yeah, it's dumb, but that's the point. It's a joke. Might as well have a go at the people who make fake plastic dog poop or those plastic ice cubes with fake flies in them.

I don't think you're supposed to actually remove it from the wrapper. I could see it being a magician's prop just for a cheap laugh.

At least there's some novelty in finding people who can actually produce that product, and good package design.

Pick posted:At least there's some novelty in finding people who can actually produce that product, and good package design. When you think about all the ridiculous cheap senseless crap that gets churned out of factories all over the 3rd world it's really no surprise that they could find someone to produce this new cheap senseless crap. At least I guess it'll give the sweatshop workers who've been spending 16 hours every day since they were 10 making fake plastic vomit something new to work on?? (Also their parents and grandparents spent 16 hours a day making fake plastic vomit, that stuff has been around since at least the 30s.) Fake edit: I'm kidding, I'm sure SMBC will source their cheap senseless crap from a factory with ethical employment practices.

The SMBC thing is being manufactured by a factory in NJ that exclusively employs people with developmental disabilities as a way of making sure they have job skills available.

Methinks he's just grasping at straws for ways he can get money out of people. Like, he actually spends hours and hours coming up with ideas, tossing a few papers at his overflowing trashbin, etc. So long that he actually can't come up with anything that would actually make money, such as "take familys advice and get job".

Yeah but it's only because he needs money to buy his 3d software, 2d animation software, top of the line wacom tablet, etc. etc. He literally can't do anything without those, you understand, that's why he needs the money! Duh!

Even if he's got nothing but the most basic computer/webcam setup I'd have a quantum of respect for his aspirations if he bothered with a flipbook or sketched storyboard held up to the camera. If duder is struggling I'm not even asking for Bristol, copy paper or something, goddamn.

I was watching Jodorowsky's Dune and that's pretty much how they presented images from the book so you could see what everyone who worked on it or seen the book. And that was good enough.
