You could afford a home, 2 cars, a housewife and 3 children with this income on the 90s.

I struggle with what slurs to call them because even rats are smart and can be cute.
Snakes are cool to some people.
But those little earwig bugs. Nobody likes those.
So I think thst should somehow be worked into the lexicon.
Problem is, it doesn't have as much pop as the big slur.

my parents bought a townhome in 1980, with some favorable farm home mortgage
the monthly payment was 262/month, but under certain conditions (job loss, etc.) they could pay 99/month without any penalty other than extending the term
so assuming homer's take home pay was 1569/month, he could realistically afford a mortgage of 400/month and be pretty comfortable
