House Buying Freakout

So... I'm working on buying a house. What an entirely unnecessarily complicated process!

If I were in charge of the world (what, I'm not yet? stupid voters.) I'd simplify things.

Maybe this would be easier in the Matrix. You know, go to a website run by the robots, add 2 bedrooms and a bath to your shopping cart, type in your carpet discount code and they insert it in any neighborhood you like. Right into the Matrix. In about 13 milliseconds.

Oh, and it doesn't really exist, so there's no mortgage... right?
