They sell it to have less less themselves and achieve minimalism first.

when you're a buddhist but suffer from crippling competitiveness

"Take my stuff or I'll kill you"

Hey, maybe that's why the Buddhist monks train in martial arts so hard, so they can force everyone to take their less from them.

I prefer big large. They sell more huge

I was about 25 when I came to the realization that the goal for the average person seemed to be to take up as much space on this planet as possible. Get fatter, buy a big SUV, buy a huge house, have lots of kids, whatever you can do to expand your footprint.

I want to eat the Sun; does this count?

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

You'd be dense and bright simultaneously. The sun is a figurative oxymoron.

[-] Kase@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

But I thought the sun was a deadly laser. Is it also a figurative oxymoron??

I like less more and less less personally.

Biggie smalls, how could you?

[-] paysrenttobirds@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago

You'd like to buy less more, but instead you end up buying more less. Or the other way round.

[-] Potatisen@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Disgusting!

Alternatively: Minimalism is a ploy devised by the small industrial complex to profit in excess of less.

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

That's what OP is trying to say...We need to get rid of Big less!

Other times it can captivate you

[-] Justas@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

Minimalism is just the opposite of compulsive hoarding. There is a right amount of stuff to own and obsessing about every single thing you have that you could live without can't be healthy.

[-] doppelgangmember@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Less is more makes so much sense now...

[-] Zoidberg@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

Same for software development. There's a trend to cut down on "complexity" and options. They call it "minimalist". I call it lazy ass developers.
