Somad

A modern evolution of the "nomad." While an ancestral nomad wandered from place to place in search of food to survive, a Somad (social-mad) wanders from place to place in search of 5G signal, trending aesthetic spots, and clout. A Somad’s survival is entirely dependent on "likes" rather than calories. They are easily identified by their selfie sticks, pouting faces, and the fact that they are currently blocking your view of a national landmark.

"I tried to enjoy the sunset at the Grand Canyon, but a group of Somads spent forty minutes taking the same photo of their iced coffees in front of the ledge."

"Is he actually a traveler, or just a Somad hunting for a new profile picture?"
