They're choosing not to drive for the same reason they're choosing to be more thrifty, choosing not to go to college, choosing to live with their parents longer, and choosing not to buy homes. See if you can find the common denominator.
Ah yes, I see the problem. They don't know where their bootstraps are!
They need another lesson in pulling themselves up!
Oh, they got the Velcros!
idk, I have a car and a job that pays well enough that I don't feel right for gas money and such, but I'll still walk/public transit/bike when it's not terribly inconvenient and I feel like a lot of my same generation coworkers feel the same way.
sure money might be part of it for some, but definitely not the driving force in my circles
It's all a choice it seems. Damn these newer generations and their freedom of choosing the things that the older generations deemed great and easy to attain, the mindset of lazyness has encroached on the mind of the young ones through this TikTok and other electronic devices, poisoning their free will and corrupting their mind. Nobody thinks for themselves anymore these days.
you need to practice your sarcasm
He forgot /s
Ah yes, that's the problem.
Wasn't it ironic ?
Don't ya think?
A little too ironic
And yeah, I really do think... It's like rea eee ain in your wedding day!
Ironic texts are only for the brain washed zoomers.
Of course, what other problem could it be? If only they choose to make other choices... I can't stop shaking my head in disappointment
