. Damn , I always forget about the story . xD It ' s been left out for so long that I forgot they were going to elaborate on it . Though I think if this idea was integrated early enough , it could be fit into it without breaking anything or feeling too shoehorned in . Pedit a word <| sep |> If there was any doubting Pizzagate , that ' s gone now . <| sep |> I ' m so glad you mentioned this , I almost forgot about her . I am a woman and had the biggest crush on Miss Honey as a little girl . I thought it was just me pining for a Mom to be around but it was a legit crush . I didn ' t realize that I was pansexual at the time . Or maybe I have mommy issues too . I ' m going to stop questioning it now . <| sep |> I ' ve looked at real estate in both Toronto and Vancouver and could get double the floorspace , AND parking I really want somewhere to park with the same monthly payment . And yeah , I think its market rates from centuries of the middle class selling themselves short . It ' s definitely not cost of living , not really . I ' m always staggered by how cheap everything is when I visit the US , though I ' ve not been to Canada yet . But you are right about taxes these are taken into account a little here , as most companies have a London allowance of about 5000 per annum that they add to the salaries of people that work within a certain boundary . What ' s awful is that you only need to be a few hundred feet outside of that boundary , where prices are perhaps 0 . 1 % lower , to not get any of it . Were I to get work inside London , rather than on its outskirts , I could probably expect 12 k more including the London allowance after taxes that ' d be 8 k , and my increase in housing would easily exceed that . However , there are way more companies and opportunities in London , so the potential for rapid progression is way higher there , justifying the shortterm financial difficulty to many though not to me , hence why I don ' t work in London . Plus it smells . .
