Disagree. I don’t like when people just say “everyone who says x is just cheap”. There’s a huge chunk of people out there getting Starbucks. But there’s also an insane amount of people just cutting costs at every opportunity. Of course not all of them need to buy all the cheap products to survive, but for some of them it is, and for a lot more they can choose between more premium products and being able travel once a year.
Sure, Fiji water might not be luxurious, but there’s genuine reasons why lots of people effectively can’t afford to buy more premium products,and Fiji water might just be one of them.



That is true, however this is not about the acting, it’s about hypocrisy in the traditional sense. OC is essentially saying “we have the same goal and I set an easier plan and I’m currently following it, while you are criticizing my plan, making up a way harder one, saying I should follow that one while not following either mine or your plan at all.”
It’s like when you are working in a supermarket, restocking the shelves and your coworker is just sitting on a chair watching you, and after a while he says “this is useless, you should rather do some cashier work, people are waiting” while eating candy.
Yeah sure he might be technically right, but this is extremely out of line.
