TIL every time I've heard someone mention Ted Faro, they were NOT talking about Ted from HIMYM. I've never seen any details about Ted Faro before now, just "he's a monster" and "one of the worst villains ever conceived" and I thought it was just goons being facetious and was confused because Barney was way more of a monster than Ted.

This is just a silly one but I drove past a funeral home yesterday that had a sign saying HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND DRIVE SAFELY and thought that was kind of bad for business.

BattleMaster posted:No, I'm not American. I live in a place that has food safety laws instead of just a "lol if you get sick" warning. What in the world???? Aren't you Canadian? I don't know if it's law, but I see these warnings all the time in Canadian restaurants as well if they serve raw eggs or meat.

I've definitely heard the first two lines of Fortunate Son by CCR used in ads glorifying America but I can't recall for what products.

I don't play much tt but aren't there quite a few games with Nazis as the baddies that would have some kind of Nazi playing pieces? Or is the problem that people don't play the Nazis as the baddies?

Breetai posted:This is like the third time in the last couple months I've seen a thread get an extended "what do you mean that *word/phrase* has negative connotations/is an outright slur? I for one have never heard it/don't think it's actually all that bad really" derail and this poo poo is starting to appear less like clueless/sheltered loving whiteboy goons and more like a high pitched whistle. Yup. It's really not that hard to say, "Oh, I didn't know about the racist connotations of that word/phrase, I'll be more mindful in the future."

Does anyone else find it somewhere between cringe and unprofessional when businesses reply to bad reviews defensively? I don't mind seeing, "we're sorry you had this experience, please contact this email address if you would like to discuss further" template responses. But for example, I was about to recommend one of my favourite restaurants to another goon who was in town, and decided to look through their reviews. Almost all 5 stars but the odd 2-3 star reviews have the owner responding like an rear end in a top hat. Someone posted that they found a certain dish too dry and the owner responded along the lines of "funny no one else says that about it, looks like you give a lot of bad reviews, maybe you're just an unhappy person". There was another complaining it took an hour to get their food and the owner calls them a liar. The food, service, and atmosphere are excellent, but I decided not to recommend it, and might not be back.

A gamer with hairy legs a shameful gamer. (I believe that is a hair removal crystal thing, I doubt they actually work) Amazon only shows me ads for things that look like sex toys but aren't. Which is a good marketing move because I do often click them to figure out what they actually are. I think they took a page out of wish's advertising book with that.

Facebook Aunt posted:I don't know about that one specifically, but similar products are just a very fine grit sand paper and work fine. Generally you have to rub 3 times clockwise and then 3 times counter clockwise on each palm-sized spot, so it takes loving forever, but it works. Since the hairs are sanded down rather than cut they grow in tapered so you don't get stubble. Leaves the skin very soft and smooth as it incidentally sands off any dry flaky skin cells. But it's sand paper, so don't rub too hard or you'll give yourself road rash. Interesting, I'll probably try one sometime then.

I still believe in pogs. You should see the poo poo the zoomers are into, like for example they are huge on making DIY slimes. If you can somehow combine pogs, slime, and fidget toys, you've got yourself a billion dollar product, I'm sure of it.

I've even seen electronic drive-thru menus that switch to ads while you're deciding, because it's not like there's a line of cars waiting behind you or anything.

I tried fallout 4 but nothing could make me give a single gently caress about the game with such a bland player character being forced on me. I hope the baby turned out to be some mutant terrorist or something.
