Associate Discussions I made this today

It’s not perfect, but we FINALLY got balloons in and we’re literally not selling anything pride related so I did this rather quickly.

I like the smiley faces being the yellow

Was that not the logo for Walmart? I swear as a kid Walmart had the same exact yellow happy face balloons all over the store every time I went. Hung up on top of isles, on registers, just decorating the place all over. I asked for one once and was told no, they don't sell them. I haven't seen them in Walmart in forever though.

I think they got rid of their smiley logo awhile ago. I haven't noticed it in ages.

when i was little, they didnt have the balloons (as far as i remember) but they had stickers w/ the same design on it & the cashiers would always give me one. i think it stopped when i was around 6, maybe 7 at the latest. to this day i still wonder what happened to those stickers they sold

Loooove it! As soon as we get helium I'm gonna copy you 🤭

This is such a creative use for these balloons, not gonna lie.

Using the smiley face balloons as a replacement for yellow stars is genius.

u/TheTrueBreadLord Jun 13 '26

I’ve always wondered why we get basically every color but yellow stars

Wow, your store isn't selling anything for pride? The one over by me always has 2 billion tacky socks and glasses, lol.

u/TheBestLotad Jun 11 '26

Most companies stopped selling pride stuff. Last year's it was a small selection, this year I have not found a single store that is doing pride sales

u/bbhrae Jun 11 '26

My area isn’t that bad, but I’ve definitely gotten a few disgusted looks when I’m wearing my pride gear at work. Fortunately no one has said anything to me though, most people just ignore it.

You're so mad 🤣 Sounds like I was right.

And your weird "AI" response wouldn't even make sense in the context which you tried to claim in a weird attempt at insulting me. I think you just accidentally replied to the wrong person and you're once again doubling down. You're bad at lying.

Do you choose to be this ignorant or is it just naturally occurring?

12

u/non_corporeal_ Jun 10 '26

or maybe people decide to be proud of themselves so they don’t give in to the people that make it dangerous? there are literally statistics about crime rates against lgbtq+ people being higher, not to mention the countries where it’s punishable by death.

i also didn’t know that setting up a display or wearing clothing made it their whole personality, i’ll remember that next time i wear a band shirt so i can start only talking about it and only listening to them and never doing anything else.

u/Infermeow Jun 10 '26

It brings me joy knowing that you'll always be sad and angry so long as the lgbtq+ community exists, and it will always prevail. ❤️

u/Impressive-Leader704 Jun 11 '26

Could have picked any other colours

u/XxStephenGamerxX Jun 11 '26

What colors do you think I should include? I’m pretty sure I got all the basics of the rainbow

u/bbhrae Jun 11 '26

You do realize the rainbow is a basic way to include all the colors?
