Lol what are you guys even talking about? Social media has to go? Maybe learn to live with, or apparently, without it? Stop using it as a scapegoat for other problems you refuse to address.
Any community whether its cars, watches or gardens has a dick measuring contest. If people aren't flaunting money then they're flaunting time. The worst offenders always make themselves known so it's easy to ignore them.
But if you're a grown ass adult and still get wrapped up in what other people think then guess who's to blame? It isn't social media. People's dependency on validation and keeping up with the Joneses existed long before social media and cars.
Which leads me to say that yes, cars make me happy. It's an expression and extension of me and the element of freedom and introspection that I find with driving. I look forward to driving to work, from work, to the grocery store or anywhere else; every single drive I am excited to get behind the wheel. I find stuff to enjoy about it each trip. Unless my back pain is flaring up or it's a gassy day because that's awful to deal with in a car.
Also, this forum is social media. Deleting a facebook or twitter account hasn't removed you from what you're complaining about.
