I'm sorry guys, I've been noticing things again. Although this might be somewhat refreshing compared to the usual breadtube shit that we're being subjected to at the moment which I can't stand.
When it comes to my daily spending habits I'm something of a die-hard cheapskate so I'm not fucking myself over by buying unnecessary things but now products seem to be gradually getting worse and worse while somehow maintaining the same prices and shamelessly ripping people off. Now some of it is just them being cheapskates, but when it comes to the packaging of food in particular I keep noticing that the stuff I buy is being shipped in increasingly flimsy material as an example and I've been building a bit of a list I wanted to compare because of course I'm going to be autistic as fuck about this.
Just a general list that I'm thinking about.
. Milk bottles with ultra thin plastic that often bend at the slightest bit of weight change, often causing a leak
. Ice cream cartons made of flimsy and thin cardboard compared to the sturdy plastic they're often in
. Paper straws(?)
. Electric vehicles that take forever to charge up and seem to have a habit of setting themselves on fire while parked
. Self-assembly furniture made with steel you could almost bend with your fingers
. Flimsy cutlery you can definitely bend with your fingers
It's getting so bad with the quality now it's something of a false economy to go for the cheap stuff anymore or we're being forced to accept these cheap products because it's everywhere now. I'm actually considering getting a proper milk jug because the bottles you get are so flimsy. If you complain of course, inevitably they're going to stick you with the climate denier label among with other things like if how you keep noticing all the shit SJWs are doing you're a racist and a sexist.
You almost have to admire the op they're running on the sophistication of it, then they act like massive boomers on a lot of other stuff.
Where are you getting milk that the jugs don't work?
I haven't ever had a problem even with the wal-mart brand of everything.
They sort of work, they're just flimsy as fuck. I've also noticed that certain supermarkets are being shady as fuck with where they get their milk from because depending on the shipment I can smell and taste chemical in them pretty vividly which is apparently a thing and they put bleach or whatnot to make it 'safe' to drink. As a result I've had to be pickier about where I get my milk from which is annoying. The thing is it's with all the usual places in the UK, these are branded stores, it seems there's just not a lot of quality control going on with the products these days.
The UK is definitely on the vanguard of national self destruction.
Spend the extra for the cardboard cartons.
the bad flavor you taste is from light penetrating the plastic.
plastic ingestion is bad for you.
He is in Bongland, but I noticed Wal-Mart pulling that shit about 8 years ago. Literally every week the grocery bag was leaking milk. I don't know if it was regional or they fixed it, because we switched to another store that has quality products.
Oil, you gotta loicense to have that spoon?
You know it's bad when even Walmart is doing QA better than the UK lol oh and yes, I thought that it was just me having bad luck or something. Now you mention it they're constantly cleaning the milk aisle and I was wondering if it was just somebody being an idiot but no it seems to be a thing.
Must have been the tranny kind.
Gallon milk jugs are pretty thin, and the caps don't inspire confidence that they won't leak or pop off.
Arizona Tea jugs, on the other hand, are tanks. I would keep them to refill with RO water.
You're right, it's the fucking caps they use. What is that? Better quality jugs use screw lids.
