That is not limited to Home Depot. I once saw two ladies trying to fit three trollys full with an IKEA bedroom (bed, frame, mattresses, and a stack of PAX wardrobes, plus a heap of smaller items) into a compact car. A very compact car…
I didn’t see anyone link to the original!
The sleeping face tied up in twine is iconic
Cudos to the “My good gas mileage car can do this” crowd, though.
My VW Passat hybrid has carried more material on the roof rack than I’d be happy to admit.
Once again the minivan heavy portfolio pays.
*The damage to the drywall was like that from the store it was 75% off and being used to make some patches and fill a small renovation.
Have a camper minivan, and have on a number of occasions pulled the cushions out to haul.
It’s great having a work van.
My wife’s mum was helping me move everything from a two-bedroom unit, in a Toyota Yaris hatchback. Completely filled the car with stuff. It took maybe six or seven trips back and forth, but we got it done eventually.
This was before I had a drivers license or much money, so I couldn’t just rent a truck, nor could I afford to pay a mover.
The genus of these pictures is Artificilias. The species is intelligentia.
I don’t actually think a single of these photos are AI generated which is insane.
I was in college and needed to fix my apartment. I didn’t own a car and took the bus to Lowe’s. I called my buddy who had a car.
I’m in this picture.
I personally don’t know if they are real or not (they certainly don’t seem like it SHOULD be real). But maybe the text artifacts on the license plates and signs in the original post are just sponge tooled/liquefied to censor out businesses or a random person’s car identifier.
I’m leaning towards real, there’s signs in the background that have coherent text on them, instead of weird, unintelligible, almost-letters.
I’m leaning real too, the one where the guy destroyed his truck bed by ratchet strapping whatever that is to his wheel well is literally in the HD parking lot and that’s exactly what would happen if someone was stupid enough to try it. But the first one with the “Mazda” logo in the background, that one looks fake as hell, so I’m torn lol.
And this one makes absolutely no sense because a single search gives you hundreds of these pictures. It took more effort to generate these than to find them.
Imagine buying truck just for this moment and then screwed up the loading part.
I bought a locker a while back, like the kind you would find in the employee room of a closing bed bath and beyond. It didn’t quite fit as expected so we ended up just tying the back hatch as closed as it could with a single rope and took back roads the whole way home. I don’t think we went above 20mph for fear of the damage this giant steel box would cause if it fell out. Also got a tetanus shot the next day because I managed to rip my hand on its rusted foot. Good times, I love that locker
“I NEED TO DRIVE EVERYWHERE BECAUSE I CAN’T TAKE A LOAD OF TWO BY FOURS ON A BIKE!!!”
*buys car*
*does shit like this*
It’s the pickup, a car designed to carry shit, that is struggling to carry shit that does it for me. Do American DIY shops not do Home Delivery?
They do, it’s not cheap, like $50
If you’re buying $1000 worth of lumber $50 to ensure it gets home undamaged (and without damaging your car) is cheap. I’m pretty sure you can also elect to cut the boards in half to better fit them in a smaller vehicle.
50 bucks is cheap compared to destroying the bed of your truck, and spending thousands on material

Bonus: while the cursed, multi-directional-wheeled carts roll out from under them.
I prefer stuck mining equipment tbh
Genera?
Have, you lost Ted?
Pretty sure that’s Italian for genre. Or a weird typo/autocorrect error/both 😁
It’s actually English for “I’m so sneaky I found a way to bait people into commenting on my post”.
nope. it’s the plural.
The plural of genre is genres. The singular of genera is genus… Which might make sense here, but not as a plural.
Nope. Its genera in this context because they are discussing it as species.
They are pluralizing genus. Its a reference to it being a new “species” of image.
Your assumption of the word they are pluralizing was wrong.
Still wrong because they are refering to an individual “species” of image, so it would be genus not genera.
`Plural of genre. Still should have been singular “genre” though, unless there are multiple genera of these images.I was thinking of “genus”.
I think the word genre comes directly from the french word (“genre”, meaning “type”), which in the plural form is “genres”. I don’t think “genera” means anything, it’s probably a typo
They apparently couldn’t be bothered to to type out
Generated?
Yeah…no it isn’t.
Believe me, those folks with the small cars had a plan. They just got carried away. Always amazed at what I can get into my Yaris with a little creative thinking.
I got carried away with a 2004 Chevy Cavalier coupe at Ikea like 15 years ago. I bought a bedframe, nightstand, dresser, and a couple cheap wood chairs.
And then I saw a small cheap couch and decided to grab it impulsively on my way to checkout like it was a pack of gum or something.
I got everything except the couch to just barely barely fit, and I started looking at that huge box for the couch and thought “have I lost my mind” and had to go back in and return it right then and there
We got the 12 ft skeleton into my wife’s Honda Fit. I mean, the box wouldn’t fit so the employees helped us load every single piece in, but we got it all in!
Wow, a biblically accurate Honda accord
Omg this was me when my dad and brother told me they’d strapped down studs in the back of my dad’s escort wagon. After taking the first turn I discovered that was a lie
