The other day I was checking out the VolkCruiser stats and saw I was getting some hits from a couple of new blogs who had linked to the site…
Being curious, I trundled over to check them out and they seemed like nice sites by very nice and interesting people who were all about getting ready to cruise off into the sunset/sunrise who seem to equate getting ready to cruise with a whole lot of buying stuff. Really, just about every post was about something they’d just bought or something they were about to buy and they both seemed to have a long list of stuff they thought they needed to get.
It was just a little depressing…
Of course, it’s all understandable and the pressure to conform to the consumerist agenda is both ruthless and unrelenting. Come to think about it, there’s not a whole lot of pressure from any direction telling folks to use less and simplify is there?
Just something to think about…
