Why is the durable, environmentally sustainabler, net cheapest option always the one that is out of reach for the average person? It would look so swag. My crow brain is HEAVING! I want to live in the shiny penny house.

Also could anyone who has put on a metal roof share about their experience? Did it feel worth it? I'm planning to die in this house and I'm still young.

The dew of humid mornings easily condenses onto the thermal conductor of the hotel's metal roof. You wake every morning to the patter of rain, even on sunny days. Actual rain on the roof has a staccato drum beat that fills the living spaces with a lively buzz. You feel so connected to the elements.

That sounds really lovely to me. I love the sound of rain!

Metal rooves can be shiny. I've seen crows crowd around a shiny metal Denny's.
