I don't understand the attractionSmaug says: Ricky Gervais. Lesbian pr0n. Going into a crowded bar, purely because it's crowded. All these things seem to be popular with everybody else, but I just can't work out why. What leaves you cold just as much as it turns everyone else on?

Amen(short version:) All the pointless replication of human effort that money causes is one thing, but also alarming to me is the resultant vast waste of finite and non-renewable resources, e.g:
- Plastic promotional crap really annoys me, because each piece of tat represents a little more oil wasted. I'd rather our species produced fewer branded "stress balls" and suchlike now, and instead found it a little easier to produce medicines in 30 years time.
- Electronics that break or become obsolete after a few years really annoys me; they could have been built better and lasted longer, but now they're just a little more rare metals which can't be fully recovered by current technology, even if the will were there.
