Umm It's Halloween Time and Umm Walmart, That's Strike One!!!

Well it's Halloween time! As I was rolling my eyes looking at this years starter crop of distasteful Halloween costumes (ebola costumes, child as Ray Rice, some chick as a used sanitary napkin) Monday morning, many distasteful Walmart articles kept popping up.

Walmart's Website Features a Section of 'Fat Girl Costumes'

Market Report: Walmart Features Horrifying Selection of “Fat Girl” Costumes

Seemly it was up for a few days before Monday. Twitter was abuzz about it even days after.

So, I decided to look myself. Because surely not Walmart being gross in labeling the Plus Size. Then I saw it with my own eyes.*sigh*. Walmart had to get their first "Plus Size Hate" strike. I had to join Twitter and tweet along. 45 minutes later after I saw the section, it disappeared from the website. 

Walmart apologizes for 'fat girl' costumes

Here is an article about the apology HERE.  It is disgraceful that it was on the website. Like I said before in a previous BLOG, the plus size can take there money somewhere else. If Walmart keeps this up, it will be on my boycott list that already includes its competitor, Target and Old Navy, As much money I give Walmart... Get it together Walmart!!!

I'm going to say because it is Halloween, somebody in the web developing department or some hackers thought it would be a laughable Trick or Treat joke. I mean, It's Halloween in America where blackface and deadly diseases an acceptable costume. So making fun of fatties is okay. Be it Halloween or not, fat people are fair game to joke about anyway. Oh it's wrong to make fun of  anyone because of their age, race, creed, gender, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, marital status or socioeconomic status. Someone's body type or weight is a free for all for humor and taunts, always. Not funny, jerkwad!!! I hope all involved who thought it was okay for it to be on the website lose their jobs.

Even with that gross mishap, it is still Halloween time. I've been invited to a Halloween theme revue & a Halloween party by sister's friend whose birthday is that day. For safety sake I'm not going to the Halloween revue. Some revuer grab me from behind and scare me and get punched in the costume shorts. Plus all the Tootsie Roll & Sucker references will get old real quick. I do wonder, If Revuers wear costumes on Regular revue nights, Do they wear their regular clothes on stage for Halloween? LoL But I might go to the party.

I plan on being a cowgirl with lollipop stained lips.
You know, I look like I've been eating candy all night. LoL If not I'll pass out candy to the few trick or treaters we have until 8pm and then I'll watch the 1986 classic, "The Worst Witch" (the clip above) and anything else Halloween (fun, non-scary) related. 

Are any of my readers celebrating Halloween (or All Saints Eve, Neewollah, Hallelujah Night, Harvest Night)? How are you doing so? Let me know in the comments.

Well if I don't talk to you on October 31st, Happy Halloween!!!

Always, Talking to You in Adult Terms
