In what universe is anyone in economy getting bags of peanuts that large

Those aren't peanuts. Pnuts are salted packaging foam.

I though it was a new Boeing Max 9

Many people are aware of the reference even if they haven't seen the full film

Hilarious as someone currently crammed into such seat waiting for departure.

Ancient Egyptian comic strip.

They're like packaging peanuts, but with salt.

Money bags on the wing that paid for the upgrade to have a seat.

A cost cutting measure because those that didn't pay for the upgrade usually don't complete the journey.

And it's only a $20 discount...

When you're so poor the airline prefers to spend more money on fuel than they charge you (due to worse aerodynamics) just so the other passengers don't need to share air with you
