"If that isn't great social commentary on American consumerism, then I just don't know what is."

Cards Against Humanity made $180,000 selling people bullshit. Well-played.

The NYT, CNN, ABC, and others have made a lot more money selling BS than that.

If I really need bullsh*t, I can buy a 40 pound bag at Home Depot for roughly $1.50.

One adventurous soul on YouTube even went so far as to break the poop in half to see if perhaps there was a hidden object inside.

Hoping to find a cow inside?

But can you be assured that it is genuinely from a male bovine?

Good for them.

And yet another reminder that P.T. Barnum was right.

I have bought poop before. Raked it into my garden. Mine cost only $2.49 for a 30 pound bag. Mmmm if I divided it up into sandwich bags at $6.00 each.........

I don’t think it’s a commentary on American consumerism. It’s a commentary on CAH’s audience, they like to be on both sides of a joke, being both the ridiculed and the ridiculer. For a couple years CAH’s Black Friday sale was to charge $5 more, and they were straight up about it, it wasn’t a hidden increase, it was advertised as “we’re charging $5 more on Black Friday”, and they made epic sales every time.

feces from a live bull

I certainly wouldn't want feces from a dead bull.

Cue the November 2008 analogy. 52% of voters bought.

So. They sell bull**** and they blatantly upcharge prices.

They have identified a target rich market...

The Democrats.

How very clever!
