Champagne, Caviar and

Well, we have since reached the age of "Schrinkflation"
(where the once proudly worn Prunkschwengel was compromised by ice water.)
as made evident by the ever declinig sizes of the package
and content in the face of seemingly empty shelves.
But don't let them fool you!  The goods are there, they
are just less discernable because of their new sizes.

  All you need is a magnifying glass.
(Soon to require an SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope.)

Since the year 1200  schrinkflation was severely dealt with
by dipping the perpetrator into the brown Danube untill
he or she almost drowned. If the measure served was smaller
then the proper size a prolonged dip into the brown Danube
was prescribed (the practice, unfortunately, was stopped in 1773).



   

 

So how does the oil know
 to enlarge in one direction only (Y)?
It's got to have something to do with AI
