A man shows off his 78-square-foot apartment in Hell’s Kitchen, and absolutely breaks my heart.

The way this man has chosen to live is his business; I won’t judge him for that. I will, however, declare my deep hatred and resentment for the things people do just to say they live in New York City.

A video likes this only serves to justify the outrageous rent prices set by realtors and landlords. The entire apartment market gets obliterated when someone chooses to pay $800 per month for a narrow walkway of an apartment, a shared bathroom, and no kitchen. I mean, his dishes and utensils are next to his sneakers; his printer above the microwave.

Hell’s Kitchen, Clinton District, Midtown Manhattan, or whatever anyone wants to call it to dress it up, is not worth living like this. And living like that is not worth $800/month. This upset me.

The rent is too damn high.
