I was in my local k-mart super duper center getting some oil for my truck when my wife said she wanted to walk through the comforter section. Looking around and seeing everything slapped with a martha stewart label, something caught my eye.

martha stewart moth balls. What the crap is this? They slap her name on a moth ball and charge 3 times as much. Do they put purer chemicals in her moth balls or something? Maybe some potpourri scent.

Then there are the martha stewart pans and spatulas. I can't wait for the martha stewart toilet paper. If I did not hate wal-mart so much, I would not set foot in k-mart.

Anybody else dislike this woman as much as I do?

uhh... her stuff is pretty cheap, if you ask me. I just furnished an apartment and her kitchen and bedroom stuff is cheaper than most places.

dude your at kmart. All the crap there is cheap. Go take your wife to macy's or rich's or whatever federated is called and when she starts picking out a set of sheets that cost $250, you'll think martha stewart is a goddess.

I think a lot of people make fun of Martha Stewart, dunno about hate... but anyone who puts a trademark on "Good Thing" is a "Bad Thing" IMO.

She's a good looking older lady that has become successful by working hard and doing things that normal folks know how to do. I think a lot of the negativity towards her is from jealous moms and women who have done what she does all of their lives. But, they haven't gotten filthy rich from doing it.

I have respect for the woman even though she is completely fake. She's built an empire out of cooking and crafts.

She looks so young and trim because she's filmed that way. Remember when Cybill Shepard took some crap because she made the cameramen use filters? That's Martha. She's filmed with very soft, diffuse light - pretty much anyone can look young and soft under those conditions. From what I've read, she's also a maniac control freak - she goes over every picture and tape and has them retouched or reshot if she thinks she looks bad.

If you ever see pictures of her at social events and stuff, she looks like a nasty hag. She has a perpetually sour look on her face and believe me, her face is more wrinkled and her haircolor looks quite unnatural.

Martha is all show, no substance and yes, I do hate her. She tries to make normal women feel inadequate (hey, you mean we're supposed to raise our own chickens?), all the while selling her incomprehensibly expensive trash to them. The stuff at KMart is cheap - but have you ever looked at her own online store? Towels for $50 a piece? Cookie cutters for $35?

Yes, she is in a pact with the devil. She may be the devil for all I know.

heheheh how do you really feel ChrictonsGirl?

All the kmart stuff is made in China. That's why its cheap. But Kmart's stock jumped about 4$ when she resigned her deal with them.
