I just finished watching this, and it sort of fucked me up. This girl admitted she paid these exorbitant prices for... a day of eating? How can people justify wasting this type of money? Spending up to $15,000 to eat and get valet parking is actual lunacy.

Even if you can easily afford it, I again question why. Personal chef's for an evening have to be way cheaper unless you go for some celebrity chef, and even though there's 12 spots and your friends can split the bill, it's still over $1,000 for a meal. Never in my fucking life would I ever pay that much money for a single dining experience. And you know this isn't really marketed for the "rich" because I doubt rich people would even waste their time going to Disneyland where they'd be forced to see Common Folk. This really seems tailored to get those hardcore Disney fanatics to blow their money for a chance of being treated "richly".

Which is just... sad. (:_(
Nah, it's the same with gambling and shit like that. Companies aren't forcing anyone to use money on them, people are deciding to be dumb of their own will. Even though it seems like Disneytards don't have a will of their own, which I see as a reason to be deemed as having a mental deficiency.
It's immoral of companies to prey on them, but as long as there's no law against it. It's going to continue.

Like, it sucks. But at the same time, I really don't feel bad for them.

Companies spend a lot of money on people with knowledge of the human psyche. To make people more risky to spend money (music, smells, things you can see).
But honestly, I doubt it really works on FUNCTIONAL adults, no mental deficiency or anything.

So the whole thing is more of tard wrangling larping as "psychology".
 
Oh wow, an "epic reusable glass bottle." As opposed to all those other glass bottle with twist tops that self destruct after you use them? Is this marketed to retards? Not to mention that this bottle isn't really recyclable because it is a unique bottle shape.

Not sure about the bottle shape, I thought all glass bottles were recyclable and shape didn't matter. But I've definitely noticed a trend of brands pushing "reusable" products when it doesn't really make sense and it's kind of greenwashing. For example, there is this greenwashing brand love beauty & planet that's owned by some conglomerate (forget which one) that does shit like this:

"Reusable pump bottle" but like.. every pump bottle is reusable, this isn't special. And the refills are in plastic bottles, but they claim buying this extra bottle is somehow using less plastic. They could at bother putting the refills in aluminum, too, and nothing stops you from buying the refill bottle which is 25% cheaper and just using that because most people don't use pump bottles for shampoo already. It's just a weird way of justifying an extra product and pretending it's somehow green.

Here's another one, a "refillable" mouthwash bottle that you dump smaller plastic bottles of mouthwash into and mix with water. How is that better than the current system most people use, which buying and using one bottle at a time? Pouring multiple bottles into a different bottle isn't saving anything. They try to claim the small bottles are using less plastic but in my specific area those bottles they claim are recyclable aren't actually, so this is way worse than regular mouthwash bottles (which I don't even use anyway, I just think this product is so ridiculous)

There are a few other examples, but the general trend is the company selling like a fancy holder item at an upcharge to hold the "refills" when you could just use a bottle you already had for whatever they're proposing.

I like pwetty packaging, as it looks a bit messy in the bathroom cabinet. If you have a normal amount of stuff in there.
But you coud buy something cheaper that fits, because it’s all made for cheap in China anyway.

>Not buying pump heads and using empty bottles for your dispensers
Get on my level.

What the- that thing is $24? Why?
$20 for gum? "Refillable floss string"? BLUETOOTH TOOTHBRUSHES?

BLUETOOTH TOOTHBRUSHES?

It is intended to make you brush better, but it just feels retarded. And I'm not the only one who brushes their teeth in the shower. Damn foaming toothpaste make you look like you have rabies. I'm not taking my phone in the shower. Phones nowadays are water resistant, not waterproof, And if you don't change each year like a true coonsomer, the seals are going to degrade over time.

But about the pump dispenser on shampoos. It is much more common in Asia, ever seen shampoos in animu without pump dispenser? Didn't think so.
And it's more common for the whole family to share one big bottle of shampoo + cheap shampoos there are much friendlier on the hair. Meanwhile cheap ones in the west tend to dry out the life of the hair and scalp.

This is less the "dog terms" more the memetic phrases about alpha males and beta males, omega males are like the beta males that are like turbobetas, wizards, that kinda thing. Kinda sucks that omega males are the wimpiest ones with a badass name like omega you'd thinkthey'd be like death violence rip and tear types but no it's gayshit. This person should have a Sigma one too but not including it adds to the "rarest kind of male?!" meme.
 
I know it seems weird that I'm irrationally angry at this, but it's really disgusting to look up obscure (male) characters you like from a franchise and instead of finding nice art or maybe something interesting, you get to witness the absolute depravity of mentally ill girls jerking off on destroying them in every conceivable way. All in the name of flicking their sad bean and internet popularity
I understand you, I am in the same camp :(
And even if it is heterosexual, it is often pegging femdom derogatory shit.

Used to have statuses about kicking fujo asses on forums when I was younger because of that.

