Why is everyone so giddy about the flooding thay happened at burning man?

Social media seems to be laughing its ass off about this tragedy, is it because the folks at burning man are perceived as frivolous hippies or something? Everyone I’ve ever met who was a regular burning man attendee has been a solid human being with strong morals, personally and financially responsible, a career. Upstanding members of society for sure. I guess all some people know is the sensationalized drugs and sex. A person died. This is a tragedy for an event that brings positivity into the world. Kind of annoyed.

Ever heard of budgeting? Saving? Yeah, that's what people do when they want to take a vacation. Anybody with half a brain can do it. Just takes discipline. Something you clearly don't have.

If you can afford to set aside such a sum you are part of a group that, going by worldwide averages, is among the richest in the world.
