bubblewrap
Satisfying shipping material
Bubblewrap is plastic sheeting with air-filled pockets, used as protective packaging for fragile items.
The bubbles cushion against shock during shipping.
Popping the bubbles is a common idle pastime, satisfying enough that apps simulate the experience: I spent ten minutes popping bubblewrap instead of unpacking.
Also spelled bubble wrap.
