I hate everything about the idea of paying a subscription for a....{checks notes}...car. It's already bad enough when people are paying monthly for car payment or lease payment, now they get hit with a subscription for software?

I hate this timeline.

just passing by, just wanted to say i liked your content a lot.

your username, 'Charles Darwin'.
the 'checks notes', bc you feel like a tired medician raising a brow when reading the umpteenth diagnosis report of 'stupidity' in this world.
the 'i hate this timeline', bc our actions made us end in one of the world's bad ends.

so please, take my upvote and my upcomment, and have a nice day.
