We have all had to make that crucial decision in life? "Where do I shop? Walmart or Target?" There's only one right answer to that question. Walmart.... GOTCHYA. I'm not one of those freaks. Target is your one-stop shop, and to speak the name Walmart out loud should be considered blasphemy.

1. The Quality

Target carries higher quality products in certain departments such as kitchenware, furniture, and meat. The kitchenware at Target is not only more durable and of a higher quality, but many times they also carry things in different colors. The same goes for the furniture. Walmart, overall, has good food for good prices, this is true. However, the quality of meat at the deli is atrocious.

2. Cleanliness

It's not unusual to see something- let's just say- not as it should be. There might be messes, disorganization, and dirty bathrooms in a Walmart. Many times, it is not kept to the standards that it should be. Perhaps they leave all their cleaning for the end of the night rather than doing it throughout the day? We may never know. The employees at Target are always hard at work fixing up the story to be both clean and aesthetically pleasing.

3. Wider Isles

If you have ever been to Walmart, there is a strict 2 lane policy when it comes to the isles. There is no wiggle room to that rule whatsoever. It is a whole new kind of traffic jam. On the upside, giving your child the shopping cart will give them some valuable lessons in the rules of the road. Steering, navigating, and trying not to hit anyone is good practice for them.

4. Employees

The employees at Target are much more polite and ready to help. They smile at you and are eager to help. When you go to Walmart, making eye contact and smiling at the greeter will result in awkward side eye and no response at all. The greeters are surprised when you actually say hello back to them, and they don't know what to do next!

5. The Clientele

All I'm saying is: you never see someone wearing fuzzy pink slippers and a superhero cape doing their weekly grocery shopping in Target. It's no mystery that the creeps come out to Walmart, especially at night.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
