(STILL glad that I don't shop!)

a New Yorker, moving to DC, shopping like a 'real person' in Virginia!

Powerful, very democratic women - I love it!

I don't like Hillary, but as an older woman I can't help remembering the days when talking about a female Presidential candidate and female Supreme would have had people thinking you were demented.

Huma recently chopped her hair to chin length. I hope she gets rid of the husband too!

but the profile looks like her and maybe she did cut her hair or it's actually put up.

No insult, just observation. Can't imagine Scalia in T-shirt, jeans, sneakers & baseball cap.

Very cool pic, that. Wish they'd come by Costco here in Goleta.

Sounded kind of like a put-down.

My take of that pic is that what the Justice is wearing would pass for formal wear in some Walmarts, but that's JMO...

I think she looks fine, perfect clothing for rummaging around a warehouse store.

that isn't an insult to anyone.

I don't know if it's serendipitous or what, but it's cropping up a lot.

Maybe just something in the air...like pollen? Who knows?

There's no People of Costco counterpart for a reason, but hey, work that faux outrage vibe!

It's in fashion of late!

on appearance are not people I respect.

I don't have ANY problem with her clothing selection--do you?

If your answer is NO, then get off my ass.

from the Ministry of Silly Talks?

LOL

Photoshop skillz.

and treat them fairly, and provide an advancement track.

They also are supportive of progressive candidates.

I don't always tell people about that little tidbit--I know a wingnutter who LOVES Costco, and boasts about all the bargains he gets there to anyone who will listen. He's insufferable, he buys high ticket items too--computers for the kids, tires for the car, always the most expensive thing...boast, boast, boast!!!

I just love the fact that even a small percentage of the dough he spends there is going to Democratic candidates!

At least she has a nice big flag for Flag Day.

It has nothing to do with "The Pentagon" save that it's named after something that isn't terribly far away.



Welcome to DU, I guess.

The Pentagon is a five sided building in Arlington VA.

Pentagon City is where the Hilton, the Mall, the Costco, and a really cool movie theater and eateries are.

I'm sure the Fashion Centre is a hotbed of warmongers....

Washington Monthly clickbait from nearly ten years ago is not "proof" of anything.

The Fashion Centre is a mall not terribly far from the Pentagon. It's a good walk if you are carrying bags of purchased goodies.



You can get a great falafel sandwich in the food court--surely that must mean that the mujehadeen meet there on a regular basis...

They're not all that far from one another, but they are entirely different enterprises. You are not getting into the Pentagon without military ID or a Common Access Card (CAC).

You can get into the Fashion Centre on your own two legs. Bring money, there's lots to buy there--or you could just ride the escalators all day!

Really, though ... it's ok, this is amusing.

And I'm not talking about the mall, either!



But do go on!

This obviously means a great deal to you.

Unintentionally so...but hilarious nonetheless.

I'd love to see a Swamp Rat style photoshop with missiles pointing out of the Hilton, and rocket launchers on the roof of the Fashion Centre! Maybe a team of sharpshooters at the ready, guns pointing outward from the parking garage next door!

Be. Very. Afraid!

That person was about as toxic as it gets.

Give 'em enough rope....

Thanks MIRT! You guys do great work!!!

this and then that thread on epilepsy .

btw, i read that this was the busiest costco in the country . i'm pretty sure that wouldn't be the case if it was only open the those in the military .

it's like debating the wingnuts who are insisting sotomayor showing up at the book signing is part of some large conspiracy .

I had some great bosses, and I had some complete jerks who could only feel important if they were jerking the chains of subordinates. I took great delight, with reasoned and painfully measured discourse, in denying them the pleasure! It became my goal, as I moved up in rank, to teach subordinates how to take shit and dish it back without raising the temperature. Hang in there long enough, and the person doing the goading and baiting WILL look like an ass, and it's out there for everyone to see.

And there's a commissary and AAFEES at Belvoir that is the bee's knees...they do case lot sales at the commissary on a regular basis. I used to shop there all the time when I lived in the area.

I agree with you that there are many occasions when the debates on this forum are completely out of ... well ... RIGHT field! And in some cases, obvious is ever so obvious!

I thought Sonia looked swell in her shopping ensemble--I really wonder what else she should have worn to shop at Costco--sequins and a tiara...maybe a feather boa and kitten heels? I mean, jeez...it's a warehouse!

The Costco as a MIC industry talk was really fucking bizarre. Glad I didn't waste my time responding to mudy waters on my phone.

Take a topic that is obliquely related to the post--like in this case, the location of the COSTCO being not too horribly far from the Pentagon and being sited in Pentagon City, and then drumming up a load of horseshit to distract from any conversation about the former SECSTATE and her book tour, and the well wishers, and the four hour line of customers, etc. Get anal and obsessive about the matter, be snarky, jerky and borderline crazy...lather, rinse, repeat.

Fortunately, this person hadn't met the MIRT cutoff and got the boot. I've seen others that go on and on and on and the admins have to step in. I think maybe the admins ought to consider kicking up the probationary period, doubling it or even tripling it. Make the trolls work a little harder in the run up to election season!

It seems almost coordinated. Things that make ya go hmmm!

It's as plain as the nose on your face.

LOL~!

Great photos, sufrommich.

John Lewis also showed up. I guess now they are both going to be bashed.

They shook Hillary's hand? But, but, we don't like her.
