Having room empty 99% of time, empty guest room and unutilized pickup brings me far less stress than dealing with situation when I actually need them.
How is that annoying?
- lukas099 3y agoThe 'annoying' part of my comment was not well thought out on my part, and I would take it back if I could. I guess that what is annoying is being in the situation of having opinions like that which are unconventional.

Capitalism pushes me to live comfortable life? > Car rentals and Airbnbs literally are the answers for both. “You will own nothing and be happy”?
- Dylan16807 3y ago> Toxic how? Literally. Pollution. > Capitalism pushes me to live comfortable life? Capitalism pushes you to buy things that won't actually make you more comfortable. Or that are very ineffective. > “You will own nothing and be happy”? Yes, definitely. Suggesting you rent for rare occasions is the same as owning nothing.

I can't count the massive amount of stuff we have at home and don't use at all despite my active pushing against those, literally everybody I know is in the same situation.
