About this community and how I post the comics… Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. Of course these days you can read your favorite comics online instead of a newspaper, but I love the nostalgia of reading the daily comics. Anyway, one of my favorite current comics is Cyanide and Happiness and I will be posting the daily release from their website (https://explosm.net/) and a an extra or two randoms.

This is a marketing trick, part of the shrinkflation treadmill.
(1) Step one, make a box with three rows of cookies.
(2) Step two, make two products, one with two rows (at a slightly lower price than the three rows), and introduce a Family Size/Share Size/etc. with four rows that costs just under double.
(3) Step three, return two step one, but now with a higher price.
Repeat ad nauseum.
The thing is, as a single consumer who is trying to buy at the best price point at any given time, I'll fall for it repeatedly.
Astroturfing, but I just launched https://lemmy.ca/c/shrinkflation today, if you want to post your Oreos.
I hate opening Oreos, whippets, etc. and just seeing those little plastic pegs in the packaging where three cookies should have gone instead. >:(
I read this in Anya’s voice.
This hits way too close to home.
Alright, I know they've had twenty years and are allowed a few stinkers, but is this the worst cyanide and happiness ever?
You can't open that, it's family size!
