$34 For A Dish Rag: We Have Reached Peak Insanity In Los Angeles

As if I needed any more fuel for my fire to leave the United States

Sometimes, living in the Los Angeles I’m about to illustrate—in relation to the cost of day-to-day living—makes me wonder if I’m the only one experiencing these things. As if there’s a big joke being played only on me. And my girlfriend. Or maybe she’s in on it too.

Because, if this is happening to everyone else, I have to wonder who’s crazy. Me, for noticing and feeling a somewhat urgent need to do something about it. Or them for going along with what has crossed the line into completely absurd territory.
