No heat

My apartment has no heat.

With what I pay in rent, I can get a 4 bedroom 3 bath brownstone on the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

My apartment has no heat.

I can buy a small plot of land in Cavite every month with what I pay in rent.

My apartment has no heat.

I brought this unfortunate fact up with Ate M. (the font of all Hong Kong related information) and she responded in her usual cool and collected manner, "Oh, there's really no heating in Hong Kong. None of the buildings are heated. You need to buy space heaters."

My apartment has no heat, so I need to buy space heaters.
