Sorry, but I find that really hard to relate. How would that make any difference, practically? At the end of a day, a bed is always welcoming to me - I mean, I don't need an excuse to hit the bed lol, in fact, I need an excuse to get out of bed. On some lazy weekends I may not even bother getting out of bed lol.

Also

6. Don't bother making your bed. I don't know why my parents ever ingrained this habit in me, but one day I was like... why am I even doing this? and so I stopped. Of course, I still change my sheets and pillow cases regularly, but I don't see a reason for making my bed every day.

There’s no such thing as odd socks. They’re called mix ‘n’ match socks now. Like Mashems!

Or just get black socks and don't worry about mixing and matching.

I agree with what @carl_dungeon wrote. If you're really that paranoid about your privacy then you shouldn't even use a cellphone in the first place - never mind a smartphone. Look at Richard M Stallman for example - he avoids cellphones completely for this reason.

And that's because there's no fully-open cellphone out there, and even if there is, it doesn't prevent your carrier or government from snooping on you, as long as you're using GSM communications (which is btw very vulnerable). The moment you've decided to carry a cellphone around with you, you've signed away any expectations of privacy.

So you either live the Stallman way and avoid cellphones and other modern conveniences, or just say fuck it and use them like everyone else. Otherwise, you're just a hippocrite, fooling yourself into a false sense of security, because prying open a modern smartphone and checking it's internals is a completely pointless exercise.

My interaction with my neighbors is just to the extent of saying "hi" when we bump into each other and that's it. They have a friendly dog and I love dogs, so I did offer them that I could dog sit for them if they ever needed it, but they never took up the offer. I've spoken way more to their dog than I ever did to them.

Oh well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I believe the era of "love thy neighbour as thyself" is long gone. Back in the day there were many reasons to interact with your neighbors, such as for keeping up with the local news and gossip, borrowing rations when you've run out of stuff, or keeping an eye out on your place when you're away etc. But these days, in the era of the Internet, home deliveries and security cameras, there's very little need to interact with your neighbors. Which is a bit sad, but I guess that's the way the world works now.

Same here! Well, it's probably even rarer than unicorns for me - I'm looking for someone who's also a vegan and childfree.
