So you want to buy a gingerbread house?

Well to us (gingerbread people), it's just a house. But this is the complex way in which we buy our houses. First, we pay half of the cost up front. We sign a few documents saying that we must pay our loans by such and such of year and year, and then we got the house, right? NO! First, the bank has to inspect if the house tastes and smells right. No one wants a rotten house. Imagine what would happen. First, they would complain to their neighbors about it. Then, the neighbors would complain about the complaining. Then, the government would hear the complaining and complain that they were ungrateful to be complaining about such complaints. Then, umm... I'm pretty sure the newspapers would write cheesy stories about it that would eat up the real news for a while. A major crisis. So, after the inspecting is done, then we get the house.
