I refuse to pay for any monthly subscriptions

Must be nice to own your house and live off grid, but I can imagine that it's annoying to have to visit the library to use the internet.

Some things, such as water, internet, electricity, and even Email have constant costs. Sometimes subscriptions are dumb, yeah, but I very much like having electricity and stuff without having to generate my own.

VERY big difference between necessary utility bills for life and random subscription shit like Netflix, don't you think? Stop being pedantic.

Yes, I do. I wasn't the one who said I don't have any subscriptions.
