1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Hey I had to sacrifice my mental health and recruit two college students to live with me in order to have one.

If I was living alone on my 50K salary I’d have a tiny apartment or a cardboard box. Can’t imagine how people with lower paying jobs feel in this town now.

 

i dont need it i dont need it i dont need it i dont need it

 

Oh you deeeeeefinitely need it

Then donate me your truck so I can practice welding

 

I do need it

I also need to fix my house lol

 

That's one tight ass

 

Wow, it's like they actually listened to users. return of mag safe, more ports, a full set of function keys

With 33s on, my fingers push against the ceiling of my garage when trying to lift the hood.

 

Now they need to bring back built in CD-ROM drives and I'll be happy

 

Haven't finished digitizing the porn collection yet?

 

And the lack of function keys drives me nuts, my wife has an MacBook Air and I can't for the life of me get used to the fact that you have to press 2 keys simultaneously to adjust the volume or brightness

 

Wait what

 

Should've seen his VHS collection

 

They will make a comeback one day, like vinyl records..just watch

 

I hear ya, the average salary in CA isn't much higher than that, and the income needed to live on your own (with a garage) is way above it for most people

I saw a listing online the other day for a 1 bedroom going for $3k, and the guy wanted proof of income that the rent wouldn't be more than 1/4 the renter's monthly income..LOL. Its getting crazy

 

$150k a year for a 1 bedroom?

Hell, Ive got three bedrooms on a half acre for a fraction of that...

 

This was a 1 bedroom apartment at that. Granted, $3k for a 1 bedroom is crazy even by CA standards unless its in some ritzy part of Hollywood or right on the ocean.

edit - or up in SF Bay Area

 

Thats par for the course in NY.

 

yeah I just remembered SF Bay Area too, it's probably cheap for up there. I just don't get why someone pulling in $12k a month would even be interested in renting but they are out there.

 

I always assume those people rent because they want to maintain career flexibility. Need to job hop to the other side of the country for a 20% raise? No problem.
