If I say I come from a family of cyclists who never owned a car. That I have never wanted to be burdened by car ownership, or even take driving lessons [apart from when I had to as conditions of employment for 2 jobs which both folded before I needed apply for a driving test] ..well 'normal' folks just tend to regard me as a suspiciously pitiful crackpot... Now supposing I kinda feel a similar vibe when I hear otherwise intelligent folks boasting all sanctimoniously about TV ownership.... 😜
