Nothing to get. Just upper middle class people who have surrogated every difficult thing in their lives and now without struggle or meaning need something to fill that. So a utilitarian task - walking somewhere - suddenly becomes a think piece on how to walk somewhere better than other people.

Saying that, it’s nice to keep your head up wren walking around a nice place.
