Took my kids skating today and realized my youngest daughter forgot her gloves... Begrudgingly popped into a local department store to get her a pair...
"Sorry sir our winter wear is out of season." Standing next to a window, during a blizzard with over a foot of snow on the ground....
The merchandising 6 months ahead world is fucking retarded.
They cucked out after one of the "mass shootings". Might've been Vegas or the FL nightclub; don't remember.
They turned completely anti-gun and I'm pretty sure they had their existing inventory destroyed rather than finish selling or liquidating.
In many Southern towns, it was practically a death sentence. Ours has been hanging on by a thread since then, and now that we have an Academy, they're pretty much toast.
Edit: Bass Pro and Cabella's are neat stores, but it's typically hard to find good deals at them.
Edit 2: It was the Stoneman Douglas one in Broward County.
I don't even know what would be around here. I think they all got put out of business by WalMart and Target.
Bass pro Shop I have to haul my ass all the way across town, and you don't want to be in that part of town after dark. (I don't think anyone would be retarded enough to do stuff in a Bass Pro Shop parking lot but still)

Funny you mention that; I don't recall one of those stores not having at least one squad car parked somewhere in the lot, sometimes next to a port-a-tower.
Do you know how stupid children grow to be responsible adults? By having to suffer the consequences of their actions.
Little Sally forgot her gloves? Tough shit there kiddo. Cold hands for you today, suck it up.
And for all you whining about the consequences of the global economy and the reality of a modern supply chain this is the exact result of everyone insisting on shopping where everything is the cheapest. It drove manufacturing offshore and forced retailers to tighten up their purchasing cycle so that they are guaranteed to sell out of seasonal goods before the season ends, rather than have to warehouse old stock until next year.
You cheap, short sighted fuckers did this. Stop your fucking moaning.
When I was a kid, my mother sewed my gloves and mittens together with yarn. I rocked those mitten and glove sleeves like a champ. I loved always being ready for a snowball fight while the Puerto Rican kids would have to give up due to numb fingers.
Yeah, that’s global warming at work. 😅 I keep a pair at home and a pair in my truck. For kids; you’d probably require a +2 surplus, cause they lose them. I’m an old fuck, but I remember when moms would sew, and they would tether our gloves to the sleeves of only coat so we couldn’t loose them.
Amazon has gloves, year round. They’re going to put everyone out of business.
Yeah, are you crying? If the kids mom had sewn the gloves to her coat, there wouldn’t have been a problem with the gloves being left behind. Women solved this reoccurring problem a few hundred years ago.
If it seems weird to you, then I’ll bet you were an orphan.
What’s with the aggression, are you retarded? I said your mommy story moved me, I wish to return to olden times. I think your mommy dropped you on the head as a baby.
