It is the future: I own nothing, and I've never been happier. They can sue me and take nothing.

I've been trying to convince myself I'd be able to live like Diogenes, sleep in the streets, bathe in the sea and just generally survive off scraps - but I think that only works if other people can afford to throw away scraps.
