    Definitely Jesus. I want to eat popcorn while I watch Christo-fascists and the prosperity gospel crowd hysterically calling Jesus a terrorist because he took a flamethrower to their vile McChurches.

      It would almost be worth going to hell as a nonbelieving heretic if I could see Jesus actually return and start whipping republicans and evangelicals through the street while they decry him as a child grooming liberal homosexual communist.

    RadioShack was great when every electronic was analog and you needed some random VGA to RCA adapter at 9pm on a weekday

    Jesus. He is slated to return one day anyway but we need him now to show republicans what christianity is all about

    I would prefer Microcenter make smaller versions of their stores. Like Micro-Microcenters.

    It was sad to see RadioShack turn into a cellphone store as the maker spaces, 3d printing and hobby pc building all took off and needs a modern version of RadioShack. Same with Sears, they cancelled their home shopping catalog the year Amazon started shipping online

    Jesus. Imagine how much of the world would react if

    1: jesus literally proved he existed to faiths that say he’s a hoax (im agnostic btw)

    2: He reforms the groups that use his name as a pretext to exclude & marginalize others.

    3: Dude turned out to have been gaming like a boss in heaven, like dude comes down & faces the pope in Dungeons & Dragons or Pokemon lmfaooo

    As an almost 40yr old now father, this is such a hard choice. Except Jesus. I’ll never get to see that magic of the face of my child (4yr) the first time we would walk in. Or, the magic of my own face every time I went into a RadioShack. Blockbuster was just a cool place overall.

    What good is Blockbuster when streaming exists?

    What good is Toys R Us when kids don’t play with toys anymore and I definitely can’t afford to obsessively collect toys like those who came before me?

    Jesus - no

    RadioShack was a niche tech store with niche tech stuff. No need to wait an absurd amount of time for random stuff online.

      I miss video rental stores.

      The exploration, the smell of fresh popped popcorn, the excitement.

    I’d like to bring back the market environment that made Radio Shack profitable - when the “right to repair” was a given, and not something that needed to be fought for in court.
