So how much candy did you buy?
Don’t go to costco, it is the same but with pallets
A lot of thought goes into grocery store plannograms to extract maximum value.
Costco is a different strategy, imo. Every six months or so they move shit around so you have to go on a fucking scavenger hunt to find the thing you’re looking for because it is not in the place that it usually is.

As should people who smack their food for extra flavor.
I mean, I get that. But this feels a bit different.
Like menthol cigarettes targetted at kids.
It’s the combination of the kids thing and the unhealthy food. And the utter shamelessness.
I do feel that regulation is a world where it’s obvious we are completely irrational manipulatable beings needs to be different.
Or some kid with diabetes should sue these ghouls.

While I realize “will-power” doesn’t play much role in most cases, if you start letting people who are fat sue companies because they sold crappy food to them the world will literally end.
Is it?
A world where companies can cause harm with no restrictions seems worse.
Plenty of countries have common sense regulations around what and how you can market to kids.
My trash company is unreliable when it comes to picking up my recycling.
This week, they picked it up, but they also took my recycling bin.

Maybe they’re recycling the bin.

Yeah! Russell’s Paradox doesn’t apply to recycling.
Next time throw an air tag in your recycle and one in your trash. Like 50/50 the end up in the same spot.

Another one:
My kid is in a parade in 20 minutes with his high school marching band. We, along with most people on our stretch of road, intentionally set up our chairs off the sidewalk so as not to block pedestrians.
A family just came and setup directly to our left on th sidewalk, partially blocking our view. There’s plenty of space to back up one step and put their chairs off the sidewalk.

“Common Sense” marketing regulations? What next, you won’t let us buy drugs and alcohol? Let’s get Capital to make Labor’s life bearable enough that cheap fatty foods, drugs, and alcohol aren’t needed to make life bearable before going after the poor marketers…
I just read about the Lions bungled spike at the end of the half yesterday and wanted to see a highlight. So I pull up the NFL’s Bucs/Lions highlight video. Two 15-second ads before I can start watching, and then 15-second ad plays every single time I try to click ahead in the video trying to find the play just before the half. Eventually gave up.

They want to make sure you don’t cheat them out of their ad even if it makes the whole experience a nightmare.

Fuck off google, not a big deal but just casual spoiling me with your AI bullshit
Holy shit.
You have to be really bad at the game to eat the first boot.
Lol
The person who got the first boot twice is actually regarded to be actually not bad at the game
But it is funny he got got first
Twice? They’ve played before?
