and the ever-popular snide reply: "you have too much free time on your hands"


"You have too much time undevoted to the advancement of capitalism on your hands" just doesn't roll off the tongue as well, I suppose.


There's also the counter-perspective of "wow, you must be rich" which is something I feel (but don't say) when someone has enough free time to build anything frivolous. I work full-time and freelance on the side because I have no financial support system and it's terrifying. I've burnt myself out a couple times and the only reason I kept going was the inevitability of financial ruin.
