I wonder if the walmart robots will be injured and middle aged like the ladies that work there now - plus will they have cameras with a feed to peopleofwalmart.com

i have a friend who's like that and who used to really enjoy going to walmart at 2am. his thing was "everything's so fucked up beyond repair that you might as well enjoy the fucked-upness of it all"
there's a Walmart in Greenpoint?

I have always had knowledgable clerks at Wal-Mart in the gun department, when I'm trying to figure out what ammunition I want.

do they make a gun that can shoot paintballs full of pepper spray? - for use against racoons

do they sell t-shirt guns, y/n

do they sell a gun that shoots beer into your mouth?

yes but you can only really use it once

Target started carrying a lot more aspirational soap + candle brands like Caldrea and stuff
I think it's the same company as that Meyer's Green Day cleaning products stuff, actually
I am a 31 year old male who likes buying cleaning products and stuff that smells good don't judge me

i've some target dental floss and as someone mentioned upthread, many of their in-house products have better graphic design going on than do the name brand competitors. especially since proctor and gamble got rid of their "we worship satan" progrock wizard logo

dude i think that is called sanity. if all guys were into aromatherapeutic cleaning products then our children would have a chance at a thermonuclearwarless future
so please rock on with your aspirational soaps. you have the right idea

i bought a target ("archer farms") ham once. was p good. tasted like normal ham. their salty snacks are good too. don't really know beyond that.
i shouldn't have repped for target brand food in the first place. i started out intending to compliment their packaging and product design, especially their toys and holiday merch. they have kids workshop and kitchen toy sets (lol, i know) that are way cooler and cheaper than anything similar on the market. if i had kids, i'd buy the shit out of that stuff. and their halloween stuff is wonderful.

nah, i totally can relate. since they stopped making incandescent lightbulbs and made everyone buy those florescent ones, it's almost impossible to build your own e-z bake oven

maybe you just have shitty ones with bad scents rather than good ones that smell like bamboo or cilantro

was recently thinking that fake watermelon smell is the best fake smell
in fact I might think that fake watermelon TASTE is better than real watermelon taste, at least in the Jolly Rancher version

Kudzu scented candles are really nice. I didn't even know kudzu flowers had a scent until a local candlemaker started selling them.

fake grapefruit scent is amazing, so long as it's not in a candol
target's knockoff peak freans are NOT as good as genuine peak freans (though I called them and asked if they were made in the peak freans factory, and they were very cagey about it.) target's tim tams ARE as good as genuine tim tams, or at least they're as good as taiwanese tim tams.

"peak freans", for instance, is clearly a drug reference

anything canadian is a drug reference. e.g. toques, Rush

knockoff timtams are satisfactory when the real thing is not available but they aren't as good as the real thing imo
