    Dude, the digital price tags in stores. You can’t fucking read anything besides the price. The BOGO tiny text, the price per unit, ugh, it’s so bad. Some of them even try to cram the “scan the digital coupon QR code”.

    I’ll be homeless from expensive groceries before I spend the time to install the stupid app and try to scan a QR code while holding a freezer door open to save $0.50 on green peas. Fuck these fucking companies man.

    I’m old enough to remember when tech was making things faster or more convenient. We have fully evolved into the tech dystopia of using our data collection device in the dumbest way to upload even more data.

    Scanning those digital coupons makes me so close to snapping. I stopped. I’ll pay the oligarchs the tax for my sanity. I don’t want to snap at the grocery store employee that doesn’t deserve it. I’ve been on the edge a couple times.
