Odd, the author mentions living in Portland, and every Costco in the Portland metro area has skylights.

That's yet another thinly disguised case of punching down: the author wants you to know that they are not the type of person who lives close to a Costco, typically in the suburbs. This author's attitude is so tiresome.
