Loving drywall? We derned hedonistic Americans...here we go again ;/

If you need to replace a refrigerator, or have had it with that saggy couch - they're made overly bulky these days, but won't hold up very long if you or a family member is over (oh my goodness) 200 pounds...oh, comeon, the average guy is nearly that.  Anyway, if you're an older person, living alone - read somewhere where almost half of adults live alone - good luck finding major appliances and furniture that isn't short on lifespan and long on square footage.  

You'd think an apartment-sized washer and dryer would cost less than the standard 3-loaders.  Nope, and that's if you can find one.  Same goes with refrigerators.  In the real world, most people have a limited budget, and buy what's available - and on sale, if possible.  And many people don't have rooms the size of baseball diamonds.  So, there you are, living alone, with limited floor-space - with waay more frig, waay more washer than you need.  By the way, old people generally eat significantly less than young people - so the electricity cools a constant 1/2 empty frig - and that cooled air exits upon opening the door.
