It’s weird to think that today, there are still opportunities to create mythology. As evidenced by these shocking Walmart photos, that’s what regulars of the place almost are—mythological wonders you won't encounter anywhere else.
It makes you wonder, if we can create such unexplainable phenomena in this day and age, what happened on Earth in ancient history? Was there a Walmart equivalent where all the mythological creatures were born, and we greatly misunderstood their purpose? We’ll never know.
While you can't know the backstory of these Walmart pics, some people might be having a bad day, living out a challenge, or not caring enough about the world. We encourage you to have an open mind and a good time in this article, as it’s not every day you see sights like these. They are almost like Renaissance paintings—magnificent in their way, pictures without context that capture your attention in an instant,
So take a trip between the long aisles of adventures of Walmart shoppers and explore the world of the unusual. Share this article with your friends and family, and don't keep it to yourself!

Who Are the People of Walmart?
The term “people of Walmart” is often used humorously to describe the diverse and exciting characters one might encounter while visiting Walmart. It’s a lighthearted way of acknowledging the diversity of our community, highlighting that all Walmart shoppers are welcome, regardless of their style or appearance.
What Can You Expect While at Walmart?
You never know what you will find when you visit a Walmart. While you probably go armed with a grocery list or one specific item you need, the stores have everything. The massive stores are full of produce, frozen foods, snacks, cleaning supplies, shoes, clothing, you name it.
If you’re not from the United States, the idea of a store housing almost everything under the same roof might overwhelm you. And let us just say it sure can be overwhelming. The layout isn't always the same, so if you go to a new Walmart, you can easily wander the aisles frustrated, unable to find what you need for 20+ minutes.
But while you pace around the store searching desperately for the hand soap that seems to have vanished out of thin air, Walmart is a master at providing one more thing: entertainment in the form of humans doing human things.
Why is It Only Walmart That Attracts Such a Diverse Crowd?
When it comes to why Walmart attracts such an eclectic crowd, we have a few theories. First, Walmart is the largest retailer in the United States and the second largest retailer globally. Because of this, it attracts massive crowds every day.
Everybody knows the Walmart name, and almost all Americans end up there at one point or another. It’s not the fanciest grocery retailer, so it is possible to avoid it, especially in cities like Los Angeles, where local chains far outnumber it. But with an average of 37 million people entering Walmart stores every week, there are bound to be some interesting characters and pictures of a lot happening around them.
And with Walmart’s reputation, it is one of the few places where you wouldn’t feel the need to change out of your sweatpants or make sure your hair looks alright before going. Walmart is a “come as you are” store, which is beautiful. And it breeds the perfect environment for capturing interesting “People of Walmart.”
What Kind of People Visit Walmart?
Many Walmart stores are open until late at night or even 24 hours a day, making the crowd more interesting. Teenagers and college kids might show up after a party for some late-night munchies, or people who have not slept in days might feel that 5 a.m. is the perfect time to go grocery shopping in their robes. Such a diverse crowd is guaranteed to bring us tons of confusing, no-context images.
We’re all for running errands outside peak hours to avoid crowds, but being open all night can open stores to a vast clientele. A great thing about this is that almost all Walmart stores allow overnight parking for free.
Free parking can be tricky in the US for homeless individuals living out of their cars or travelers moving through the country by van, but Walmart always comes through. This might be part of why the customers are so interested, but it’s a lifesaver for individuals in desperate situations who just need a place to park overnight.
Took the words right out of my mouth. Plus doesn't grandpa look like an old Peter Griffin?!
Load More Replies...Aren't those customized and crazy expensive? Very disturbing that he chose such a young looking doll
What does he do to that doll??!!!?? Is anyone else concerned that the doll looks like a 12 yo?
Maybe it's me, but this smells like a person with a taste for young girls. Now I'm not saying he's a pedophile, but he sure comes over like one. I wouldn't want my kids anywhere near this man, he's got a very unpleasant vibe...
The man looks like he hates having his picture taken and the little boy is staring at her like what is happening? We are all wondering...
You know he's far gone when taking this thing to the store seems like a regular, normal idea
Is it just me, or does the doll's facial features disturbingly resemble that kid's?
The profile pic is meant to be a play on the actual Walmart smiley logo but with a frown instead of a smile. It's the same pic in #14. It's the logo for People of Walmart.

