mass consumption

1) To use up goods or services, either by the consumers or by the companies that produce the goods or services. Thus it leads to waste and reduction of valuable resources. For the consumer, it can lead to stress, debt, obesity, waste, lack of space, etc.
2) The #1 thing that got us (America) into the economic mess that we are in right now. We only got ourselves to blame in this one.

Wow, it's the new $12,000 diamond iPod case! I must get it, even though I'm two months behind my four-bedroom home, about to lose my Lexus SUV, and have already maxed out three of my credit cards! Mass consumption...

Conjugate

The hard part about learning a new language. Conjugating the verb is changing the end of the verb so it fits the tense (past or present?), number (singular or plural?), person (1st, 2nd, 3rd?), and many other fancy grammatical aspects (perfect, imperfect?) of the rest of the sentence.

In German class, Brandon had to conjugate the verb machen:

Ich mache der kase.
Du machst der kase.
Er macht der kase.
Wir machen der kase.
Ihr macht der kase.
Sie machen der kase.

He was exhausted by the end of class.

consumaste society

(the word consumaste is a combination of consume and waste)

a society that is both one of excessive consumerism and excessive waste

not only is our North American Western society an unsustainable utopia based on planned obsolescence, it is also the epitome of a consumaste society. However, since this term was invented in the Canadian province of Quebec, it should also have a French equivalent, une societé de gaspillmation.
