I get people are arguing about fake/AI, but… KMART is still alive and kicking? I thought they died off like Radio Shack and Blockbuster.
on the shitpost meter, you score 60%
You’d get all this shit in the seam
At least you’ll always have them with you.
Apparently there’s a whole market.
A hole market if you will
I… Impressive.
now that’s actually cool.
I would not trust that.
We are done. People who can identify an AI image are now the minority and the mass will be fooled and yet choose to be confidently wrong about it.

It’s a butt plug in a department store, of course it’s fake.
Department stores do carry sex toys. Obviously not Kmart since that hasn’t been a thing in like 20 years but Target and such places do have them on the shelves.
Nobody thinks this is a real image in a Kmart. They just dispute whether the obviously fake image was photoshopped or generated by AI.
The butt plug image used is AI but also from the company that sells them: https://craverise.com/products/stainless-steel-hidden-key-box-butt-plug
That does not mean that putting the AI image in that context for humorous purposes was done in AI.
It is also trivial to strip watermarks so checking for watermarks isn’t reliable. Not all gen AI images are even created with watermarks. It’s like checking an optional note from a parent.
We should just call stuff fake if that is what matters. Whether it is gen AI or photoshop is far less important than being fake.
I’m weirdly disappointed the real product has a gem in the base.
So, the image is fake, but the product exists. Also, Kmart does sell a few sex toys. So, the only lie here is that Kmart sells this particular sex toy, as it does not.
Many years ago, before Walgreens started selling sex toys in store, I bought a hitachi magic wand from them. (This was before their mainstream adoption as a sex toy, and they were not labeled as such on their site. They were significantly cheaper there than at places selling them as sex toys.)
But to your point - many believable lies contain plausible truths.
The first clue was Kmart honestly.
Also pretty sure it’s a non-standard logo for Kmart too.
There’s other details but that was a major one for me.
You know, on top of the idea of this somehow getting sold in a box store which is silly enough to begin with.
Actually no; that is both the correct logo for KMart in Australia AND its own internal brand Anko:
She jingles loudly while she dances,
Leading oft to pantsless romances.
Careful early planning, she stays worry free,
As her bottom always holds the key.
You’re welcome.
… To her bottom.
Please do not put anything from Kmart inside you. It will almost certainly break
It’s a Blue
LightBall Special.
Looks like AI
Smells like AI, too
Until used, then it’ll smell like something else
pam image: they’re the same smell
I mean you gotta wash it
Kmart???
there are 3 left i the US and 300 in Australia. Other stores that disappeared from my city but still exists somewhere else: Radio Shack, Blockbuster, Winn Dixie, Bi-Lo…would definitely do nostalgia stop if close to one of these
Huh… This comment sent me down a Wikipedia rabbit hole. Australian Kmart is a separate company and brand from the American one. We also had a Bi-Lo until maybe 15 years ago that was also unrelated.
We had RadioShack and Blockbuster too, but they were the same brand.
Aw man I forgot about bi-lo, food city swooped in and it just faded into a distant memory
Well no one’s gonna grab it are they
If it was in your ass you’d know.
never lose keys again
I guess if it pops open then they won’t be “lost”, but the flared base won’t help get them out.
Does it fit a wrist watch?
