    I’ve felt the same way. I truly believe that these are two almost entirely separate groups of society that don’t interact. Because every time I find myself in a conversation with one of these people, they can’t seem to find a single interesting thing to talk about other than consumptive experiences.

    They’ll talk about theme parks and restaurants and TV shows and all these other things, but when you ask them “What do you do?”, often the only thing they can think to respond with is their source of income. They don’t make art or seek out unique corners of creativity because they don’t yearn to convey a message and relate. They already relate with everything in the world around them.
