There's a town in Illinois called Sauget with an ongoing debate over how to pronounce it. None of the dozens of pronunciations are what you'd think.

Tennessee just loves being cultured. Did you know that Nashville has a full-scale replica of the Parthenon?

People love confident voices that will do all the thinking for them. I'm really into weight training and fitness, and the amount of times I see someone share a clip from a "science-based" fitness influencer and say something like "I didn't check the sources but they cite all these studies" is wild.

and once I saw a comment on reddit that replied to another comment with a Google AI overview screenshot, and said "AI said its source is [site] so I believe it." The summary had a clickable link to the source in the text and they couldn't even do that.

If I see the existence of a product being acknowledged in any way, I just assume it's an ad.

Now, you want me to actually go to your store and try your product? Put some promotional coupons in my mailbox, I love that shit.

That situation sounds an awful lot like when Uber and Lyft first started enshittifying during COVID.
