Predictive text helped make a pretty great Gwenyth Paltrow Goop parody
Gwenyth Paltrow's Goop, a "lifestyle brand," is known for giving bizarre new-age health advice like giving yourself coffee grind enemas and steaming your vagina.
A group of artists parodied Goop and created "goob," a "new Gwyneth Paltrow." Its slogan is "feel overwhelmingly calm."
With headlines like "Listen to Your Body: Your Migraines are Podcasts Trying to be Produced" and "Is the Soul More Supple When You've Been Divorced? We Asked Two Dogs for Some Answers," it doesn't sound that different from actual Goop headlines.
