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

ITT: people who have no friends

I genuinely like seeing what my friends are up to.
One just sent me a pic of the pool at a resort he stayed at. 8/10 looked comfy and hoped he had a good time.

Touch some grass (or watch some fireworks)

And because, nigger bling-bling. Don't know if it was intentional, but I like they made the black man look worse.

The concept that black guys don't look good in gold chains is new and upsetting to me.

Most people aren't professional photographers (who would be using professional equipment) and therefore are probably just taking pictures of their fucking lunch or a price tag at Costco. These 5-lens cameras are total overkill for most people's needs.

The phone I eventually chose was fairly lower-end, even that has a carbuncle of lens peering out like some anime robot. Though just today, I tried to take a photo with it, and ended up saying 'fuck it' and reaching for my 'real' camera.

I only have one friend who constantly direct texts me photos and videos of the mundane shit they're doing (obv this is a female), and what actually happens is that I just ignore most of it (and I never watch the videos)... There's no discernment, people don't take interesting, well executed photos, they don't wait for something worth capturing, they just consoom visual input expressly to "trade" it for simulated social interaction.

It's like being trapped watching someone's boring-ass slideshow, with the added disadvantage that they can beam it right to your location. Though with the advantage that you can more easily stuff it in your pocket and look away.

untold gigabytes of pointless footage sitting on hard drives that nobody is ever going to watch, hours and hours of time in which these thoughtless people robbed themselves of simply living in the moment and enjoying the reality that was in front of them.

This. Quoted because it bears repeating.

How many photos of the all-you-can-eat salad bar did he send?

You've made a compelling counter-point here. Much to my chagrin. I'll ask my friends (should I ever make any) to text me some 8/10 grass samples.
 
I will never understand why people are willing to spend thousands on cheap-quality jewellery from overpriced luxury brands that aren't even made from real gold/silver/gemstones/whatever and only buy it because its Versace. I really can't justify spending $1,500+ on a necklace that's made from brass only because its name brand. if I'm going to be spending that much I at least want it to be made from real gold, regardless of how nice some jewellery from luxury brands may look.

Also unrelated but I just don't want to doublepost, but the one breed of consoomer I don't get are the Pokémon fans. For every release or decision Game Freak has made since Sword and Shield, I always see the fans always nitpick at tiny details, complain about how lazy Game Freak is, bitch about how greedy TPC has become, say they're going to boycott the company, etc. only for them to end up buying the games they've been complaining about anyway, bitch again despite playing 100+ hours, and repeat this cycle of whining and consooming with each new game release.

i mean, keep in mind how absolutely massive the fanbase is. even with how titanic the butthurt can be seen, it's only a fraction of the total playerbase.

As for why even the complainers go back, it's like a home cooked meal that slowly has moved from meat and veggies to just veggies. You may not like the changes made, but you're still emotionally attached to it, and if you go buy something from a store, all you can think of is how different it is from the home cooked one.
 
This is officially the worst thing I've ever read, it absolutely terrifies me that people have no internal monologue or visualization abilities
I would like to learn their trick. Assuming it could be switched off and on again at will, it'd be nice to shut my internal voice up once in a while. Guy's a pain in the arse.

Do they force the Rebel and Empire suites to fight mock battles against one another and then set fire to the rooms and possessions of the losers?

Might be neat for kids, much like how Disneyland/world is, but I'm betting most of the passengers are just going to be adult star wars nerds.

While i understand how children and families could enjoy this kind of “experience”, I cannot help but cringe at the peculiar artificial Disney quality. It’s like their trademark. It’s almost sinisterly pricey and plastic like. Idk.

It's possible to go between the two, but very difficult to do it intentionally. Monks can spend decades learning to do it.

$6,000 to go to prison for 3 days?! What has Rona done to us!?
For those prices, you could stay in a nice resort in Hawaii.
So many massages...

It looks like fucking star trek TNG instead of star wars. Star wars pre-disney had a very specific aesthetic to ship interiors that this does not match at all. Shits supposed to be glossy white, brightly lit, and sterile looking with a hint of grime. Some rooms were grey and matte but those rooms still had the same extremely simplistic "space station" look to them. All this matte finish greys with colored trims on walls and shit with unnecessary greebling literally looks like star trek.
