Walmart Pulls "Credit Card" Panties
Walmart has pulled the prostitution panties, according to Fox News.
The panties, which were sold in the juniors department, seemed to suggest that girls don't need money, they just need a sugar daddy -- in this case Santa Claus.Oh my, we didn't know about the Santa part. Gross! Do not be that friendly with Santa! Milk and cookies is all you should be giving him, young lady. Who knew Santa was such a perv?The hipster briefs -- carrying the slogan "Who needs credit cards ..." on the front and "When you have Santa" on the derriere -- caused an uproar among parents, who called for the $2.96 drawers to be pulled off the racks.
"We have directed our stores to remove this merchandise from our shelves," Linda Brown Blakely, a spokeswoman for Wal-Mart, told FOXNews.com Wednesday.
Since Walmart has chosen to pull these panties from their shelves, we can only assume that a tsunami of pantie sighting pictures will soon be washing up on the shores of our inbox. (That sounds really dirty, doesn't it?)

*sings* I saw mommy- uh... my little sister kissi... umm... f****** santa claus underneath the mistletoe last night.
If it was not bad enough...
They dont even LOOK like they would be Christmas themed...
@joopiter: I'm sure this will help the site get through the post-holiday news slump. I may go snap a picture or two this weekend to see if they are still around just to spite y'all.
I found the problem - they aren't taking this seriously!
"Since Walmart has chosen to pull these panties from their shelves, we can only assume that a tsunami of pantie sighting pictures will soon be washing up on the shores of our inbox. (That sounds really dirty, doesn't it?)"
Can we hold a contest for the best excuse given to a security guard or cop about the reason for taking pictures in the juniors undergarments section of a walmart?
You should have titled this story
"Wal-Mart Pulls Down Panties"
Is this going to be like the Nazi T-Shirt thing where every other story is about how the Walmart in ANYTOWN still has them on the shelf? I hope not.
This underwear offends me not nearly as much as the people who would actually purchase something so tacky.
Santa be pimpin.
What's really messed up is that Wal-Mart sells clothes promoting the whoring of our teens (these undies, the entire MK&A line)and R-rated movies, but no explicit-lyric CDs?
"So if you want to kill, cuss, or fuck, you can do it in our clothes and in our movies, but you have to listen to good clean wholesome music while you do it."
please forward those pix to me (i'm assuming of course, the young ladies modeling them will be at least 18)
Honestly, having the Santa bit on the back actually makes it a little better. Before it made it sound like you don't need credit cards if you have, um, you know, whatever it is that is under those panties. It's still bad, but it was way worse!
I WILL go tomorrow and try to find a pair of these.
@SaveMeJeebus: What we need are panties with an obscure Nazi design promoting prostitution, made with lead paint and tainted meat, marked with a "sale" sign indicating a price increase. The thing will be too powerful to pull from shelves.
Are those little dots on the edges crabs?
@SPINACHDIP: The ideal outfit (for a woman of course) is those panties with the Nazi t-shirt!
The implied prostitution I can handle, it's the confusing grammar that I can't stand.
At first I was like "who cares," but then I got to the part where you mention they were in the juniors department. These were done in poor taste.
Oh, I didn't see that back. Well, it still needs a question mark. And now I'm imagining Santa wearing them, so, thanks for that.
This should take about 6 months, with nightly restocking of the removed offending garments occurring for the first 2 months or so...
I knew I should've bought those panties while I could've! I thought they were kinda cute--though I liked them better without the Santa message on the back.
With the notoriety, I bet these panties are going on ebay for bucks. Sigh.
I knew Santa was a horndog once I was old enough to read the cartoons in the Playboy Xmas edition.
@spinachdip: Well, the panties may not contain tainted meat, but they might contain forbidden fruit.
@liquisoft: Well, it would've been a great way to teach teenage girls about fiscal responsibility if not for the Santa message.
@XianZomby: I just realized tainted meat + panties + WalMart clientele = horrible, horrible mental imagery. Ugh.
As eager as I am to bitch-slap walmart and trashy girls, I got a totally different read on these panties (that they are against wreckless shopping). But I think I'm alone in that!
I think that the santa thing makes it LESS creepy to tell you the truth. Like, if it was on a T-shirt it would be a normal thing...
@joopiter:
LOL -- so true. Fire up the camera phones, peeps!
From Nazi death's head tees for youth to preteen ho undies: WalMart does it all for the "whut?" generation.
//Milk and cookies is all you should be giving him, young lady.//
The panties are ENCOURAGING them to give Santa their cookies.... Santa would be the one giving the milk though >;D
I wonder if there will still be some on the shelves several months from now along with the Nazi tees.
@rdm24: That's what I thought at first too--they were against getting into debt panties--the message on the back ruins that thought. They're better without anything the Santa reference.
Boy, they really are taking the 'Ho out of Santas elves...
Well, given that Santa's got his wife or thousands of elves (and I hear black elves are called brownies for some strange reason)...
...it makes you wonder...
I wonder how long it will take for these to get off of the shelves.
If it's anything like the Nazi t-shirt, it'll take many weeks.
Hope you guys follow this story and keep on it!
