I don't understand why people get so upset about this stuff.


How about TV manufacturers adding "class" after the inch listing so they can
list a 31.5-inch screen as a 32-inch screen? Or Tyson changing their 5# bag
of chicken wings to 4#, when it actually weighs 3.8#, but labeling it with
quotation marks around the "4 Pounds". What the hell does that mean? - On
top of that, it's also injected with water and "all natural" chicken broth.
Do you like air whipped into your ice cream to increase its volume to better
fill the container?


Well, TV screen sizes have always been exaggerated, and I don't eat a
lot of junk food like chicken and ice cream. I'm not suggesting that
deceptive advertising or labeling is OK, just that we all know that
inflation happens.
