Driving to the rich part of town and seeing pretty people in German Luxury Vehicles cut you off could be considered depressing. The difference between this, HN and social media is that you have an encapsulated view of what you think is someone's personal life. Some guy on the headline of HN makes a career out of implementing Ruby interpreters. That's great, but that's his work life. He could be divorced with 4 kids. The rich guy with the hot wife that cut you off, he could be an attorney for ExxonMobil or some other miserable high paying role. Social media is false proof that regardless of status or true well being, you have the opportunity to paint the shape of your life.
