i hate elitist expensive classy food culture
In all seriousness this is what Iām talking about whenever I go off on how the rich canāt even spend their fucking money. Do you honestly think these fuckers are getting that much enjoyment out of these goddamn gummy bears compared to regular store-bought one? No, they get enjoyment out of the CONCEPT of them, out of the thrill of conspicuous consumption in the face of people who actually have to work for a living, or who, god forbid, donāt even have the opportunity. So theyāll buy seven houses when you would be hard-pressed to justify them owning two, and theyāll buy huge-ass limousines and designer clothes just to look a tiny bit cooler (as if any real fan of a celebrity gives a fuck about the label theyāre wearing rather than the content they put out, or the persona they have, or even the way the outfit actually LOOKS), and theyāll pay out the ass for ludicrously expensive ingredients placed in such ludicrously tiny portions that they can barely fucking taste them. I donāt understand it even slightly. I can barely imagine what Iād do with $150,000 a year, much less millions. And Iām not even like a āsimple pleasuresā fanatic ā sure, I get the appeal of a second house! I get the appeal of regular vacations! I get the appeal of eating steak five nights a week, drinking expensive champagne! But wealth disparity has become so fucking absurd in this country and on this planet that those quasi-reasonable luxuries arenāt enough, so they have to make up bullshit that canāt possibly even be enjoyable in its own right just so they can feel good about having money. Itās disgusting. Eat the rich.
