    TIL Liquid Death is water lol. I always assumed it was one of those coffee/energy drink hybrids from the name and price.

    Because the average person is stupid and will pay $4 for fucking water because it looks like an energy drink.

    I like the idea of water in cans, this rivals one of own business ventures from a few years ago.

    The issue I have with this is that this is clearly a profit based initiative, and I do not believe environmental benefits are really considered unless it adds to the profit.
    Why do they not sell the cans at a reasonable price? Because it won’t make them a billion dollars if they did this.

    I just have my doubts that this has anything to do with doing any good for the planet, it’s just expensive water that exists to fill pockets with money. Any benefit seems like a side effect.

      The stores around me always have a fucking ton of Prime but I never see anyone buying it or drinking it, it’s weird. I feel like Logan Paul is gaslighting me.

        well there was a period in the UK last year when it was so popular that there was a shortage of it with small convenience stores selling it for £10 a bottle. I think stores stockpiled them at the time, now they are back to being worthless.

    3: Call it death while pointing out that it’s neither solid, gas, nor plasma

    4: ???

    5: Profit
