surprised at how many people itt have brought up working on cars as a reason to move to the suburbs if you're really trying to sell people on it you should probably come at them with something a bit more compelling than "guess what, you can now do this thing most people who can afford it pay somebody else to do because it's a poo poo job"

I also have two new cars that I drive regularly and maintain, because I'm not a giant goon-babby. If I lived in the City, I'd probably need to go stand in line for a permit to own more than one vehicle, and pay some out of state landlord and extra $300 a month to actually have somewhere to park it, wherein it turns into a crash pad for winos and prostitutes edit: would also like to point out, not trying to sell people on anything. If you live in a city now, you should absolutely, positively stay there, forever Pauline Kael fucked around with this message at 18:28 on Mar 16, 2015 |

The town next to mine had a plan to blow up their bridge in case the minorities swarmed out of Chicago during the MLK Riots in '68.

I'm just going to repost this:caberham posted:It's a parody on real estate commercials. But people do live like this, and it's almost the most expensive square footage in the whole wide loving world Suburbia and backyards are just luxuries  Yeah, there's always stuff to do, different restaurants to try, and things to see in the cities. But it's the lack of personal space and privacy which makes everyone go out all the time because our houses are loving small. Man, I miss having a nice backyard and having some BBQ with a yard. Nowadays I need a penthouse with a big balcony to make that happen

Hey goons, how come housing projects are failures in USA? They work in Singapore and Hong KongPauline Kael posted:It's not the penthouse, but you might consider being gay married to Three Olives, he has a very nice condo in one of the worst cities in America 600 square feet condo is already middle class standards for a family of 5. Too big of a luxury so I'm going to feel guilty. He's going to sign a pre-nup so marriage wont work. Tell me which city is the worst city in America.

Yes, the suburbs rule, I would much rather give up the convenience and excitement of living in an urban center to buy a McMansion with a bunch of rooms I don't need stuffed with poo poo that I never use, a yard for "gardening" (aka a carefully manicured lawn) and a garage because nobody can ever find parking in the city amirite. My life will be driving 20mins to the nearest grocery store and maybe trying that new Italian restaurant that opened up the next town over once I can build my finances back up from those roof repairs that we had to make last year. This. Is. Living.

Right, he should be like you and have a filthy cum encrusted work station in a 8x6 room where he spends all day long while waiting for his disability insurance check to come. That's obviously the Right Way.
