    I quite like the way How I Met Your Mother handles this - the size of the apartments is the narrator misremembering. There’s an episode where the characters have been viewing a house in New Jersey Long Island - they return to the apartment and it’s portrayed as the size it realistically would be.

      That would just be a dig on their intelligence. You can’t see the massive problem of not being able to afford housing? How can I relate to this character?

        Same energy:

        In episode 2F09, when Itchy plays Scratchy’s skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes that same rib twice in succession yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we, to believe that this is some sort of a, a magic xylophone or something?
