And the stories are multiple.
We have never enough stories.
But there needs to be some type of plot, some story attached to it.
If it's just a transaction, then people end up feeling really too commodified.

You know that the negative feeling is there is that it's a sense of feeling empty, feeling used, feeling that you just did that thing, but it didn't give you any of the it's like eating and not tasting anything.

Even if it's just simple, sheer recreational nourishment, that's fine.
