This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Why the fuck does it cost that much?!
One of the biggest things about capitalism is that they charge what people are willing to pay in order to maximize profit. Capitalism encourages this behaviour.
Because people will evidently pay that much for it. No idea why.
most stores have a generic version which is almost identical
mine's literally 30% cheaper, every time i think about the purchasing habits of the average person i have to go watch cat videos to stop the red mist from taking over and waking up with bite marks in the furniture
