[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The preoccupation with expensive, international vacations has always been an UMC thing that feels very trashy. [/quote]

I feel like it's gotten way worse in recent years. Maybe fueled by viral shows like White Lotus? And certainly social media plays a part.[/quote]

Very gaudy and tasteless.

It is hard for me to comprehend how many so-called adults are obsessed with social media and status.  WTF?  Grow up.

Boasting and self-absorption has been normalized. [b]Everyone young and old scrolls on their phones all day looking at glamorous celebs, random pretty people, and pseudo friends sharing every detail about their day.[/b][/quote]

Uh, no.  But this says a lot about you.  I have no social media and DGAF what the Joneses are doing.  I may ask in passing where they're headed for travel making polite conversation though.  I may even ask again as I probably forget the answer 5 min later.  It's like asking me what the weather was like 2 weeks ago on Tuesday - I have no idea...[/quote]
