Feel free to define "average" how you see fit. This isn't about debating what is average person. Comparisons to the averages in your age / friend group are fine too.

  • I monitor my personal finances carefully and try living well below my means
  • I have effectively no social media presence
  • I do childish things when out in the woods by myself such as play with puddles, make streams and larp a soldier with my outfits / gear
  • My wardrobe is a bunch of near identical clothes. I basically wear the same thing every day. When I need a clean shirt I grab the one from the top of the pile.
  • I eat once in the morning and again around 10pm. I also skip dinner a few times a week because I can't be bothered to cook
  • I leave most of my lawn uncut. From the street my house looks abandoned.
  • I carry a folding knife with me always
  • I intentionally avoid trends
  • I don't lie, not even white lies. I might not speak the whole truth but I never say something that's untrue.

How do you know the "average person" doesn't do childish things when out in the wood by themselves?

[–] Thorny_Insight@lemm.ee 4 points 1 month ago

I couldn't know. Nobody knows that I do either
