consume! consume! consume! start consuming, feel the ever-present looming! who cares about nature’s pure essence when you have to worry for material obsolescence consume! the rat race is for you! ... you know that feeling you got that one time? when the breeze whispered gently and you tingled inside you dipped your bare toes in the lake and smiled for no reason in the sunshine? do you remember the smell of fresh jasmine, the way the music floated through open windows in the afternoon that moment in the song when you could feel every heartbeat in the room? those feelings don’t matter to us. what matters is that you consume.

Perceived Obsolescence
consume! consume! consume! start consuming, feel the ever-present looming! who cares about nature’s pure essence when you have to worry for material obsolescence consume! the rat race is for you! ... you know that feeling you got that one time? when the breeze whispered gently and you tingled inside you dipped your bare toes in the lake and smiled for no reason in the sunshine? do you remember the smell of fresh jasmine, the way the music floated through open windows in the afternoon that moment in the song when you could feel every heartbeat in the room? those feelings don’t matter to us. what matters is that you consume.
