Seriously, there's no way they didn't choose that shit on purpose.

      there we go. that makes sense. could also be a nazi dogwhistle. come to think of it, summing up purchases these days is mostly a matter of whether you have a phone on you and can use the calculator app. The smart thing to do though is look at unit prices and not prices. With food/drink at least. You can have something that looks cheaper but the package is just oversized and the price per gram or whatever is the same or higher.

        Yeah but I don't think many people take their phone out and add up every individual item they're buying as they buy them. I think it's more common to guesstimate the total price based on how much things usually cost and then bite the bullet if it's a bit higher.
