    Have your child become a dentist

    wow, it sounds so easy! I'm sure all the other people can do this and compete for the same "big home on lots of land"

    oh, you're just advocating for all-against-all and will completely ignore the people who starve to death trying? oh, okay

            I always found it weird when Americans who live in a sparsely populated grid drive around for fun because it's the least fun drive you can imagine. Then I realized it's because you can't just hang out without paying an entrance fee somewhere lol.

            I don't think "touch grass" is that literal, is it? I'd been using it to mean like, log off and go interact with real people or read a book or go for a walk or something. Not like, a literal request to go outside and put your body in physical contact with a graminoid plant, but excluding sedges and rushes.

                I mean, yeah, not everyone can literally walk away, but I think ultimately the sentiment can basically be boiled down to "take a break and do something else for a while." I don't know that there's anyone for whom it's genuinely impossible to stop arguing online, and that they're genuinely unable to spend even a few minutes doing something other than posting.
