And since you were talking about fondling tools, I just picked up a new saw, this one. http://www.festoolusa.com/Prod...spx?id=3&prodid=561174

really nice tool, grossly overpriced.


OMG! I would kiss your ass and give you a reacharound just to be in the presence of that saw! If you let me touch it I would allow you to do unspeakable things to my body.

You can go to Home Depot and walk the aisles in peace and serenity. Nobody bothers you while you peruse the merchandise and dream of buying that new Mag 77 or Bosch Colt. You can carress the tablesaws, fondle the RotoZips and even clutch the DeWalt 6 piece combo 18 volt to your chest and press your lips to it in a fit of ecstasy without being bothered by any of the hired clones. They respect your privacy.

At Lowe's, in contrast, you can't sneeze without some buttwipe asking if you need a tissue or getting in your way as you navigate the aisles. The bastards just won't leave you alone! As you are fondling a cheap piece of shit Firestorm drill some company retard will inevitably approach you and attempt to lead you away from that vile maker of holes and lead you to something more appopriate. How I hate those bastards!

From now on I'm shopping at the 99 cent store.

I prefer Lowes to Home Depot. I don't care about service because I know my way around the hardware store. But Lowes selection and organization of the store are much better than the Depot. Depot stores just look like trash, sometimes. And their employees are not much smarter than semi-trained monkeys.

I have no problem with that. The kiddies here will miss out on all the fun, though.

Yeah but the kiddies here hand out bans for man love, and that Hayabusa Rider prick is isn't to be trusted, he stalks other forum members.

I have quite the oposite. Whenever I go to Home Depot everyone and their grandmother seems to want to talk to me. Last two times I went to Home Depot:

Friend and I are walking down the pvc isle and this female employee stops us and asks us if we are looking for funnels. Friend and I look at eachother wondering where she got that idea. She then clarifies, "You know, for beer bongs." We stare at eachother and just start laughing our asses off. She goes on to say, "Well, just in case. They are two isles down" and walks away.

Second trip (with same friend): Walking down the hardware isle looking for bolts to use on one of our robots. While standing there this random old guy walks up to us and starts talking to us. We wern't really paying attention to him much be he began talking about this handyman magazine and comparing it to another and weighing the pros and cons of both magazines. It took everything we had to keep from laughing our asses off in front of this guy.

It is wondrous, and perhaps an intervention by God, that you and your friend have such firm grips on your asses. Perhaps you should fall to your knees and chant, "Ooooommmmm".

Move to the midwest and enjoy the monopoly that is Menard's. I live in Eau Claire (where it was founded and has its HQ), and the owner has threatened to move the manufacturing center out of town of the city council allows a Home Depot to be built inside the city limits...
