yeah, I'm also impinging that gas prices aren't 5 bucks a gallon right now. it's totally a figment of my imagination!
if i just think different, they were magically be 3 bucks again.
I think this guy drives a truck he struggles to afford...
i drive a hatchback that gets 40mpg. the women i meet want me to drive a gas guzzling truck, because it's 'masculine'.
the point you don't understand is you can't create reality around you by thinking happy thoughts.
reality exists whether you acknowledge it or not. buying a different car won't change the basic economic facts of reality that govern the cost of things. i can choose not to ever eat out, but the prices of restaurants will not change because i eat there or not, they will continue to rise and many people will be happy and eager to pay them.
