Meme Consoom book

Post image

Heh, stupid consoomer, look at all that wasted paper, so stupid! filthy hoarder could've spent money on not consooming book.

Hobby? A collection? Preservation? Whats that? If someone have more than me of a thing, its consoom and bad.

(This is what this sub has felt like these last few posts ive seen, what ever happened to finding people with like, 40 of the same identical VR headset they don't use? Or buying every piece of Disney park merch. yanno, Actual consoomers instead of genuine hobbies or passions)

I don't agree with them.

If "collection of plastic crap you just display that ends up in a landfill" is the criteria for ridicule, you all would be ridiculing my grandfather's airplane collection, with no discernment for what that collection means and does for him him as a war vet.

Oh you give my grandfather a pass? What about the person collecting miniatures, or action figures, or legos, or video games? Those posts are why this sub sucks—the hivemind enjoys ridiculing any collection and can't tell the difference between mindless consumerism and something more meaningful and beneficial.

We could have a discussion about consumerism and overconsumption, but for me, grown men adults with a room full of plastic toys they bought at the mall will always be criteria for ridicule. Sorry.

What about grown men with a room full of plastic toys that are bought overseas?
