      a midwestern knockoff of a lowes with some extra product selection you’d find at a walmart or farm store; owned by a far-right, anti-union billionaire.

        A pirate is at a party and a fellow party-goer notices the pirate has a wheel in his pants.

        “What’s the wheel for,” they ask the pirate.

        “Arr,” replies the pirate, “I don’t know, but it be drivin’ me nuts.”

      Since nobody actually answered the question: Menards is a massive hardware store chain in the Midwest. When I say it’s massive, it has everything you could ever need in a hardware store and more. Like there are usually multiple floors, a lumber yard, highly specialized sections, and even a small grocery section with food, pet supplies, clothing, etc. it’s definitely the greatest hardware store ever conceived, but unfortunately the man who owns them is batshit crazy in classic Wisconsin fashion.

        Aww man I’ve never been to a two-floor+ Menards :( none of the ones around me are (they do have the lumber loft but that hardly counts).

        Now I feel like I’m missing out.
