Plagued Consoomers / Consoomer Culture - Because if it has a recogniseable brand on it, I’d buy it!

Call me old fashioned or whatever you want. No way I'd wait in line in the cold for hours just for some stupid cup even if my kid wanted it. Why is his kid dressed like that when she's ten? Pretty sure Jodie Foster wore more in Taxi Driver and she was playing a child prostitute in that movie.
the difference between this being depressing and cute depends on whether or not he's the one putting these stupid consumerist ideas in his daughter's head, or if she's the one who wanted to do it and he came along
i can't deny there's something a bit charming about going out and waiting for several hours in the cold with your kid to get something they wanted, that's the kinda nonsense most parents won't put up with

at the same time tho, the way he acts, speaks and behaves, and well... the fact that this is on tiktok.... leads me to believe he actively encourages this kinda lifestyle in his child

Considering he is using his daughter's birthday to do a paid promotion for Tropicana is in entirely possible the Stanley cup video was sponsored by the brand as well. And he is absolutely using his 10 yr old daughter dressing slutty to get clicks for these shitty brands.

I used to think the slutty kid clothing was just some creepy trend related to how pornsick the younger generations are getting, but I seriously wonder if it is more insidious. Think about it, pedos don't want to get caught but they can see these kids dressed like this and get away with it.

Fucking disgusts me and makes me hate modernity more.
 
Speakinhg of childrens board book propaganda a few posts ago reminded me of this. This was back in January 2023 I just never had a good place to post them. I always thought these Hershey ads were pretty funny.
Like, you have Supe's who y'know, classic "Be the change you wanna see" type stuff

Then you have POCbatman who, even though less enthusiastically than supes, also encourages you to be good.

Then you have wonder woman who has nothing besides telling you that she, a black woman, is Wonder Woman. Lol. Lmao even

I guess she couldn't read the cue cards.

As an aside, I love how Wonder Woman seems to be the most mishandled capeshit property to ever exist. They don't know if they want her to be black, woman representation/symbol or if they just want her to be female Superman or what.

I mean her creator was a dude in a poly love cult of his own creation called the Love Unit and was into bondage, which is why she started off being tied up all the time and whipping people. Trying to figure out where to go from there once they realized why she was written the way she was might be confusing.

She's got the same problem as Thor where she's a superhero who has inspiration from mythology, so you get people arguing if Cheetah or Ares is her archenemy.

On top of that, you get writers that decide to completely reboot her. The most famous instance of that was during her "Agent Diana Prince" era where they tried to make her an Emma Peel knockoff by taking away her powers and making her a secret agent that used martial arts. And then there's Azzarello's run that completely redid her backstory and threw out all of her supporting cast and rogue's gallery.
 
The stanley cup stuff has to be the most blackpilling consoomer object-of-desire recently. With chunko pops, they're atleast somewhat diverse and connected to something culturally, same with pokemon cards. These are just red cups.
Even at the height of the pokemon craze during covid I don't think I saw people jumping over starbucks counters, beating an employee, then trying to run out the store with an entire box while being tackles by bystanders. This is some peak Black Friday era shenanigans over just one item, before BF became boring.
 
Dad films his kid buying expensive sports cards, comments roast them.
Part of me wants to think this was staged for clout.
The retro video game store around where I live recently came into possession of a copy of The Flintstones for NES. It's a very rare game worth a lot of money. They took a photo of it and posted it to Facebook to announce they had the game. A few days later they posted another photo, this time of some literal retard holding the game and smiling announcing the game had been sold. The dude paid $1,199 for it. Just the cartridge. I get the same vibe from this video.

Was it even a good game or do people only want it because there's only 5 in existence?

I wasn't asked, but the latter. I don't think any sane person, who wants to play a videogame, would pay more than $50 for one. An NES one especially.

As for the game itself, I like that it has a ledge hang, and fred's leg and duck movement; but I have no idea how it plays.

At this point they should just get the logo seared onto their ass if they love brands that damn much.


Does anyone actually give a shit about Yeti Stanlely cups? All I see online are negative reactions to the hype. All of it feels very manufactured. I refuse to belive consoomers are this broken.

Also, apologies for the wrong quote. I am gay and retarded.
