Do you honestly think that standing in a crowd with other people's smell all over you is better than being in your personal space, with music and AC turned to your taste, alone, sitting in a comfortable place that you adjusted for yourself?

You must be the kind of person who thinks bland rice and unseasoned chicken breasts are better than all other foods, just because of how price-efficient they are.
