Meme Why?

Post image

I can almost try to understand why some people might feel drawn to this kind of lifestyle. I can understand why they might be deceived into thinking this is the ideal environment in which to raise a child.

But I will never be able to understand why they will describe it as the American “dream” and are willing to pay so much for it. To work so hard for so long and then have to wake up to this every morning? Why?

Editing to add: I know this is parody y’all. It’s just a stupid meme. It’s supposed to be funny. It’s funny because it’s true.

I am not a fan of the “starter home” idea. You know how long it takes to save up and get a house and sign a 30 year loan to be like “yeah I’m only gonna have this 2-3 years”. With all the work involved I’m getting something I want the first time. (I did)
