It's becomes very difficult, almost impossible, to distinguish an absolute scam from really useful things and services.

I've said this before, and I'm gonna say it again. DETOX PRODUCTS DON'T F*****G WORK! YOU DON'T NEED A DETOX! YOU HAVE A LIVER, A KIDNEY OR TWO (idk, maybe someone reading this has extra kidneys) AND OTHER ORGANS THAT NATURALLY DETOXIFY YOU! -
3.
Branded painkillers like Advil or Tylenol. Just buy generic and save money. It’s the same thing. -
4.
Peloton bikes. Over a thousand dollars to buy a stationary exercise bicycle and you still need to pay a monthly subscription to get the most out of the bike. -
5.
COLLEGE TEXT BOOKS. You need edition 10 for this class. They change one chapter in the book make it a new edition over price it and f**k the college kids. Always drove me nuts when I was I college. -
6.
Anything that claims to target the loss of fat from a specific area of your body. -
7.
Anything from Goop. -
8.
All of those weight loss teas influencers promoted a few years ago. They’re just laxatives. -
9.
homeopathy -
10.
Academic databases like Elsevier and JSTOR. No matter what you or your school pays for access, exactly $0.00 goes to the researchers. Fun fact: if you contact the researcher directly, they will usually email you a copy for free. -
11.
Insurance. The one product you pay for and are never supposed to actually use. And if you do use it, you are penalized. -
12.
Beats by Dre. -
13.
Single-use access codes for college textbooks is pretty much racketeering. -
14.
Any vehicle you have to pay extra to unlock a feature, specifically new cars -
15.
Those stupid copper and magnet bracelets. -
16.
The dietary pyramid/ federal dietary guidelines -
17.
McAffee and Norton antivirus software -
18.
Ear wax candles. Burn one not in an ear, and it still fills up with wax. -
19.
Sea Monkeys - I never got a single one with a crown and trident! -
20.
Are NFTs still famous? -
21.
That s****y Prime drink from Logan Paul, especially in the UK. Kids are using it as a status symbol because apparently its hard to get there? Its an overpriced energy drink, absolutely ridiculous. -
22.
Charcoal toothpaste. It scrapes your teeth -
23.
There was a product in the 80’s it was a blanket that gaurenteed you could lose weight by just sitting in it -
24.
Waist trainers. -
25.
Head On. Apply directly to forehead -
26.
The Shake Weight had its heyday -
27.
There was a Pet Rock when I was a kid. -
28.
I don't know about famous but it was out there. Back in the early/mid 00's there was a fuel saver module pimped over TV and the internet. You plugged it in your car to get more HP and better fuel mileage. It was just fancy marketing. All it did was trick your intake air temperature sensor into thinking the air was colder.
