Xenalyte was defending Wal-Mart in her post, while pointing out that, in her experience, shopping Wal-Mart was not pleasant. That isn't bashing. Her post was constructive and useful. I do wish I could say the same about the one to which I am responding.
said Xenalyte, "Not that I like Wal-Mart, mind you. I'd sooner stick needles in my eyes than shop there. Down here in Houston, Wal-Marts are dirty, cluttered, loud, and generally zoolike."
Yes, quite constructive and useful. Thank you for pointing out that my definitions of bashing, constructive, and useful are actually opposite of what I've thought all along. /sarcasm
