Living alone, in solitude, doing whatever the hell you want.

RELATED:

Open minded, loving, supportive, understanding, & caring parents.

Being able to publicly call the leader of their country an idiot, with no consequences from the government.

Bored Pandagot in touch with the netizen who posted the question and they were kind enough to share some more of their thoughts with us. Naturally, we wanted to know if there was a story behind their curiosity on this topic.“I’ve always been very interested in theextremesand superlatives, but there’s often a disconnect between what people believe to be the most, theleast, the worst and what is actually true. Thought it would be enlightening to know what misconceptions there might be and at the same time educate people on the facts.”

Healthy since birth…

Knowing where your next meal is coming from.Getting out of bed in the morning and having a comfortable place to pee.

Autopay for bills and utilities. If you don’t need to check your account to pay a bill, that’s living a good life for me.

The thread had quite a few responses, so we wanted to know why they thought it ended up being so popular. “Good questions need to be ones that people are excited to both read and answer. This meant that a lot of people would initially post because they havestrong feelingsabout something and then it snowballed into something big,” they shared.

Air travel. People b***h and complain about everything: the seats are too small, it costs too much, food sucks, the flight was delayed. But it’s pretty amazing to pay a few hundred dollars and arrive on the other side of the country (or globe) the same day.

Living in a home that’s secure from the elements, safe from crime and in a good neighborhood. Not available for alot of people.

Having free time for hobbies, travel, and enjoy leisure activities. Many people in poverty or working multiple jobs don’t have time or money.

Lastly, we wanted to know if they had any favorites from the thread or personal examples. “Definitely none that are as good as the ones in the thread but I think people overestimate the probability of gaining popularity or success doing the same things as other people. The balance of novelty and establishment is a hard one to reach. Novel enough that it is not so saturated but established enough that there is a likelihood of success.”

Laundry machines!

Tattoos. I’m a tattoo artist. Don’t argue with me about the price being too high or how you “need” a tattoo. They’re a luxury that you save for, you absolutely don’t “need” it and should never prioritise them over bills, food, etc.

A good quality bed.

Having a healthy brain (no mental health issues).

Buying things in bulk. Not everyone can shell out that much money at once, even if it saves money in the long run. Also, not everyone has the space to store it.

Being able to get your kids braces, glasses, and whatever other health related things they need.Shopping for food and new basic clothes without having to worry about not having money left.

Having a regular 9-5, not having to work evenings or weekend.

Experiencing silence.

8-10 hours of sleep!

It may seem minor, but having a variety of shops, restaurants, and activities in your town. A lot of people(in the US, at least) only have a Walmart, McDonalds and a disheveled bowling alley in their town.

Having a closet full of clothes and shoes for different occasions/seasons. Many people have only a few outfits and struggle to stay warm or dry.

Menstruation products.

Being able to vote. it’s a huge privilege.

Having access to information on pretty much anything, anytime we want. The internet is such a wonderful thing and so many people use it for basic stuff like porn or answering Reddit questions.

Having a car/driving. I used to have to walk everywhere before I got a car. an even in my small town everything is miles apart. no sidewalks. not pedestrian friendly. it sucked. driving is a luxury I will always appreciate.

Private back yard, dishwasher, own laundry machines, money for daily treats

Having total control of where and how you live.

Living past age 30 with no tooth problems.

High-Speed Internet. Many areas in the world still struggle with slow or no internet connectivity.

Being able to contemplate deeper topics and explore concepts. I’ve been in situations where I’m just thinking about survival and getting through another day. Never in there could I sit and think about anything else.

Ice. Americans in particular seem to think it just magically appears, but it requires both clean water and electricity to make.

Garage. It feels like a luxury to have a garage cleared out enough to park cars in. No scraping ice & snow in the winter or having your car turn into an oven in the summer. And adds a layer of protection from car thieves.

Having toilet paper that doesn’t feel like sandpaper on your delicate bits.

Minimalism. The idea that you don’t keep a lot of things around because if you end up needing it in the future you could buy it new. It’s the opposite of hoarding in the sense that you may not need something right now but you might some day.

In the US, a neighborhood that is both walkable and safe.

You can order literally anything online and it will arrive next day.

Bidets, I used to live in the phillipines then moved to the US, and oh do I miss bidets

Owning and regularly upgrading to the latest phones, computers, and other gadgets is a big luxury. Many people around the world have limited or no access to this.

Apparently electric toothbrushes. The refill heads are now $40…
