after the disastrous roommate thing i just went through with an old friend, my policy now is that i won't live with anyone i'm not sleeping with. it's just too much trouble to put up with someone else's eccentricities unless i'm deeply emotionally enough involved with them that i can be honest, forthright, and leave the bedroom door open so the cat can get in and out at night. and i absolutely have to be able to be myself and do the things i do without interference...i will no longer put up with shit about smoking dope, playing electric guitar at midnight, or listening to
Raw Power on my morning commute. buy some fucking earplugs: this is who i am. learn to enjoy "If They Move, Kill 'Em" or go out to the grocery store.

How is any of that strange at all?

I'd say I'd be your roomie, but I don't want to have to sleep with you...

$350 a month for a pretty good sized 2 BR 1 BA , but it's fucking SE Kansas. Probably the reason I can afford half the shit I buy.

You'll probably be relegated to guarding anhydrous ammonia tanks at night to keep the meth heads from stealing it. Burns through flesh yet they'll take off running across fields with it in 5 gallon buckets. Seriously, never live here.

That reminds me of a scene from "The Stand".

A cozy rowhouse home in two levels, about 100 square meters, three bedrooms, livingroom, kitchen, bathroom with a small family sauna and separate shitter (actually two of them, one in both floors). Partially owned. Means I've paid 37.000 euros to move in and get to pay low-ish rate monthly rent, 1006 €.

It's nothing much BUT in Finland every house has one and it's not totally uncommon to have one in all the bigger apartments, too, if the house isn't very old.

$945/month for a 2-bedroom apartment in a really sweet part of town. Gas/water/trash are included which makes it a pretty decent deal (I think) for what and where it is.
I know my neighbors can sometimes hear me when I play, but I keep it moderate during the day and use headphones after 10 pm. Been here for 7 years without a problem.
Though right now I'm looking to move into this big industrial studio apartment. Rent will be a little more, but the place is hella rad and more noise will be an option.
