Palo Alto gone wild: a $5M home where ‘every owner’s children has gone on to Harvard or Stanford’ (haha this is giving me cina energy)

@skinnylatte Nice to see the next generation pulling themselves up by their parents' bootstraps.
@skinnylatte I so don't understand American 'architecture’
@skinnylatte oh god, I hate everything about this
@skinnylatte don't overlook the 888 in the listing price, either!
@skinnylatte Every owner's children since 2017? How many owners/children have there been in only eight years? This makes me think nobody can stand to live there for more than a few months.
@skinnylatte@hachyderm.io should not have read those comments
edit: also, par for course
@skinnylatte goodness. People who buy expensive house can afford to get their kids into schools with well publicised history of being pay-to-play.

@skinnylatte *the Aristocrats voice* The Meritocracy!
@skinnylatte The American ‘dumbing down’ represented in the advert means If you fall for it, you’re dumb as a stump.
@leffe @skinnylatte Palo Alto has some cute mid-century homes. This ain't one of them.
@skinnylatte The framed acceptance packets' combo of "wow that's dorky and you put it on zillow" and "oh god i've seen this irl" is making me cringe into oblivion
