The salaries here are higher as well, provided you’re in the right field. I’m SF, tech and finance are king and I’m in finance. So while my rent is higher than the median rent nationwide, so is my salary. Of course that doesn’t mean that I’ll ever be able to (or want to) buy a house in SF, but there are places in the Bay Area that would be reasonable once I want to settle down with my picket fence house and 2.5 kids.
Hell yeah. My home is a strictly no pants zone, at least for me. My girlfriend is a monster and starts cooking first thing when she gets home from work, without taking her work clothes off. I’ll never understand it.
His parents’ money*. I’m considering moving to NYC sometime soon and looked at apartments there recently. If you have a job that affords you the ability to own an apartment with a rooftop pool, you’re not writing pieces for PGP to make some cash on the side.
I won’t even be mad if that happens. I respect the hell out of him as a player and it’ll be cool to forever say that I was there when LeBron dropped 60 on the Warriors in the finals.
Girlfriend’s company has a suite at Oracle. They were raffling off tickets for game 2 on Sunday and she won. Looking forward to having the greatest sports experience of my life.
For alone time, before the trip, have your s/o set expectations by communicating the in-laws that you need some alone time from every now and then. Then, when you’re on the trip, step away and ask your s/o to tell the in-laws that you’re going to do your own thing for a bit. Don’t overdo it, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable to ask for an hour or two alone per day.
Shitting is easy – just go when you need to go. You’re all adults, no need to make shitting discreet. Own the fact that you’re about to drop 10 pounds of waste into the toilet and be proud of it.
If they invite you, the expectation is that they’re going to pay for most things, or at least the accommodations. If you guys end up eating at restaurants(s) during the trip, footing the bill for that will go a long way.
Totally agree with you. Who cares if randoms like your picture unless you get your self worth from likes? When I got an Instagram a few months ago, I purged my social network and only added people that I’ve spoken to in the last year. Ended up being about 60 people and counting. But now, whenever I post a good picture, at least half usually like it because these are people that actually care about what’s going on in my life.
“If anything, her biggest worry was people judging her. She was a jobless white affluent girl who skated by on both a college education and credit cards paid for in full by her dad.”
I’m shocked that Girl actually aware of this. Also, she’s going to leave Todd at the altar, isn’t she?

There’s currently a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo in my neighborhood listed for $1.1 million, which means it’ll probably sell for $1.3 million.
This piece is satire, and a pretty good one at that.
Not going the DM way because I like my anonymity when posting here, but I take your word for it.
I meant to say “to rent an apartment,” but owning one also applies.

To be fair, if the dude is willing to cheat on his girlfriend, that relationship is toast regardless of whether he goes through with it or not.
Bring warm clothes. Summers here are cold as fuck. Don’t expect it to be above 60.
Also, there’s free unlimited food and free unlimited booze and my girlfriend is driving so I’m already dreading the Monday morning hangover.

Yeah right. Eric isn’t going anywhere as long as Rachel keeps sending him bush-less pictures.
What happened to her?

I’m waiting for roach milk to catch on among hipsters. After all, you gotta wash down that avocado toast with something.
Seriously. I mean Roseanne’s tweet was yesterday and her reference to using Ambien was this morning. So much wasted potential.
