I don't own a car, a TV, or a bike, but I'd hardly call myself minimalist. Maybe for today's society's standards I am.
I guess the thing is that people seem shocked by how I live. No TV is more common now I guess -
I remember jaws hitting the floor in the 90's. I got by without internet in grad school and the first years
here - but often was able to leech off unprotected wireless. The wife really is what forced me to
pay for a connection; and then work.
Ya I'll get a "Good for you!" every once in a while for not owning a tv. Shi
t, I am tempted though considering its $5 more a month for tv. Fvck comast
I do get a lot of shi
t from my friends for not owning a car. Mostly since we're scattered all throughout the state so theyre sick of visiting me and not the other way around.
