    Women are so funny with their designer clothes and handbags, “I’m just like my favorite singer/actress!” haha, sure you are, lil princess 😀

    Getting their nails done is hilarious, like aww, you gonna go change the way your hand operates so you can have your fun-time 3 inch long plastic shit gatherers? better show them off at the grocery store! 😜

      Spending money on activities and on community is vastly better than spending it on non essential things and I’ll die on this hill.

        You can’t act like there’s a substantial difference between the former and the later. It’s mostly a matter of opinion which things are trivialities and which things are important for happiness and community.

          People that research happiness say that experiences are more important than things and that community is also important for happiness. So there is a difference empirically.

            My point was more that there’s a lot of individual variation in terms of what things count for what category and even whether they’re enjoyable or not. You would have to pay me to go to a screamo concert. Other people would greatly enjoy the experience. Furthermore, at a certain point, you have to diversify the things you do. You can’t spend 100% of your free time strengthening your relationships, sometimes you gotta just buy some candy and eat it.
