Well damn, living on this planet will sure be a lot easier if I got one of those medbeds to cure the aches and pains. Thanks for the tip, I'm going to buy one right now!

This is what Liz Holmes was working on before the illuminati shut her down for being such a fucking genius.

It was the scenes of people fighting each other in Aldi over a YouTuber’s energy drink that left me bewildered, and then a bit scared, for the future of humanity, and well the present tbf. How..how did it come to this?

This sounds like a bunch of people who really don't need energy drinks.

A friend of mine asked me if I could go into Tescos near where I work at 6.30am to see if I could get that energy drink as he wanted to get it as a Christmas gift. So popular its pretty rare to get now, hence the fighting I would imagine.

I'm trying to look at it objectively. Turtles figures were the one thing I remember being in short supply when I was young. I wanted one of those little green buggers for months.
Is a a Youtuber-endorsed energy drink really any worse than a cartoon-endorsed lump of plastic? I suppose the energy drink even has a tangible, real world function.
What I can't get over is that it's an energy drink. If it was clothing or a toy I can understand why people would be envious of that, hence demand... but an energy drink? What exactly is in these energy drinks?

No child or teenager needs an energy drink. If they do they should be seeing a doctor. Little shits don't know what feeling tired is actually like!

Dunno, I never figured out why they're so popular other than just marketing. Suppose if you're that age, thinking that you own one is like a status symbol, you're a true fan or something.

It's just coconut water, it's not even a proper energy drink.
I can understand the desire for a plastic toy more than I can understand the desire for a drink marketed by some dickheads. At least the plastic toy might give some ongoing tangible enjoyment, the energy drink will last... What, 5 minutes then it's gone?
It's not even a drink you'd savour.
People, humans, are fucking dumb.

People, humans, are fucking dumb. Exactly, aside from anything, it's a perishable, disposable item, whereas a toy will potentially give enjoyment for years, and may even appreciate in value. If I was looking at it objectively, I suppose certain rare bottles of whiskey and wine are sought after, despite technically being perishable and disposable, but I think that's an apples to oranges comparison.

Even if wine and whisky are sought after, I've yet to see people literally fighting over it in shop aisles.

Doesn't seem all that long ago KSI was banned from Eurogamer events for being a prick and now people are fighting over some shit drink he endorses.

My wife bought a few bottles back from the US for my eldest. It's as tasty as you might imagine. He reckons he's going to cash in with an old design empty bottle....told him he should do it this week, as no one will give a stuff next week.

I know kids are into different stuff these days. But this is crazy.

If I paid 100 quid for a bottle of drink I'd expect at least to have had some pretty Japanese girl fawning over me for an hour or so. Even then I'll just do that in a Yakuza game rather than reality.

I'd expect her to have fawned over the bottle

Stuff like that does make very angry and, well, I can't really voice my opinion so I'll just say I wish the *most* unpleasant things to happen to cunts who do stuff like that.
My fairly left-wing and liberal woke views go out the window when it comes to perps of random acts of violence.
