Wrong. I live in a town house. No yard.

I don’t care about the SUV’s specifically but yes these types of people are why I don’t really have good friends. I can’t relate to them at all - we are friendly acquaintances and that’s it.

I feel the same about the ski trips out west, home remodels, country clubs, private schools, etc. It’s just never ending for many of these families and I feel like an alien visiting a foreign land I don’t understand. And I’ve been here 15 years.

Why not use less energy and pollute less?

So move back to your apartment if you care so much. But nope you move to your McMansion in McLean and then get angry at soccer moms who are living their life. Like what even is your post.

I can guarantee that the big SUV moms don't want to be friends with the prius moms. Just totally different outlooks on life.
What does an SUV have to do with the earthquake?

hahahahahahahahaha!

It’s far from proven that climate change causes more earthquakes.

Just lead by example. Do your thing in your reasonable less energy sucking car and home and life and maybe people will see it is absolutely possible to do all the same things with the same outcome while not having a constant IV drip of expensive polluting energy.

No loss to them.

Enjoy your Prius

Okay then don’t be.

Ok. We dislike you, too.

We recently moved to the suburbs, and they are everywhere. Some of the kids are in travel lacrosse and soccer and they are in FIRST grade. They all have the same exact huge white SUV. It was hilarious the other day because a few of them ran into each other at the grocery store and were talking obnoxiously about their vacations while standing in line at Aldi. Anyway, once I got to the parking lot, they were all talking and loading their groceries. They all have the exact type of car a HUGE white SUV. My first car in high school was a Prius. Dh wants an SUV but I am adamant about having a sedan. We have two kids, and it's fine. Do these people not care about global warming? We had an earthquake a week ago, killing thousands of people. Driving these huge cars is such a waste and global warming contributes to more earthquakes. I went from living in an apartment to this. It's such a big change.
