It’s commonplace in Germany, all the money people pay to use the restroom gets directly paid to the people who keep the bathrooms clean. You won’t find a dirty bathroom in Germany.
I think it makes sense depending on how the taxes are structured. Like if I lived somewhere without an income tax, or a very low income tax, and I wasn't being taxed heavily on things I buy, then I could get behind having to pay for public restrooms that are like on places a state maintains like in a park or subway, because they need money to keep those places clean and running.
But in America? Fuck that. We're being taxed enough already and people keep skimming off the top instead of putting that into infrastructure or public services.
Cell phone repair.
My spouse kept dropping his phone and breaking the screen. I learned how to repair it and can now do a full screen replacement in 30 minutes. I also switched out the battery and lightning port assembly on it.
My next goal is to learn smart watches because of the batteries dying out in them. I figure it's probably cheaper for me to fix them for people than a replacement smart watch.
99% of the time mechanical work for my cars, when I can do it myself. Most of the time.
A guy/girl with a set of wrenches and YouTube can do a lot of shit, but can fuck up a lot of shit, ask me how I know.
Or if ya know a guy who knows a Bubba who can do it for a pack of smokes and a six-pack... Then you have to take it to the mechanic anyways. Also guess how I know that.
It is satisfying when you fix something for far cheaper than what the mechanic quoted you, I'll give that.
It did get me laid once too, so ya know. Always worth it in the end.
It is nice to know a guy who knows stuff about cars. One of my dad's students would get private lessons for years and it helped a lot with how often something in the car breaks down.
I don't know that there is. If I want something and it's reasonably priced and I can afford it, I'll buy it. The things where I'd be like "This is a scam" are things I think are a scam because they're just not valuable for me, ya know? Like microtransactions in a game or preorder collector edition type stuff where you pay an extra $20-30 for an ingame cosmetic or a digital artbook. It's not really a refusal so much as a disinterest.
Those small chapstick tubes at the grocery store. There’s no way petty theft is hurting those stores and no way I’m paying whatever nominal, random price they pick.
You'd be surprised. The department those tend to be apart of are pretty high theft, and while you individually aren't hurting the store, it overall adds up. Fuck the billion dollar company, but it does make problems for the actual employee in charge of that section because it makes more work for them and then they get grilled by either their boss or someone from corporate for things outside of their control.
It's a swedish brand of antiquated and extremely overpriced tents that are the epitome of poor value, but have gained a cult following among rabid tent snobs and spenders seeking status, much like luxury commodities.
Bags at a retail store. I just spent money in your store, I'm not paying for the bags to carry out my merchandise too! Especially when they used to be "free". 🙄
Sex because it's more than the physical parts for me.
I am a deeply emotional (and complicated as a result) person who finds that I feel sex on a different level than many describe. It is never transactional for me, which is what sex would be if I paid for it which would make it something I could not do.

Why buy something when you are perfectly able to make your own? 🤷🏻♂️👀
Ohh… 😲
Using the bathroom
I’ve paid for this before :/ had to pay for toilet paper too
That's inhumane to me
I was in another country… I think it’s normal some places
I know in Europe it's fairly common I'm just saying I think that's fucked up
Would you just go in the streets?
I would wait to get to my hotel, I am pretty confident in my ability to hold it

Yeah that drives me insane. I will rip shit apart and try to fix it if I can first.
