14 years ago when I was thrifting, I used to get excited about movies I’d find, season sets I’d find, a couple toy figures, maybe some games or hey, there’s something I could use. Fucking awesome!
14 years later, I’ve been waiting until a thrift store at least puts up an office chair I’d like to have that’s better than what I got and if the appliances I get are going to be useful.
I noticed this happening recently as last night. I was wondering what the fuck was going on. 30 minutes my ass, for example, I listened to Alice in Chains’ Them Bones which is a 2 minute song, after the “promise” of 30 minutes ad-free and I got ad after fucking ad. Then I get a song, then it’s ad after fucking ad. I’ll be lucky I get 2 more songs before it’s more ads.
I’m actually going to be looking into a media player that has bluetooth in it so I don’t have to ever put up with this spotify shit.
Wal-Mart loves doing this. Anyone who works there know that it’s all over the splash screen on Walmart One. “DOUG MCMILLON WANTS TO TALK ABOUT YET ANOTHER STRONG QUARTER!”. And the shitshow of podcasts and whatever the fuck they run also want to talk about it.
Yet you’re going around shopping and finding yourself debating as to what to shop for because almost everything is fucking marked up.

I hate getting this when Google absolutely knows that I’m the one logging in and actively using said account!
I get it, verification this and verification that, but for fuck sakes, it’s nothing but an obstacle course that drains seconds and minutes of doing.
