Feeling sexual arousal and pleasure by being exposed to unsatisfied consumers going to extreme lenghts expressing their lack of satisfaction, preferably with dumb and uneducated comments.
At work today I had a customer complained about an invoice fee, my body was tingling for hours and I couldnt focus on my job - that is consumeradism for you!

Get the Consumeradism mug.Reaching a point of sexual arousal by hearing,seeing or reading about frustrated customers. This state is common by people working jobs that deal with customers, eg customer service etc.
I felt my consumeradism come out when the customer said he would contact the authorities regarding his subcription, and my limb was getting rock hard

Get the consumerism mug.a term coined by Bruce Levine to describe the mindset of a group of people who "are singularly attached to cheap stuff."
The term describes a culture that "creates increasing material expectations" that often can not be satiated, "devalues human connectedness," "socializes people to be self-absorbed and selfish," "obliterates self-reliance," "alienates people from normal human emotional reactions" and "sells false hope that creates more pain."

Fundamentalist Consumerism is demonstrated en-mass on every Black Friday. On Long Island, NY in 2008, Wal-Mart employee Jdimytai Damour was trampled to death by customers stampeding into the store when the doors were opened. Police attempting to clear the scene were met with hostile reactions from customers, some insisting that they "had been waiting in line since yesterday morning" to get into the store. Fundamentalist Consumerism devalues all life in pursuit of 'stuff.'

Get the Fundamentalist Consumerism mug.1. The practice of conspicuously buying flashy, expensive items and expecting them to fill the voids in one's life.
2. A pejorative used to malign people who enjoy material luxuries, implying that it's impossible for a person do so without having an unhealthy fixation on them. Usually used as a sour grapes excuse to hate people who can afford more luxuries than one's self.

1. "Tiffany keeps spending all of her money on expensive designer clothing. When will she realize that it's personality, not consumerism, that wins friends?"
2. "Ugh, did you see Ted's new BMW with heated leather seats, a GPS navigation system, and a 6-disk CD changer? Anyone who would buy luxuries is obviously a disgusingly shallow and materialistic consumerist."

Get the consumerism mug.A seriously over-rated form of modern day cult of commerce, whereby people buy goods. This has led to a rise in needless temptation as well as popular culture, which in turn results in mindless youths sinking into the morass of peer pressure and attention-seeking behaviour, all for the name of cold, hard cash.
Otherwise, a desirable practice.

Get the consumerism mug.Consumerists are slaves with white collars. Advertisements have them chasing cars and clothes, working jobs they hate so they can buy shit they don't need. They are the middle children of history. No purpose or place. They have no great war, or great depression. Their great war should be a spiritual war. Their great depression is their lives. Raised by television to believe that one day they'll all be millionaires , movie gods and rock stars. But they won't.
