There's one from doordash right now. A big family is sitting at the dinner table. The only person under 60 stands up, humbly, and starts to apologize to the familyfor somthing, paraphrased, "and I promise you, I will.." and the old people interrupt him, chiming in, "have $0 delivery fees on doordash?" and all the old people wont let him finish, they keep chirping like birds, "doordash had $0 delivery fees". The guy looks defeated. I hate it.

Like, my expierence with my family of boomers, they "sweep everything under the rug". They don't talk about bad things, therefore no growth ever happens, and trauma continues.

Here was an earnest man trying to make right, and the old folks basically make fun of it as not important as their consumerism.

ugh. fuck doordash

You are providing them with free advertisment. If you dislike them, maybe it would be an idea to excise the company name from the story.

There's no such thing as bad publicity. "Naming and shaming" leads to brand recognition leads to availability heuristic leads to more profits for the company being shamed. Many ads are intentionally grating to bait people into complaining about them.
