You had me at Rick and Morty, then you threw me for a loop and broke down some serious math about statistics and distribution problems regarding Szechuan Sauce. Gold, motherfucking gold.

You had the classic bait and switch, which is a hallmark of comedy. Even if you aren't trying to make jokes, the juxtaposition between cartoons, fast food, and math is quality shit. You could have ignored jokes and doubled downed on the math and carved out a great niche.

This reminds me of The Motley Fool. You have a specific skill set that can make you noticeable if you can harness it. Marrying something boring like statistics and something wacky like cartoon dipping sauce shit is brilliant.

Where you fucked up is saying you don't really watch Rick and Morty. You just told your audience that you don't really care what you are talking about. Their reaction is to stop caring what you are talking about too.

Repeat after me: NEVER POINT OUT A NEGATIVE.

Never make excuses, never apolagise. Always act like you walked into a room full of lonely millionaire housewives on the verge of divorce and slammed your ten foot cock on the table and said, "Whaddup bitches, dinner is served."

If they don't eat it, it doesn't matter anyway. If they do, you have a customer for life.

"note: I do not really expect ANYONE to buy these, but hey, can't hurt to try right? LoL"

What the fuck is this! You just talked people out of buying something Cartoon Network just set a whole market for, so much that McDonalds just brought back a dead product from years ago because of it! You have packages of liquid gold in your pocket! Rich Aisians who love cartoons and don't live in America will buy this.

Dude! Assert yourself. Don't ask permission. Don't apologize. DON'T APOLOGIZE. DON'T ASK PERMISSION. DON'T EVER EXPLAIN YOURSELF! Do you. Don't think about what you think other people want, do what you think is interesting and fun. If you do anything else, people will smell bullshit a mile away and leave. But...When you do write about what you love...write like you are the god of it. You don't need to explain yourself. You wrote the fucking book. You like Crypto? No, you are Crypto. You don't ever ask for anyone else's approval because you are a grown ass man and you can do whatever the fuck you want.
