    I love sitting by myself in a steel box waiting for every other steel box to move 2 miles in 1.5 hours traffic congestion my favorite

            I actually in reality live in a really good place for walking and cycling, but I do understand the pain in the ass that is traffic congestion and “just add more lanes, man” mentality.

      Will, better to sit in a steel box by yourself than sit in a steel box with a lot of other people and get sick.

        Sitting in a steel box where someone else drives, you get to spend your time semi useful. Either by doing work, reading a book, watching Netflix or playing games.

          Yes, living in a country with a good network of big steel boxes, I sometimes also use them to get to my destination. A lot of the times they are rather full so I have to stand and stare into the air.

          But mostly I am using my metal bars on two wheels so that I am not protected from nature and reach my destination equally fast, but full of sweat. But safe from people entering my personal space and spitting their illnesses into my face.