Look man it's gotten very hard to tell them apart, better safe than sorry.
Not my problem :P

Seriously, women can be ugly and evil and both, promise.

Damn foaming toothpaste make you look like you have rabies
Tooth powder (idk if you have it overseas) is even worse, once it starts getting foamy, it just runs outta your mouth on its own and you start looking like a bunch of overenthusiastic birds sat on you.
 
Never seen it, but Lush had those toothpaste tablets, that's basically the same I think?

They are. I tried some. You look like a fucking idiot with foam bursting out of your mouth in pastel green. The only good "toothpaste" stuff LUSH made was their gel and even then, I used it once a week as a substitute for my regular toothpaste because Sensodyne is getting expensive.

I wouldn't really recommend LUSH anyway. I mean, not just because they are a wokefest retard company and never shut the fuck up about VEGAAAAN, but most of their products are useless to begin with. I know their big market is bath bombs, but they expanded into a whole bunch of other crap made to get girls to waste hundreds of dollars on stuff you can find for cheaper elsewhere. Especially stuff like body lotion, which you can get 3 for $15 at Bath and Body Works instead of one measly black plastic tub for $20.

ugh.png

Just looking at this says everything on how insufferable they are. I'll stick to Bath and Body Works and Wal-Mart, thanks. At least they have shit that goes on sale quite often and is cheap.

:semperfidelis:I sincerely salute you for fighting back.
 
No, I'm not making this up. Fangirls are just as horrifically disgusting as men and they even have their own discord servers where they revel in who can come up with the most degenerate, horrible fetish to inflict upon their "favourite" male characters.

I always dreamed of writing a book and I thought that writing fanfics would be a good exercise. I’ve never been wronger in my whole life: Ao3 is basically badly written erotica. The vast majority of the works there are simply fetish pieces poorly disguised as original works and readers give feedback accordingly.
Most authors are indeed women but you have the occasional male.

Interestingly but unsurprisingly, extreme degeneracy is deeply intertwined with projection so you have two male characters doing unspeakable thing and then doing idyllic couple stuff, completely out of context. The result is a very schizophrenic ensemble.

There are a few hidden gems but... like very hidden.
 
Sensodyne
Apagard. Can't recommend that stuff enough. Buy one and your normal toothpaste and alternate which one you use.

IMO If you're going to pay their prices, just go with Pacifica instead.

Agreed. I've read some amazing fanfics but they're all things other people have recommended to me. I can never find them on my own. I always got too burnt out looking for things that were not just fujobait.

But why though? That one is extra weird because it seems like it's a knockoff of one of their old steamer trunks that they don't even make anymore.

and I see this subculture is on TikTok as well. I just need to start assuming anything stupid like this has an active TikTok tag. It's Zoomer-reddit.

"Fake shit for fake people" and all, but how sad is your life when you have to buy fake shit to feel fulfilled?
Wouldn't you feel better if you saved up to buy a Prada bag or treated yourself to a Chanel dress after a successful investment starts making excess income? That would give the item emotional and financial worth...
IDK, if I bought a fake high-tier designer item I'd live in eternal fear of getting exposed in public, especially since the nonces who buy these knock offs never get the hint that you're supposed to combine these with other genuine/fake items, and instead you have them using a """"$3000"""" "gucci" bag with $5 flipflops and an H&M $25 dress, or rock a """"$30000"""" "Hermes" handbag while shopping in Marshall's...

P.S. Knock off airpods? Why would you do that to yourself!?!?
The sound quality is going to be shit unless you can't tell a song from a fart.
Just buy a budget brand like soundcore or soundpeats which make decent wireless buds for a fair price and can output AAC/Aptx instead of SBC like shitty knockoffs do. There is no way in hell those fake airpods have an H1 chip inside.

Lol, gotta love how these thieves think they're robin hood or ackshually righteous because they say they won't steal from local business, but stealing from Christian stores or big business is a-ok.
Like what? The big business also employs people. People who will get fired if management sees too much thievery going on or who will lose their jobs when the store closes down because it's a bitch and a half to deal with insurance premiums in a rat-infested area.
You're not noble because you steal from anybody except old man Tyrone, you're just an asshole with delusions.

Jesus H, no más.
These take so much pride in being fake.
It's not "humility" or "smart shopping". It's being an empty ghoul who lie to themselves and react indignant if called out.
What's so great about Gucci/LV/Chanel anyway if you don't even have the satisfaction of owning the genuine article to flash around to fill that void in your heart?
You know it's a fake.
Fakers will know when they spot you with it on.
Fashion enthusiasts will spot you and your knock-off from a mile away, and the autistic ones will call you out right then, right there.
The only people you'll fool are the people who don't care about brands and thus give you no clout or praise.
It just boggles my mind why'd you'd want to buy a $50 knockoff that goes to shit in a few months vs buying a $40 reliable genuine article that will last you years even if it doesn't impress fashion autists.
