And the invention of the reusable condom.

The ones where the flap still covers 2/3 of the oreos when open?

[-] [email protected] 58 points 1 day ago

But why is that even there? Are people really eating only some of the Oreos and then putting the rest away?

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

Well you see, moderation is key.

  • take 2-4, reseal the package
  • repeat until done
[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I unhinge my jaw like a snake and consume all the Oreos simultaneously.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

Yeah, isn't it normal to eat a whole sleeve of Oreos and throw up on your mother's bed?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Whoa are you the sus guy

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

My parents would never allow that, but among my excesses in college: pulling all nighters with a package of double stuffed and a 2L bottle of Mountain Dew. Now I feel nauseous even thinking about it, and my heart probably wouldn’t hold out

[-] [email protected] 26 points 1 day ago

Not willingly

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Exactly. This is a regression, not an advancement. Now the package tries to close on me mid gluttony.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Like the "servings" unit for nutritions which lists 2 oreos. In a pack of 15. removed, I'm gonna eat the whole package. It's the rule. You can't just have 2 and then put the pack away. Like, wtf?!

[-] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

I do. A standard Oreo is 10g of easy, enjoyable sugar. If my blood sugar is on a downswing and I project I'll get too low, I grab one or two out of the cupboard.

They are a medical supply and are dosed as such.

I guess I'm an overdosing junkie then...

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

You know what else needs to be banned? A bag of chips having 1.8 servings in it.

1 sure, 2... ok. But .8 of a serving? Get the fuck out of here.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

What about cans of spray oil that have hundreds of servings but say 0 calories? No shit, you've got no detectable calories when a serving is a 1/4 second of a spray.

Yes but we also witnessed absolute horrors like payment plans for pizza and microtransactions in video games.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

These days there are even some resealable packaging whee the seal doesn't get ripped off or torn when opening the packet. What a time to be alive.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I'll never cease to be amazed at the wonders of technology

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

When I was younger I found it stupid they started putting candy in resealable bags. Felt like a waste of plastic.

I know what you are thinking. "But it falls out if I put the bag in pocket/backpack/whatever-" No. Skill issue. ...Usually.

Kind of like how it took decades for us to figure out to put wheels on luggage. I'm sure there are tons of things waiting to be invented that people will look back on us eventually and wondering what took us so long to figure out something so obvious.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 1 day ago

My guess is wheels would not have helped when everywhere is dirt and cobblestones. Wheels appeared when we needed them.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

A wheel is never late, nor are they ever early. They always arrive exactly when they mean to.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

If you pave it, wheels will come

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

They could have used bigger wheels

I was thinking about the many cables for iPhones.

Let's see AI come up with that! Checkmate!

We watched sodapop bottle companies perfect the easy peel tab on the plastic, and then slowly cheap out until it barley releases one bottle if your lucky.

YBC Noir > Oreos

(If you ever find yourself in Japan, go into any supermarket and try them - cheaper and nicer-tasting.)

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

I'll make sure to go to Japan just to try a different version of oreos

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

I wanna go for their unique KitKat flavors. I guess I can try their Oreos, too, if I ever actually make it there.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Is the package resealable though?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Noir is two vacuum-sealed rolls in a larger bag as opposed to opening a container with all of the cookies.
