Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

I'm an annoying sister, because my brother keeps texting me and I'm only replying with memes. Though, to be fair, if you text me something like "The rent in Boulder is exorbitant, and we can buy a nice house for $400 less a month," you really should expect me to reply with the The Rent Is Too Damn High guy. Come on.

I know, right? But I think he means the rent is too damn high compared with what a mortgage payment would be on a similar house. I THINK. On the other hand, they just came from Vermont, where my understanding is that you can pay your rent in weed or with a killer drum circle, so they might think ANY rent is high.

To be fair, you *might* be able to pay your rent that way in Northside, too. But we own, so the bank wants cold hard cash instead of bong hits.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hee!

He's saying the mortgage is $400 less than the rent, right? Not that either of the prices are $400.

Yes -- like if rent was $2,000, the mortgage would be $1,600.

Or, in weed terms, 20 bong hits vs 16.

(Like I know ANYTHING about pot. Sheesh.)

That is exactly why I ended up buying my place almost a year ago. I'm currently paying about the same as my old rent for a two bedroom apartment. For a place about the same size as what I have now - I'd be luck for a $400 difference.

Could you pay in weed, or is that just limited to Boulder? (Or, from what my brother tells me about Boulder, paying in tacos is acceptable.)
