I think it's important that everyone faces a little bit of friction every day, which is why everyone should take public transport (hexbear.net)

Not like a lot, but I've seen what a lot of westerners complain about and I think its important that each of you have one mildly annoying experience with a fellow human being a day to build up your tolerance.

Also all the other stuff that's good about public transport I guess.

Yep. We are forest apes reduced to slightly moving our hands and feet while staring at empty space and unnatural angles for hours each day. You take away exploration and dynamic play from a lab primate, they shut down and stop having their species-being. Take that away from our species and we become suburbanite salarymen regardless of which rectangle we're sitting in.
