I'll continue to shop at Lowe's.

I saw the show last night on you tube for the first time ever. And it will be the last time.
They lost me at the dude praying in shorts.

Now I'm far from home
Spending time alone
It's time to set my demons free
Been put to the test
My mind laid to rest
I'm on a psycho holiday

The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.

Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because

1. You're now several kilometres away; and

2. You've got their shoes.

I bet Muslims probably shop most at the hardware store that is the closest to their house.

But I bet Lowes lost more of the self-righteous Liberal and Muslim market than they retained of the self-righteous redneck market.

On the Daily Show they had a representative of Lowes saying they did it to avoid controversy. Someone in Lowes marketing department is a moron.

This is so much bullshit. Just some lame interest group claiming to represent "Christianity" trying to throw their non-existent weight around.

If drywall is 25cents a square cheaper at Lowe's Muslim remodelers will line up.
10 years ago the USA had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope, and Johnny Cash. Now we have no Jobs, no Hope, and no Cash.

Going to have to disagree with anyone saying that Little Mosque on the Prairie is funny, but it does exist certainly. And I indirectly help pay for it, so I'm glad people like it.


Lowe's screwed up. Always do nothing in this circumstances. Any action you take ads fuel to the fire. WalMart is smarter in this regard, they just keep their mouths shut. The critics of the reality show sounded like complete retards to me, but the show itself looked boring and terrible, so... win-win?

A big surprise to me when I first arrived in the US was the homogeneity and the cultural pressure to conform.

Not as intense as, say, Japan, but still surprisingly strong. At least to me given my preconceptions.

mass production / mass consumption

The cog that doesn't fit gets thrown in the scrap pile.

It's our culture now. The rugged individualism of the frontier is long gone. It died with the buffalo.

All I was saying about All American Muslim and Little Mosque on the Prairie was that I didn't find them entertaining shows. My criticism of them is in no way political or philosophical. Plus, everyone would agree that most TV shows are pretty bad.
