I like the fun of the city but I honestly prefer a house in the middle of nowhere cause I can do what I like and there's no landlord. I can fix poo poo myself and I enjoy it. I also grew up in the middle of nowhere black forest Germany so I like not being around anyone. I had to check a dead guys house nearby every day for insurance purposes and it was sick. He had some weird poo poo going on. I wish I stole poo poo from his workshop, he had the good stuff. He also had a lot of diapers and there was mouse poo poo everywhere.

If given the choice of a house or a nice two bedroom apartment I'm for sure taking the apartment. ive lived in apartments for my entire adult life and i like them but the one reason i'd want a house is to be able to grow some food in a yard. my father-in-law grows a ton of stuff in his back yard and its just really nice having fresh fruit and veggies around all the time. my current place has a shared balcony and i grow a few things in pots including some herbs but its not really the same as being able to grow like citrus trees and collard greens etc.

Man, gardening kicks rear end. I've been hanging out on my folks' farm since covid and it's fun as hell to cook stuff from the garden. The plums this year were loving amazing, and those tiny orange tomatoes are unparalleled. All store-bought tomatoes are unfortunately trash by comparison. 9 months of the year, I'm missing those matoes.

Because it works so well on a remote basis, animation carried the entertainment industry through the pandemic and we were all able to stay employed from home or wherever. But also we all got laid off at the start of this year, all of us, so y'know! Good n' bad!  I do recommend loving off to a farm should the opportunity ever arise, though.

I've lived on farms, villages, small towns, suburban sprawl and inner city flats. All have their pros and cons. Except the suburbs, which just suck. Worst of all worlds.

Living on a farm sounds nice but working on a farm looks tiring, dangerous and gross.

Especially goons who probably have poo poo health Having had to call the cops a couple of times here, they won't get here if I call 911 for 30-60 minutes I assume the Fire Department would be about 30 minutes. I'm on my own.

I lived at college/in apartments till I was 40, and one thing I never appreciated until I moved into a house is, you really don't have to deal with winter. You might have to shovel your front steps or a back porch, but that's minimal, compared to what you have to do when owning a home. Every snow storm is work, and the big ones, a lot of work. And then you have 2-3 snow events a week, and the winter becomes this constant effort to keep a house accessible. With an apartment, you don't even have to consider that.

It does happen! America is weird!

If it were possible to live in an apartment without the slamming door neighbor or the stompy kids neighbor or the lanai smoker neighbor or the never report the roaches because they don’t bother me neighbor.

Yeah it's certainly possible. You need to find a building built out of bricks not wood

my building is made out of stucco and concrete mostly. i live in LA and can't think of a single apartment building in the area made of either bricks or wood. bricks are kind of frowned upon in most of california because of earthquakes, you can use them to decorate an exterior wall as a sort of outer layer, but not for anything structural nonetheless i dont really hear my neighbors much. my nextdoor neighbor does love to blast techno sometimes, but i enjoy it. also the whole building smells like weed all the time but i dont mind that either, in fact im a contributor to it my upstairs neighbor has a "secret dog" but they are very good at keeping the dog under control and i only ever hear it bark if coyotes come really close to the building Earwicker fucked around with this message at 19:13 on Oct 29, 2023 |

I'm talking about these: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-over-1 You've seen them if you've looked for apartments recently. They're the new construction buildings with nice appliances and counter tops yet everything somehow feels cheap and lovely because it is. If you make the mistake of living in one, you'll hear a pin drop in your neighbor's apartment. Avoid them like the plague.
