I agree. It's like he's going down the list of boxes an urban millennial hipster is supposed to check.
Once drove an old Toyota... check
Plastered said Toyota in the kind of bumper stickers you usually have to be a Prius driving tenured professor to amass... check
Ethically sourced pet... check
Uses said dog to woo women on tinder... check
Girlfriend makes demands and he caves to them... check
Doubles down by marrying her... check
Had the author gone on to discuss his preferred micro-brews, farmers markets and the best way to die your hair blue I would have assumed this was a satirical piece.
I have no problems with the people who do all these things. I check a few of these boxes myself. I take issue with the people who broadcast it like it's something virtuous.
