Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Well you didn't tell us which store so we don't know
They told you to guess!
Radio Shack?
Everyone who ever entered a Radio Shack was followed around the store.
And enough people didn't come back that they went out of business.
Man, I miss radio shack when they actually had electronic components.
They sold out their base 😤
Yeah, they were great for that. Ever since they closed, I don't really have a local source for that kind of thing anymore.
Then I'm not wrong.
If you went over to the components drawers they’d bolt though, they didn’t know how to answer any questions about that stuff and also knew you were too cheap to buy a cellphone (I’m talking the last 10 years of the store or so, when they tried to be sprint stores or Verizon or whatever).
