Old skool product sizes and name changes
Remember bigger mars bars ?
Remember curly wurlys that were a lot larger than they are now ?
Remember monster munch that were the size of small monkeys fists ?

come to think of it remember Oil of Ulay instead of Oil of Olay ?
and marathons instead of snickers ?

Me too

Why do manufacturers think people wont notice or care
when they change their products ?

Lets bring back old product sizing and names. Fuck you marketing fuck you finance department if you want a smaller mars bars
get a proper sized one on the end of a huge pole and shove it in and out of your arseholes until it melts.

trouble is..
they reduce the size and quality of product in order to keep the retail price the same,
I imagine a proper sixties/seventies Mars Bar would now retail for about £3.50!

Cif can fuck right off
I certainly don't want to smear something on my work surface that sounds like an abbreviation for Russell Brand's latest medical issue.
Nor is it Jif. Jif gets squeezed on my pancakes on Jif Lemon Day.
It's Vim.

I just found out it's called Jif in Scandinavia.
Despite being pronounced "Yiff". So why the fuck _did_ they change it in the UK? I thought the reason given was to keep it consistent.
