    I have never owned much stuff.  I actually HATE accumulating crap.  I own the bare necessities of clothes.  I admit it bugs me greatly to see people waste money on needless possessions.  Cars are a big one.  Kanye West ugly ass shoes?  idiots.

    Classic Carlin!

    I saw this great book one time that had photographs of families from various countries and all the stuff they owned.  Guess which country had the family with the most crap?  I wish I had those photos.  Quite revealing!
