My house sucks. Don't start bitching about your house, don't even
START 'cause I have a lot of bitterness to release.
First off, as many of you could possibly know, my primitive
technology-fearing mother has prohibited the purchase of a microwave.
Yes, I do not have a microwave. Also, out dishwasher does not work,
forcing us to do them by hand, and only half of the burners on our oven
work. Rather than furnish these basic appliances, instead the money is
directed toward incredibly useless items, such as a fake wooden-floor.
Even this is a waste, because my previously described parents (see
Things That Suck concerning them) insist upon going about the labor
themselves. As a result the furniture in our living room is all
carefully placed to cover up spots where the floor is popping up.
Within the living is our TV. Our ONLY TV. We have one 26" TV, which
is constantly being fought over despite we do not have cable; and NBC,
WB, UPN, and FOX are usually too blurred to see anyhow. The TV
therefore is almost always jumbled with some Disney movie on ABC by my
sister, or some old-person show on CBS by my parents. I WOULD be
watching TV now...but I can't so I'm writing this.
My room WOULD be ok except my parents rearrange it every time I go to
school, it having a different layout every month, getting progessively
less and less space-effecient. Also the carpeting is rather thick and
old, and I have seen various insects crawling through this thick, brown
carpetry forest. I don't touch the floor.
In the bathroom, the hot water on the sink doesn't work. There IS a
bathtub, but you can't close the drain. The ice and water dispensers on
my refrigerator do not work. My room fan currently has two settings:
"off" and "fucking-tornado." Every time I walk in tha garage I cut my
foot on some of the various sharp-rusty objects placed so I alone will
step on them. There's a hole in my wall, by ...someone...other...
than...me... There are no band-aids in the house. And the ceiling-fan
in the living room lets dowm a dust storm every time it is operated.
Even the "computer" on which I am currently typing is crap. The only
purposes it serves is internet, word-processing, and Tetrinet. Plus it
sits atop a heavily padded chair, which sits on the carpet in my room,
so I have to type painfully slow in order to not loose my connection.
There is no phone outlet in my room, so there's an extremely long
extension cord reaching from my room to the next, only increasing my
already-high rate of disconnection.
I hate my house...can I stay at yours...?
