   I get the feeling that Luann is messing with them

   Coca Cola and Pepsi rather than just cola

   Maybe because they prefer the taste of, say, Coke over Pepsi or a store brand cola.

   Why do many people buy the next Apple product Because they don’t know any better

   Seek a particular brand of car? Because of the design or engineering, or because that is what they’ve always bought, or because that is where Dad, or Uncle Pete, or Grandpa worked

   All very similar reasons to why people, when they have a choice, choose to associate with other people who have proven themselves to be honest, reliable, hard working and self supporting over those who are just the opposite.

   A corporate “brand” (like Coke) is a name and no different from an individuals name (like Luann) and the actual brand is their reputation (both for corporations and individuals)

   I wish it was as intelligent and interesting as a blank slate.

   Everyone has a “brand”. Back in intelligent times it was called a reputation and it was earned by a persons actions and attire and words. It was a mutual thing. A persons actions displayed their “brand” and people who interacted with them interpreted and reacted to it.

   Were (are) you a good employee or co-worker, how honest and reliable and ethical are you. Were (are) you worth associaiting with.

   Now with Generations Narcissist it’s all about appearance, not actual accomplishments or even reality. Their motto is "This is how I see myself (my “brand”) and if you disagree I’m going to throw a hissy fit and have a meltdown until I get my way".

   You’re assuming he lives in the subdivision and under the fascism of the HOA

   Very appropriate analogy Tiff, especially if you discount that the Titanic was well designed, built, actually floated and made it out of port. Oh, and people actually used it and enjoyed it. It was a success. The only reason its success was so short was human stupidity (which is the main thing you two have in common with the Titanic)

   Try 5 weeks, this arc started on March 25th and the first mention of a rebranding assignment was on March 27th

   Using that assumption, then Toxic Bets is changing her clothing quite frequently and for no apparent reason. Within “minutes” she changed from a red tank top, to a purple button down, to an orange button down, to a black 3/4 sleeve pull over (or tee shirt).

   Luann changed her top twice during the minutes she was chatting with Tiff and Toxic Bets

   While Tiff kept wearing her K2 uniform, until this week.

   It would make one wonder why Toxic Bets travels with several changes of clothes.

   Plus they crammed a LOT of business planning into a few short hours. Going from conception, to harassing their first victim, to the after action review.

   Though I do tend to agree with you. So far most, if not all, of this took place over a few hours and throughout an entire night (with the math test forgotten). Tiff stayed in a waitress uniform and we did see Steff toweling off after a shower, and before the toxic duo left to ambush Luann.

    “Only” 20 minutes of running. That’s not bad and more than a vast majority of other people. A person has to start somewhere and that’s a pretty good start.
