You mean the one that pays many employees so little the employee qualifies for food stamps (I understand it’s now called SNAP) which they’ll use at the Superstore thereby indirectly getting government funds to pay the employee their sh!t wages to begin with? Yeah!
Thanks! I recognized the scene but couldn’t think of the movie’s title. IIRC “March of the Wooden Soldiers” was the edited re-release from the 50s. The 30s original, “Babes in Toyland”, ran about five or so minutes longer. Not sure what little bit (or bits?) were removed or why. (Yes, I am into nostalgic media like movies, radios, comics, etc.)
I got one last year for a chain I won’t patronize due to the corporation’s publicized political, financial and moral opinions/actions. (I won’t say which one.) I gave it (in addition to a cash Christmas “bonus”) to some one I had employed off-and-on during the year to help me with yard work. I knew his wife and him could use it far more than I could to support their low-income family. (I guess in a way I did use it.)
Reminds me of the joke where an angel shows up with a Christmas tree at Santa’s workshop after Santa had a rough day. The angel asked “Where do you want to put it?” and the rest if history.
My dad worked in automotive warehouses most of his career. He would always drag home leftover metal signs, premiums after contests would end (like a lovely set of decorated glasses and matching pitcher still in original box) and what have you. When my siblings and I were cleaning out the garage and basement a couple of them just wanted to toss most of it. I said I’d take the time to search online and found quite a bit of it (especially the old signage for petroleum brands that no longer exist) were worth up to a couple of hundred dollars per piece. My sister and I managed to sell it off eventually and divided the money among all us kids.
Too much baking soda will probably give the “cookies” a soapy taste and they’ll be somewhat large (fused into one big blob cookie?) and be crumbly like cake instead of “firm”. And hasn’t Shannon seen an adult bake cookies? Where’s the gallon of milk and a dozen or so eggs (with shells?) she thinks should be added?
I know who you’re referring to. I’d like to give it to them “about a mouth.” A steel-toe boot to each of their jaws would make me feel d@mn good. A hot poker plunged where the sun don’t shine would be more appropriate IMO. The quickest way to give them the lobotomies they deserve.
