To be fair, Lego isn't a bad investment. Even with open boxes and pieces missing, big sets will still sell for double if not more some time after being discontinued. I had a pirate ship that retailed at ~$100, now people are selling it on ebay for between $400-$2800 depending on the condition. Unfortunately mine has long since been lost to younger relatives. Oh well.

Something about a crowd of adults doing this is deeply frightening:

I usually can't stand the "ackyshually environmentalism/wokeism/atheism/etc. is a religion" hot take, but yeah, these people have replaced Jesus with capeshit:

Harry Potter/Disney consoomers and Ukraine supporters seem to follow on the same pipeline, for some reason.

Sure there are some people that still support Russia, but I don’t ever recall them being consoomers on this level.

Even better is when they bring up the Hunger Games without realizing that they are the Gaggle of freaks that occupy the capital

"My youngest just got brain surgery to remove a tumor on his frontal lobe. they had to remove parts of his brain to save him and now he has scars all over his forehead" "wow, it's like when Voldemort almost killed harry but, instead, left him with a lightning bolt scar" ffs these people are smooth brains.

Slight powerlevel about consoomerism and graphic design.

I am a professional graphic designer and I used to love it, basically lived to create something. Then reality smacked me in the face and I saw what my future was going to be in this field: Advertisements, advertisements, advertisements. Product/package designs, labels, sales pages. Everything boils down to selling something, making money for someone and I am the monkey that does the shit work so the other little monkeys would consoom and the big fat ape gets bigger and fatter. Well, I quit my profession and went to a field that actually helps people instead of encouraging them to mindlessly consoom and waste their money. Sometimes I feel like a loser for giving up on my career but my character just can’t handle being the puppet aiding in the ever growing market of shit. This is not meant to be a ”holier than thou” post but a perspective from someone who’s living was made of just trying to make everything as appealing as possible to increase consooming.

I always wanted one of those really cool expensive lightsabers. Seeing these people makes me not want to have one anymore. It's not even the famous sour grapes, it's "do I really want to be like those people?"

Found this in the otome games reddit that I lurk a lot on. This woman bought more otome games than she wanted and budgeted for just so she could have a complete row in her Switch game library. Not because she really wants to play them, but just for that reason and she passes it as lulsoquirky.

There are a lot of people like that in the otome community that just buy shit of their favorite games and husbandos and post their shrines. I remember someone bought a Yang pillow, not even a full body pillow, like, just a normal ass pillow with Yang's face on it for almost five hundred dollars. This one just really stood out to me because it is such a stupid reason to buy shit.

Don't look up a Milkshake Bar then, because that looks like something taken straight from one of them.
Milkshake Bars are trendy ice cream shops decorated like a hipster bar where the food is designed more for looking cool on Instagram than for actually being eaten. Their shakes are normal shakes, but served in a decorated cup with oversized toppings (i.e. full size cookies/brownies instead of crumbled up pieces like a traditional shake).
Some examples:

Note the full size donut, cheesecake slice, and cookie on top of the shakes.
