"You don't care!"

A new apartment means a whole new set of cleaning supplies. Huzzah! This ranks up there with electronics (and as the exact opposite of Denis Gagnon) when it comes to dull shopping.

While in search of, among other things, a Swiffer, I saw some products with the brand name, "If You Care." These products not only are environmentally sound, but are judging you. If you cared, you wouldn't buy Reynolds Wrap, you'd buy "IF YOU CARE® 100% Recycled Aluminum Foil."

This is the kitchen-products equivalent of the recommendation, at the end of "An Inconvenient Truth," that one of the things you can do to stop global warming is to encourage as many people as possible to see the film.
