Aww, I love Dwell, but it's like porn... unrealistic. All of those smooth, shiny, white surfaces do not mix well with little kids- unless you have a full-time cleaning person. And anyway, who has time for toddlers when you're busy trying on kelly green skinny trousers and perfecting your fauxhawk?

Please tell me this shit ain't real.

Nuthin' here; I think you have to be crazy-envious of the homeowners before the humor kicks in. Interesting houses, but I woudn't want to own them.

Nice places, but I wouldn't wanna dust 'em. Or pay their taxes.

And speaking of unhappy hipsters...

As our nightmare rolls onward, this is going to happen over and over and over again.

(OTOH, anyone who's old enough to go to college but still chants "Education should be free!" kinda deserves to be pepper-sprayed.)

(Gratuitous crankyness! Sorry, it can't be helped. I kind of mean it. This is what happens to you when you try to take other people's money from them so self-righteously. Yes; educations cost money because they are valuable. It's not a paradox. Like gravity, it's not an inconvenience that will go away because you want it to.)

But Crid, if I want, nay, neeeeed something, it should obviously be free for me.

Thanks for the funny site link Amy.

I love, love you for those three extra eee's.

It's a locution straight out of pre-school: "________ should be free." And it turns up in public affairs all the time.

Sometimes we can tell that the person who says it knows better... But that person doesn't have the courage to say "Everyone else should pay for this", since they know the argument would collapse.

But in far too many cases, people really seem to think there's a power in the universe that can make things be cost nothing. And ironically, the things most often selected for the twinkle-kiss of the magic wand are things that are incredibly expensive... Doctor's care, ass-wiping from nurses, education from gifted thinkers, that kind of thing.

Human nature sux.
