Attention - Free Rent In Minnesota

 A few weeks a wonderful Chicagoite? Chicagonian? Chicagogander? Let's just call him Jon, said he was waiting for a post with something similar to the title above:

Attention - Free Rent In Minnesota

I posted it again in case you couldn't see it or it was too far for you scroll up to see since I am sure you use some hindering resolution similar to 640x480. We don't do that in Minnesota.

Since the challenge (I considered it a challenge) I have been having a hard time thinking of a way to lure you into this fine state with Free Rent.

Here are the possible solutions I had and their downfalls:

1. Squatting - There are many places to squat in this city and you can even use the squatters symbol (like they did two doors down (no, not the band or the other lesser known (don't worry) flint area band)). Sure there have been some amazing actions in Minnesota helping people stay in their homes when they are being evicted around here (it gets cold here (trust me, you will love the weather)). The problem is, people squat everywhere, all over the country and world.

2. My Couch/Spare bedroom - As much as I would love to see all of you, I don't think my house can fit all of my family and friends (The entire lot (6) of you).

3. House Van - This is the best option. Did you know that Minnesota has the highest number of awesome nomadic van dwellers? It probably doesn't. I just made that up. Anyway, one of my friends (let's forever refer to him as Indianapolis Nate) already has a preferred parking space behind my house to park his future van house any time he wants. Once again, not everybody can live in my tiny parking pad in the alley.

There are more options, but they all end in the same place. You can't all fit in my house or they are no different that living in any other place. So, since you now understand that your city is no different than mine for free rent, quit your long search for a free place to live and just live here, since it is apparently the only thing holding you back.

What kind of... this one sucks. Make up your own "What kind of XYZ does your ABC city have to offer?"
