      What do you own when you buy tickets from a scalper? Unless used for the specific event, it’s just a piece of paper. And once the specific event is over, it becomes worth less than a piece of paper. The event itself is over within hours.

            Its ok, its not your faulth that your material conditions allowed this meme to go over your head like a jet liner. Thanks for your engagement tho! It really helped explain the context of the meme, if critical thinking waz easy everyone would do it. Lol
