I have always just assumed that stuff like this is a trial balloon for real scamming later on. Like, a scammer makes an innocuous “forward this!!!” facebook status and releases it into the wild, then knows that anyone who passes it on is a dupe who will be a good target for active scamming in the future.
How would they know who forwarded it though?

How the gently caress do they pronounce it?
La-croy. Which always makes me imagine that the person who named it didn't want to admit they made a mistake and just doubled down on it, like "No, I said it that way intentionally, I know the proper pronunciation, I just wanted to be different I swear! It's definitely la-croy, intentionally, no mistakes!"

LaCroix being pronounced 'La Croy' is loving tragic, because goddamn is it a fantastic play on words if it would be pronounced correctly.

Ok, I guess I get to be that guy, but how is it supposed to be pronounced? I'm trying it weird ways but I'm not getting any word play.

In this case (as in the product) it is supposed to be pronounced la croy to rhyme with joy. It's an actual french name/place which would be pronounced la qwah.

Oh hey, it's that guy David Foster Wallace did an article about. Nice to see he's still a huge shithead.

Yes, her Aunt Fritzi. She predated Nancy as a hot young flapper, then Nancy moved in and became the more popular character. Fritzi Ritz got demoted to Nancy's caregiver. She's shown up in the new Nancy pretty regularly.

I'm excited that so many restaurants are carrying Topo Chico now, but half the time I order it the waiter has no idea what I'm talking about.

LaCroix is super good because unsweetened carbonated water is the best-tasting thing you can drink. All the flavors are good, except for coconut. How do you screw up coconut??

if there weren't a conspiracy keeping them down they'd have to face the fact that nothing they believe in makes any drat sense. they like the communist liberal soros deep state conspiracy because it makes it even easier to discard inconvenient facts, and also perhaps more importantly so they can claim they're victims

they picked soros as the puppetmaster because he's jewish
