I’m 28 and terrified of the prospect of driving. Certain of my family members won’t stop demeaning me for it, but having read this wonderful article, I feel like I can stop demeaning myself
What a silly, solipsistic article. Driving is against the natural order of things but collecting records and guitars isn't? Vinyl and nylon (or steel) don't grow on trees, you know. And for god's sake, stop citing "studies" unless you understand statistics. A study simply says—and all it can say—is the result was not a fluke with X% probability, usually 95% (p < 0.05). That's still an enormous margin of uncertainty, no one would buy a cup of coffee if there was a 5% chance it was laced with cyanide.

Thank you for this, Chris
