My first speeding ticket happened during college. I had to take a few weeks driving course, cut luxuries out of my life for a month, and pick up extra shifts at my job for a month to handle it. It was an overall miserable experience.

My next speeding ticket happened while I was an engineer. I literally paid it off on my phone while the officer was doing paperwork on the side of the road AND gave them an extra $100 because I could do that instead of any kind of driving course. I stopped caring about it at all 10 minutes later. It was fucking wild to see "laws are only for the poors" in action like that

I have become more left orientated after years went by, but I have always been decently progressive. Not every country allows for the full political spectrum sadly so a lot of people have to choose between progressive left and conservative right, but it isn't the only way/

same here, and I'm hardly wealthy. true middle class.

board games though? I'm gonna do my best to crush you
