      Can’t sing along at the top of my lungs though, which is the only place I can because the walls of my apartment are too thin.

      Driving to and from places is way more relaxing than being on transit imo. Transit has always been significantly more stressful for me and never lines up with when I need to use it.

        For me it’s the other way around. Public transit is more relaxing since I can just sit down and relax and don’t have to deal with all these idiots that drive like they have to arrive at their destination half an hour ago.

        People like you admitting driving is relaxing is why I find car-centric places stressful. You are driving a 2 ton heavy machinery. You should be stressed and alert.

          Stressed means you make more mistakes. Calm and collected, as well as relaxed is the better way to drive. You’re less likely to make mistakes or poor decisions when relaxed.

          Stressed drivers are dangerous and unpredictable.

          Ok I’ll catch two buses and a train. Or three buses. I’ll only have to wake up at 5am everyday and go to bed at 9pm after returning home at 8:30. Totally viable.

              Ride a bike for a 38 mile round trip every single day to another city and back when there is no bike lane connecting said cities?

              Bikes just aren’t viable for anybody who sweats like a bitch.

                My workplace provides showers and lockers for staff who sweat on their way to work.

                I can leave my smelly cycling gear in my locker and change into the work clothes I carried in, and wear the shoes I leave at work in the locker
