    interesting term for over hype.

    it includes ambition.

    threat?

    but stressing about what to buy in a supermarket is decadence.
    unlike
    your house is burning

    is it the uber ideal of being?

    It is a social construct, dedicated to perpetuating the sense of fear and failure into individuals therefore undermining their self esteem. It stems from a conspiracy between Government and the Media to ensure that the 'masses' are so wrapped up in concerns over appearing successful and therefore buying branded goods rather than 'budget' brands, that they have little time or emotional strength left to question the creaping loss of liberty.
