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.

Replace second speech box with “two, because people who buy our cars are losers”

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.

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.

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.

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

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

A smart car has two seats, a bus has 50

But the car on the second panel is a Ginetta G58 (with a Chevy engine) for LMP3, not road legal ... witch ... ok, it does have two seats, so it checks out, carry on.

The seats:

Nice catch.

That's a straight up racecar, though. Like it's built exclusively for entertainment and fun, not epeen.

I'd respect someone driving a Ginetta G58 around (or, more practically, an Ariel Atom, a homogilation special or something) way more than a chonky, overpriced lambo. That screams "I don't care what you think, I like to drive" instead of "hey everyone, look how rich I am!"

Like this people driving around these monsters. That's beyond flaunting wealth, that's someone's neurotic hobby, and most bystanders aren't going to realize how special they are compared to the Porsche trailing them:

The F1 with a single seat.

When you reach the epitome, with noone to accompany you.


spoilerThis breaks down immediately, because you have multiple others around you, on the same track. They are your colleagues, your friends and your rivals.

And I haven't checked, but I'd say the F1 is more efficient at running than the Lambos

I bet there are a lot of remote drone racing competitions ...

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

This breaks down thousands of hours before an F1 car starts because it takes thousands of people to design them

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure the Lamborghini car also took quite a bit of people-interaction. Road compliance and all, you know?

My life goal is to not work...which is why I'm not spending my money on a status symbol.

TIL: The people on the bus are my friends! Yay!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Commute friends are great. You've got a pleasant conversation for the ride, and another source of information when your ride is canceled.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

The bus on the bus go bus bus bus!

Depending on the route, I'd argue that you should be careful what you wish for. Having said that, I found your response extremely wholesome to a Kenneth Parcell level.

"Oh, hi, new friend! Is that a test tube in your mouth? You must be a scientist!"

"Golly, that sure is a big knife! Thanks for defending all of us bus friends!"

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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Bold of you to assume people like this have had friends.
