But... lots of people show disrespect for Internet Tough Guys. I, for example, feel and show no respect toward you. Indeed I am actively dissing you, if I may use that word -- sneering at you, and doing it through the base and scurrilous medium of the Internet to boot. As an ITG, this must happen to you often.

Does that mean you get to shoot me?

Right. So the 'respect' thing is really of questionable relevance. Also, you smell and your tie looks stupid.

People who worry about clothing going 'out of style' in two years are probably also less discerning when it comes to the quality that would make clothing last for more than two years.

Wal-mart is selling to people who combine these two features -- people who will put up with cheap crap but are very attentive to 'fashion' (in the Wal-mart sense!) trends.

I must admit I hadn't thought this demographic had much of a voice on Slashdot but I guess I was mistaken :)
