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

The worst part about this is that you don’t even live in a nice place. You’ll live in Orlando, you’re next to EPCOT and that’s it. Fucking terrible city, capital of consoomerism and hot and humid all year. Can’t even swim in the lakes because you’ll die from alligators, flesh-eating bacteria, or Disney World sewage. Did I mention the hurricanes too? Why would you choose to live here?
The scary part is the website says there are no available homes left.
 
Why are they making such a big deal over the blue milk anyway? Before people would just point out that Luke drank blue milk in that one scene, huh kinda weird, and that's about it.
Because without the EU Star Wars is extremely light on lore, and since Disney nixed the EU now all we have are the films.
 
It's the nerd archetype.
That shit is the worst. Like stupid nerd shit is some sort of monolithic sub culture. People who first meet me are shocked I'm into nerd shit because I guess there's that archetype and don't own a single Marvel t-shirt.

I'm not even closeted about nerd shit but people are surprised when they find out I played TTRPGs like a fucking dork. I have have a Weyland Yutani front license plate and a Mario trading card hanging from my rearview. I guess because it's a pickup truck and has dirt bike gear stickers on the rear window it cancels out.

Basically this:

I know that thing. I'm a fan and have an identity because I know the thing. Look at this picture of me drinking the thing I know and praise me on Instagram to activate my burnt-out dopamine receptors.
 
"nostalgia"

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.
a lot of these people really weren't that old during the time. I always see people born in the late 90s saying how they're a 90's baby and are obsessed with it. why? you were like four and you remember this? this whole 90's aesthetic vibe bullshit is cringe. "Imagine yourself, it's 98 and you are going over to your friend's house to play on his N64 and drink some HI-C". I never really understand it. it's also odd since most of these people wouldn't like it anyway. dial up internet, no smartphones, and no one is going you call you by your chosen pronouns. c'mon, drop the whole "this decade is my personality" shit.

I'd wish there were no smartphones and pronouns, I wanna go back

YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss.SSS enjoyer here, I prefer that alphabetical sort also work chronologically for things like files.

Yeah, this is how I do things. Any software that I have that makes use of a sizeable database (such as Adobe products like Lightroom and whatnot), you can generally define how to structure folders, and also what date standard you want to use.

YYYY-MM-DD is nice to use because it will never be confused between American and not-American standards. It’s the same standard everywhere.
 
God I fucking despise how they're eating.
Oh yeah. It's absolutely repulsive. It's bizarre, too. This isn't just a lack of manners. It's something different. It's almost as if they've become accustomed to people exaggerating online for emphasis and now they think that's normal behavior.

How much do you think she spent on that over priced average food? There's so many good spots in Orlando to eat and she's filling up on this slop.
 
You want dial up?
No, but plug-in-and-go Internet was a mistake.

@NoReturn : Yeah, they're eating how they think "sophisticated" and "fancy" people eat. Because they think they're both. The one I hate most is how people now drink with straws by sticking their tongues out to grasp the straw and pull it into their mouths. They look like infants reaching for the teat.

Being perpetually online wasn't a necessity in the 90s and everyone used to do just fine. The pandora box has been opened now, if you take my broadband now, in 2022 i obviously would have a lot of troubles like everyone else who has become dependant on it but i'd honestly be perfectly content with early to mid 2000s internet access. I don't care if downloading a movie from Kazaa takes me 2 days at 20kb/s and turns out to be gay porn, i'd trade higher speed if it means no social media. no cryptoscams, no nft apes, no twitter, no reddit, no zuckerberg, etc.

This looks disgusting. She looks sick the whole time. The company delish should have more than one person trying to eat the food at Disney, making one person do it is horrible idea. I did not like to watch that, not even a little bit, not at all.

Anyway.

Stupid designer clothings.

Nylon leggings for this price? No, thank you, I do not want it.

That lady has scoliosis or something. Her right shoulder doesn't sit at the same height her left shoulder does.

I never noticed that before, but you're right. When the hell did people start doing this?

Also, damn you for ensuring I'll never not notice it from now on when people do it.
