RadioShack, and it's not even close.

I mean…it kinda makes the most sense to bring Jesus back.

  • Still none of us would leave the house to rent movies if blockbuster came back.

  • None of us have shopped at toys r us since were had our own money to spend, so toys r us wold exist to us all the same way it does now: a fond memory.

  • RadioShack…I mean, would anyone not buy their shit online if that happened? Nah. Also, not to mention, fuck corporations and chain stores and consumerism.

And if you bring Jesus back…he’s a socialist pacifist Jew that might have a chance of setting the worst America has to offer right on their misguided opinions. We need more powerful anarcho-socialists, especially powerful ones—and I mean, literally powerful. He is purportedly magic. Boom. Goodbye capitalism.

No question. Bring Jesus back. And Conan.

I mean, if we're bringing like Bible Jesus back, I'd agree. But if we were to bring back the actual Jesus, he'd probably just be some religious lefty with a podcast and no one would care.

I'm not sure how a socialist jew half way around the world from me is going to help me find a specific value capacitor that I need immediately to fix an AV reciever I just picked up from goodwill.

He does make a good point. As much as I like online ordering, being able to go to a store and get what I need the same day is something else

I love living just a short drive from a MicroCenter.

Lucky. The closest one to me is at least a state away

Lucky. The closest one to me is at least an ocean away

I mean…you could still do that. There are just more advanced electronics stores. Just because they’re not called RadioShack doesn’t mean you can’t still got to a store.
