As soon as I saw this post, I knew the dark jokes were incoming. I just didn't think we'd hit rock bottom so fast. That's just the tip of the problem, in my opinion.
Well done
Don't life jackets have an expiration date?
New ones do. These old ones were built to last. That's why they are so expensive I guess.
They say this lifejacket is unsinkable too
Even 2 miles below the surface of the ocean the Titanic isn't safe from capitalism.
Cmon at least tell me what it’s filled with. Balsa wood? Cork?
Cork
At that price, maybe they think it will keep the economy afloat.
