Memes

RadioShack, and it's not even close.

Jesus.

Only because I want to see how Right wing "Christians" would react to being faced with their messiah being a middle-eastern globalist communist that preaches love and acceptance.

Either RadioShack or Toys R Us. The other two, one is useless in this day and age, and the other is Blockbuster

I CHOOSE HARAMBE

RadioShack had everything you were looking for and absolutely nothing at the same time. It was glorious.

I would choose Jesus and I'm not even Cristian 🤣🤣🤣

RadioShack.

I remember going as a kid, once. I was 5 I think. It was....unique. A shit ton of red I remember. And cheap cell phone cords. Wish I could've experienced it more. Especially during the 90s. But that's before my time.

Radioshack fs, bring back the idea of repairing your shit to the public mind

I'd say Jesus. Either to prove everything written in the bible is fake or to watch some sweet miracles happen. Either way, I win.

80s RadioShack for sure. I miss that place so much.

I think people are forgetting that Blockbuster video was the shitty megacorp that killed all the charming local, independent video stores.

Those stores had personality. I miss that experience.

Blockbuster felt corporate and bad.

RADIOSHACK!!

I’d like to bring back the market environment that made Radio Shack profitable - when the “right to repair” was a given, and not something that needed to be fought for in court.

Jesus. Imagine how much of the world would react if

1: jesus literally proved he existed to faiths that say he's a hoax (im agnostic btw)

2: He reforms the groups that use his name as a pretext to exclude & marginalize others.

3: Dude turned out to have been gaming like a boss in heaven, like dude comes down & faces the pope in Dungeons & Dragons or Pokemon lmfaooo

Jesus. He is slated to return one day anyway but we need him now to show republicans what christianity is all about

As a non-American I'm not familiar with any of these things. That dude looks kinda familiar though, wasn't he one of the Beatles? The one that got shot? Bring him back please!

I miss having knowing there's a Radio Shack around the corner if I need an obscure component or an exotic battery for a project.

Yeah, you can find anything online now, but you have to wait for it to ship, hope it doesn't get lost or stolen, and hope they actually sent the right part.

Edit to add: Basically 80-90s RS, not the husk that it was more recently that sold mostly phones and crap toys around the holidays.

RadioShack, the real thing but modernised, like Fry's and microcenter but way more hardcore. It's not even a contest

Fuck the nostalgia treats. As far as I have read, was a comrade and would be a comrade again.

Definitely Jesus. I want to eat popcorn while I watch Christo-fascists and the prosperity gospel crowd hysterically calling Jesus a terrorist because he took a flamethrower to their vile McChurches.

RadioShack was great when every electronic was analog and you needed some random VGA to RCA adapter at 9pm on a weekday

Fry's Electronics

Toys R Us, easy.

RadioShack. Without a doubt.

As someone who worked at RadioShack, I would only want to bring it back if we could have owners who care about electronics and technology more and making profits less. I got to live the decline as they tried to become a cell phone store, and then got destroyed by big box stores and provider stores in that market. RadioShack would need to stay in its lane. Electronics, home theater, computers.

If you have a MicroCenter in your area, it will have all this for you, tho, so I honestly would pick ToysRUs. There just isn't a real "fun focused" retailer anymore. Even adults could feel like kids at ToysRUs.

Toys r Us still alive in Canada!

Jesus but only if He's vibing with His roommate the Buddha in some small apartment like in that one manga

I live in a crazy ancient backwards land where Toys R’ Us still exists.

So the obvious choice is RadioShack.

Surprisingly, I might pick Blockbuster. Having even just one streaming service costs the same as like 8 rentals per month. Idk about the rest of you, but I think I watch more movies than most and it's still not 8 per month. And remember video game rentals?! Game Pass and PS+ Extra are amazing, but the selection is far from endless.

And it's kinda win-win. I'd bet anything that revenue for these media companies would rise since it would be cheap enough and convenient enough to curb some amount of piracy. It's just not worth the effort and risk for lots of people if they can just pop in for a rental while they're already out for groceries. Redbox should be more successful, but there's something about browsing in person through aisle after aisle and seeing what jumps out, and it saddens me that my generation may be the last to have had that experience.

Y'all really need to step up the meme game. What does this even mean. "I'm old ha ha ha?"

Also, Jesus. I don't need more cheap crap, I need to get drunk on a friday without spending my whole paycheck and Josh can hook that up.

I mean I kinda gotta go with Jesus so we can end the world already

...are there other choices?
