i just found out tumblr was storing over three GIGABYTES of cookies on my device without me knowing and that's why it's been running so fucking slow recently... incredible. anyways everyone go clear your fucking cookies. don't let this website run a goddamn video game's worth of disc space in the background for no good reason.
just thinking about the “something special for someone special” item from tf2 which is a $100 virtual wedding ring that many people bought just because when you send it to someone it broadcasts a message to everyone currently playing tf2
thinking about how such an item would only work in tf2 and only because valve made the very good decision of having it broadcast a message to everyone currently playing tf2 and allowing renames of both the sender and recipient as well as the item so for $100 people broadcasted shit like
thinking about how there will never truly be something like this in gaming ever again
Customer: MY MOTHERS NAME IS CATHY AND HER DAD GREW UP CALLING HER CACKIN. I ORDERED CAKCINS FOR HER OTHER CAR A FEW YEARS AGO. THIS IS FOR HER 1965 MUSTANG.

Verdict: DENIED
honestly advertising is so fukcing wasteful not even just in the convincing you to buy shit you never actually wanted but like
how much electricity is wasted displaying ads that could've gone to keeping houses warm. How much paper is produced just to be turned into pamphlets and ads that will just be thrown away. how much internet bandwith is wasted just on the amount of ads that are on the internet nowadays. How many hours worth of labor went into producing ads that are going directly into my adblocker or my waste bin that could've been time spent doing literally ANYTHING useful?
