I don't think people are "refusing"

I know a few people who have no reason NOT to learn to drive, but just don't and instead mooch off everyone else.

My folks had a falling out with a couple they'd been friends with for ages because they refused to get their licence... But then expected them to come and pick them up from the train station when they were invited to dinner, spent most of the night telling everyone how smart they are for not having a car, and then expecting a lift back to the train station. Having just spent a couple of hours banging on about how much financially better off they were, I saw it as essentially stealing to then demand someone else use their asset and running costs to carry them around for free.

My sister in law finally got her licence at 30-something after a couple of decades constantly harassing family members for a ride.

Lamington Day

Cause Lemmyington.

This probably works better with a New Zealand accent... which I don't have, but like to imitate when I'm drunk.

"Choice bro, put your jandals in the chilly bin" - me, doing champagne comedy sketches

How do you use Xitter for porn??

"Hopefully I'll do better next time"

And all of that would still be true without the "woe is me" addendum to your post.

Downvotes to an honest question. I should take a break from internet.

Complaining about internet numbers? That's a downvote.

A cargo ship is probably more energy efficient than an American pickup lol

Sucked in, frankly.

How is disabling (or deleting) an account going to help?

I found it easy to stop participating on Reddit. Every time I went to post I was reminded that all I'm doing is adding value to some piece of shit shareholder who actively wants me gone because I don't mindlessly scroll the front page (old.reddit and adblock). Why do anything on there when it's just to make someone else rich?

And Reddit made it easy for me to not even look when I'm on mobile by killing third party apps. If I can't RiF then I choose no Reddit at all.

I get wanting to delete old accounts

They didn't ask that (which, btw, is under settings -> delete account), they asked to disable it.

At the risk of sounding like a Facebook group, this isn't an airport... you don't need to announce departure. Just leave. Voila. Done.
