Honestly, child me would be so upset to find out that now I have a job and some level of disposable income I am not buying the daggers and swords from the gas stop.

"They have a Glamdrung replica, don't you want to be like Gandalf?"

My inner child keeps nagging me to buy a real sword, which I have absolutely no use or room for.

Dude truck stops have some crazy shit sometimes. I went to one with katanas, giant velvet tapestries of tigers, statues that look like 3D renderings of Frank Frazetta paintings.

I think all truckers want to be Conan.

Gotta decorate your truck cab somehow

[–] BoxedFenders@hexbear.net 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Those are all the perfect items to furnish a long haul trucker's sleeper cab.

Honestly, yeah. If I have to be stuck sleeping in a metal box in Midwest parking lots for days on end I'm decorating that box to look like a fucking Castle Rat concert.

Sounds lovely. Throw some candles in there.

The midwest has the most high-level monsters outside the town gates, so naturally their merchants accumulate artifacts adventurers have foolishly failed to cast identify on

fyi they usually have terrible stats, just pick them up if you want to unlock the skin

Broke my mind a little bit when I found out why so many gas stations carry shoelaces

I will never elaborate

[–] Abracadaniel@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

Why's that?

[–] Feed_el_Castro@hexbear.net 6 points 1 week ago

Please elaborate

[–] Carl@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

i don't think I've ever seen shoelaces at a gas station.
