Needs to be repeated. Im cool buying store brand clothes from Target and going through the clearance section at shoe stores like JD.

Collecting bullshit like sneakers. I was called to this guy's apartment in the projects and this dude had an entire wall of sneaker boxes. At least 40. Like bro, you could probably move out the ghetto and live in a decent place if you didn't buy this crap lol. Do you even take them out of the box since you got them?

Also countless clothes hoarders I've encountered too

Wouldnt be surprised if people like that grew up poor. Its difficult for them to part with things considering they had nothing growing up.

Ive never understood the point of luxury brand cars. To an extent, I can understand why someone would want a Ferrari or something like that. But the average Lexus or Mercedes? I dont get it.

I know someone at work who got a Porsche SUV. For the life of me, I cannot think of why anyone would get that. A Porsche sports car? Ok, I can understand it. But a Porsche SUV? I dont get it.

gotta disagree about clothing and shoes to a degree. not to say buy expensive brands indiscriminately, but i try to get quality, nice looking, well fitting clothing. people enjoy my fits.

nothing wrong with dressing for comfort and getting lower priced stuff. i have that, too. most days i'm rocking a hanes tee and some shorts or whatever. but if i want to step my game up a bit, i can, and i get complemented for it. it's nice.

I try not to judge because its not like the stuff I buy is somehow more justified.

But we cant help notice right? Id say any gambling unless skill is an element. But then again if it provides entertainment and they can afford it then its no different from anyone else

Probably buying expensive jeans. I get wanting a really nice pair of pants. Oh yeah I will do it even further, buying expensive distressed, muddy looking jeans. What the frick is the point. It's essentially someone doesn't want to do their own work to make their jeans look dirty and pays more for them? I don't get it.

I get the ripped/distressed jeans culture, I still can't get the muddy jeans look.

Pricey/expensive gaming PCs.

Gambling.

Expensive clothes. Especially sneakers.

Playing sports video games.

Going out to bars. Strip clubs. Those host/hostess clubs in japan.

I understand why people do each of these things but to me personally its all things I don't care about.

If you don't, it doesn't matter how cheap.

Expensive phones. I understand paying for more than the base model, but dropping $500 for a phone is stupid.

That's just paying for higher performance, which is never really a bad thing.

I'm not the poster you're responding to, but I hate food delivery apps for these reasons:
- it can cost more than the entire order itself
- you need to tip on top of that already huge cost
- the food exchanges hands with someone who doesn't work at the restaurant and has no real incentive to deliver the food fast and still warm
- countless horror stories about food app transactions

At the place I order Chinese from, the delivery is free with a minimum order amount.
When I order pizza, the delivery fee is like $3. Huge difference between this and food delivery apps.
