Stupid Poll Says Philadelphians Love Online Shopping

Hey, did you go shopping online on Monday? No? But it was “Cyber Monday,” the first day of the online holiday shopping season! Okay, who cares it’s not the biggest day for online sales and it was actually made up by online retailers and reported on by an all-too-lazy media as truth, hello, it was Cyber Monday! The holiest day of the online shopping year!

Okay, so maybe (i.e. definitely) Cyber Monday isn’t real. (The graphic on this post, by the way, is from a Google Image Search for “Cyber Monday.”) But that hasn’t stopped Philadelphians from shopping online, as we apparently lead the country in online shoppers.

Apparently, Philadelphians are too ugly to shop in actual stores, so 79 percent of Philadelphians surveyed by notoriously inaccurate pollster Zogby will buy at least some Christmas presents online. And forty percent have used a cell phone to “comparison shop.” OMG!

Wait, do 40 percent of Philadelphians even have cell phones that would allow them to shop online?
