“What got me thinking about this is that I was at one of the retailers I frequent, where I’ve spent quite a bit recently. He actually asked me to buy one of these (similar price, not these) and after I thought about it I was pretty insulted. Did he think I was a pigeon? I don’t know about the rest of you, but I didn’t make my money by being anyone’s fool.”
So you felt insulted by this retailer and thought of venting your frustration here...great. The only point you made with your post is you’re one of those individuals willing to diss a product without even trying.
BTW, pigeons are extraordinarily intelligent birds 😉
