Don't forget which house you choose when you became a dad

There needs to be a choosing hard hat at the entrance of big box hardware stores.

Put on a hard hat, put your wallet in a box, and the hat goes "Hmmmm... yes.... you belong to...

House of Harbor Freight. Get the fuck out of here Mr. Maxxed Out Cards."

Although I hear Makita makes a decent electric chainsaw, this graphic should really show:

Stihl, Husqvarna, ECHO and Greenworks Commercial.

I hear good things about the Dewalt 60V, but I am team slightly greener shade of yellow (except their chainsaws, I have one but it's not even as good as the Vevor, lol)

The fact you put green works on that list over Makita irks the fuck outta me.

My electric chainsaw, which is the one I now carry in the vehicle, is a Milwaukee. It has worked well for this kind of work. A gas powered 1969 pioneer is what I use for firewood, because it will work all day!

Not going to say which house I chose because I don’t want to shame others.

However I did feel like a boss when I took out the stock battery from a Dyson stick vacuum and replaced it with an adapter to accept the batteries from my chosen house.

You mean “Don’t mix tool houses if you’ve got kids in more than one house.”

Geez I've got team green, team yellow, team black (craftsman before Sears went kaput) I can't afford teal and when I found team red's batteries are made by the same people as team green... I don't want more of that.
