I thought this might be a fun idea for a thread. We've got one for products you love, so why not products you hate? Post about stuff that you'd never recommend to anybody here. It burns like hell, and it tastes like it looks. As far as I can tell the only reason anybody uses this stuff is because of stockholm syndrome.   You bite into them expecting a familiar tart crunch, and you're left with a disappointing, cloyingly sweet savory taste. Regular dill pickles are so good, why anybody would want to make them sweet is beyond me.   Adobe Flash. Really, what more needs to be said.  Expensive placebos? Sign me the hell up!

2nd post, something I like. Something I don't like: "training masks." Every now and then I see some guy in the gym wearing one, looking like Bane. Not only do they not work as intended (presumably mimicking high altitude, which they obviously can't) but apparently they can seriously increase the risk of stroke.

 This stuff is about half the price of the next cheapest vodka, and there's a reason for that. It tastes like it's made of the ink from a permanent marker, and the flavour is strong enough that it's basically impossible to cover up. Essentially undrinkable. Wanamingo posted:

 My boss brought in a box of these today, and for some reason it's gritty? It's exactly like normal Purell except it feels like there's pumice or something in there. It's terrible, I complained and she said I was the third person to say something about it.

I always by Colgate because it tastes like toothpaste. I think toothpaste is probably the product with the highest possible level of brand loyalty, because whenever you use someone else's toothpaste your teeth just don't feel clean because it tastes wrong.

Speaking of pickles, gently caress these. They aren't a slight bit hot, just incredibly sweet. It's like biting into pickle-flavored cotton candy. My mom didn't like them and she eats anything.

 Whole house water softeners. Great for drinking and washing clothes and dishes, dis-loving-gusting for showering in. I mean holy poo poo, you're clean, but you feel so slimy like you've still got soap/body wash/shampoo/conditioner all over yourself, and no matter how much you rinse yourself off, you still get out feeling like the recipient of a mass bukkake session. I'd rather bathe in hard water and come out feeling non-slimy, yet clean and put a little lotion on afterward as I get dressed than to have to bathe in softened water.

I've been using some tom's brand strawberry toothpaste for kids my entire life because every other toothpaste I've used has made me want to gag. I mean that stuff tastes awful too but I'm probably used to it after shoving it into my mouth for so many years.

Pick posted:thinkgeek.com Loot crate. I can only feel sorry for the sort of person I imagine would want this service. Got no friends? Like absolutely anything so long as it's "nerdy"? Want to feel like someone cares enough about you to buy you a gift, but not enough to bother finding out what specific stuff you're into? Then you're the target market for loot crate! Fill your living space with worthless garbage that will gradually fill every available space until you either learn to interact with other humans or die.

Wanamingo posted:They make one for your dog, too I briefly signed up for that one since my dog is a toy destroyer and I was buying new ones monthly anyway. I had to cancel fairly soon after because it's one lovely toy that lasts like an hour, tops, before filling your house with stuffing and 5 bags of garbage treats. I ended up throwing away 3/4 of the box's contents every month, they even included "treats" once that had ingredients that are actively toxic to dogs.

I like the idea of the world snacks one because you basically get to try a boatload of stuff you never would have eaten before. The only good thing about loot crate is that Ashens does a review of every single one and he's always disappointed.

My in-laws have a Keurig they paid way too much for, and it makes average tea/coffee at best. I don't understand why people want such an expensive, wasteful machine when a Mr. Coffee is cheaper and easier to use. Edit: While I'm on the subject of coffee, I hate bottled/canned coffee drinks (with the exception of cold brew) because they usually have a ton of sugar in them. I want actual iced coffee, not a caffeinated milkshake. Eien Ni Hen has a new favorite as of 22:18 on Mar 19, 2016 |

You're less paying for the stuff and more paying for the surprise. It doesn't even come on a specific day; on a semi-random day you get a box full of stuff. It's like having a mini Christmas once a month. It's the anticipation they're selling not the stuff.

https://bad-dragon.com/products/mary Highly disapointing. The one that's obviously based off of Fluttershy does NOT have the look and feel of what I have always imagined the innocent cartoon pony's vagina would be like. Do they think we're amateurs? I live and breath magical pony gash. Don't try and hoist your cynical "reproductions" on me, I have lived too long a life of small horse cooze to have the wool pulled over my eyes so easily
