Social media sucks
Envy has existed far longer than social media, none of these things would go away if social media doesn’t exist. Social media just amplifies it.
Comparison has always been the thief of joy.
Yep, “keeping up with the Jones’s” was a phrase I heard growing up in the 1980s
Also, attachment leads to suffering
Comparison is the thief of joy
Nah that would be Bill, who stole my bottle of Joy when he house sat.
buy it in bulk my dude, just use any ol squeeze bottle. Those bottles of Joy are easy come easy go
Did you really buy these, thisbenzinggring, or should I call you by your real name, Bill?
Especially easy go when Bill’s over
I think this lesson can be valuable but I also feel like it can be flippant to the point of implying everyone’s situation is equally bad or good, which is very dismissive of those in truly bad positions in life.
Judging what a bad position in life is is pretty subjective.
There are some we can probably all agree on as a bad position, but none of those portrayed here fit those.
I too drive with my cellphone in one hand and my gut in the other.
Cars can be parked!? Big if true…
Or LA traffic. Which, now that I think about it, is the same thing.

I ride a motorcycle and can confirm that most drivers use this method.
Then it cuts to the dog using social media looking at skeletons.
sobbing over my phone because I couldn’t stop a friend from pairing full-bodied red wine with lobster
This is like that other comic about ‘girls only like guys who treat them right’ (i dunno the name) but actually good.
Grass is brown all the way around
You know you’re fucked up when seeing things that are happy makes you sad and angry.
Yeah, the last three panels actually bug me (though for different reasons).
This hit me just right today. Good reminder to be grateful for what we have.
One of these is not like the others
Ha yeah everybody is miserable.
Fuck
I find this sad yet soothing song very fitting.
We all lost our hearts
Trying to feel goodLook at that new car!
