perceptual distortion

When an individual perceives a person, place, or thing, or him or herself in a way that is different than the way most other people perceive it.
When he got to his 60s, the many failures he suffered in his life distorted how he perceived his surroundings, individuals, and many other things. That is called perceptual distortion.

Legally Happy

When an individual feels happy doing something legal.
Knowing that playing music after 11:00 P.M. would be make him illegally happy, the teenage boy raised the volume of the music he was listening to and was legally happy knowing that from 7:00 A.M. to 11:00 P.M. the police, enforcing the laws, allowed anyone to play music below 8 decibels.

Consumer Self-Isolation

To get consumers to go buy things,

via the media,
corporations make individuals feel

so superior to most people

they feel disgusted of others

and stop interacting with them.
The glorification of movie stars, and the innate—it seems—cognitive bias that makes everyone think they're better than almost everyone else, help induce "consumer self-isolation".
