'101 ways to get kicked out of WalMart' is a popular Internet game poking fun at the discount department store chain. (Gary Malerba / AP Images for Walmart) 
 

"101 ways to get kicked out of WalMart" is a popular Internet list game poking fun at the WalMart discount department store chain frequented by many young adults as well as by customers of all ages across the country.  The game primarily exists on chat and blog discussion forums online, but it is also played via YouTube with contributors making up their own "101 ways to get kicked out of WalMart" list or adding to existing lists. The topic trended as a popular search on Google on Saturday, showing just how many people were searching for lists and adding to them.

The idea is not to get into any trouble by actually getting oneself kicked out of WalMart (though some entries have gone to that unfortunate extreme) but to instead propose the most outrageous, ingenious, creative, or humorous actions that might result in that consequence were they to be actually performed.

For example, one way listed on an Internet forum is to go into a fitting room, wait a few minutes, then shout out to the clerk on duty, "Hey, there is no toilet paper in here!"

Another suggestion is to put a Snickers bar on layaway (does WalMart even have layaway?).

Still another is to set all the alarm clocks to go off at the same time.

What do you think, Dear Reader?  Do you want to play the game?  Do you have a suggestion for an innocent, but playful action that might get one kicked out of a store like WalMart?  Let us know in the Comment Section

Warning:  This article is not endorsing actually doing any of these actions (seriously--who wants to be annoyed while shopping by some jerk doing any one of these things?)--the list is just for fun!
