Well you know I'm not rural. It never connected for me that these were originally for putting in fence posts.

I'm gen Z, grew up in the city, and I know what that is because we used em in the Boy Scouts. It's for pounding fence posts into the ground. The other end is welded shut and you put the post in the ground, put it over top of it, and pick it up and slam it down a buncha times
They also make ideal launchers for fire works:) especially in areas where the local police get pissy despite them being legal, you can go out to the country side, mount it upside down and fire off some rockets and yank it out and move a few county roads over before the sheriff can arrive.
... Or so I'm told.
Please just don't do this during a drought or burn ban. So many fucking fires caused by fireworks each year. So dumb. Don't do it.
are you calling me old?
What do I win if I own one? It's red.
Soreness!
A headache. I have a yellow one lol
Mine too! Home Depot?
Post driver! They have hand held gas powered ones now BRrRrRrRrRrRrPppPPpp
I was literally looking to buy one since I just bought a house and need to use one.
Edit: just read the actual title. C'mon man, this is boomer humor type of stuff.
I've used one to set t-posts for steel targets before a match. It's ever so much easier and faster than using a small sledge hammer.
I thought this was a weird mixer attachment at first
I used one a couple weeks ago to put up supports for my grape vines. But when I was a teenager I had a horse and was constantly rotating his grazing area so I am very familiar with it.
Ooo so fancy. Mine was the old fashioned that looked like two really curvy shovels joined together at the hilt.
