It’s ok, let me just pull over to the side and go six menus deep in the touch screens to find the hazards.

over_clox OP ,

No no, that’s okay, the display literally says COMFORT…

dingus , in Dollar Tree done went up yo...

While everyone has been fucking us over on inflation (my rent went up $500 in one year), I’ll actually give them this one. Things have been $1 there for literally decades. Raising it to $1.25 really is actually a more reasonable change for that long of a time period to begin with.

And no, it’s not “$1.25 and up”. It’s $1.25 and under. You’re thinking of places like Dollar General where they lied about being a $1 store to begin with and are actually way more expensive than that. Dollar General is not and was notna true dollar store.

Don’t get me wrong. Dollar Tree isn’t exactly a wholesome company. But of all the things happening recently it’s actually a more reasonable change.

over_clox OP ,

Um, excuse me?

They literally went to $1.25 and above. Please STFU.

Please don’t tell me about a store we visit every other day.

dingus ,

Interesting. It seems limited to location per that article. I have not seen items above $1.25 at the Dollar Trees in my region.

over_clox OP ,

Well, our minimum prices are $1.25+tax, and some items are $3, $5, and even $10.

dingus ,

Wow yours sounds like it’s priced like a $5 Below. Are you in California or New York, by chance?

over_clox OP ,

Mississippi

dingus ,

Ah, I’ve figured it out. Using the store locator tool, it looks like many Dollar Tree stores in your state have converted into Dollar Tree Plus. Dollar Tree Plus does not stick to the original Dollar Tree mantra of everything being $1.

Places without “Plus” in the store locator tool are regular Dollar Tree locations where everything is $1.25 or less.

In my region, I cannot seem to find any Dollar Tree Plus locations, thank goodness. Everything is still $1.25 here.

over_clox OP ,

So, can I sue them for not using the ‘Plus’ logo…?

dingus ,

Unfortunately, no. But you can use the store locator to see if there is a non “Plus” location near you. It seems there are supposedly some non Plus locations still in Mississippi, but I have no idea if any of them are a convenient distance from you.

over_clox OP ,

Huh, interesting. I might have to check the locator app out sooner or later, but we only got one Dollar Tree in town so it would really only count when we happen to be out of town.

There are no dollar tree plus stores in my area but a lot of them still have the higher priced sections now.

over_clox OP ,

And some items are up to $10

I call it the dollar twenty five store.

@CrazyEddie041@kbin.social avatar

It's not specific, it's just making the point that the options being given are something bad, something bad, or something good. Pretty obvious choice to anybody with half a brain.

luthis ,

OHHHHHHHH. Duh.

charliespider ,

Ya I don’t get it either

luthis ,

I was reading too much into it. It’s just ‘here’s another situation with 2 obviously shit options and 1 really good one.’

do you also hate vw, porsche and bentley? salt water and batteries are no bueno. and ice cars do have batteries. what about cooling trucks or this

over_clox OP ,

I’ve only ever seen one lead-acid battery halfway pop, and that’s only because it wasn’t secured down and bumped both terminals against the hood after hitting a bump in the road. Even then it didn’t explode.

Try that with a lithium ion battery…

American_Communist22 , in Absolutely nothing of note happened in China in June 1989, right?
@American_Communist22@lemmygrad.ml avatar

I wonder what happens when you watch the full video

the one where the tanks politely wait for the man to leave and then continue on their way, away from the square.

Godric OP ,

Wowsers, I never knew the tanks were there as an honour guard to politely support the protestors. I suppose a lesser country would see sending tanks against the people as pure cowardice, but that time tanks were sent to show support to the people protesting against them! Very upright and cool!

coltorl ,

I wonder what the man was protesting 🤔

American_Communist22 ,
@American_Communist22@lemmygrad.ml avatar

Your guess was as good as mine, he seem to hand the tanker groceries at one point, seems to gesture them to go back to the square, and has what looks like a full on convo with them.

We don’t know what he said so its up in the air

coltorl ,

Likely simply letting one of the tankers know that their fly was undone!

American_Communist22 ,
@American_Communist22@lemmygrad.ml avatar

idk some people are weird like that

fact is that the tanks waited for him to leave when they had no reason to, didn’t engage him at all, and then went on their merry way.

I’d like to see a Palestinian kid be able to do the same to zionists

coltorl ,

Unfortunately the students that could have brought peace to the middle east were horribly crushed the day before! Shame, really.

Especially when they’re horribly crushed!

alter boys

I don’t want to sound homophonic but that could be an apt description of their unit depending on its makeup. It’s a rare case of the high-speed, high-drag operator.

DigitalTraveler42 ,

“but they’re entertaining!”

suction ,

This right here. Germans thought Hitler was “entertaining”, too, for a while.

DigitalTraveler42 ,

That was the whole premise behind r/the_donald back on Reddit, and it started as irony and then the numbskulls who don’t get or don’t care about “irony” and “satire” showed up and meme’d Trump to four nightmarish years as President.

I know he’s not Hitler or anything, but the book of Hitler’s speeches on his nightstand that his ex-wife told us about tells us he definitely admired Hitler, absolutely disgusting.

suction ,

He could very well become as bad as Hitler, I think he’s the same kind of psychopath. The parallels are uncanny, AH and Trump are both ridiculous figures that’s why they are underestimated until it’s too late. Also the speech on January 6th and the accompanying video are fully, unapologetically “Nazi” to a degree Goebbels would have been proud (the “we’ve been so nice to them”) speech.
