  The term “soccer” originated in the UK as a shortened slang for “assoc(iation) football”.

  The US didn’t come up with that term, like almost everything else, they stole it from someone. Don’t blame the U.S. for the UKs habit of abbreviating stuff.

  Humans have discovered we’re in captivity, and so we’ve stopped breeding.

  You know this is an excerpt from a fiction story written by Terry Pratchett, right? This isn’t about a real person.

  Yeah they’re still technically $700/mo in the negative.

  $1400 mortgage + $1600 apartment is $3000 in expenses. $2300 income from the rent gives them an outlay of $700 they still have to come up with for the apartment.

  So for strictly housing costs, they pay $700/mo. That likely doesn’t include all of the other things they need: food, transportation, medical, utilities, etc.
