I wonder how many of those beautiful girls have shopped at Wal-Mart, but I digress. Still, I have seen many unattractive people at college. There is nothing magical about an academic institution that suddenly makes people beautiful.

Your interpretation, because I never said (or insinuate) anything about magic.

While some folks can shop at a Wal-Mart twice a year, others can do it twice a week.

*sigh* I know that.

Everything is a matter of proportion (I thought it was obvious): I'm not saying every woman in a Wal-Mart look like sluts and every woman in college are astonishing beauties.

All what I'm saying is that I miss college where I've met a lot of great women.

Unfortunately, I cannot say that much with Wal-Mart.

Then perhaps you should have said that rather than engage in hyperbole. Academic institutions, and those who work at and attend them, are freqently labeled as elitist by detractors. This stereotype, while false, is greatly aided by the type of comments made in this thread.
