That's like saying you can't get an industrial sized deep fryer because you live in an apartment. You understand that nobody has a full sized deep fryer in their house, right?

>>15266523
My dad built a tandoor oven and an aluminum forge in the backyard of his house, I can't build any of that shit in an apartment without violating the lease terms and creating a serious safety hazard.

>>15266543
If you could build any of that shit you could afford not to live in an apartment.

>>15266554
I live in NYC, I'm not buying a fucking house. My dad lives in the Kansas City exurbs, it's easy to have a tandoor oven and small aluminum forge in the backyard there.

>>15266582
So you got out of deep flyover to go to a decent school and you're complaining that you can't build some white trash shit while you're getting a degree in one of the most expensive cities in the world?

>>15266597
I graduated a few years ago.

>leaves state with tons of space to live in a urban box
>sad he can't do things only people with space can do
It's a miracle you haven't burned yourself to death already

It's normal to miss shit from having a house when you live in a big city, and it's normal to miss things about the big city when you live in a house.

What's the restriction? No wood or charcoal cookers? If you think you can get away with it, you could build one of those ghetto flowerpot tandoors. It wouldn't look too suspicious on a balcony.

>because I live in an apartment
That seems to not stop all the fucking indians in every single apartment block in my country.

>>15266993
hard to relate to if you lived your entire life in the same basement

>>15266993
I left a big city a year ago to live in the country (9 million people to a place with under 3,500 people)

I dont miss anything about the city. It fucking sucked. People around here are much more real and incredibly kind.

I'd have moved out of the city years ago if I could get decent internet in the middle nowhere. Sadly that's a tall order. I'd love even just an acre or two.

>>15268863
You stupid fuck its 2020 not 2009 how the fuck you think i am messaging you.

>>15266497
Maybe you should grow up and buy a house then.

>>15268863
My uncle has his own cabin in Wisconsin with multiple acres of land in a sparsely populated area. He's had fast broadband internet for years.

>>15266582
if you live in the american city with the most and best indian restaurants why do you want a tandoor in your house?

>>15269444
It's fun to cook your own food sometimes, and I have lots of good memories of using my dad's tandoor.

>>15266497
just don't tell the landlord. i do a lot of things in my apartment that i'm not allowed to do, like autistic amateur chemistry experiments.

Move or stop complaining, bugman.

>>15269470
what if you got a japanese shichirin? granted i understand it is completely different than a tandoor. but i think you could accomplish a similar taste and you could manage with the windows open or something

>wanting a thirdie auschwitz oven

Possible, but unless it's satellite which is expensive and quite shitty, not likely.

>>15269608
Not him but my Internet is just a 4G data line and that's pretty decent.

No dipshit, plenty of rural areas have non-satellite broadband these days.

https://broadbandnow.com/Wisconsin/Cable Cable Wisconsin (population 825, population density 12/sq mile) has fiber internet. https://norvado.com/internet/

It costs 2x what my internet does, but it's pretty fast. I don't even get cell service in that area, but the internet still works.

>>15266993
no fuck the big city. I love living in a small town in the midewest

>>15270202
Fair enough. I live in the shithole south (not really even that rural) and we don't have it. But it's like a 3rd world country down here w/o interesting food.

>>15268790
how do you buy cooking ingredients? can you even find stuff like gruyere?

>>15266582
Any greaseball on an NYPD captain's salary can afford to buy a house in Staten Island or outer Queens, stop acting like the only dwellings in the city are $3M railroad apartments in the West Village.

>>15270895
Supermarkets and for specialty foods it's called the internet. There are some farmers markets and there are specialty stores if I really want them. Not to mention its a 3 hour drive to the big city if I really want anything that special. But desu I will trade gruyere for peace and quiet.

Another thing I get to do here is have a nice expansive garden with heritage organic crops.

Eventually I will have my own dairy animals and I will make my own cheese too.

I work in Midtown Manhattan (when there's not a pandemic) and don't want to deal with a fucking commute from Staten Island
