Members Lucky Posted May 1, 2011 Members Posted May 1, 2011 When you are in line at the grocery, there is usually no shortage of magazines available for you to peruse during your wait. Most likely though you wouldn't be caught dead buying one of them. We do like them though. If you say no, then consider the headlines from the latest gossip rag: Victoria Beckham's Hat Obama prooves citizenship Friday's Trivia test Name the tv show associted with each place Today's Trivia Contest Day 3 Royal Wedding Gifts Royal Wedding in 60 Seconds What's your royal wedding guest name?

Members RA1 Posted May 1, 2011 Members Posted May 1, 2011 What line? I shop at a grocery store at least 3 times a week. I like to eat fresh as often as possible which means farmer's markets in warm weather. But I don't remember when there was more than one person in front of me and that person was not checking out 50,000 items. However, I get your point. We are all voyeurs in one way or another, aren't we? Best regards, RA1 Quote
Members axiom2001 Posted May 1, 2011 Members Posted May 1, 2011 I, too, rarely have to wait in lines at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. I don't like to go to grocery stores, too much anyway; thus I try to stick to the two aforementioned venues or go to a Safeway where there is a modicum of ambience!!! Sorry if I sound snobby and/or pretentious. I'm far from either! But when I perused your list of titles, I just had to shake my head as I have done infrequently in a few lines at some other major supermarkets!!!!! Quote
Members MsGuy Posted May 1, 2011 Members Posted May 1, 2011 Gosh, Lucky, reading the WSJ takes a couple of hours, I blow through my weekly copy of The Economist in a day or so and Foreign Affairs only arrives once every two months. A little fluff for filler makes the time past faster. I guess I could dig the old hair shirt out of storage. Maybe that might keep my mind on the serious stuff. Quote

You seem to be missing the fact that I included myself above. We do like these topics, or they wouldn't be here. Now about that college semen problem... Quote
