  I was on a caribbean cruise last week

  Well a cruise is not a suitable control group.
  
  
  Lazy bastards sitting on a deck chair the whole trip. Fit people swim the Bermuda triangle to get there.

  What were you expecting to find when you are on a boat full of people eating at the buffet 3X daily for a week?

  I was on a Mediterranean cruise last year, and despite the free flowing food and booze, everybody was thin and attractive. They were all also Italian. The only fatties were speaking Russian or English, but that was 1% of the boat, maybe.

  A grade school teacher with a master degree make 85 k a year with gold plated health insurance and retirement is transferable to the spouse.

  Horse pucky. That doesn't happen until about year 16 of teaching. Most teachers don't make it half that long. Entry level pay for teachers in LA county is $45k. $45k in Los Angeles is a joke unless you are dealing crack on the side.

  Even picking paint colors...It's so nice not having to look at "apartment white" anymore.

  Does "apartment white" include the green, charcoal, orange, apricot, and blue that we've been painting our walls in the last three rentals we've lived in? God our LL's must be the biggest assholes in the world.
