YouTube Videos of the Piggly Wiggly!

It lurks in the Produce Department...

Mexico has the Chupacabra. Scotland has Nessie. And now... another mythical type animal... the Piggly Wiggly!! And it's been spotted on YouTube!!

No actually that's not what this lens is about. But sort of. One day I was bored and I typed in "Piggly Wiggly" on Youtube, and lo and behold a number of interesting videos came up! Turns out there's a supermarket in the Midwest with that name! Not only that, people just loooove to take random or stupid videos while they are "at the Pig", as the locals say. So here's some insight into Piggly Culture.

(On a note: Some of the videos show real people being themselves in actual life, so some of their word choices are questionable, but by and large everything is kosher, I checked everything out first!)

First Stop On Our Tour: A Snippish Cashier!!

This was among my first impressions of life in and around a Piggly Wiggly. Seems like a fun, fun place to me!!

Why just go shopping when you can make a music video?

I have to wonder how this guy avoided running into other shoppers while filming this. Must have been early in the morning, I guess!

A Nice Commercial

Well, this lense wouldn't be complete really without a genuine, 100% commercial for the Pig itself. So here you go, as a kind of intermission.

Four Seconds of Fame

Someone riding a shopping cart... dunno. However this is an interesting sociological case study of the human need for expression through various media. Somehow the Pig seems to trigger this area of the brain for people?

Kids at the Pig

Passing the savings on the next generation!!

This is a cute video. Also shows how random people just have to dabble in filmography when they get around a Piggly Wiggly. Maybe they have some sort of mind ray at each store that pushes them to it?

Next Stop - The Collective Narrative In Life and Art

Some really hyper kids taking a video of a shopping trip to the Pig. A new and emerging phenomenon to study! However I must warn that some of the language can be a little rough because that's how college kids can be, but overall it's funny stuff.

People With Hats Go Chip Shopping

Title is self-explanatory, yet inadequate to really capture the full meaning and bent of this video. (note: this video has since disappeared, but I have kept the reference here because it was truly a great piece of art.)

Very Perky People Make Comments

Warning: If you are easily annoyed by peppy talk, do not watch!!

This is yet another example of amateur cinematography taking place in a pork-related place. Eggplants, meeting a crazy neighbor, the fun just never ends!

I am truly scared of these people 0_o

why? Why? WHY?

Watch at your own risk. Seems to be some sort of bizarre, cult ritual trying to appease The Pig.

The monologue reaches new heights.
