    Well it rubs many people the wrong way when they start the article by saying “one of the best ways to improve your life: Ditch your car.” as if that’s some kind of general life advice that applies to everyone. I literally could not do my job without a car. Maybe if I lived in a city and worked in office, then yeah, but I don’t.

      Well it rubs many people the wrong way when people who are clearly not the addressee of an article walk into a room stating things like, “one is a hobby and one is a form of transportation” as if that’s some kind of general life advice that applies to everyone.

      Maybe if you lived in a city and worked in office

      It might come as a surprise to you, but that’s the vast majority of people.

      Here is some general life advice: you are not the center of the universe, nobody is coming for your car, stop feeling addressed by things that clearly aren’t about you, stop wasting other people’s time with “well that wouldn’t work for me”.
