What products-companies-stores do you " boycott" ?

I don't shop at Wal-Mart mostly for their business practices but also because (as someone mentioned earlier) of the depressing scenes contained within. Not only does it always seem to be crazy busy there, but it resembles more of a cattle auction meet than a respectable retail outlet. It's dirty, clustered, it's just a mess of an establishment. But their prices, they are so low!

They also have those fat scooters for the morbidly obese to tool around in. It's like encouraging people who are already obese to continue to go hog wild because "I can just go to Wal-Mart and get me on one of those there scooters and I won't have to budge an inch!"

My Dad and I joked that they should have an everything-in-one Wal-Mart that includes a Wal-Morgue and Wal-Homes so people will never have to leave their little Wal-world.

Call me insensitive, but only in the US of A, my friend.

Blockbuster (aka Cockbuster)- The handful of times I've rented from them, the discs are so scratched that it looks like they made it through about 100 frat parties, and the brothers wiped their ass on every single one. That and they have a crap selection and way of organizing their movies.

H & R Block (aka H & R Cockblocker)- Thanks, considering that I probably won't be getting any money back from the state and maybe just a few hundred from federal, I want your fine establishment to take 50% of what I would be getting back to do my taxes. I made that mistake once and I'll never do it again! I'm a learned man now, I can do my taxes myself!

I ask because the opinions of socially conscious people toward AA tend to vary quite a lot. Charney's a sleazy character in a lot of ways, but he does plenty of things right too.


It's Charney for me. The guy has branded himself on having exceedingly high ethical standards for his factory workers but his corporate environment sounds intolerable. Working for jerk-offs is bad enough--but the maybe having to see the boss jerk-off is fucked.
