I was walking back from the gas station and the cold was already in my lungs and I just wanted to get inside and warm up and then I saw…my neighbor from hell walking down the hill towards me. He didn’t see me so I darted behind someone’s house, then cut through two backyards up to my house. Now I say I’m lucky because no one was home at those 3 houses, and my ass could have potentially been shot by some unhinged boomer who keeps a shotgun by the door.
My neighbor sucks and when he’s drunk (which is all the time) he doesn’t respect your time and tries to talk your ear off about how evil “Mexicans” are and how his life is shit because his license got taken away for multiple DUIs.
Suburbs suck.


And in the end he explains that it’s somehow a roundabout dig at how the liberal mind craves proximity to power but not the will to wield it, and so on and so forth
Edit: And then he says something horribly transphobic
