So you’re saying it’s not just me?
I have had a snickers and it is just you. Eat a verification snickers and you can be just like me
Jokes on you, I’m only 25!
Only thing I can promise you with somewhat high degree of certainty is that you won’t stay that way for long. 2-3 years tops.

Nice try idiot
What does this have to do with literally anything in the post??
Russian trolls just getting desperate at this point…
🥱
Yawning at genocide, an American tradition. But keep telling yourself you have some moral high ground. 😙
Go ahead, vote for genocide and Trump’s border wall.
literally just trying to stay alive until my mother passes away, just so she doesn’t have to bury a child. Then it can finally be over.
Like, I got personal reasons I think life sucks, but boy howdy I have no shortage of “big picture” reasons too. The future is bleak, at best.
There are a lot of Republicans I need to outlive before I throw in the towel.
Maybe you just need a Snickers?
actually I’m allergic to peanuts and treenuts, so a Snickers would probably only expedite my exit (can’t eat them due to allergy warnings)
Milky way.
Also has allergen warnings.
You’d be shocked how much candy that doesn’t contain nuts, might contain enough to kill someone with a severe allergy. Half my halloween candy when I was a kid, every year, would end up going to my mother for that exact reason.
CONSUME
OBEY
I genuinely can’t tell if this is fake. I fucking hate this world. Anyone want to team up to build a time machine and travel the future until the perfect utopia is achieved?
We’re probably more likely to see a return to feudalism, with the wealthy getting worshipped as god-kings and regular folks going back to being illiterate peasants working the land for their overlords.
Let’s fucking do it.
Ok we do it, but it’s cyber
The French rioted over retirement age. The US, well,
I think we need to actively work to deprogram their private police force people. The way to get them is to be on the inside.
I think that’s pretty much what we have now.
The power & wealth imbalance is the same anyway.
The wealthiest man in the world is installing a God king. It’s a perversion of democracy.
Hell yeah man, I’d love to see the heat death of the universe.
That’d be cool to see tbh.
That’s a big assumption that humanity actually makes it out of this situation the wealthy have gotten everyone into.
But things will survive, just not sure it will be humanity.
Anyone want to team up to build a time machine and travel the future until the perfect utopia is achieved?
How about we team up and try to make this world better instead?
Nah, that takes effort, and all I want to do is bitch and moan.
I envy your optimism, that things get better in the future.
Well, I’d go insane if I didn’t believe that.
Better use the effort to fix the issues we have now.
I went on chatgpt and said “Write an advertisement that plays on the fears of gen z then suggests they eat a snickers”. It returned almost the same as above.
This is basically the text version of the Kendall Jenner Pepsi commercial.
One more plastic wrapper for the fire!
That’s so cynical that I would almost kinda respect it if I didn’t hate marketing on principle.
Well you can just buy that check mark, and I have trouble believing the advertising people at Snickers are bold enough to actually post this, so it’s probably satire
You can also just Photoshop or edit the page source to make it say whatever you want
That’s cheating, and someone could catch you.
Not me of course; that would require actually checking Xitter
Was this an actual real post or satire?
I genuinely have no clue.
Welcome to the 2024. This year’s presidential election will have exclusive live coverage on election night, from your official election coverage team…The Onion. No word on if they’ll still deal in satire on the night, but it is confirmed that it will be absurd.
I would absolutely love for this to happen
I think it’s just an advertisement for Snickers. Gross.
The sign of a successful ad campaign is when the campaign itself gets satirized to continue to build on brand awareness.
But that only works if the satirization is still somehow stylistically distinct to be recognizable as a satirization of your brand.
You could put Wendy’s, Walmart, Northrup Grumman, Tyson, Bank of America, whatever, into this, and just change the last line a little bit, and I still would not be able to determine if its satire or not.
Twofold reasons:
1 Corporate Advertisement in general is almost completely stylistically played out. Almost everyone has tried almost every approach. It’s all just blended together, at least for me, into ‘insert nearly any kind of rhetoric or style or music or imagery here’ followed by: So buy the thing.
Sure, there are still some general trends for certain marketed product types … but …
2 Is anything on Twitter/X genuine? First we had a whole bunch of brand accounts acting like increasingly twitter brained idiots, then we had Musk’s disastrous takeover and blue check fiasco with people impersonating corpo accounts running wild, now the bots are even more widespread AND the general corpo trend seems to be ‘yes actually just have AI generate/do everything’, why wouldn’t text only posts currently be able to be handed over to an edgy ChatGPT model?
