    all my friends ever want to do is go out and spend lots of money. weird how that works.

    even the ones i met from ‘free’ events.

        right, and get a better job, and get a better car, and get bigger house… oh right, we’re being ‘anti-capitalist’ by doing those things… right?

        there are no ‘better’ friends. my friends are human beings. that is what human beings do. they consume. you seem to think they live in some parallel university where everything is free. i mean, yeah i know some dumpster divers… funny thing about those folks is they have trust funds. pretty easy to be a ‘freegan’ when mom and dad pay your bills and you the get to spend your money on festivals instead of food.

        ironically it’s the most money obsessed people I’ve ever met were the most ‘feminist’ ones. and the worst friends, because they were raging hypocrites about almost everything. the friends i have now are at least honest about just wanting to get a beer or see a show or watch a ballgame. it’s nice being around people who lack pretense and just want to enjoy life without filtering through some weird ideology.

          You have such a negative view on everything, no wonder you cannot find chill friends… You surely scare them off long before a frienship could grow…

            i’ll stop being ‘negative’ when people start following the virtues they love to preach, instead of doing the opposite and holding endless double standards for themselves… just like the author of the article.
