House Hunters

I like to watch the show "House Hunters" on HGTV, but sometimes it makes me angry.  Tonight, for instance.  A couple is looking for their first house.  They look to be in their mid-twenties.  Their budget is up to $450,000.  They just looked at a nice house for $366,000.  What did they think of it?  Well, it was nice, but...

"There's no waterfall in the pool area."
"I don't really like the laminate counter top - we'd have to change that."
"I really want stainless appliances, not these white ones."
"I'm not fond of these white cabinets, but with the money we're saving that would be an easy fix."

Seriously, do they not realize that they sound like selfish, spoiled brats?  These people are buying a first home that is nicer than most people will ever have!  And they are complaining!  Episodes like this one make me wish I could reach in the TV and smack them both upside the head!!
