Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Faces | Matt Nielsen

1. 'Hungry' This face is usually noted as having a gaping mouth, often accompanied by streams of drool.

2. 'Pissed' Usually bright red, with veins prominently protruding from the temples and occasionally the forehead. Almost no flinching of the eyes is noted.

3. 'Sleepy' Droopy, baggy eyes and the occasional red spot on the forehead shaped like a desk/book/hand.

4. 'Lost' Characterized by the eyes being glazed over. Also known as the 'Deer in the Headlights' look.

5. 'Bull----er' This face is identified by the total improbability of the crap emenating from the mouth.

6. 'Happy' Grinning ear to ear and wanting to tell everybody why.

7. 'In Love' Characterized by the head tilting to one side just a little, the eyes appearing large and often times teary, and a small smile on the mouth.

8. 'Puppy Dog Look' Same as above except the eyes are batting and the mouth is usually in more of a really pathetic frown.

9. 'Bored' Similiar to the 'Sleepy' and 'Lost' faces but without the red mark on the forehead.

10. 'Teenager' All of the above except with pimples.

That teenager look is perfect. How often do you see a male teenager walking around looking "lost"? Maybe I should refrase that question. How often DON'T you see a male teenager walking around looking "lost"?

I love the climax. It is both unexpected and true. Both for male and female teenagers.
