A lot of people I've seen in Lamborghini cars aren't serious about their lives. They're spoiled idiots who lucked out and got a ton of money handed to them and are driving it around to show off how much money they have as if they deserved it.

Notice the implied and unquestioned assumption that “life goals” means accumulating resources and not building relationships or contributing to society. In fact, it’s expected that personal relationships and societal responsibilities shall be neglected in the quest for resources.

If this wasn't 2025 I would have thought this image was satire it's so overtly toxic and stupid.

Yet here we are.

Your life can be so much better if you get over the notion of having to own things. Almost every luxury out there can be enjoyed without having to own it, as long as you're able to discard the consumerist propaganda that you've not enjoyed it properly unless you can take it home.

You mean just take the bus?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nooooo, I wanted to ride the bus but someone took it!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's OK my friend, just catch the next one. You can probably make it to the next bus stop even, that's what I like to do.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago (7 children)

Okay, I caught it. Now what?

People who are serious about life value long term benefit over short term material goods. Public transportation is a public good for all and in the long term will save you a ton of money.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

But how else can you show off how much money you have and how insecure you are?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Buy a massive long gun to compensate

I fucking hate people that act like they escaped the matrix because they drive a personally owned vehicle.

Like wow you're really showing us public transit welfare queens what true independence looks like, gripping a steering wheel in a vehicle they can only legally operate with a government-issued license, on a road built and maintained by the government, cleared of snow by government workers driving government-owned trucks, fueled by government-subsidized oil, and parked in government-funded lots. Let’s not forget they had to go to a government building, talk to a government employee, and pay a government fee just for the privilege of registering their car — which they’re also legally required by the government to insure. And after all that bureaucratic red tape and recurring fees, they have the audacity to act like they're the icons of self-sufficiency. The cherry on top? If their precious symbol of ‘independence’ breaks down, the government isn’t going to help — they get to shoulder the repair costs entirely on their own.

Meanwhile, I swipe a card once a month and get access to a system that moves people efficiently, doesn’t ask for my blood type, and doesn’t require me to pour thousands into maintenance and paperwork — and I’m the one supposedly suckling at the teat of Big Government?

Ok.

As someone who owns a vehicle, I feel more like I've escaped the matrix when on public transportation than when I'm driving. I still have to have a car to get places public transit won't go, but I always look forward to the completion of each new station, one more area I don't have to drive to.

I'd have so many friends if I had a Lamborghini bus 🤔

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago (8 children)

I wonder which one is more expensive, a new Lamborghini or a new bus.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago

Depends on the size of the bus - anywhere from high 90s to half a million for a school bus.

You will lose my friendship when you waste a bunch of money on a lambo.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Get a Toyota and use the savings to take all your friends on vacation

If you need a meme to feel good about your decisions, then maybe make better decisions.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (11 children)

If I had that kind of money, I'd buy ruined, exploited land just to restore it; regrow a clearcut forest for instance. Then just give it back to the native tribe who lived there centuries ago. I have always wished I could do that.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Nice, this is exactly why a forest has no car seats. Go achieve your life goals

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Wait, does that mean his actions will make him zero friends? Not even the tribe!? That kinda sucks.

It's a great meme, but I do cringe a little bit at the idea of engineers designing the car while already having built most of it.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

That's agile for you.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Those engineers just got serious about their lifes. You can crank out way more products if you skip designing them, it is the engineer hustle 🔧😎

And if they didn't decide yet, they could always just bolt more seats to the roof.

I dunno, the bus I drive costs more than double what that car costs.

I'm pretty sure nobody driving that midlife crisis on wheels has ever gotten "serious" about their lifes

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Why is no one asking about the bus with no wheels?!

Engineering decisions: how can make something that pollutes to the legal max both in particles, noise, and, come to think of it, any aspect possible? Oh, I know, a car!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you're choosing life-goals that shut out your friends, those are the wrong life-goals.

Commas, man. They're important to not abuse. You made my brain hiccup
