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

This guy looks like if an eight year old had wished to be big. Like taking an eight year old kid in photoshop and just making him adult sized. His proportions are all fucked up and he looks like a fucked up adult baby monster is what I'm trying to say.
 
Don't forget the optional AMG pack. Nothing like seeing a tasty-looking C-Class coupe on the road then gapping it in a Mini Cooper because it's rocking a 2.1 litre diesel. The epidemic of AMG/S-Line/M factory upbadging is really ruining the appeal of actual fast German cars if you ask me.

Another note, car finance is a massive piece of consoomer culture, at least in the UK. Not sure what it's like in the states, but Personal Contract Purchase (PCP) is absolutely everywhere and every mouth breathing mug with £399 a month is jumping into a brand new car for a few years then chopping it in for a new one, normally accruing negative equity while they're at it and sucking themselves into an endless cycle of renting a fucking Ford Focus.
The idea of fast car = good always seemed autistic to me, for the most part you're either going to be maintaining a constant high speed or travelling at speeds way slower than the maximum your car is capable of.

I've personally always preferred chunkier looking cars and tbh I don't think you can beat a mercedes in that area, the front end just looks nice as fuck. That being said, the idea is to buy them used because they depreciate like crazy (like every other car), kinda baffles me people buy them on finance, they must have really fucking good job security

Nintendo today is like the Simpsons on the 9th season, where they are just crossing that threshold from consistent quality to normalized mediocrity. Their franchises have gotten so huge they don't even have to make well rated games anymore to make trillions thanks to the mere exposure effect and thats probably going to be the trend in coming years, more nintendie theme parks, movies and adult sized mario kart themed beds for depressed manchilds while their games and hardware become increasingly lackluster

Looked at this and wanted to see what the episode summary of the worst rated episode, which was season 30, episode 18, with a 4.5 putting it below a clip show, the worst rated episode of the first nine season and only dark red box on that side of the chart.


"Bart and Lisa make their way to Krusty's studios where the girls are about to drop the tapes into a vat of nail polish remover. As Bart unsuccessfully tries to reason with them through mansplaining,"

The reception section mentions only the positive reviews. Its disgusting how every tv/film that panders hard for a message rather than entertainment is then lied about in the media as being a big hit, and that audiences and critics loved it. Soon a chart like this showing objective fan ratings will be considered hate speech, and evidence of anyone not liking buck breaking 8 will be considered a conspiracy. If the ghostbusters reboot happened this year, there'd only be coverage saying how big of a hit it was and it was the number 1 thing streamed this year.

It's more having the capability than using it 100% of the time. I like driving quickly where I can get away with it, and a fine handling, quickly accelerating motor is exactly the kind of car for me. There's a lot of factors that go into any car purchase, that's why there are so many different kinds of car.

I agree that Mercs do look good, they've come on leaps and bounds since some of the more awkward designs of the late 90s. The thing for me is that people buy cars that are all mouth and no trousers, under-speccing the engine in the name of fuel economy or 'muh monthly payments', it's just disappointing. If I'd be buying one it would be an AMG or a big spec V6/V8, the weedy diesels or 1.8 petrols just don't cut it.

But yeah, I know some people who will get a car on finance purely for the sake of it being brand new, which to me is the most consoomer shit you can see. If you want a car these days and you want it from a mainstream dealer, go a few years old and go approved used. Let some other retard soak up the worst of the depreciation for you!
 
I never understood how or why people get into Funko Pops, it just seems like a waste of time and money
Getting one or two of a character you really like is understandable, even if I personally think they're ugly as sin. But these collectors can't possibly be interested in all the intellectual properties they're buying pops of, they don't have time to watch that many movies etc. with all the time and effort they spend collecting.

Wow, I must have forgotten to post this guy, because he’s the one who actually got me INTO following the various Funko Humans of YouTube. Specifically, this video where he “reviews” fellow consoomer Maxmoefoe’s gigantic Funko pop collection:
Honestly, Maxmoefoe is a great example of the endgame consoomer: you spend all this money on worthless shit you don’t care about SOLELY because it’s rare (in the video Max talks about how he bought both sets of prototypes for some Funko Pop just to say he was the only one in the world who owned it… lol what a faggot) and all you end up with is a room full of trash that you don’t give a shit about. In the video, you can hear the clear resentment in his voice when he talks about them, and apparently he’s trying to get rid of his “collection” with little luck.

This unironically fills me with dread. I am not exaggerating for funnies when I say those photos make me genuinely uncomfortable and I would not feel safe there.
Same here. It fills me with dread because you just know the kind of person who put all that together is the kind of person who would freak the fuck out if you picked up one of the figures to check it out for yourself, and that might make you accidentally knock over a bunch of other ones, causing a chain reaction where everything he meticulously stood up falls over. If he freaks out over one figure, imagine how he'd get if you knocked down his whole shelf. Holy shit, run.

Plus, for such a huge collection, he sure doesn't have anything securing all of those figures standing on their tiny little legs. Nothing's on a stand unless it's built in, and nothing's behind glass. The floor is taken up with even more figures sitting atop of what looks to be some kind of plastic shipping boxes, and the wall really gives no breathing room.

A collector who knows how to organize their collection can do it elegantly, and it's really not hard. Get a curio cabinet, or at least whack together a few pieces of wood and cut out a piece of acrylic, add a couple of hinges, and attach it to your homemade display case. Part of the joy of collecting something you enjoy is to display it in the nicest manner you can, and not just have a chaotic clusterfuck of stuff that makes you look insane.
 

This is Gary 'Nerdrotic' Beuchlers youtube room.


I'm sorry to break it to you guys, but whatever his other flaws are like being part of the Fandom Menace, he's long-time married, with kids. I think a lot of that collection might have come from the second-hand bin at the comic shop he used to own, too. Consoomerism, with caveats.

IIRC he moved all that from Commiefornia to, Nevada, was it? A few months ago. He took all that stuff down and stuck it all up on the new walls, one by one.
