bobzankz··on Costco gained a cult following by breaking every rule of retail
My family has had mixed feelings about Costco. While it does sell bulk products, it makes local business struggle for clientele and sometimes runs them our of business. As someone from a family who has a locally run business it is difficult to support.
bobzankz··on Selfie-seeking Instagrammers are ruining the world’s beautiful places
I agree, people have always been taking photos while traveling or visiting a specific location. Passing blame or shamming individuals for taking selfies does not seem like the proper route to take if there is a problem (which i am not saying there is or isn't). When I was younger I enjoyed taking selfies at spots but as I have aged and studied media in University my perception of the selfie has changed and I think that may be a solution to this - not shamming through articles.
