I mean nowadays they got the Colgate whitening strips you can stick on your teeth and mints for fresh breath so the finesse game has evolved with that over the years.

So this is more of a confessional depressional rant.

So yeah I have to admit - seeing peeps like Nii chan and Dried Chan post of their trips to Japan has me a bit depressed at 6 am in the morning.
Nothing against those guys and peeps that vist ofc, its fantastic they go there and enjoy themselves / have fun, etc.

At the same - reminds of the places I aspire to visit still and have not been to yet. So cha has felt like he's been left behind again.

Takes a deep breath -
Tells self, can still visit those places.

Runs from rant -

Oh but you should. All those pretentious trip posts that nobody really wants to see have only one purpose - display of privilege. You envying their trips you perhaps will never be able to take gives them satisfaction and the feeling of superiority. If you're prone to depression you're best recommended to delete all your social media accounts and avoid other media with such show-offs.

Ah fak Herms, make jump out of bed to grab the keyboard. :shakefist

Nah man - I mean its great that people can visit various places they want to and i admire people that are able to fulfill those goals and wishes.

My depression rant was just a self reflection and you realize that you haven't done those things yet whilst the clock ticks ever so forward.

Well, good for you that your society told you that you can fulfill your dreams and become a millionair while starting as a dishwasher. That what keeps most people going, and I'm happy for you that it does make you keep going too. But the reality is often different, and it is somewhat inconsiderate of them to brag about their luscious trips.

I don't think so, not necessarily? While its true that not everyone can enjoy such trips lavish or not.
A trip cam be to your local hotspot as well.

We live in age where peeps post their underwear or birthday suits on the gram / social meida.
So sharing or posting pics amongs frineds or peers is the norm.

Take the staking zimby for example who posted a live video from North Korea with English subs. :cop

I don't think this discussion would have occured if it was about a trip to the local hotspot, or maybe it would have. Anyways, I hope you'll be able to go someday. /cheers

That's a really honest thing of you to say Charles, but life doesn't end in 5 or 10 or 15 years. When you're that old and you happen to visit those places then, it'll still be as great and valuable an experience as it will be if you go tomorrow. It's about how you (want to) spend resources in the end. Keep in mind that comparing yourself to others ultimately has no up sides because quite honestly it's never going to be a fair comparison anyway. Besides any picture you see if a snapshot of reality, not a recording or telling. It's great they visited but unless someone is bm'ing you over it, they're merely sharing an observation. You can enjoy it or leave it alone, but try avoiding become bitter. It just isn't productive (I'm not saying you are, but you know, keep it in mind).

Like Evil said, if it's something that slows you down, just avoid exposure and get off social media. After all those kind of media are ultimately designed to bait people into posting 'their best self'. It's just an illusion being put up. But yeah don't put down anyone for participating, both the desire to post and the occasional bitter taste when seeing those posts are natural.

Take care!
