Before Jason died, he actually created a subreddit for things like this. We never really did anything with it, but it has 53 subscribers and a few posts. Haha

Lol didn't see this. That's awesome. RIP. With all the ridiculous (and frankly unsafe) new vendor posts, I thought time was ripe. And as I mentioned in another post, I really do enjoy seeing them get roasted.

It's crazy to see all these shitty new entries into the market. It's painfully obvious they are just trying to capitalize on what they see as a trend. At least do some fucking research on the basics of developing a supplement before you subject people to your shitty untested blend! And what kind of idiot uses terms like "The KING of nootropics" when there are fruit flies that are older than their company, and they do not even know basic things like volumetric capacities of the different sized capsules? I could at least be a little less harsh if these hack companies had a little humility in their statements, or made it seem like they give two shits about actually making a good product; or people's safety, for fucks sake...
It's like if one day I decided that wooden chairs are so hot right now. Then I started making my own chairs, but I did not research woodworking at all, and just glued a bunch of wood I found together to make a monstrosity of a seating device. Then I immediately came out saying my chairs were the best, and making claims about the exotic woods I used in it, but I have no evidence what type of wood it was. I do not even have the knowledge to understand the different woods that are out there! Birch? Zebrawood? Pine? Balsa? What are those?!? Then I gave a few away free for Amazon reviews, and had a couple of my friends write some reviews too. Then I sat back and waited for the cash to come flowing in.
People would think I was an idiot, and nobody would buy my piles of glued together strips of dead tree. That's what these new nootropics companies are like. They are people gluing together random pieces of wood, and thinking people will flock to them like they are a master carpenter. Or you have the people that just copy what other innovative companies are doing, then badmouth them. "I made this!" Fucking ridiculous.
