I’m not seeing the comparison here. There are grocery stores where you can get potatoes at a reasonable price, based on the costs involved in growing, shipping, and stocking said potatoes. No, I don’t grow my own potatoes, I shop at those stores. The grocery stores that charge more for potatoes are generally the “high end” grocery stores (in my area, Whole Foods, Raleys, Sprouts, etc) and are not doing convenience pricing which is what is being discussed.
Me saying that Starbucks is not forcing anyone to do anything and saying you’re allowed to make your own decisions is… Victim blaming. Lmao.
You know that there are people starving in the streets right? And you’re freaking out because “I need my coffee 😩😩😩 I’ll die without it 😩😩😩” get a grip, please
The comment I replied to was apparently made by a coward.
making me pay more
No, you’re choosing to pay more. Make your own coffee at home. Or hell, don’t drink coffee. Nobody’s making you do that, either.
A slightly better example might be convenience stores in low-income areas where many people don’t have access to transportation to the more affordable grocery stores. The fact that you immediately jumped to Starbucks (something many people consider a treat of sorts) as something you’re forced to buy out of convenience shows how privileged you are to have this “problem”.
This comment (namely, the age of “the girls” and why there won’t be sleep for a while) is awfully ambiguous for someone that did not see your previous post, especially with the home brews. Lol.
This took me a while
I’d be quite irritated if I offered to “trade” movies with someone and I gave them an 80 minute comedy and was told to watch a 12+ hour trilogy, lol. They are indeed white movies though.

Tony Hawk Undergound 1 and 2 for me, someone made a Spotify playlist for their soundtracks and I use it on at least a weekly basis
Rogue One and Andor are pretty good
The Star Wars Prequel Trilogy.
Story time. I’m nearing 30 and had only seen bits and pieces of the original trilogy (not more than 10 minutes or so at a time), and I saw episode 7 in theatre. Last year, my roommate (who is a huge Star Wars fan) and I decided to watch through the whole series. We started with the original, then trudged through the sequels so we could line up the prequel rewatch with the 20th anniversary of episode 3 and see it in theatre.
I went into it “knowing” that the originals were the best, the sequels were embarrassingly bad, and the prequels were pretty heavily shit on but still decent. I actually ended up liking the prequels more. From a technical standpoint I’d argue that they are probably “worse” movies. There’s the obvious things that don’t make sense (like Anakin being a child in episode one and a young adult in episode two yet Padme looks relatively unchanged) and the dialogue is certainly goofy at times, but I felt a lot more connected to the story and had more fun with the prequels than the originals.
The sequels were, in fact, absolute dog shit though.
Nope. None. Every single one of my many sexual experiences has been executed flawlessly to the extreme enthusiasm of my numerous partners.
No worries. Yeah, stores with that kind of pricing are the ones that I typically avoid.
