I know I'm going to get downvoted for this, but glitter is a microplastic – I hope we'll see it being used less in the future.

- mcv 8y agoI want to upvote you for your concern about microplastics, but my rule is to downvote people who complain about voting.
- Skywing 8y agoThank you for letting us know.
- MrStonedOne 8y agoI have the same rule. It sounds so whiny when they start their message decrying that they'll get downvotes for something. Its even worse when its not something they will get downvotes for. That's when you realize that they probably get downvoted a lot because of how whiny they are, only they always blame it on some other aspect because they have no self awareness.
- tylerl 8y agoUm.... OK.
- subcosmos 8y agoSo THATS why fish are so sparkly and shiny! Fabulous!
- hjek 8y agoGood point. There's plastic free glitter[0], which I've seen used at environmentally considerate festivals. He should use that for his pranks. I hope campaigns against single use plastic become more mainstream soon, and that will not happen without it being talked about more, so thanks for raising the point.

- MrStonedOne 8y agoWhy are you assuming he didn't?

- yummybear 8y agoI think, of course depending on country, most trash is burned. Assuming they vacuum it up and put it in the trash, the microplastic bit shouldn't be a problem, the the CO2 emission might.
- EForEndeavour 8y agoFeature request: replace glitter with indelible ink to eliminate microplastic pollution.
- rootusrootus 8y agoSome glitter is still made from metal, which is potentially catastrophic if you get it in your eye.
- MrStonedOne 8y agoYou have no idea what the fuck that glitter is made of in the video. Don't assume. And for the love of god, do not start comments out with "I know i'm going to get downvoted for this" I flagged you just for that.
- 0898 8y agoThanks for that.
