You just don’t “get it”. Do you have some kind is social communication disability?
These folks were trying to let you know that they want to be college students…like most college students. The kind that don’t own or drive $70,000 cars. The kind that are sympathetic when a car breaks down instead of having an “I told you so” attitude. The kind who are willing to walk or use public transportation.
The kids who don’t care one bit that you have a $70,000 car.
You are coming across as an entitled brat who just knows it all, and isn’t at all understand of the feelings and desires of others.
Fine…If this group of friends doesn’t share your show off existence, see if you can find a group of friends who do. Surely on your college campus there are tons of other students with similar inflated money values. Find them. Maybe they will be better friends.
