AMC Exec: We Wouldn’t Have Made the Dune Popcorn Bucket if We Knew You’d Be Sickos About It
Internet’s been around for about 40 years, sounds like a you problem
So the bucket was sold in other places? I thought it was just a gimmick from the movie theaters in mexico to boost sales.
…driving people to go crazy with demand for the shai-hulussy-shaped vessel.
This can’t be legal
Bless the Maker and his shai-hulussy
Bless the coming in Him
They knew exactly what people would do. All marketing is good marketing.
I think this is the funniest thing I’ve read all year, "driving people to go crazy with demand for the shai-hulussy-shaped vessel.
I’ve seen eggdrop bots, all Dune inspired, fester in an irc room for years and never got anythin close to shai-hulussy. AI will never replace humans.
They probably paid some TikToker to make videos about it’s other uses to pump sales
Heheh… Pump
😏
Why don’t companies have someone in product development who’s entire job is to point out less than desirable ways people will use their products, or protect against rule 34 or the like? The internet has been around long enough that it shouldn’t have been a surprise that there were people who wanted to fuck a plastic lamprey eel. How as this even surprising?
Hire a 13yo boy just to look at your products and point out all of the ways it can be badly interpreted
They made a movie about that once with Tom Hanks. Guess these companies never watched it 😏
Because that employee would be by far the most overworked one in most companies?
Or maybe just because most companies don’t care as long as you keep giving them money without costing them any 🤷
And HR would hate them.
The “Hey, did you know that you can Fuck this?” Guy.
I’d replace HR with that guy honestly
