If you believe that there was any conversation like this at all, and it isn’t just some production line that places coupons at the same place on every box.

Pretty sure it's a joke about the placement, not a serious assessment

The community is “malicious compliance”. It would only be a perfect fit for here if it were actually malicious compliance and not just a funny coincidence.

Eh, that's a weird place for this kind of sticker, I'm sure it was deliberate.

It just wouldn't have needed a specific interaction to happen.

Whether real or not, it is a joke about malicious compliance creating this funny placement. It could very well be real malicious compliance. That's a very fitting place for this meme

This reminded me of something. If you ordered diapers from Amazon between 2019-2021 and you lived in the Boston area South of the Charles down to Scituate and the sort labels were placed directly over the baby's face... That was me. I was amusing myself.

It's weird that everything is sanitized soulless corporate shit nowadays that small ramdom displays of humanity in humor are out of the norm.

If I noticed that while shopping, that store would have just earned a sale.

all this could have been avoided if he had simply had the patience to explain "don't cover textual brand signage, people need to be able to identify what they're buying. maybe aim for cosmetic stuff like product pictures; those are usually bullshit anyway..."

but hey at least we got funny picture :3
