HEY LOOK, IT'S EVERY SUPERMARKET EVER. Huge automatic glass doors, shopping carts, aisles with stuff on shelves. So fucking creative.
Supermarkets really need to get with the times. I mean, barcodes? Please. It's like they're not even trying.

A supermarket isn't designed to sell you on a product.

Plates are sooooo 2010's if my food isn't served on a wooden board or a tile I'm not even interested.
But what's ridiculous is breakfast being served on a shovel.
Or a plaster mould of the chef's mouth.
Or spaghetti being just dumped all over the table.
If the joke is everything looks the same, then it also needs a sticky nav, ask for ur email, and ask if you like cookies.

They are literally designed to make you buy products. The milk in the back corner is the most famous example so that you have to pass by as much product as possible to get it and have less chance of not impulse buying. End caps…all the candy right next to the checkout lane, etc.
This conflates websites as a medium of art or personal expression vs websites as a medium of business communication. For the latter, I just want to get the point across quickly and painlessly. For the former, everyone is welcome to design whatever they want and consume as much time is required.
No, truly utilitarian websites look and function like this: https://smxi.org/docs/inxi.htm The template in the article is exact opposite. It conveys bloat, unoriginality and impedes efficient communication of information.
