This is where they find them
I'm a freelance beer sandwich artist, my partner is a paranormal ghost pepper streamer, and our budget is $2.4 million.
I would unironically watch a paranormal ghost pepper streamer at least three times.
I'm a stay at home furniture driver, my partner is an investigative glitter wrangler, and our budget is $6.6 million.
I need to contemplate career paths if furniture drivers can work from home.

You should totally get your license bruh. It's not that hard and there are some public venues you can't even play at without one.
I'm just getting in to Air guitar keeping, but I've always been confused about the difference between a Sport Air Guitar License and a Private Air Guitar License. Should I go for the SAGL/PAGL Instrumentation endorsement as well?
You can't just say perchance
I'm a full time air guitar cyclist, my partner is an unlicensed mole rat trainer, and our budget is $1.5 million.
I'm an unlicensed watercolor repairman, my partner is a freelance glitter fighter, and our budget is $1.3 million
That's just amazing, thank you for that. Honestly hilarious
I must not be in the know with the lingo... because I can't quite parse that.
Husband: is a sandwich artist
Wife: is an $8000 rebate for a heat pump? Is this the new form of mail order bride: get $8000 in coupons or a wife worth $8000?
They are saying the husband gets his income from being a sandwich artist and the wife’s income comes from a rebate on purchasing a heat pump.
Well, she's not worth 8 grand. Part of that is travel expenses, visa, schooling, etc. It adds up pretty quick.
Haha, no. It's a government rebate for buying a new heat pump.
What's a heat pump?
A reverseable air condition unit.
What AC does in essence. A heat pump moves hot air from one area to another. Heatpumps are bi directional(thus heat or cool by fliping direction of airflow) AC is technically single directional, and some people mistaken Heatpumps for AC.
For typical uses, ACs are setup to remove heat inside and push it outside. If an AC can also be used as a heater, then its probably not AC (or it probably is a combo unit). Heat pumps dont have that problem.
Example of a utility that uses the same concept as AC is a refrigerator. It regulates temps with a compressor inside to move heat from inside to out, but never the reverse.
I was totally thinking about how these shows must be faked in some way. I just figured they payed people to go looking, despite the fact they actually have a nice enough home(s) and don't actually need to move.
They are faked, at least partially.
I was friends with a guy who was on an episode of a one season HGTV show called "Container Homes." He and his wife at the time actually wanted to buy or build a container home.
They had talked to a developer and were going to have one built. Got on the show somehow. After the show started filming, some off-screen drama happened with the developer, and an HOA or zoning board or something, and long story short they were denied the permits to build one. But the show wanted to keep going, so they used the construction of developer's office, which was also a container building, for footage, and when it was completed did a super quick, rather pathetic job of making it look like it was decorated as a house. Then filmed the "reveal," which at that point was just kind of rubbing salt in the wound. He looked so dead inside, it's hilarious.
A lot of the house hunter-type shows are allegedly shot with couples who are already closing on a house, and then HGTV just takes them out and films them just looking at other houses literally for show.
I always figured they paid people to act excited on The Price is Right.
Imagine if someone didn’t even want to be there and just went to the studio because their family surprised them with tickets while they were on vacation. Then they get picked and super grudgingly go through the whole game.
Nah, they just wouldn't choose someone who wasn't excited to be there. Pretty sure they interview everyone before hand and watch them before filming before deciding who to pick. It's definitely not just random.
The house hunter shows are always about people who just bought a house, They want a shot of a barely moved into place and then they work with relators to show the other 2 properties that are just on the market. All the rest is just a story to sell the show we don't know anything of the actual buying process of the 'real house'. My fun game now if I get stuck with my elders watching this is to guess which house is the 'real house' and which are the weird ones the relator is showing for impact.
I do this too. Usually pretty obv
I haven't watched many but there was one couple that very, very obviously got shown a house they LOVED, was the cheapest option by a mile and you saw the the light go out of their eyes when they were talking to the fake realtor at the end about the actual one they bought.
I figured that was probably the highlight of the genre so I didn't need to watch any more.
