Cryptic real estate
Some people like cryptic crosswords. Others grapple with 5x5x5 Rubik’s cubes (check out the speed cubing warning on the site). Me, I like to deceipher acronyms in real estate ads. The challenge of staring at letters until real estate marketing sprouts into my head, it keeps my mind sharp.

My suggestion for OSP is “off street parking” (“Lock up garage & additional off street parking”)

Yes. Well, that explains a lot. The good news is that mine’s still alive! (just requires very *careful* turning)
