Plagued Consoomers / Consoomer Culture - Because if it has a recogniseable brand on it, I’d buy it!

It'll probably still be less obnoxious than May the Fourth or Pi Day.
At least they aren't national holidays, but I'm not betting any money against that happening in the future as more and more actual holidays get attacked for being "problematic."

Conspiracy theorizing aside, the fact that we have special days for intellectual properties is telling about our culture.

As for pi day, all the mathematicians in my life break the veil of intelligence when they get a bunch of shitty Safeway pies to celebrate. At least go to our local bakery, come on.
 
To avoid powerleveling too much, I have a niche side hustle going on and it's great! Not to toot my own horn but if someone finds my prices a bit high, they can go to cheaper artists and get what they pay for.
See, I agree with you, but now I want to know what yours is.
If you can find a niche market or at least offer a quality craft, it's definitely worth doing and I find it fun to do to begin with so it's a monetised hobby.
For certain things I've also found you get a higher-quality product at a lower price.

It's already happening with Superbowl Sunday. Has been for literal decades now.
 
It is currently March 10th, so it is now Mario Day. Because Mar10 looks like MarIO.

Keep an eye out for Nintendo consoomers celebrating this piece of shit faggot day.
Mario day is the laziest marketing that I’ve seen in some time. Mar10 = Mario. Wtf Nintendo didn’t even try this hard for Pokémon 25th anniversary last year.

I figure it's their version of Star Wars marketing using "May the 4th be with you".

By that same note, June should be PlayStation month, because PlayStation rhymes with GayStation.
 
Didn't see anyone point this out while scrolling back through chat, but because of the obi-wan didney shit reveal a few days ago, within fucking minutes of the inquisitor guy being a character in it literally everything that has him in it is now over 100 fucking dollars, and there's "value speculator"videos and shit that are clearly just trying to sell scalped goods. Prices aren't going to go down for a while thanks to scalper-squatters but demand is gonna be nil from anyone other than the desperate and consoomers willing to blow loads of cash especially if the fucking show is shitty like the boba fett one was.
There's enough merch of the fucking inquisitor to go around becaus e the series he's from is the one from a few years back people were shitposting about due to characters randonly being able to use lightsabers to fucking fly like helicopters despite it making no god damn sense.

You know, I consoom some product. I even collect it.

And I keep it in a small part of a small room in my house and don't post pictures of it online or otherwise talk about it with many people. But the people that do know about my pillow collection love my pillow collection.
Please don't let other people love your pillow collection.
 
Has someone in comments talking about it "punching down"...

I just saw a woman in a tshirt with The Beast's silhoutte and DADDY written in Disney font.
Wanted to die. Please, tell me it is not official B&tB merch.
Not to PL, but I used to be heavily involved in the arts & craft show world and knew so many ladies just like this that when I first saw that skit I about died. Yeah, some of them are sad sacks that bounce around from gig to gig wearing out their ADD interest or welcome. So what, still funny. Get your shit together Tracy.

Cricut merchandising! A coonsoomer market angled towards bored wealthy housewives who have a little creativity and a lot of money. I worked at a shop that sold them and we sold one a year or so, because they’re like 1400 with all the Disney licensing that gets bundled in. It’s a really interesting tool but it’s most often used to literally just print Minnie Mouse on a grandkid’s sweater. Or make disgusting joke shirts weirdo wine aunts can wear I guess.

This isn't nostalgia, it's just a pile of random old shit that was made between 1988 and 1999. Nobody who listened to Nirvana or Metallica was buying Tiger Beat or Spice World posters. And there's no actual home decorating idea expressed here, it's just clutter piled up on what looks like a low budget soap opera set.

At best this looks like a set for a T.V show set in the 90's. I can imagine it's the average girl next-door who just hit puberty and consumes everything popular. Basically the female version of the nerdy male character who liked Stat Wars and played video games.

The popularization of Pi Day is a a billion times worse than Mario day, it's nothing but Pop Science bullshit that nobody gave a shit about until twitter rolled around so you could make a hashtag out of it.

However there is a special retardation about May the Fourth because it is nothing but astroturf created by Disney.

I mean I did, but I was also an outlier who enjoyed different types of media for their own merit I guess.

I'm tired of the selling nostalgia shit though, just let it die and sit in our memories to member about together in peace on a porch while having drinks and a laugh.
 
After talking to a fuckton of people: literally everyone does the "I like X, but will also mix in some cheap pop thing I also enjoy". Or this is specifically a women's thing.
I think some people are just more willing to admit it than others. Suggesting you might like Dolly Parton's 9 to 5 might ruin someones super hardcore black metal gamer image.
