Agreed. No shiny new car, no hot crazy girlfriend. How can one see going on with life?

“No shiny new car, no hot crazy girlfriend.”

Lol, And that is the mind set. “My car is dirty and has a scratch, guess I need to buy a new shiny one”.

And a car is like “arm candy” to some. Both just shiny status toys.

The Priority is all about status symbol toys and aesthetics over practicality and function. Humans are like crows, they waste a whole lot of time and effort collecting shiny things to dress up their nests...
