I've got a question. It's gonna sound pretty complainy but I don't really mean it like that, I'm genuinely curious as to the situation of those elsewhere in the world.

The fairly standard living situation for young people here, at least in towns and cities, is to share a many bedroomed flat/house with shared common facilities. I, for example, live in a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1 kitchen, no living room flat with 3 other people, all renting our bedrooms individually. I give it about 50/50 on whether I'm still living in a similar situation when I'm 30, and would expect the same of most people my age (although a lot of them will be living with friends because they're not like me). The only people I know my age who aren't in flat/houseshares are people in relationships who can DINK it up, people who did really well for themselves, or people who live in the back end of nowhere.

Is that the young people housing situation everywhere? I feel like when I see people on the internet (so mostly americans) talk about moving out, they seem to be getting their own place or lodging in the spare room of an actual household rather than being in an ever rotating collection of strangers you share a corridor with.

The phrase "butt stuff" would sound a lot more dignified and less infantilizing if you read "stuff" as a verb instead of a noun.

But don't reverse it, because it has the opposite effect - "Are you coming to dinner this Sunday? I here grandmama is making a wonderful stuff butt"

In the U.S. if you live in New York things generally work out the same as you described. In the rest of the country though I guess real estate and land availability is such that you can more readily afford a loft or one bedroom outside of college.  We just have a lot more space to spread out here. It's not terribly unusual for people to rent a house or multi bedroom apartment and share it with others, or to rent an attic room or something, but the status quo is that people who have moved out of their parent's houses live on their own. Of course for many the weight of college debt and sometimes limited employment opportunities means some people have to move back in with their parents after college.

TLDR: So the expectation is that if you're treading water, outside a major metropolitan area, you have your own place. If you're doing well for yourself you have your own home or condo.

I've been exercising every single evening for like two whole weeks now and I'm still not hot. What gives?

You look in a mirror and discover the truth - you've been hot all along
