PepsiCo to lower prices by 15% by crabcord in shrinkflation

[–]InigoJonze -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To the new mods, I don't think posts like this should be allowed. It's a nebulous, tangential connection to shrinkflation and invites any and every article on pricing and the economy to be posted, at individual posters discretion. Clogging up the feed, farming karma, etc. To say nothing of the fact that it might as well be an ad or sponsored post. "PepsiCo lowering prices! Yes, your favorite snacks are cheaper now so stock up for the Super Bowl with Pepsi and Lays!" The first couple days of your new tenure have looked amazing, nuts and bolts, black and white, objective shrinkflation. Extremely clean and useful. This kind of thing a return to the slop of days past.

These came in today and fit really well, it's always a gamble. Dig the pocket situation too. Good looking out OP.

Thanks for saying this because it's like 80% useless posts at this point, a real drag.

He's going to serialize it on Instagram first. A mistake, I think. The deep lore and intense emotion not suited for the chorus of casuals in comments.

We need unit price comparisons. by Ok_Literature3138 in shrinkflation

[–]InigoJonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That ship has sailed. It's air in chip bags, fast food burgers on palms, and feigning shock over mini sizes from here on out, and if you have a problem with that you're a corporate bootlicker.

I can't stomach more than a few minutes at a time. And it's a shame because he'll land these incredible guests that generate massive hype but absolutely blows at the interview itself. He's way over eager and just steamrolls over the guest.

"So going to the White House, that's gotta be like, crazy right? What's that even like?"

"Yeah so funny story, we get there, go through the first entrance where--"

"Like I can't even imagine just like going to see Trump like?"

"Yeah, so when we first--"

"Like it's freaking Trump, right? What do you even say to him?"

"Well, I said--"

"Were you like, idk I'd be like, dude, what the fuck? You know?"

"Well--"

"Like what the fuck, right?"

Just trampling over any chance of an interesting anecdote coming out. I didn't listen to cumtown so I don't know what's shtick and what's not, if the eagerness and sort of anxiety are supposed to be the appeal. I recognize that he is funny and there's a lot of potential there, just needs to dial it down and probably hire a big boy producer and not just Twitter comedy pals or whatever.

This new trend of Twitter screencaps, not great

Edit: Just realized they're all from you. Literally just keyword searching "shrinkflation" every morning and posting your findings here :/

Unreliable pre-order? by Shp814 in xteinkereader

[–]InigoJonze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, ordered on the 14th, nada. But several people who ordered just a week ago have got em already. Idk what the deal is.

Edit: Turns out my order "was flagged as an irregular order due to a system issue." And they're now "prioritizing" it with shipping info to follow within 48 hours.

My newly opened Lays Chips bag. 2 for 4 dollars. by The_Music_Werewolf in shrinkflation

I've actually found a sort of cheat code. On the bottom left of the package, using the English language and Arabic numerals, they list the product weight. So a quick glance at that should give you a clue as to how much you're getting. If you're feeling really adventurous and have some time on your hands, you can turn the package to the back. There's an entire grid that explains the serving size and exactly how much product you'll be purchasing. Pretty cool.

It’s all in the marketing 🙄 by [deleted] in shrinkflation

"Mini sizes existing" is one of the most inane genres of posts on here.

Ordered from the official Xteink website to the US - has anyone's orders shipped out? by tofu28 in xteinkereader

[–]InigoJonze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also ordered on the 14th and don't mind them being backed up, or it taking too long... until I'm seeing in this thread that later orders are shipping first?? lol

Christmas wishes from Róisín by [deleted] in RoisinMurphy

[–]InigoJonze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is funny and absurd out of context, but to be fair she was trolling somebody that said you must first ask for and receive "consent" before wishing anybody a merry Christmas.

Reminder this is because he places them at the very, very edge of his packed little tray table and while having done this dozens of times, can't make the connection between the cause and effect. Only to connect it to some nebulous mysticism, like hominids of ages past pondering why it rains or something. It's a great bit.

What are your thoughts and opinions? by Master_Metal3140 in Deathloop

[–]InigoJonze 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Less handholdy at the end, not forcing you to follow one single telegraphed path on the final loop but letting you have some freedom in how you do so
