You'd have to be really high on...well, weed, but heroin or meth will do, to go "a great idea for the modern man is to get banned from every state subreddit on the popular social media site Reddit".

I'd have thought OP was a karma farmer. A "karmer", if you will. But what even is the point of this? Unfunny lolz? Shitty bragging rights?

Or you could just answer the question that is being asked on Reddit and save OP a step since, y'know, they're asking here and not on Google. Someone answered with a single word and it took them 5 seconds to type it.

Mutations have been making rounds for months now. They pop up very frequently. Seems like one a week.

The catch is that it's about as effective to people as telling a cat lady to stop bringing cats inside. You will hardly get a bat of an eye nowadays.

COVID is going to stick around. It will never truly go away. Might be like the flu that gets worse around a certain time of year, who knows. But it's in for the long haul.

That's not what I'm saying, either. My point is that Big Lots, Mardens, etc. aren't really ideal places to shop, if you are looking for products that are in good quality upon home arrival or store arrival that will last long. I'm not talking about the warranty at all.

But is the quality good? Is the return policy solid or will they give you a hard time? Is online ordering solid all around?

Asking real questions here. My respective guesses are no, might give you a hard time, and...probably not.

I will state for a third time: personal preference. But if you're gonna try to convince me to shop at Big Lots, I'm a tough customer, sorry.

I dunno...I bought leggings from them many years ago and they haven't failed me yet. Same with shirts. Bought a pair of Crocs for pretty cheap cheap I took with me to help a friend with moving out and they worked like a charm. And I bought a TV from them for $200 a couple years back that has worked very well for me--wasn't even a Black Friday product.

You just need to know how to shop properly, both in-store and online--otherwise you can and will end up with shitty products. Nothing more, nothing less.

Mardens and Big Lots aren't better than Walmart except to bootlickers. They sell hand-me-down or "budget" products that are a hit-or-miss when it comes to quality. I'd pit Big Lots over Mardens just because the quality of the products looks better than a lot of what I've seen in Mardens, but it's not really stellar and I'd much rather turn to places like Walmart or Amazon for things like electronics. Appliances, you default to Home Depot or Lowe's for stuff like that. That's just common sense.

Again, personal preference.

Again, gal.

And they do sell good-quality products. You just have to poke around online and in the store, and know how to shop well. Not everyone does, and that's fine. Mardens, Big Lots and the like are easier for those kinds of people. All you have to do is look and buy--no need for reading reviews or checking the box to see if it's in good condition, none of that. Simple buy and go stuff! And of course, for appliances, you have the Maine warranty OP mentioned to back you up.

If you don't believe that, then you're the one who lives in a delusion--a delusion where you suck the dicks of the small-box stores like they're gods in the sky. Which is honestly very sad.

Gal, actually.

And sure, that's your experience. Everyone has their personal preferences, though. I'm comfortable with the big-boi stores that sell good shit that I can return with a solid return policy under my feet. All I have to do is pop over to Walmart, throw shit in a cart, schedule a pickup, take the 5-minute ride over, and boom, I got my shit in top quality. Easy peasy!

I wouldn't buy stuff from places like Big Lots and Mardens if someone paid me $999 trillion. A lot of it--not all of it, mind--is residual junk from big-box stores that is in terrible quality either on the shelf or in terms of usage when you buy it. I'd rather get it nice and fresh from trusted retailers that I can read reviews from people on, and have solid return policies to boot.

But of course, everyone has their personal preferences, and that's okay. If your Big Lots air fryer worked good for 3 years, good for you, real happy for you. But my preference is sticking with my familiar places, thank you very much.

So you're lying, then? You're probably giving out BJs or handjobs or whatever? Gotcha.

You can try reporting me but I dunno if you'll get very far. I'll report you for spamming n' scamming, though. Do better. Be better. Normal people not running scams would not be weirdly defensive when confronted, not to the degree you're displaying.

EDIT: Oh, I got beaten to the punch on reporting, it seems. Good.
