a store like KMart, but the whole incident made me kind of angry/sad about the world. Part of it has to do with how young the kid was. Kids that age learn that crap from their parents, not TV.

Oh well, I hope they get lead-poisoning from whatever they bought, which is a high-possibility, seeing as it is from China and all......
