        “Take my stuff or I’ll kill you”

        Hey, maybe that’s why the Buddhist monks train in martial arts so hard, so they can force everyone to take their less from them.

        I was about 25 when I came to the realization that the goal for the average person seemed to be to take up as much space on this planet as possible. Get fatter, buy a big SUV, buy a huge house, have lots of kids, whatever you can do to expand your footprint.

          I want to eat the Sun; does this count?

              But I thought the sun was a deadly laser. Is it also a figurative oxymoron??

    You’d like to buy less more, but instead you end up buying more less. Or the other way round.

    Alternatively: Minimalism is a ploy devised by the small industrial complex to profit in excess of less.

    Same for software development. There’s a trend to cut down on “complexity” and options. They call it “minimalist”. I call it lazy ass developers.

    Minimalism is just the opposite of compulsive hoarding. There is a right amount of stuff to own and obsessing about every single thing you have that you could live without can’t be healthy.
