Real estate

A market for people to make money off people that want a place to live.

People and entities involved in real estate benefit the most from an influx of outsiders moving to an area, so of course they want high census counts and little to no resistance to their plan.

UNreal Estate

UNreal estate is a social term which describes the process through which a shady broker,landlord or property manager uses fictional or false information when listing anything permanently affixed to the land, such as buildings, specifically property that is fixed in location, for sale or rent on classified ads placed within the public realm. Said process could involve the offering of property which is not available (otherwise known as bait and switch), listing false characteristics of a property or just completely fabricating an entire listing.

Craigslist is so packed with UNreal estate garbage ads these day that I might have never found an apartment if it weren't for the Loftninja!

Sunny Day Real Estate

Incredible post hardcore, godfathers of emo. Jeremy Enigk screams his lungs out for our own enjoyment. Dan Hoerner=godhead. When Nate Mendel quit, they died-he invented the rad bass licks of the nineties. And W. Goldsmith, the drummer, is so RAW.

Albums to get-Diary, LP2, How it feels to be something on

Too bad they broke up.

Burningofthemidnightlamp: Emo is so lame. But i love old emo; like sunny day real estate, they rock.
Punkrudeloser:Yeps. Emo is lame. Why does it remind you of real estate? thats just creepy.
Burningofthemidnightlamp:...intolerant fuck.

screen estate

A variation on the concept of real estate, screen estate is the total display area of the monitor(s) connected to a computer, and a subject of bragging rights for computer geeks. Like with real estate, the more/bigger, the better: computer geeks agree that you can never have too much screen estate.

Have you seen his gaming rig? Three 24" monitors: dude's got some serious screen estate!

Fourth Estate

The term Fourth Estate refers to the press, both in its explicit capacity of advocacy and in its implicit ability to frame political issues. The term goes back at least to Thomas Carlyle in the first half of the 19th century.

None of our political writers ... takes notice of any more than three estates, namely, Kings, Lords, and Commons ... passing by in silence that very large and powerful body which form the fourth estate in this community ... The Mob.3
