I Will Never Support These Stores!
Sorry, Blockbuster. I will never rent The Brave Little Toaster from you ever again. Yeah.
Blockbuster
I don’t know if it’s really true that Blockbuster cuts out certain “improper” scenes from its collections, but I do know that they use a lot of their profits to fund certain organizations that I do not agree with. Plus, come on, kids! Support your local video stores.
This is my new favorite San Francisco video store. Not only did I find the obscure documentary I was looking for, but the clerk with the sparkly nails called me a very odd cab, which was actually a white Corolla driven by some random Chinese man. Lovely!

Olive Garden
Please, Uncle Dennis! Stop buying me gift certificates to Olive Garden for Christmas. I just can’t do it anymore.
Red Lobster
I’d eat at Denny’s 100 times before eating at Red Lobster. Unless my grandpa wanted me to go, since it’s his favorite place. The first and only time I ever went there I definitely found a dead fly on my biscuit plate.
GlamShots
Hey, parents! Here’s an idea: Why don’t you book a “GlamShot” birthday party for your little girl, so you can totally show her that boys will only like her if she learns how to tease her hair.
Radio Shack
I outlined the exact reason in greater detail in this guide, but to sum it up, The Shack is overwhelmingly staffed with high school dropouts who feel like they’re the elitists of the electronics industry.
McCrappy Place
Okay, I’m sick of “Lovin’ it!” We know it makes us fat, the lattes are crap, and your commercials suck! Please, go away McDonald’s!
Starbucks
Get over yourself, Starbucks! You think because you have pink thermoses and CD compilations with Diana Krall on that I’m going to get sucked in? I don’t I’ve been in a Starbucks since I was sleep deprived in the middle of nowhere Indiana. This one’s too obvious.
Here’s some other bad stuff that happens when you go to Indiana.
Trattoria Caterina
Because they totally fired me back when I was 19. I swear this place is run by the Greek mafia. I probably have a hit out on me right now due to writing this.
Yeah, I guess I kind of quit as soon as I realized they were about to fire me.
Apparently we can’t even BARGAIN at the good old GC anymore. Now this place is REALLY not worth it.
Walmart - This place makes me feel slimey
We successfully kept Walmart out of our old neighborhood. I hope these folks were successful as well.
I don’t get why people like to shop here, yuck.
DSW Shoe Warehouse
I used to have breakdowns in this store and therefore cannot support them. Combine the large assortment of shoes that are only moderately organized/categorized + BRIGHT lights + general bigness freaks me out.
