Jack198,

I see that you bumped this thread from last year.... Back then (august, 2013,) some RVF posters were talking about the impending bubble burst of social media... a year hence... now we are in august 2014, the social media is still alive and kicking strong. Hahaha.

Today, in the everything else section of RVF, Tuthmosis created a thread mocking and ridiculing 5 nerdy chemists date rape drug detection. That's fun, i guess. I understand the sentiments in this climate of bogus false rape crap. Still, in my mind all i see is this pattern:

hamster + social habits + technology(that amplifies the hamster) = money maker.

The hamster here = false rape victimization complex.

social habits = drinking, clubbing, etc.

technology = date rape drug detection.

Like i mentioned last year on this very thread--exactly a year ago in fact (26th, august, 2013),-- this pattern is what made sarah blakely a billionaire. This is the same pattern with apps like "foodspotting" or "candycrush" or "twitter" or any such crap with their ridiculous valuations.

.....Hahaha. basically, sarah blakely became a billionaire by inventing a product that makes women hamsterize their fatness away! That is it in a nutshell....

Step #1.
The first place to start is to brainstorm a list of female hamsterizations. The more pernicious the better. Create a list of female hamsters.

Step #2:
Make a 2nd list of social habits that feeds the hamster.

Step #3:
Make a 3rd list of current technologies or technological habits that will amplify the hamster(s) to level 10.....

step #4:
combine the content of the three lists. Mix-match. Permutations. use your devious expert mind on the female hamster to answer the question: what will put this hamster on steroids?

Basically, game plan is: hamster + social habits + product-that-makes-hamster-worse. = cha ching! Money maker!....

step #5.
Go field test and try to make some money.

May the darkside rewards you.

I remember doing a little google research on "happiness apps", ...basically an app that tell women "inspiration stupid shite" to make them feel better; there was one with thousands of download even though all it does is tell woman how awesome they are.

Ironic, semi-ironic or not. This is the ridiculous nature of the times we live in. As an experiment, i did a quick google search for "happiness apps"...while most are free....after a couple of minutes later i found some that sell for $1.99 and had a couple thousands download already...just an app with stupid words and pictures to tell women how great and awesome they are. can you fracking believe that shite? Empty calories.

Hey, if the decline is coming as some say... as a true capitalist, while not make a quid or buck off it? Don't blame the player, blame the game.
