Yer gonna need a soundtrack fer this shit
Also commentsWhen in 100 years, after the AIs kill us all and have nothing to do with their time sitting in the hammock but learn about how fucking stupid we were, they will read this blog post and know, deep in their not human bones, why we destroyed ourselves.
Jesus Christ. The thing is, he's right. The value-added of a Juicero is the Silicon Valley elitist bullshit you get to signal to everyone around you. Look at how conspicuous my consumption is. Get bent.The value of Juicero is more than a glass of cold-pressed juice. Much more.
I honestly don't know which is harder - being Sean Spicer or CEO of a company that makes a $700 Odwalla dispenser.
It’s in how the busy professional who needs more greens in her life gets App reminders to press Produce Packs before they expire, so she doesn’t waste the hard-earned money she spent on them. Am I cynical in thinking that he probably thought, "I'll make the one getting the kids off to school the dad and the professional the mom. That will show how progressive Juicero is. That'll show them. Also, no WAY the mom is ever described as "frazzled," these days. Imagine he reversed the genders in those two paragraphs. He'd be crucified.The value is in how easy it is for a frazzled dad to do something good for himself while getting the kids ready for school, without having to prep ingredients and clean a juicer.
Another awesome quote: A family of 5, two juice pouches per head, implies 300 pouches per month. At $7 per pouch, my juice budget is $2100 per month… Think about it. $2100 per month as juice budget (many articles are using the irrelevant capital cost of $400). This solves the nation’s nutrition problem, how? (I’m glad you didn’t mention this would eliminate the world nutrition problem.) they're stupendously expensive. And they've got this giant dumb thing on the counter: And of course it was designed by Yves Behar, the one guy to make an uncomfortable Herman Miller chair. I guess what I'm saying is you adding cynicism to this endeavor is like spitting in the ocean.Would you please explain the Math here….
Yeah, the comments are awesome. Just read that one.
I love this so much. Thank you. Juicero's CEO:Apparently the bag contains actual fruits or vegetables rather than just being a fancy Capri-Sun, so it's slightly different than "squeezing juice out of a bag" but still. It's basically squeezing fruit with a condom over it to make cleanup easy.
