Product changes that piss me off

Wrigley's gun. Still has sugar, but has added Nutrasweet. Why? WHY? I have ridiculously strong jaw muscles from teeth grinding and I always chew on somethin, but nutrasweet gives me a migraine. What's the point. There's only one chewing gum that still has sugar, it's some off brand that I forget that's called "classic."

Mr. Pibb. I drink Dr Pepper like water. 2 liters a day at least. But I did for a while buy Mr. Pibb when it was on sale. For some reason I'd always get stomach aches with it. They started putting lactic acid in it. What the hell? Milk products in a softdrink? Fuck them.

Pyrex. Used to Pyrex was known for the ability to withstand heat. Now they were bought out by a big name company, and they break like crazy with heat change. Fucking sell outs.

Major League Baseball. Some people think this isn't a product. I call them jaded. While most major sports are working with a salary cap MLB can't even allow instant replay for anything worthwhile. Plus all the steroid records need to be cleansed before I'll watch another game.

3D movies. While it's interesting the first 2-3 times, frankly in the end it kinda seems pointless. I hate that directors are trying to make scenes just for 3D that have nothing to do with the movie and in fact take away from it.

SyFy channel. I want my Stargate Atlantis movie. Fuckers

Children's Beauty pagents. Not a product per se, but really fucked up either way.

Febreze air cleaner. Anything other that nutra-air by lysol and ozium, esp ozium, that claim to "clean the air," are full of shit.

Attitude pick and mix. Fuckers always put the ones that don't germ in there. I could kick em in the nuts.

Dragon's Age 2. Self explanatory if you played it.

Mighty Dog canned food. Makes my dog throw up on my bed. Probably something about my dog but still it pissed me off.

Tony Hawk Video games. I have many great memories of getting stoned and playing tony hawk for hours. Now you have to use a thing you stand on and lean. Are they fucking serious?

Dexter. The last episode of season 4 pissed me off. It was gay. That chick was a really good addition to the whole transition of Dexter, and the baby in blood was really gay.

Advanced Nutrients. Really who needs 16 different types of nutes.

Seed Websites that don't list the breeders. Fuck you ya bag seed peddling douchenuts.

Tough Dog Toys. Things that are guarenteed to last that my 15 pound rat terrier/min pin kills in 3 minutes.

Probably some more but mostly that.

I quit playing Dragon Age 2 after the sister died, then it seemed like you just go back to the city and do the same thing over again, the first one was so much better.

2 liters of dr pepper a day?!? wow man, how do you not have diabetes ;)

They reformulated Necco wafers, the philistines. And Pantene! Why didn't they stick with a product line that works?!!

The second-generation Scion xB. The first one rocked. The second one is an FJ Cruiser with an extra chromosome. Sheeez.

At least the Toothbrush Wars have died back some. In the 90s toothbrushes were coming out with new "features" every day and becoming baroque exercises in style to rival athletic footwear. What if I want to just-buy-a-TOOTHBRUSH-fer-fuck's-sake?! Huh?

all boxed cereals suck now, the dont taste like they did when i was a kid, now all that shit is multi grain and gluten free with 1/4th the sugar.... and kids are fatter than ever! fuck, when i was a kid cereal was so bomb, now you have to buy generic just to get the same taste, since everyone decided to say that cereal needed to go from tasty to fucking rabbit food.

HELLO TO THE PARENTS OF THE WORLD, IF YOU DONT WANT YOUR KIDS TO GET FAT OFF OF GOOD TASTING CEREAL, MEASURE HOW MUCH OF IT THEY EAT!!!

fucking everyone wants to police everyone else's eating habit.

i don't like how pringles shrank, and so did the cans. there's no such thing as a gallon or even half gallon of ice cream any more. it's always 3.5 pints or some shit. and don't get me started on how mcdonald's fries suck ever since they ditched the trans fat oil. and i don't like how cars are made of plastic now. and i just got a new guide on my cable box and it lags like a mofo and they changed the info so it gives critique of the movie instead of just what it's about, as in "bland, witless drama about a boy and his dog". i don't need to know if some cunt thought it was bland and witless i just want to know what it's about. christ.
