    I realized very early on that renting is incredibly expensive and that getting my own place was the most important step to having any sort of financial security. Even if it was a shithole, it was my shithole for storing my equity. I hear these stories of people who rent the same place for 20-30 years and end up paying fivefold what it would have cost them to live in a much nicer place with no cunt landlord to pay fealty to.

    Obviously, if you’re paying for a service and not getting it, you have a right to complain. If your landlord provides reliable shelter for an agreed upon price, I don’t think it’s fair to consider them the scum of the earth. People have a right to own property and do what they see fit with it.

      This is all true, and anybody who disagrees with this basic stuff needs to grow up.
