Congratulations! You are what marketers refer to as a "harbinger customer", and any new product you like is probably doomed. I'm in the same boat. Use this power wisely. https://archive.ph/iKK4m
Every fucking time.
Worst example for me are these little stick-less ice cream thingies
I loved them as a kid (hate the feeling of biting wooden sticks), and then they suddenly vanished. Now I've finally found them again, but they're prohibitively expensive.
Do you have any eastern European grocers near you? They should sell frozen cheesecake bars that might scratch that itch, looks like these though you might have to settle for lithuanian ones if you're in a country that sanctions Russia
I'm in South America, so it's pretty hard to find anything European here.
These ice cream cubes are produced nationally, so I suppose it's just a resource allocation problem. The box one seem pretty great for the environment btw, the only trash they generate is a small cardboard box.
Isn't that just a Klondike bar in a slightly different shape?
Isn't a Klondike® Bar just an older Statesian version of a Eskibon? \s
But yeah, they're the same thing. The parent company for both is Unilever, so they could even have some kind of patent/trademark sharing thing going on.
I've never had the stickless kind, but I'm kinda with you I hate the wooden stick. I don't like biting into it. I don't like licking it. It makes it so I get melted ice cream all over my fingers because it slowly drips down the stick. Down with sticks.
I HATE THE WOODEN STICKS TOO!!!!!
omg
just really excited to have in common this random thing I've never expressed
fucking hate cronching on a stick, it is like a deep personal betrayal in my mouth, ugh
Yeah. I wish I had the large house of a mormom suburbanite so I can just bulk buy this shit in a little warehouse section and at least not have to worry about running out for a couple years of stuff like this. Soda and deodorant are the worst for limited edition versions.
I live in constant terror of this
It's especially rough on me because I can only use certain deodorants because most of them give me chemical burns
So far only happened with V8 vegetable juice. Just up and vanished and I don't even know why, I can't find anything anywhere about it like I just dreamt the product up.
This happened to me with Cuban egg rolls
Unusual fusion pull, love it. Of course it's laborious but don't be afraid of making egg rolls yourself. Decadent shit.
Not really, but I have found products that's I've found once and then never again. Like this chocolate bar that was nothing but milk chocolate and whole peanuts. You'd think that combo wouldn't be hard to find but it is! And no, I'm not talking about Mr Goodbar or whatever that shitty waxy american "chocolate" bar is called
oh god all the time I hate it
I'm not even picky about most things, but not being able to just get something I like and stick with it makes me feel all 
Why did they stop selling blueberry mini wheat's? Fruity bites and bix just aren't the same :(
i get this real bad with mecha models, if you like anything but Transformers figures or Gundam Brand Gundam model kits you have to scour the internet for deals or pre-orders or used-but-not-assembled kits, everything is limited production small batch stuff or old enough that the IP is just no longer profitable or recognizable. I bought a model kit of a RK-91/92 Savage mecha from the show Full Metal Panic (kinda shite show from the 3 or so episodes i checked out but really cool diesel powered cold war soviet badguy mecha designs), at the time i bought it they were like 40 or 50 each, now its closer to 70 to 90 because the kits are so rare and the show wasn't that popular.
Almost any otaku-y thing in Japan runs on the limited edition, limited run, fomo model and has for many years. Truly they were the first country to arrive at late stage capitalist stagnation.
Been chasing pepsi lemon for like 20 years now
There's a certain brand of cinnamon chewing gum they stopped selling where I live. Now the only ones around (and they're just online) are those little squarey ones, not the better, flat rectangle types

What is Neurodivergence?
It's ADHD, Autism, OCD, schizophrenia, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, aspd, etc etc etc etc
“neurologically atypical patterns of thought or behavior”
So, it’s very broad, if you feel like it describes you then it does as far as we're concerned
Rules
1.) ableist language=post or comment will probably get removed (enforced case by case, some comments will be removed and restored due to complex situations). repeated use of ableist language=banned from comm and possibly site depending on severity. properly tagged posts with CW can use them for the purposes of discussing them
2.) always assume good faith when dealing with a fellow nd comrade especially due to lack of social awareness being a common symptom of neurodivergence
2.5) right to disengage is rigidly enforced. violations will get you purged from the comm. see rule 3 for explanation on appeals
3.) no talking over nd comrades about things you haven't personally experienced as a neurotypical chapo, you will be purged. If you're ND it is absolutely fine to give your own perspective if it conflicts with another's, but do so with empathy and the intention to learn about each other, not prove who's experience is valid. Appeal process is like appealing in user union but you dm the nd comrade you talked over with your appeal (so make it a good one) and then dm the mods with screenshot proof that you resolved it. fake screenies will get you banned from the site, we will confirm with the comrade you dm'd.
3.5) everyone has their own lived experiences, and to invalidate them is to post cringe. comments will be removed on a case by case basis depending on determined level of awareness and faith
4.) Interest Policing will not be tolerated in any form. Support your comrades in their joy!
Further rules to be added/ rules to be changed based on community input
RULES NOTE: For this community more than most we understand that the clarity and understandability of these rules is very important for allowing folks to feel comfortable, to that end please don't be afraid to be outspoken about amendments and addendums to these rules, as well as any we may have missed
