Sir, this is a shitpost
Honest question: does lowes not do it?
Lowes also does it.
Fuckers.
Unfortunately, unless you've got a local mom and pop that only takes cash, you're not going to find any store where you won't get tracked.
You could however find a store that does not entertain the notion of purchasing flock AI surveillance cameras.
harm reduction.

This might be the most scholarly shitpost I've ever read. Bravo to everyone involved.
Someone put a home detail apron.
AI can probably do better than my budget-tier GIMP skills, but here ya go
I think artisanal GIMP has more meme heart anyway.
The jank is always part of the charm.
I tried ~~MS Paint~~ KolourPaint, as is tradition, but removing the background without layers was too much effort
Nope, this is perfect. AI is completely wrong for shitposting. You chose well.
Also it's actually a pretty solid job.
We had a minor freeze last year. I went to Home Depot and the last piece of pipe insulation was very mangled and the adhesive was falling off. I asked the clerk if they would discount it for me since all I needed was about 1 ft but would buy the damaged parts at a discount.
They got a supervisor who argued with me that “it’s suppose to be like that”. Like brother I’m trying to help y’all get this damaged product off the shelf. I’ll happily pay full price for undamaged product. We argued for about 5 minutes before he went to the back and brought me a piece from a brand new box.
lol got me there for a second
So, fun fact. This is apparently called "Patina." It's the same thing that's on the statue of liberty, and funner fact, it actually makes it stronger!
They come pre-oxidized? Damn that's a real Time Saver
Don't they all come pre-oxidized? That's why you have to use the wire brush to scrape it off before soldering.
Pre seasoned
Ea nasir is the founder of ea games and it is named after him /s
Consider yourself lucky, I couldn't even get any fittings, my store was so overrun by fucking Sea People.
Not Ea-Nasir still scamming people thousands of years later 😭
He can't keep getting away with it!
Sometimes I could use some of these to convince the inspector I didn't touch the plumbing.

He can't keep getting away with this
That's it! I need to invent writing.
These look like the workings of Obvious Plant
What's the issue here? That's just a protective coating to keep the high-quality copper underneath safe during shipping and handling.
I don't know what your problem is. You need to sand those fittings bright and shiny before you solder them anyway....
My dad collects coins, so I'm getting this for his birthday.

Man, what a legacy this man has. In th Lemmy app I use, the top of the was cut off in the thumbnail and so all I saw were the fittings and I was like man Ea Nasir, you still haven't improved your supply? And then I opened the image and yep he's at it again.
