      seems more equitably split between them. although, i have observed, lesbian couples tend to view is as a dull task

      Was a bit surprised until that part. No way my moms shopping would seem like an equitable split between them. Granted, one of my moms is regularly assumed to be a guy (I’ve had my high school’s front office tell me to go to a remote parking lot to see my “dad” before - had fun messing with my teacher by pointing out I don’t have one as I left the classroom). So people might not even notice they are a lesbian couple and many probably assume she’s a dad when with us. Home Depot has always been far closer.

          Nice. Curious if this is mostly younger couples. My parents grew up in a time less accepting (and we are in Texas), so that seems foreign to me.

              “family discount” as in “oh look the box has a tiny ding in it - guess this damaged stock and therefore I had better ring this up at cost plus”?

              Family discount…do single people often buy appliances? And why would single people be better off than families for there to be a need for a family discount? Lol

                … people who are single generally still have family members of one sort or another. Humans are generally not reproducing through parthenogenosis.

                  True, but the birthday discount only happens on the customer’s birthday; not just because they have a birthday!

          The two brands that have high reviews and moderate pricing. I swear Samsung pads their reviews.

          They could be sensible and spend more on a more reliable product, but no.

      I had sparks flying out of my fixtures in one room from old water damage. After 2 days I just replaced them myself with $3 gfi switches and plugs and put an Arc fault breaker in.

      When I moved out I took the outlets and breaker with me. I didn’t need them, but fuck those guys.

        I installed a ceiling fan in my apartment when I first moved in, and you bet your ass I’m uninstalling it and taking it with me when I move out. It’s a nice ceiling fan.

    Didn’t the owner or CEO of lowes say some really homophobic shit a few years ago? I feel like they got the demos swapped. On the other hand, I like Lowes Lesbian as a term a lot more than butch.

      Not just gay men. Men without children can’t do home improvement. This is common knowledge.

        Incorrect. Of all my male friends, the ones with kids are to ones that do the most simple DIY projects (handyman level stuff), but the childless ones are the ones that do the most complex projects (renovations, custom works, etc).

        EDIT: The useless gay man stereotype holds though. Looking at you Wes and Andy.
