Cheap, Cheap! Fun, Fun!

There’s only one thing I miss about my exile to St. Louis earlier this year:
The link above is to a commercial for a chain of stores in Missouri called Dirt Cheap. Plain and simple - they sold alcohol and cigarettes for, well, dirt cheap. Not only could you get some good Captain Morgan there for about 3/4 the price you’d pay out here - but it even called itself “the last refuge for the persocuted smoker”. AND - they had their OWN brand of generic beer. $3.99 for a six pack. I kid you not. Future Jefferson County Prosecutors would agree.
The best thing about this is that this commercial would not go over too well in our avocado-consuming society. “The more she drinks, the better you look”. I love commercials that promote date rape.

Where the hell have you been? your mother and I have been sick with worry.
I have never seen TV in MO but I have driven through it. Porno stores at every off ramp and they are easy to find because at each exit with a porn mart there is a giant billboard put up by Christian groups that basically say “don’t exit here or else you’ll get porn”.
