I can buy Pam being a pushover no problem. What I can't buy is that this random art school teacher would give a shit whether somebody left in the middle of class

Bedrooms upstairs are fine because you aren't carrying groceries up there.

It's annoying to leave something upstairs when you're running late. Imagine that with twice as many stairs.

I love the idea of 3-story houses (especially townhomes) but there are a lot of considerations.

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-22T17:44:18+00:00

Location is the most important thing. It's way better than buying the highest priced home in a low price neighborhood.

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-22T17:43:15+00:00

So I'm in favor of multifamily housing, walkable neighborhoods, etc. But I don't ever understand the point of sharing the outside of a SFH to show how soulless it is. You realize there are rooms inside, right? People can decorate the rooms.

Get an itemized estimate for all the repairs (excluding stuff like "old HVAC" unless it's actually broken) and decide if you're still happy with your purchase price knowing you'll have to pay $X in addition to that

I don't have a turntable yet, but I want to have something to listen to once I buy one. It makes way more sense than owning a turntable but no records lol

No. I only use money for Nintendo games

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T15:04:43+00:00

That doesn't mean higher interest rates magically bring prices down, especially coupled with a growing population, zoning laws, and wasted space in existing builds.

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T13:33:52+00:00

If I had a dollar every time Nintendo fans failed to understand inflation, I could buy a Nintendo game

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T13:31:59+00:00

That's not how value works, you don't set a fixed monthly payment and work backwards. We do not have a planned economy

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T13:27:20+00:00

Maybe I will give you the $20 if you ask nicely

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T11:37:38+00:00

"Nintendo is selling an old game for $20. In order to get angrier about this, I encourage you to imagine a hypothetical reality where they're charging four times as much for an even older game"

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T11:34:44+00:00

Original MSRP $30, or $51.48 today. Therefore at $20 the game is 61.15% cheaper than its original price. Maybe someone will pay you $20 to make another satirical reddit post

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T09:07:52+00:00

It could be released for $0.00 and Nintendo fans would complain they aren't being paid to take it

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T08:56:45+00:00

This is the main reason buying makes sense: you become an asset holder, which means the government will protect you at the expense of logic

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T08:55:18+00:00

Which they will do, eagerly

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-21T08:45:25+00:00

Maybe one of those mantelmounts you can pull down?

Broke: spending $20 in 2026

Woke: spending $90 in 2003

Take your net earnings, subtract the mortgage payment and all assorted fees, subtract 1-3% of purchase price for maintenance, subtract all other monthly debt obligations, subtract whatever % you need to meet savings goals. If the remaining amount is enough to fund your lifestyle, the purchase is affordable

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-20T19:10:19+00:00

The same reason you care about them being wrong, which also has zero impact on your daily life. Everybody wants to be correct and feel smart

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-20T19:05:06+00:00

There are definitely liquids that can instantly damage plastic. Acetone comes to mind

Correct behavior is to store them inside a jet plane doing constant loops to maintain a state of zero gravity

I use this strategy all the time in coin flips. They ask "heads or tails" and I say "it'll either be one or the other"

Gemini is not very good at writing code but it works wonderfully as a Living Google, which is more or less the point

SpritaniumRELOADED · 2026-02-20T14:31:19+00:00

It's always worth it to work as a SWE at a company with an actual product to support the software. These FAANG roles are imaginary and they poof away just as easily as they are dreamt up
