It is currently March 10th, so it is now Mario Day. Because Mar10 looks like MarIO.

Mario day is the laziest marketing that I’ve seen in some time. Mar10 = Mario. Wtf Nintendo didn’t even try this hard for Pokémon 25th anniversary last year.

I figure it's their version of Star Wars marketing using "May the 4th be with you".

By that same note, June should be PlayStation month, because PlayStation rhymes with GayStation.
 
Didn't see anyone point this out while scrolling back through chat, but because of the obi-wan didney shit reveal a few days ago, within fucking minutes of the inquisitor guy being a character in it literally everything that has him in it is now over 100 fucking dollars, and there's "value speculator"videos and shit that are clearly just trying to sell scalped goods. Prices aren't going to go down for a while thanks to scalper-squatters but demand is gonna be nil from anyone other than the desperate and consoomers willing to blow loads of cash especially if the fucking show is shitty like the boba fett one was.
There's enough merch of the fucking inquisitor to go around becaus e the series he's from is the one from a few years back people were shitposting about due to characters randonly being able to use lightsabers to fucking fly like helicopters despite it making no god damn sense.

You know, I consoom some product. I even collect it.

And I keep it in a small part of a small room in my house and don't post pictures of it online or otherwise talk about it with many people. But the people that do know about my pillow collection love my pillow collection.

I just saw a woman in a tshirt with The Beast's silhoutte and DADDY written in Disney font.
Wanted to die. Please, tell me it is not official B&tB merch.

Not to PL, but I used to be heavily involved in the arts & craft show world and knew so many ladies just like this that when I first saw that skit I about died. Yeah, some of them are sad sacks that bounce around from gig to gig wearing out their ADD interest or welcome. So what, still funny. Get your shit together Tracy.

Cricut merchandising! A coonsoomer market angled towards bored wealthy housewives who have a little creativity and a lot of money. I worked at a shop that sold them and we sold one a year or so, because they’re like 1400 with all the Disney licensing that gets bundled in. It’s a really interesting tool but it’s most often used to literally just print Minnie Mouse on a grandkid’s sweater. Or make disgusting joke shirts weirdo wine aunts can wear I guess.
 
"nostalgia"

This isn't nostalgia, it's just a pile of random old shit that was made between 1988 and 1999. Nobody who listened to Nirvana or Metallica was buying Tiger Beat or Spice World posters. And there's no actual home decorating idea expressed here, it's just clutter piled up on what looks like a low budget soap opera set.

At best this looks like a set for a T.V show set in the 90's. I can imagine it's the average girl next-door who just hit puberty and consumes everything popular. Basically the female version of the nerdy male character who liked Stat Wars and played video games.

It'll probably still be less obnoxious than May the Fourth or Pi Day.

The popularization of Pi Day is a a billion times worse than Mario day, it's nothing but Pop Science bullshit that nobody gave a shit about until twitter rolled around so you could make a hashtag out of it.

However there is a special retardation about May the Fourth because it is nothing but astroturf created by Disney.

I mean I did, but I was also an outlier who enjoyed different types of media for their own merit I guess.

I'm tired of the selling nostalgia shit though, just let it die and sit in our memories to member about together in peace on a porch while having drinks and a laugh.

After talking to a fuckton of people: literally everyone does the "I like X, but will also mix in some cheap pop thing I also enjoy". Or this is specifically a women's thing.

I think some people are just more willing to admit it than others. Suggesting you might like Dolly Parton's 9 to 5 might ruin someones super hardcore black metal gamer image.

There’s something about people who hoard video games that particularly annoys me. Personally I can’t stand owning a game that I’ll never play or a book I’ll never read; it’s the very definition of wastefulness.

Like I know for a fact the YouTuber’s that have shelves filled top to bottom with games have probably played less than 10% of them. These online personas feel so fake and gay yet they think by having tons of gamer crap in the background it somehow makes up for it.

The worst part of it all is that I’ve realized that personalities such as the AVGN who I used to really enjoy back in the day are partially responsible for this trend of having tons of crap in the background of their videos.

I'm guilty of the video game hoarding to a degree but they are all games I would actually play. I know people who buy games just for the sake of buying them. This one dude I know bought the Chicken Little movie game for OG Xbox. There's a 0% chance he'll actually sit down and play it. It's just there to fill out his xbox games shelf.

Disney World struggling to fill 100-room, $5,000 'Star Wars' hotel​

Archive: https://archive.ph/kBtLV
Ed. Note - I'm putting the images outside the "article".
Guests who check the “start planning your voyage” page will nearly have their pick of dates through the second half of 2022. Almost every day in August, September, October, November and December is available. There are still “voyages” in June and July, too, including a number of weekends. According to the page, availability information was last updated Saturday at 11:16 a.m. Eastern Standard Time.

The immersive “Star Wars” experience opened March 1. For two adults, the starting price is about $5,000. For three adults and one child, it’s nearly $6,000. Guests must book a two-night stay, which includes admission to Hollywood Studios on the second day to visit the “Star Wars” land Galaxy’s Edge there.

Reviews have generally been positive, with some caveats. Most reviewers noted people who aren’t willing to let go of self-consciousness and engage fully in the storylines probably won’t find the experience worth it. The hotel is supposed to replicate a galactic cruise liner called the Halcyon, and lodgings are small and only have windows looking out onto a screen replicating outer space. Reviewers likened them to a “windowless bunker” and a “suburban junior high school built in the mid-1970s.” It also lacks the amenities usually expected in hotels at this price point, like a pool and spa.

Praise has been effusive for the character actors who populate the Starcruiser, however. Along with Rey, Kylo Ren and Chewbacca, guests meet a cast of cruise ship workers who encourage them to fight for the resistance and take on secret missions. Reviewers tend to agree that the astronomical cost is about paying for the experience, not the rooms themselves.

Guests looking to book the Galactic Starcruiser cannot do so online. They must call 407-939-1800.

I like Star Wars but $5000 for a two day experience is outrageous no matter how immersive. Slight powerlevel but I'll use this as a reference. I flew cross country to Utah skied for three days, snowmobiled a day, and fucked around for a day. That was a little under $3k. You could even pretend you were on Hoth if you really wanted to.

I feel like these people are completely detached from reality. It's kind of sad that the only identity they have is a 45 year old scifi movie series and are unaware stuff exists beyond it. But then it's hard to feel bad for someone dropping $3k a day to swing a plastic lightsaber around.
