I feel the need to include the obligatory 'and yet you subscribe to TF?' comment here.

No one thinks those are necessities.

I have a TV, but I just use it as a monitor. No cable or anything like that. When I have cable TV I just vegetate and get angry at commercials. Why pay for that? I don't have a car, but I do have a motorcycle.

I don't have cable TV, which occasionally sucks because somebody will mention some important news event and I'll have no idea what they're talking about.

For a long time when I lived in Kodiak, I didn't have a cell phone (they didn't have a tower). I could go out into the wilderness and be well and truly alone.

I'm cool using a 22" flatscreen plugged into my computer to watch TV.

It's as if you're made to feel a failure if you don't get the largest screen possible. It's creepy.

Water.
If God intended us to drink water then why did he have his son turn it into booze?

I could live without clothing in a nudist colony. But only if it was warm.

Goimir [TotalFark] 2008-12-13 09:11:04 PM  
I lived without running water for a time. I live without electricity for 2 weeks a year when I go camping.

I lived without a car for 2 weeks once. I haven't had a microwave in over 10 years.

I do use the one at work though.

I may be the only person on the continent who doesn't have a cellphone. Shockingly, I somehow manage to survive.

I haven't used a computer in like two years.

$300 pair of socks, electric dog polisher, fur sink, gasoline-powered turtleneck sweater...

/no mobile phone, either. I hate those things

I'm so green and hip that I don't have bunch of things the consuming conformist masses use and like.

Also, my farts smell like candy.

I lived through a NYC winter with no heat in my bedroom. It sucked, but I lived through it.

I don't have a microwave either, but I have more than one car to make up for it.

so you wash your clothes with one of those old tubs with a washboard and rolling pins to squeeze out the water?

 
Kome [TotalFark] 2008-12-13 09:12:40 PM  
People can live under bridges and in ally-ways. People can live in abject poverty with nothing in the slums of third world countries.

I can live without damn near every material possession I own, except meager bits of food and drink. But I like the quality of life I have. So this stuff - all these luxuries like a shower, a toothbrush, shoes, a bottle opener, a lighter, a car - stays where it is.

 
platkat [TotalFark] 2008-12-13 09:12:48 PM  
I don't have any of those things either. In fact, I'm so hardcore minimal, I don't even have a place to live right now.

/It's true.

 
Meet Us at the Stick [TotalFark] 2008-12-13 09:12:54 PM  
Lived without a car for 5 years.

It's nice living in a big city with decent public transportation.

Almost have no cellphone. Used to have two, now it's some basic model on a pay as you go plan. Phone stays in the car.
