because you don’t use that for more than single digits or teens
it’s used to slow you down with using monosyllable digits. once you go above twenty, you drop it becaues the digits start becoming 3 or 4 syllables.
i never heard it being used beyond the count of ten. like, you use it as a kid when counting, but i don’t see why an adult would ever do it. i know how long a second is.
I want to have kids, but nobody I meet ever does. All they want to do is make tons of money and spend it on traveling and buying luxury goods. Ironically, they are in total denial of this, and tell you that they value ‘experiences’, but what they really value is shallow materialistic pursuits and petty social competitions. They think the idea of having a family and living modestly and having non-shallow relationships is terrifying.
It is depressing as fuck. And the people I meet who are into this lifestyle, are always deeply depressed and anxious and miserable, because they are chasing drugs instead of a mentally healthy lifestyle.
and if i tell them why my lifestyle is more modest and how happy it makes me, they tell me to f myself and I’m a pathetic loser because I’m not posting selfies on IG and making other people jealous of my ‘success’.
I also notice my friend who had kids are just… way more happy and relaxed and enjoy life a lot more than the people I know who didn’t have them.
