Help for those who can't help themselves

Ever notice how often the very people suffering from a particular grievance are the same ones unable to take advantage of the solution? Like those signs in the subway that offer help to illiterates. Simply call the 1800 for a range of free services. If only they could read the signs, I'm sure we could solve the problem.

While mostly literate, apartment dwellers have their own set of grievances. We love the way we live, yet it's hard not to acknowledge small points of suffering compared to our house-living compatriots. Points of envy:
- Built in parking (aka: driveways)
- Washers and dryers
- Gardens
- Outside grills
- Stairs
- Storage: garages, attics and basements

Yet more proof that in life those that have just keep getting, take a look at this cool idea. If you have stairs, convert them into even more storage. Perhaps a place to store your barbecue tools and garage door openers. Bastards.