Why are old farts so f*****g gross?? Even if this is a rubber doll, it still send so many devastatingly wrong messages, and the old f*****g fart doesn't even seem to understand that!!! IF you are going to send the message that young beautiful girls should be raped by depraved sexually deviant old farts, then keep the doll at home and do it there! That boy will have this image in his head for the rest of his life!
There's a sex shop near me that has a bunch of those in glass cases. They're horrifying. The legs are all out of proportion, and their toes have little 'bones' in them that lock at any random odd angle. They look like the corpses of aliens.
Did that dirty old Fokker buy an underage sex doll? I'd tip him out his wheelchair
What age does a sex doll have to be?

Well, if this is what it takes to keep him from messing with a live child . . . .
I also believe when someone buys one of those the buyer has to pick out her clothes. This gentlemen chose this as her outfit. I don't know this makes it even more weird. He purposefully carried from house to car, seatbelt, drove across town, took her out, freshened her up, waddled up to a scooter, got settled and then purposefully put her on his lap. That's a lot of purposeful weird s**t.
This is sick on many, many levels. Hope the pedo. Police have their eyes on this guy.
Oh this is fine, but when I bring a giant silicone wie- you know what, never mind.
It gets lonely on those ships at sea for six months out of the year. Liberty and R&R ain't what they used to be.
I'm not so concerned by the fact that she's fake, rather than the fact she looks about 14.
Um think ,this is border line pedophilia the doll looks like a,child. I hope something less creepy is going on here like mabe the boy actually likes dolls and manged to obtain the doll unknowingly what it really is ment for and for some reason refused to go into the store with out it.... umm otherwise someone should keep a close eye on that man .
They have dolls that look older. Some of them are even cheaper than the child dolls. I went down a real doll hole a while ago to see how much they are and yea.. it's a whole world of weird. Replacement parts, textured parts, special soaps and lubes. I remember one company purposely only made older dolls and by older I mean 18 years old. Some guys will say they like it for the artistry....
The gray haired guy's sidelong glance gave me the bejeebers. Run, Barbie!
safe sex nostalgy and sweet memories when he was stationed in Philippines
By the look on grandson's face, I don't think he cares she's fake or not.
Either that or the grandkid wants to know if he can "play with the dollie" too.
The sad thing is, for the right amount of money he could actually have a real sugar baby
I've seen the plastic 'newborn' babies in strollers and in the shopping carts...
yeah, but at least those are bought by people who simply wish they could have a child rather than pervy old men who want to have sex with a custom-made child-sized baby-faced doll with massive breasts...

$52 spent at Walmart. $8,500 for a necessary drip. Wait, I know what's wrong with this pic.

If you feel the need to comment of people less fortunate than you it’s probably a bad sign
BoredPanda censors it’s users (a**e, a*s, s**t, are all censored) , yet is perfectly fine posting unsolicited photos of some people (including kids) who are likely suffering mental health problems. This thread isn’t funny— it’s damned depressing. I have no idea what the hell is happening to BoredPanda anymore.

300 million people, largest discount retailer, 20 year old pics - do the math.
Omg, I have two walmart stories. 1. Dude in front of the lady in front of us in the receipt check line. Unbuckled his belt, pulled his pants down, bent over and showed us his butt hole. 2. Drunk guy in the store, we reported him went on our shopping. Then, me and my sister were coming back from the bathroom and saw him in a checkput line with people behind him trying to help him stay up. Me and my sister thought that was his family. We get out of the store with our groceries and two men are on the sidewalk about to cross the lityle pharmacy drive through. We parked next to that. They ask is what our car looks like, we tell them, and they say a man is leaning on it. While drunk. There is a dirty hand print on our hood. The police come, my mom and the men talked with them and then we went home!
The Walmart in my home town was referred to as "Ghetto Walmart". It was a run down old building with an ugly green awning and Walmart painted on it in generic block lettering. I remember it fondly until it was torn down and rebuilt in the early 2000s. I think it was featured on People of Walmart's website at one point.
I'll drive past every Walmart in town to shop at Target. Target is basically Walmart without the wierdos.
