How do they make profit on antique stores?
Grandmas who own antique stores... I understand the premise: You got a bunch of old shit that you should probably throw away, but there's a one in a million chance that a hippie, fellow grandma or Martha Stewart fan will buy your dated, worthless trash.
There's no maintenance involved in antique stores. Even if a store owner did furnish or repair their products, no one would notice - but somehow, SOMEHOW, they manage to stay in business for decades.
I don't get how it works. Of all the tourist traps out there, when is the last time someone felt trapped into buying something? These grandmas just sit there all day and night, reading and knitting, and no one buys anything. But they make profit? C'mon now, what the fuck is going on here?
If somebody buys an antique and it breaks, that's expected. There is no 30-day warranty or credit toward another item. These grandmas have been waiting years to sell that 1947 Mickey Mouse lamp, and when someone's dumb enough to buy it and it doesn't work, they act surprised.
I tried to sell my 1984 Macintosh HD and no one took a stab at it - I even offered California Raisin action figures at no extra cost. What gives? Apparently, there's a fine line between vintage, antique and old shit that I clearly don't have an understanding of.
Why don't Jews get proper representation for liking chicken, too?
Black people LOVE chicken. Blah, blah, blah. Jews probably love chicken even more. Well, it's not that we LOVE it, but our mothers cook up a new chicken every three days. Legend has it, the ancient Jewish mothers fed their children breast-chicken, not breast-milk....... OY VEY, that was a terrible joke.
Here's the deal, if you put a starving Black man and a starving Jew in a cage with fried chicken in the middle, obviously the Black guy would win a fight for it, but if it were a bidding war, the Jew would win - that counts for something.
Do you really think a Jew would pass up a chance to feast at KFC or order 20 chicken McNuggets? We would eat that bullshit every day if we could, but we never get the credit Black people do for loving it so much.
Jews were raised on chicken. Don't forget it.
Now if you'll excuse me, my Mickey Mouse lamp is flickering and I need to change the bulb.
