    This meme took place somewhere the working class cannot afford to live.

    For 95% of us, being outside is far, far worse 95% of the time.

      ???

      Don’t know where you live but in many (maybe even most) places on earth this is completely untrue. So many people across all kinds of different countries spend lots of time socialising outside. I literally just returned from having dinner and sat outside, total cost with drinks was €13.50 for two people. Simple, no nonsense place with plastic table and chairs, affordable also for working class people.

        I have a table outside. But between the insects and the weather, it is unbearable 11 months of the year. So my table is just covered in mildew. I’d love to move back to the California coast where the weather is nice, but I’d have to live in my car. My wife, my 3.5 kids and I wouldn’t fit in my car very well.
