When I went to school some kid tried to diss me by saying "I bet you got them at a discount" and I didn't understand, because I did and that meant we could also afford a winter coat from the surplus store.

    "LOL you paid less money for the same product" really sums up my entire problem with the obsession.

    It's one of the most disttilled forms of consumerism.

    These shoes made out of the exact same materials costs three times as much because of the name on them and the color combo, unless enough people don't agree they're cool and don't buy enough of them then the value plummets even though its literally the same product.

    It’s the same argument people had during the PS3/360 days. If you had a PS3 you were considered poor because you got to play online for free, while 360 users had to pay… for the exact same feature.
