SIGSEGV posted:I agree, I really miss rcman's posting, which this woman is wearing on her face. There's a direct correlation to the amount of confederate flags you see in public and the amount of decorative sword stores in mini-malls, so maybe you live in the wrong location. Also, I shared a brief, friendly smile with a guy in a Walmart the other day in the produce section only for him to turn around, which is when I noticed the big confederate flag sewn onto the back of his jacket. It is worth noting that I live in British Columbia.

It is worth noting that I live in British Columbia. I used to live in B.C. and I can only remember, off hand, one decorative sword store. But maybe there were more and I just never noticed them all. Here, in Hawaii, we have the swap meet! And boy oh boy there's like, a dozen sword and knife vendor stalls all over the place! When I was thirteen I bought a katana because I couldn't afford the Real Metal Batarang(tm).

[unsheaths dull katana purchased at mini-mall] I know it's chaos, but gently caress if I can't stop reading that as "CASHEWS OF CHADS" Especially with this being marketed towards "gamers," there was a solid few seconds I had to look real close to make sure.

We had a sword store with cheesy "Asian" decorations. I only went there because there was a super hot guy working there, though.

TotalLossBrain posted:I remember mobile sword stores by the side of the road going north from Houston when I was working in Texas over a decade ago. Mobile sword stores? Like instead of some guy selling flowers at the side of the road, he's selling swords? I've seen this for rugs and bedsheets. Would not be interested in bedsheets bought from a random person at the roadside, or rugs, for that matter. But weapons being sold this way is a really strange image. Even if they are chintzy weapons for decorative purposes only.

I don't recall ever seeing a mall or Walmart katana, but conventions generally have at least one and sometimes multiple booths selling cheap stainless steel swords and knives in really impractical designs. I've also gotten some blank guns from there, which are more fun.

Around 2000, nearly every mall in Calgary had a sword store. So the rebel flag-sword store thing checks out.

MageMage posted:Ever seen a pointlessly gendered product? Maybe not the absolute most pointless, but I'm always super confused about why razors for men and women are like completely segregated. Gillette will never ever market the Machs or whatever to women. It's a drat blade, for getting rid of your hair. Stop it. Every single product from them in that series says "For Men". Even the website is titled "For men". I don't understand it at all.

My husband once got a free MachSomething in the mail, completely unsolicited. He uses an electric shaver, though, so I inherited the MAN'S MACHMILLION BEARD DESTROYER 3000 to use on my dainty ladylegs. ![]()

I guess guys like that typically depend on repeat local customers so they take freshness very seriously. And it's the entire point of something like that, to get the freshest stuff that was just caught like that morning.

(I'm a guy) Yeah the 7 blade face turbofuckers are completely pointless, and replacement heads cost so much I'll need to mortgage my house. I should just go back to the disposables. It's bad for the environment but at least I'm not getting hoodwinked by some corporate idiots who don't know what to do to rebrand besides add more garbage to the handle.

I remember there was this one customer with a shaved head who came in and was super nice to everyone. He was the type of guy who just makes your whole day. Anyway, I was ringing him up and when he turned to leave I saw her had A HUGE (like the entire back of his head huge) tattoo of a swastika. That was a big "whelp" moment for me. And on sword chat, the only sword store I saw growing up (still in Illinois) was a combo sword, comic, and M:TG store. My brother and I spent way too much time there.

They're cheap, low maintenance, and generate a lot less waste than disposables.

There's a video of a woman who bought some eyebrow-tinting stuff from the same company and it pulled her eyebrow clean off. Good times. Also, yes, what the gently caress is that thing?

I've always been weirded out by the vans in AZ selling seafood by the side of the road. There are tons. Hello salmonella.

Seconding safety razors, you can get a box of 100 feather blades for like $30. I go through mine at the rate of 1 blade a month.

It's got a big fluffy hood. I mean, it's from Wish so it's cheap poo poo, but there's nothing wrong with how that'll look when worn. Just big and fluffy. It's probably even a photo stolen from a brand that's charging hundreds of dollars for it.
