Swipe Left on High Prices: Online Shopping's Dating Game

Imagine a world where your perfect partner is just one swipe away—except in this universe, your soulmate is a discounted air fryer with next-day shipping. Online shopping has turned the age-old quest for bargains into a digital courtship ritual.

Let’s face it—if Mark Twain were alive today, he’d likely revise his famous quote to say, “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the Wi-Fi is still connecting.” The internet, that glorious cesspool of memes, cat videos, and questionable life advice, is also the natural habitat for some of the most outrageously obvious lies ever concocted.

Let’s face it: the internet is a wild west, but with fewer cowboys and way more phishing emails. Security threats lurk in every hyperlink and harmless-looking cat video. For years, we’ve tried to fight fire with…slightly better firewalls, elaborate passwords (P@$$w0rd1234, anyone?), and trusty antivirus software that somehow always flags “solitaire.exe” as a danger to national security.

Once upon a time, friendships were forged in the fires of shared experiences.
