One weird trick to turn a hard supply chain problem into a smart marketing move. Our cilantro is pants shittingly good! I'd have voted with with Chipotle kids when faced with Chipotle vs Hard Rock.

Some informercials are trying to sell through a seacan of disability aids and some of them are a coked out inventor who wants to cut a row boat in half and they're all framed by there's got to be a better way because it's 2019 and everyone knows exactly what they are going to get out of the exchange.

Croatoan posted:Oh? Can you elaborate? I mean it doesn't matter to me, I use a reusable insulated bottle but why wouldn't aluminum be recyclable? Recycling as a whole is a participation trophy you get for failing reuse and reduce and except for a few lean mean local supply chains that are really doing it acceptable it mostly just gets sold and resold until it's illictly dumped into a South Pacific lagoon. That doesn't mean we should stop but you know just be aware the blue bin isn't a magic environmental win button.

Make paper pulp out of "naked" cellulose from algae or biodigested grass and reduce costly bleaching and lignin removal. Continue sustainable forestry and bury excess wood as a carbon sink. I wish both points were as easy as typing them out. Paper manufacturers aren't any more married to trees than fiber length and the alternative methods compete more with recycled fiber than virgin tree fiber when it comes to quality and length. And we're still figuring out what carbon sequestration should look like, and if forestry can and should play a part.

Yeah, the marketing approach is simple to pinpoint as a call out based on the people who boggle at fast food not rotting like an old vegetable after a couple days. It's positively straightforward and incredibly lacking in the reptile brain bullshit that would tell you "please don't make customers brains light up mold and tasty burger at the same time I'm begging you"

Its certainly a collection of sales-isms that probably worked in one time and place and wouldn't be surprised if they still work now because they are so widely implemented if you try something else you look suspicious.

You don't understand. It's logically consistent. After the climactic unveiling of the Ms Monopoly boardgame, there is a denouement where the young women receive education grants! It's about women inventors! Why are you still laughing? *Ms Monopoly is a latte sipping venture capitalist and we are one step closer to proving we are in hell*

The Germans have such sights to show you on boardgames. Board games tend to be really expensive so its a hard business proposition to create and sell a board game that you know doesn't just have a constant influx of idiots like themed Monopoly. Kickstarter is almost the perfect vehicle for the niche board game now though. The manufacturing costs are pretty up there if you don't do volume and if you're just a couple guys in their Werkstatt making indie submissions for the Spiel des Jahres they usually do a limited run and just charge excessive amounts for a set and maybe give open source reproduction instructions if they're nice. Getting perordered in Kickstarter let's them negotiate decent volume contracts driving price down and profit up for themselves.

The MSJ posted:By the way, some panty liner ads are starting to use red fluid instead of blue. Maybe some day we will see the equivalent change for diaper ads. First the tests are more made up than a round of Who's Line is it Anyway. Dumping a Kool aid pitcher in a liner, using a tampon as a reverse tea bag to drink a cup of water, wiping up puddles of water with toilet paper. Hmm yes all very accurate. Once the dumb test is invented they put their finger on the scale and make their material abnormally water absorbent to the detriment of human factors: it absorbs easily but also drains and squishes out easily, or it feels like garbage, or does (or doesn't, there's a middle ground to find here) disintegrate moments after absorbing it all. This seems especially relevant to the baby poop selfie problem. Then for their adversary they take "the leading national brands best selling" and put in small print it's their value/cheap version vs the premium version and no poo poo the product that costs 5X as much absorbs twice as much.

If it isn't fireworks it's dog peer pressure. Verbal control is leaving enough leash to hang yourself with and are bad laws imo. Working dogs who have graduated from dog school are still kept on a leash on the job (for the jobs where it's possible) because it's such a good short circuit. Dog parks with bad density control are similarly a menace because at least the fence means they arent going to bolt into traffic but the dog peer pressure gets to be a menace.

I can solve everybody's problem here and a few problems you didn't know you had. You shouldn't be especially handling your PPE outside of a warm zone donning/doffing station after which you wash your hands. Have a dedicated spot you visit on the way out of your house everytime to get your corona kit and don your mask. It should be out of the way of what you normally do, in a utility room or garage or such. But unmissable on your way out. Visit it every time on the way in and immediately hit the sink right after. No throwing it in the car seat. No relying on emergency ones squirreled way who knows where gathering who knows what. You do not touch it unless you are at your home station, or on/near a bathroom to wash your hands before eating. Any protection is good protection so feel free to ignore all of the above as long as you are wearing a mask, but it's important PPE and everybody's outlook increases if you treat it like real PPE.

The only constant ads I can remember are the empty your bowel one. Its the first one trick your doctor doesn't want you to know one I can remember. They've fronted eggs, burning nuts, and boiling banana peels. Medical history has no shortage of examples of ways to make you poop that make no sense and can fool no one (because the poop doesn't come out) I put forth that poop scams are the first quackery and will be the last quackery.

That idea that the labels are just a label is just about common with social sciences. You'll have a hypothesis like "dog lovers also donate to charity" and read the procedure and see nothing that guaranteed the cohort actually loves dogs, but the cohort is cohesive in maybe some other way to get a proven hypothesis, sort of. The discussion and peer review absolutely picks up that maybe the hypothesis proven was for some other characteristic but science press picks it up as literally "dog lovers single handedly the most charitable people in the world."

I never understood the Aloy ugly thing. HZD is one of the games I've most caught my self lasciviously staring during debates on which armor to use. Focus grouping the poo poo out of lady protagonists sucks and just gives an excuse when a game isn't good for other reasons. And VPs still walk away with the completely wrong impression from stuff like Mass Effect and rear end Creed Odyssey gender stats.

Facebook Aunt posted:Looked it up, the difference is a single ingredient. Beverage marketing is weird, their job is basically take any number of things that people really want in a blind test and figuring out how to not completely fail taking it to a market where people have drank the same thing for 20 years and are not actually in the market to change. It's really funny Dr Pepper did the Coke zero thing exactly but said the quiet part out loud.
