Oh em gee, as the kids would say. You are locked into a year long lease? Double-u tee eff! That is what a lease is, a contract. Get a roommate, yes, even if it’s a studio! Sublet your place. Change y0ur own damn oil, I am rewiring the entire engine compartment of my car by myself. Your 1990’s nostalgia opening wasn’t winning you any sympathetic ears either. Being born in the mid 1980’s I resent being lumped in with these gadget-gazing narcissists.
