> I'm going to give up 15 years of my life -- the time that most people spend getting married, having 2.5 kids, etc. to live in SV -- when I could spend those fifteen years living in the burbs in a big house with the white picket fence in almost any other major city in the US?

First of all I'm not "giving it up" and I have no desire for your lifestyle. It honestly sounds horrible.

Enjoy your life.

I was hoping that the "2.5 kids" part would enforce that I'm not talking about me in particular since no one can have half a kid, but I was using the cliched "average number of kids per household".

Yes I understood it, can you simply not believe that somebody doesn't want to live in a generic neighborhood behind a white picket fence?
