RadioShack Changes It’s Name To Something More Accurate.

Announced recently, RadioShack has changed it’s name to simply, The Shack. I couldn’t agree with this more. What better way to indicate to customers that they will be shopping at the shittiest, customer-hating-est, technology hovel in America than to name it after what to me sounds like a place homegrown terrorists camp inside of in the middle of the woods.

Correct me if I’m wrong be isn’t RadioShack supposed to be a place to buy electronics? Is there anything less technologically advanced than the concept of a shack? It’s the lowest end of actual construction. I mean, sure you have your caves, your lean-tos and your nomadic tents, but I mean, once you get construction materials involved, Shacks were what people built right after they stopped hunting and gathering.

In a world where Frys and Best Buy exist (neither of which are great by the way) why would anyone even go to “The Shack?” Unless you want a set of rabbit ears that don’t even work or to have a conversation with a “sales man” who doesn’t know what a battery is, there is no goddamn reason to even think about walking into a “The Shack.”
