Good news OP

While this is a funny joke, as far as I'm aware this company is actually pretty cool, and the purpose behind the Liquid Death (sparkling or still) water is quite wholesome.

Part of the reason for it being a tallboy is that aluminum cans are more recyclable than water bottles, potentially infinitely so, while water bottles either have a limited amount of recyclability potential or aren't actually recyclable at all.

The other reason is to literally make it more fun and appealing to drink something other than alcohol at concert venues. Part of getting over addiction or even getting away from a culture that is doing you harm is, in the US at least, heavily associated with becoming "no fun". The idea here is to make water as fun in terms of packaging as alcohol, so people who are going sober, who can't drink, or who are the Designated Driver don't have to feel like they're relegated to the "no fun zone" forever and still get to order something with a silly name. We had these at my brother's wedding as an alcohol alternative and tbh it was really neat.

From the Liquid Death website:

"Most products in the health and wellness space are all marketed with “aspirational” fitness models and airbrushed celebrities. And many of us are tired of it. Why should unhealthy products be the only brands with “permission” to be loud, fun, and weird? And let's be honest, almost all marketing and branding is just theater. So we’re going to treat our theater like a movie theater and have more fun with it."

So yeah! If you want a neat alternative to buying bottled water, this isn't a bad alternative. Also, if you feel like you miss the feeling of opening a can of beer and drinking one, especially with carbonation, this could help curb the urge without having to substitute soda.

Oh. So it was a stand against single use plastic, alcoholism culture, and eating disorders disguised as fitness.

saying this, she casually threw aside a large rock

actually this is because i just read this reddit story

tldr:

to add to this, heres a pic of the area the employees were sheltering in the amazon warehouse that partially collapsed looks like.

apparently its an area where tornados are common enough that they need a giant ass sign specifically for the "tornado assemble area", but they couldnt spring for literally any form of actual shelter. a reenforced break room that doubles as a shelter area with strong thick walls, able to survive the rest of the building collapsing? an underground shelter area? literally even the tiniest fucking wall to protect against flying debris?

nope, you get an open area in the middle of a relatively flimsy warehouse with a sign. but hey at least if that warehouse collapses on top of you everyones gathered in one easy spot to look for bodies later :)

even if you say "well midwesterners are used to tornado warnings they cant stop everything and send everyone home every time theres a possibility of a tornado", if its so fucking common why not have literally any form of shelter built into the warehouse for when those normal, common tornados hit?

like damn either theyre rare enough you should be worried about even the slim possibility of one and shoudnt have made your employees come in, or you should already have a fucking shelter built for your employees for the regularly scheduled tornado warnings.

People say that old games dont look as good as they remember

Its because they legitimately dont.

The “fuzz” from CRT monitors was something that was definitely accounted for and taken advantage of back in the day when it came to video games! While this effect is noticeable in 3D games, it’s MUCH more visible when it comes to 2D sprites:

Just look how much more depth these simple sprites of Princess Peach and Bowser from Super Mario RPG seem to have when seen through the “dots” of a CRT TV screen!
