Neither am I. I'm in the same approximate income. My car and motorcycle are both 2002s. My computers I upgraded this year and last year, but previously were 2011 and 2013. Phone is an iPhone 7 with broken screen and camera. I put an effort into conserving. But you're not who I was making a point to, and coming in, with no other posts in this discussion, and pointing out that you conserve everything I tried to allegorically illustrate as common wastes comes across as... weird? rude? I don't know how to describe it, maybe just tone deaf?
- tjr225 5y agoI dunno, to be honest. I thought the original post I replied to was setting a low bar- that’s why I replied. There is a ton of free, nearly free, and cheap shit out there that works just fine. It’s not that difficult to use it. I’m not behind economically, my friends think I’m a little weird but whatever- almost everyone I know gets it.

My last job, there were multiple people with their cubicle walls covered to the top in funko pops, latest and greatest gaming was common cafeteria talk, and new engineers always had a fresh off the line car
