Doesn’t seem that sad. In uni, I had attention to spare but no funds. Why is it so sad that one can deliberately trade that asset for coffee? And why is it so much better to transmute time into an intermediate asset first before trading it for coffee?
- GW150914 8y agoIt’s sad that you can’t opt out and just pay for coffee. If it were just an option it would be fine, but this is the only way.
- sbenji 8y agoYou can always just go to another coffee shop. It is not like this is the only coffee shop. I would have definitely participated when I was in school. Seems like a good service considering it could help you find a job after college.

- stringyham 8y agoIt's inconvenient to use something other than Facebook because all your friends/family are on it. Coffee is just coffee...
- jypepin 8y agoit's sad that we are getting towards a world where hyper consumption becomes such a focus and so important that advertising is able to get budgets that can support this kind of ads. The fact that you had attention to spare while in uni can also be seen as a loss (not a personal attack to you). But if you are in uni and don't have anything better to do but to listen to someone reading you ads, then, in my opinion, it's sad (again no attack against you).
