This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Capitalism at its finest. As alcohol is going out of fashion, people invent new product categories to profit from, and gullible people are brainwashed by marketing to embark on this trend.

Capitalism does breeds innovation. Innovation in creating useless and needless products.
