I see that my comment inspired some emotions. I think I should clarify - I absolutely know that I have it better than baby boomers in almost every way, but I wish they would lay off telling me how housing now is "not that bad". Trust me, I'd rather try and think of a solution than sit on my hands and say "why me!". But I'm Australian, whining is in my blood I guess.

I should apologise, it's not directed at you specifically. I've just been hearing this complaint for several years now and it's really getting on my tits these days. I generally mean everything in that comment, I just could have phrased it a bit less like we're face to face in a pub.

My apologies for that.

And yes, I have a double whammy - I'm Australian, and I'm a sysadmin, so I really like to complain :)
