find an excuse to avoid graduation parties, marriage or any event that requires wearing a fancy suit (that we don't have and won't buy).

I love that. I hate being forced to buy things for events or even stupid Christmas presents when I don't believe in Christmas.

And I get the ANTI NOISE sentiment. It's not being anti social it's just not wanting to participate in all the bullshit that isn't REAL.

Loved your answers @mrprofessor.
