Listen up, all you stuck up FAKES born with SILVER SPOONS in your MOUTHS! You think you can look down your NOSES at me, just because I have to WORK for a living. So maybe I’m not an ART expert! Maybe I don’t UNDERSTAND your FASHION and your HOLIER THAN THOU attitudes. Sorry, but I don’t have a TRUST FUND from DADDY! So what I SHOP at BED, BATH AND BEYOND; I don’t need your HIGH-FALUTIN’ 3 FIGURE THREAD COUNTS. Anyway, I’m sick of YOU thinking that YOU’RE better than ME. —BLUE COLLAR FOR LIFE

3 figure thread counts? I hope you mean 600+
You shop at bed bath and beyond? That shit aint cheap, you must have money. What’s wrong with walmart?
Who cares if someone has money from dad, shouldn’t they take it? If you make shit loads of money would your kids get their part or would you donate to charity.
I think I know.
I call fake.
Horray FOR emphasizing random WORDS!
Don’t let the bastards get you down!
Smash their art. Burn their thread counts. Confiscate their silver spoons and seize their trust funds.
Oops. Sorry. I think I jumped the gun.
Have we started the revolution yet?
Maybe they are better than you

I found a hidden message:
Fakes silver spoons mouths noses work art understand fashion holier than thou trust fund daddy shop bed bath and beyong high-falutin’ three-figure thread counts you you’re me.
Wait, that doesn’t make sense. If you’re not going to incorporate fun secret messages, what’s the point of using random capitalized words?
Disappointed.
you tell em o.p., they need to know that the underclass keep their sorry asses in all that money they have. without the peons doing their dirty work, they would be living in garbage filled homes and such. remember folks, for every millionaire out there, there are/is some poor schmuck that clean away their crap. without the peons, they would be more useless that they already are. POWER TO THE LITTLE PEOPLE.
This bitch is funny, but I call bullshit because if halifax has a Bed Bath & Beyond, you can bet it isn’t the poor people shopping there. It’s almost as expensive as Pottery Barn, which would be in halifax if there were enough people that could afford to shop there. ‘Poor’ people don’t shop at Bed Bath & Beyond unless maybe they’re poor the people of Dubai.
I hate to be picky, but “blue collar” doesn’t mean service sector or working in an office. You may be salt of the earth, but unless you’re welding steel or moving earth with a bulldozer or fixing cars you’re probably not blue collar.
Just sayin’.
Like Cangood said, Bed Bath and Beyond? Where do *you* think the elite around here buy their guestroom linen, if not at BB&B? Us real proles are happy with Zeller’s.
If I could afford Bed, Bath & Beyond, I’d consider myself “rich”. I shop at Sears Outlet for beddings. 3 digit thread count sheets at regular folks’ price levels.
If I had a lot of money, regardless of source, I’d be doing all those things too.
Except maybe the art thing. My partner’s parents have a terrible picture they bought in Halifax of a kid being fed a strawberry. Strawberry is practically being shoved up the kid’s mouth. They love it, think it has meaning and value. I cringe every time I see it.
@ Canagook: Walmart doesn’t really support our economy much, so cheap yes, but maybe best to be avoided if possible.
Op, if you can even afford to by bedding you are doing better then me. My high point financially today was being able to by bleach to clean my house with:S
Bed Bath and Beyond?? Is that in Halifax? I shop at walmart when I can actually afford to shop… it took me months to be able to afford my comforter.
you just need a good man to keep you warm on those chilly night, p.f., i’m ready.
No one can make you feel inadequate without your permission. Get over it – these people exist – I’d rather laugh at their overblown demeanor than take it personally.
“Well, um, actually a pretty nice little Saturday, we’re going to go to Home Depot. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don’t know, I don’t know if we’ll have enough time!”

600-thread count is so soft 🙂
Do they even make double-digit thread counts?

although i have heard anything over 380 or so is a farce. i don’t know enough about it to explain why though.
My 400 thread count can withstand cat nails.
Halifax needs an Ikea! Ikea’s fuckin’ awesome. Love the cheap food ($1 Swedish meatballs, yuuummmmm) and spending all day at the one in South Edmonton Common. Their 60 square metre homes are especially sweet.
Come on Halifax, get with the program! Time for an Ikea… again, since apparently we had one in the 1980s but it didn’t work out.
B B and Beyond does have some unique and tasteful Christmas stuff, I did splurge and am pleased with the purchases. I couldn’t afford most of their stuff, but you can look for nowt.
q: halifax has nothing to do with it. we used to have an ikea in dartmouth when i was a kid. the ball room was awesome. but ikea left of their own accord and won’t come back until the market is bigger – i’m not sure of the numbers – but i’ve heard they want a potential market of a million. which likely means we won’t see another ikea in my lifetime… sad, i know.
Ikea! Ikea! Ikea!
I love that people have no clue they are just shopping themselves out of their own jobs when they are in walmart and costco and the rest of the big box shitholes. The US is now learning this the hard way and has to completely devalue their dollar to get out of the mess and bring back some sort of manufacturing sector. Darwin help us when we start to lost the thousands of energy sector jobs as we go away from oil and have nothing to fall back on because everything else is just a shell office and all the work actually happening in China.
You shop at Bed Bath and Beyond….I think that says it all.
Uhh…. when people save money by shopping at Walmart or Cost-co, that means they have money to purchase other goods and services.. When you choose to patronize an expensive, but local retailer, your money ends up in his/her pocket….
Ok I can understand the OP being pissed about trust fund babies who think they’re better… but the Bed Bath and Beyond thing is just throwing me off. Also, I don’t have kids yet, but I recall my dad saying one time that if he had the money he’d give me anything I wanted. At the time I just wanted to be able to pay tuition and buy groceries, not demanding he buy me a luxury sports car or anything. But if he had money, and I think I would feel the same way, he would want his kids to have as many opportunities as they could. And for the record, you don’t have to be rich to be knowledgeable about art, there are plenty of affordable galleries to visit.
Yeah I think OP needs to calm the fuck down.
Ok that was a bit harsh, let me rephrase that. “I think OP needs to calm the hell down and stop caring about what other people think.” There, that’s better. 🙂
