Where's the "unsure" button? How the fuck should I know how much waste I generate compared to my neighbours?

I said it was a bit crude to you, but I think it would be on average as to assuming your neighbors put out as much as allowed,

Ah well. I make no apologies for my extravagant lifestyle. (I even said I walk everywhere too, under my own power. Lying bastards.)
Hmm, so that's that. I'm going to see just how many worlds I can make.

Dang, and my parents house is even somewhat eco-friendly (weird sun-tunnels built into the ceiling, so somewhat solar-powered), and I don't eat meat. . .but I guess my car just sucks, that's the main extent of my extravagant living! Sorry, earth, I would love to get a more fuel efficient car if my parents would just let me!!

If I lived in Japan, and lived in a manner in which I would like (more biking, less car rides, being able to shut off breakers when I wanted to, etc), which of what I know to be an absolute dream, I'd be at 1.4 planets.
In my current state I consume a rate that would require 3.4.
If I lived a little more to what I'd like realistically up north in Flagstaff, instead, I'd be at 3.3
In otherwords, Arizona sucks even when you try. 80mpg on a motorbike is already making me want to ditch driving cars even more.
