Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Asshole tax. Prices have to be raised to cover the losses from theft.
So true. Just one piece of the larger problem, but definitely a piece
They are probably headed straight to the salvage yard. Looked like lots of copper that can be scrapped at a premium.
BRB i needs weedeater wire. Jackpot
Masks and por policy =hooliganism
Hooliganism is a great word.
Oh I have stories.Hooliganism is a great word.
I thought that was always policy. That’s taking on a lot of liability to expect an unarmed cashier to do something about loss prevention.
Yeah I guess that makes sense, but the boundaries of it are being pushed more than ever right now
I worked at Nike outlet part time 22 years ago when my wife was pregnant and that was the policy then. All you could do was follow them and ask if they needed assistance. There was one guy that worked the entire SE that would randomly be at the store that was allowed to detain people. People just don't care now cause they know they won't get prosecuted.
