It'd be like Pain and Gain. Throughout the move they would have to keep reminding the audience that it's based on true events.

You poor soul. How did you survive? Can you teach us your ways?

Yup. California Dept of Public health said basically that.

You got COVID? Whatever, just wear a mask on your mandated in- office days.

In the show Arrested Development, where the quote referenced in XKCD originated, a character looses their hand to a seal that is set loose (a loose seal).

It's tenuous at best.

I went to a college known for large amounts of bike traffic. We called the water/mud stains on new students "The Freshman Stripe".

Dude, I made it like 80% of the way through that movie before I noticed it was Romeo and Juliet. I felt so dumb when it hit me.

SUPER high level, and slightly biased explanation: corporate home buying.

Large investment firms like buying up property increasing the demand and raising prices. This prices normal people out of being able to afford a house. It also raises other housing related costs like rent, because these firms want to make a profit. This in turn prices people out of being able to afford ANY housing.

When we're just numbers on a spreadsheet, there is a certain level of vacancy and homelessness, that maximizes profits.
