Starting a profession that needs tools, but can't afford Dewalt, Festool, or Milwaukee? Wal-Mart has you covered with their in-house tool brand, E-Stink. When you think quality tools, think E-Stink!

Well, I took the screen grab myself from the Wal Mart website, so unless Wal Mart themselves are posting fake products for the yuks....

I’ve been getting some weird rear end ads from wal mart lately too on Instagram. One advertised the Flipper Zero hacking tool thingy and some other bizarre stuff that is never expect wal mart to sell. I think they’ve been morphing into an Amazon clone for a while

Tool battery converters have been a thing for a long time.

Walmart's site is an open vender market like amazon. So whoever is selling estink is probably just some random chinese store with a walmart listing.

You can find tool battery converters on Amazon too. Off brand batteries too.

Well, TIL. I've no idea why clerk is pronounced with an "a" sound here, but I assumed it was like that everywhere.

"killthesavages"? Isn't that just how everything's pronounced in Britain/Australia?

edit: I'm sorry this was overly harsh to Australia - I believe there everything is just pronounced "shipemalltoanislandmate"

As an Australian I don't think I've encountered anyone outside of very rural places that pronounce clerk and Clark the same. Honestly it's more weird that the "ar" and "er" are often overemphasized.
