And her countless hours of unpaid labor!

Which oof sure, being a housespouse is often way harder and more responsibility than people would think (even the ones who benefit from it) .. but damn being a housewife in the 50s? You know how much harder it was to cook back then?! Do laundry or vacuum or probably literally any household chore is so much easier and faster than today. Hell, even taking out the trash is easier not having to drag Oscar's heavy ass house to the curb.
