Tim’s take
Costco is his stand-in for a culture that turned casual shoppers into fanatics buying more food than any family needs 45:10 51:46. He remembers it fondly too, as the place he ate alone in the food court instead of going to class 45:07. He wants Ozempic to make Costco as repulsive as it should be, an 'easy way out' he says works because it's easy to be an animal in there 56:30 1:00:12. Separately, 'the Costco family' becomes his term for viral, cringe internet content families, a reference so online that he needles Tucker Carlson for not knowing it 1:53:59 2:08. He calls them 'the good times,' stupid and demonic but still something to miss once the culture gets worse 38:34. Beyond that it's mostly a prop — a backdrop for a nervous ad exec bit or for a shooter's parents doing their weekly grocery run days after the attack 32:44 5:57 10:48.
