There’s a Waffle House across the street. Gregg Phillips might teleport there (if we’re lucky) and certain other Republican politicians are banned.

“This is just AI slop!” --Half the people that are going to comment on this post.
Yes it is, I didn’t actually go to the moon and take a picture of a Dollar General. Sorry.
You could have just pasted a PNG of a Dollar General over a pic of the moon and nobody would have complained.
In fact we’d upvote and applaud the effort
you ever heard of a “graphics editor”?
I’m sorry, a what now?
I was going to ask why Dollar General is selling Internet Explorer and Outlook Express out of an ice merchandiser.
It’s going to be a Spirit Halloween so fast.
Is Dollar General the equivalent of Pound Land?
It’s more like a slightly more expensive Walmart, with even lower quality products and fewer staff members to handle operating the store so it’s always got empty shelves and/or dirty as shit.
What? Why’s it more expensive than Walmart? Do Dollar Generals sell electronics and appliances? Or do Walmarts not do that in the States? Lol
It’s their commitment to having all their prices end in a 0 or a 5. So it’s generally a few cents more expensive than Walmart.
And yes, they sell electronics and appliances. I got my food processor at a Dollar General. It’s a cuisinart, but it’s also small as fuck. But it was $15 so 🤷♂️
Probably. Often it’s a corner store around sprawling middle-class suburban areas on the outskirts of cities with few shops (zoning in the US is fucked), somewhat denser but low-income urban areas, and often it’ll be the only place besides a gas station in rural towns where you can get groceries without driving miles to a larger town. Unsurprisingly, they’re parasites.
Here’s an interior shot from their own website, so if you can imagine that but more soulless in reality, you have a Dollar General. I actually don’t consider myself that biased against DG in particular; the situation in America is kind of just that bad.
Yeah, if I ever walked into a DG that looked like that image I’d assume I was at the flagship store.
For the real experience:
- Move all of those shelves so that the aisles are about 1ft (~0.3m) tighter.
- From any point you can stand, you can see at least one display/section that looks to be one heavy footfall away from collapsing onto the floor.
- Nobody stocks, (re)organizes shelves, or “faces” product. That would eat into the profit margins. The products are unpacked and put out once, then never touched by employee hands again until they are scanned for purchase. If a customer picks something up and puts it down somewhere else then that item’s location is only known to them and whatever cruel god. You can often find nonperishable products in the wrong area that were discontinued years ago.
- Tile floor? If only you were so lucky. The floor appears, but cannot be confirmed, to have once been some form of green carpet many decades ago. Now it is some deep green, almost black solid sheet of matted “material” composed of trodden upon old gum, engine oil from the parking lot, and substances known only to the unspeakable outer gods. Congealed and compressed into a thin homogenous layer by the endless footsteps of the forsaken customers. Under the right hallucinogenics, you could be convinced that it is old rubberized tennis court floor long past its prime, but there is still something distinctly wrong about it. In your soul you know it was once carpet, and you cannot comprehend the path between that and what you behold under your feet.
- There is only ever two staff at most in the building, and you will only ever be allowed to percieve one. Attached to the register, unmoving like some sort of defeated gargoyle. Legends say the other employee is stationed on a desk chair in the closet they call a manager’s office, prepared to chase any ne’er do wells out with a bat as needed, but no one has witnessed this in recorded history.
- Things often cost more than a dollar. Bastards.
Remember that tesla elon musk illegally dumped into space? Imagine that junk crash into this, it would be very american.
