So I choose to take one day off of shopping and avoid insane crowds, while I appreciate the things I already have and recognize how much consumerism drives me to buy things I don't need ... and therefore I should "move somewhere else" and I'm "a turd".
Nice chat.
It's almost like you two recognize on some level that you're in a hamster wheel, and your overwrought "defence" (ie. attacking me) is cognitive dissonance ...

no, its mostly just pent up angst from consumer abstinence throughout the year. can't tell you how worth it it really is though when you blow every last drop of your responsibly apportioned disposable income at 3+x the purchasing power in a single glut. lot more satisfying than paying to change the corporate chamber lot throughout the year with nothing more than a wink and contemptuous smile.

you're not a turd either, just sometimes. You can be thankful for your stuff, butt stuff is best appreciated everyday, not just one day
