[quote=flyer][quote=FlyerInHi][quote=scaredyclassic]Cars leave me cold. But photos of expensive watches get me hot.[/quote]
I used to like cars… but now they leave me cold. In fact, I wish that Google driverless cars could already take us everywhere.
I think I’m getting old. I feel cold at most things these days.
My goal now is to build a real estate portfolio of condos in different cities so that I can live anywhere I wish. But even that leaves me cold.[/quote]
It’s true that most “stuff” can eventually leave one “cold,” when the novelty wears off. That’s our human nature, and why every successful company has an ace marketing department to remind us that we need to buy something new in order to transcend this world and feel better. Some of the car ads are extremely amusing on this level.
As far as cars go–I like cars. Some are fun to drive; most have a utilitarian purpose, etc.–but, for me, they don’t feed my soul like family, friends and other things do–nor would I expect them to.[/quote]