Like… this image, the account has some kind of silver tick or badge or something.
Is that from older Twitter era meaning its verified?
Was the account hacked?
Was this image photoshopped?
…
Can you even tell the difference between a serious idiot, an unserious troll, or a bot mimicking one of those, without an investigation?
The next comment I read after yours links to:
Meme aside, either one of those guys straight up shilling? Ehg.
btw in my personal opinion:
You’re 35 years old, mired in college debt that did nothing for the career you have and hate. You’ll never own a house. You can’t even consider having children. You’re filled with anxiety over climate change, inevitable wars. The world is doomed.
When life feels extra spicy, cool down with a Frosty. It won’t fix everything, but it’s a start. Wendy’s.
You could put Wendy’s, Walmart, Northrup Grumman, Tyson, Bank of America, whatever, into this, and just change the last line a little bit, and I still would not be able to determine if its satire or not.
I read this as an oblique reference to the “you’re not you when you’re hungry” campaign. It’s a bit of a reach, but it works.
Corporate Advertisement in general is almost completely stylistically played out
It’s like any other thing with fashion or styles. Trends come and go, different eras have distinct markers, later eras may intentionally evoke references or tributes to earlier eras, or other contemporary trends in other fields.
I don’t think the marketing people for a billion dollar corporation would be that bold.
Didn’t the Wendy’s Twitter account upend all that years ago? There were some bold tweets for a while.
I am not 35. I’m 34.
Give it some time…
No.
Boy you guys talk so much about student debt that I’m very thankful to not have it
Thank goodness my “third world country” offers free tuition for uni. 🤩
The US used to, too. But then a retired mediocre actor decided education was a privilege, not a right
Lol and you probably don’t even have a nazi clown running for president?
Thankfully not! It was a woman who won the presidency for the first time.
Brazil?
Yep same here.
I worked full time through college. So much that it often interfered with the time that I needed to be spending on study. I still owe $40k.
My ex husband who’s billionaire family paid his tuition while I paid our bills owes nothing of course.
Hey, your ex husband pulled himself up by his bootstraps! That’s no way to treat the world’s most elite!
I worked part time through college. Summers I had two part time jobs, and a couple summers three that worked with my schedule. Started school with about 10k in savings and finished about 12k in debt.
Edit: I’m also super frugal. Found cheap food, cheap/free furnishings/clothes, cheap housing, pirated textbooks, and rode a bicycle and took the bus to get around.
Wish I could have afforded the time for some unpayed opportunities. Really struggling to find a decent job at the moment. (Studied math at a top university with fairly significant cs experience and decent gpa).
Wouldn’t not recommend college, but man not feeling too good about it at the moment in terms of job opportunities (certainly wouldn’t trade the experience and what I’ve learned for anything though)
Continue to be thankful. I made some boneheaded choices in college which resulted in my throwing away a full ride, and I left school with like 80k in debt. Thankfully, I am much more fiscally responsible than I was academically responsible, and I managed to pay that off over the course of like 7 years (aided in no small part by the forbearance periods Biden forced through during COVID). Which is good, because more boneheaded choices were made which resulted in a significant change to my financial situation. If I were still making payments at this juncture, I would be in a position where I’d be moving back into mom’s basement just to make ends meet.
Not that there is anything inherently shameful in that (it’s fucking hard out here, and if that’s a resource that you have available, it should not be turned away simply because of pride), but it does cause me to wake every morning pleased I didn’t listen to any “financial gurus” out there who talk about shit like “good debt”.
Good debt is an advanced move. Most people can’t handle debt in any form.
No joke. I just went to a in state university, of which I had a few very good ones to choose from, and the state paid my tuition and I was able to pay rent working part time.
I often forget a lot of people around me are sitting on like $40k of debt because their state didn’t do lottery scholarships or they just wanted to go out of state, sometimes just to get “The College Experience”.
Mine is debt owed to family
Yeah, low blood sugar does that… wars and shit.
I know I do
Because when you’re down in life, nothing quite helps like getting fat, diabetes and cavities.
Treat yourself to even more problems!
Tbf, you don’t get diabetes from eating sugar. But the fat and cavities will do. *eats his feelings*
