OP encountered this on his phone. Eventually realized swiping will help you to see things that are off the current screen.

Maybe it should have been Target Archery to avoid confusion?

Reminds me of this one time at Bandwagon…

Waste of money. Build the chair to go up and down instead.

Yippee ki yay.

Don’t forget “get the girl.”

I don’t know how to answer your question, but I do have a long unrelated anecdote to share followed by some questions of my own.

Reminder that Best Buy used to serve up a different Best Buy website if you were accessing it from their store kiosks. You would see a deal advertised on their site from home, drive to the store, and then they’d feign ignorance and have you try to find the deal again while there.
