My dad always told me that when a company switches to single ply toilet paper, it’s time to gtfo bc the writing is on the wall. Company’s going under.

You sure about that? https://i.imgur.com/2eIaXFJ.jpg

Reminds me of this 1960’s cartoon where the Martians look at earth and mistakenly (or not) believe that the automobile is the dominant life form and humans are its parasites. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyQ3SEb9GTA

What you didn’t know is that the universe is mostly ducks. Dark matter? More like duck matter!

Oh yeah, and giving each person their own ringtone

One thing I either missed or wasn’t stated is the daily cost of ownership. If you purchased on a loan, you have a monthly fee, which can be a daily fee. Then you have insurance and maintenance, but no one knows how much maintenance is, so we typically underestimate it. And even if your vehicle is paid off, you still have that flat cost, which you could compute to a daily rate for the current lifetime of ownership.

For example, I had a car in the US that I paid $25k for after taxes and bogus upsells that I didn’t need. Then I had insurance, which was expensive where I lived. My monthly cost just to own it was ~$600/month for the note and insurance, not even including gas.

So, your trip calculation then becomes the daily rate / # of trips, then you add on the other fees, so for a two leg trip, each leg would cost me $20 for that day plus maintenance, gas, parking.

And that doesn’t account for how much parking raises costs elsewhere, as noted in the book, The High Cost of Free Parking by Donald Shoup: https://www.amazon.com/High-Cost-Free-Parking-Updated/dp/193236496X
