I have two cars, but I actually hate cars.

I chose to have a house in the mountains, but I hate snow.

I work out hard and have abs that I show off, but people who show off their abs annoy me.

I’m a writer and make income doing it in addition to my retirement pension, but writers annoy me and I never tell my friends that I’m a writer.

I also paint and have had my stuff in some galleries, but artists annoy me and I never tell any of my friends that I paint.

I’ve chosen all those things. Not by necessity, but just choice. Can you be a contrarian to your own views or does that definition have to involve opposing someone else’s views just to troll?

    and have abs that I show off, but people who show off their abs annoy me.

    That is like pure hypocrisy.

    Having a house in the mountains but hating snowing isn’t 100% hypocritical. It’s not snowy year round). Having two cars but hating cars isn’t explicitly hypocritical. Sometimes you need a second car (1 eficent sedan vs a truck)

      How so? And when I say “show off” I mean, happy to show off to my gf and and all the time to annoy her in a funny way. I don’t walk around raising my shirt at random times in the store. I should have clarified.
