Idiots stand in line for bags at Whole Foods

I just saw a report on CNN Headline News about acerebral lemmings standing in line, in the rain, for grocery bags at Whole Foods.

Entrances to Whole Foods locations in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut swarmed with shoppers Wednesday morning who had lined up to buy limited-edition canvas bags designed by Anya Hindmarch.

Whole Foods' (Charts, Fortune 500) four New York City locations each had about 2,900 bags to sell to the first shoppers who arrived, according to a Whole Foods spokesman Fred Shanks. Suburban stores had only 300 bags available.

I'm tempted to say it's a publicity stunt by Whole Foods. The people who stood in line couldn't possibly be that dumb, could they? They must have been planted by the company, timed with a blitz of press releases? Unfortunately they are probably that stupid. There has to be some way to balance out the idiocy. I should buy a Whole Foods bag and relieve myself in it, then throw it out on the highway. I'd stand in line for that.
