god damn you can practically hear the ™ symbols

Something about the existence of a Milk and Cookies tray and mug set really bothers me. Single-use, kitschy, ugly, and yet surely deemed necessarily and relatively inexpensive and requiring (a small fraction of) hard labor of hundreds of people being paid very poorly.

Gather round and watch Maoo struggle with the liberalism of personal asceticism in response to capitalism. Watch Maoo's brain hurt over some dumb tableware.

Found the fucking POSER. Real Christmas fans leave milk and cookies out for Santa every night of the year.

It bothers me too

If we assume it took one hour of cummulative labor to produce (extraction of materials, manufacture, transport, then divided by the number of mugs made), then in an ideal world things like this would still exist. Surely someone who enjoys such a thing would exchange money worth one hour of their own labor for it. Even in the preindustrial era people would spend the meager manpower and resources they have on kitschy things like this. I mean I've 3D printed dumber things as gifts and the 15 minutes of effort I put in it wasn't a great expenditure.

I'm prejudiced against people who write with emojis

I'm talking about people, not hexbear users, especially if they personally killed Kissinger

My kids constantly telling me to drink more Pepsi, but I pour that shit out. This is a Coke house and if they don't like our sponsor they can pick up another place to live.

the "milk" mug full of chunky green sludge makes it look like it's been sitting out since last Christmas

[–] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I thought it was being used as an ash tray

[–] AlicePraxis@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

I like the idea of a chain-smoking Santa putting out his cigarette butts in the milk cups that kids leave out

[–] Othello@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

Bit idea - leave Santa some Colon Blow and Metamucil Apple Crisp Fiber Cookies.
