Someone should kickstart the opposite of this, where you smack the button and air raid sirens go off with robot voice just says "i'm horny" over and over until the situation is taken care of.

Once upon a time, a Dane with a cold and a dream grew tired of needles and pills. In 2017, Vaev was born in Copenhagen, and now the world’s boldest tissue company is setting up in Los Angeles, CA.

We believe that when flu season comes around, you should be able to get sick on your terms. We’re not about chemicals or prescription drugs here at Væv. We believe using a tissue that carries a human sneeze is safer than needles or pills. This isn’t like any tissue you’ve used before, but we love using them, and you will too.

How the gently caress can there be more than 300 people who actually think that fuckbutton was a good idea? I don't have high hopes for the future of those 300 couples.

Yes, that is how jokes work.

Though whoever is behind it is probably unscrupulous enough that one of those things like artisinally hand-sharpened pencils or magic audiophile crystals where the satire ends where the money begins, then it was totally sincere all along until the money dries up.

I forwarded the link to a friend who is a couples sex therapist, and she said she’s had a few clients that she might have used that with. I haven’t had a chance to ask her for details, but if that’s the case then a population of 300+ wouldn’t be that shocking.

I really don't understand this one. It doesn't really seem like it was a scam as he wasn't really asking for much money but taking advantage of the fact that Japanese knife guy doesn't actually talk in his videos and representing it as his own seems willfully malicious.



There's a bit in the article that the FTC is going to get the guy permanently banned from doing crowdfunding ever again.

The device is dumb as gently caress but I particularly like that they're asking for 100k. Is that for all the complex R&D or building a new production line? FFS it's a commodity device with a $1 extra chip in it.

You can get the same result with a $1 charger from the checkout display and a post-it on your dashboard.
