Which came first, the product or the existential horror?

It’s some ‘sweet’ setup we have found ourselves in! Like a self inflating bubble, it provides its own impetus; Consume, feel an emptiness, consume some more. Not that I have any answers. The question seems to be, ‘what’s worth doing, on this ball of rock?’ Purchasing experiences must be better than purchasing objects, hence those savvy marketing devils have repackaged objects as experiences. Probably the best experiences aren’t shrink wrapped though. Tricky business.
