I guess I'm a little spoiled living in the city which supposedly has the best public transit system in all of North America... lol
Even if I didn't though, I still have 2 legs and a heartbeat, and know how to use them

Plenty of people use their cars for trivial meaningless bullshit, and burn gas simply because they "can" and then they adapt to that lifestyle, and end up pawning shit to maintain it. If you can't afford a fucking tank of gas, you probably shouldn't be on the road...
