When you think of the kind of nightmares people have it's typically themed with death - yours or someone you know, crime, monsters, bugs, etc. Not mine. My nightmare, whether asleep or wide awake, is hoarding. It's actually hard to talk about because it disgusts me that much. Come to think of it, my absolute worst nightmare would be tying me down, putting loose hair all over me, and making me watch Hoarders in a cluttered/disorganized house. Put me over the edge why don't you.
I literally cannot comprehend how people let their houses get that unorganized and pile up with garbage to the point that they're living in beyond unsafe conditions. Please don't pull the "it's a disease" argument on me because I won't hear it. As someone that is an organized, clutter free, minimalist I just don't see how someone can let themselves and their homes go so badly. You mean to tell me that in the process of the shitshow growing NO ONE has the right mind to put a stop to it. Family, friends, where are they? Obviously not paying any visits to the hoarders houses. It just makes no sense.
Leave it to TLC to create the show Hoarders. Shoot me in the face. As you may have guessed I have never seen an episode. Actually, I take that back. I have seen about 15 minutes of an episode and then had to remove myself from the situation. The rage and anger that built up in me was more than I could handle. And to that matter, just thinking about this so called 'disease' makes me really angry. The 15 minutes I saw was a woman about 60-65 years old, living alone, but had grown children that "didn't know her house was that bad". She was living in a house with no running water, no working plumbing or heat. Yes, no working plumbing... meaning she peed and dropped the kids off in bags and then left those to pile up in the house. What the fucking hell is wrong with this picture? EVERYTHING. Absolutely everything is wrong with that picture.
Needless to say you will never catch me watching Hoarders, and if I am, I've been drugged. I don't recommend watching it, unless you're looking to get into hoarding. Some key advice/thoughts from my mom... "I'd rather be a whore than a hoarder." A-to-the-men lady.
take it or leave it: It has been brought to my attention that I enjoy rhyming and abbreviating and sometimes I even combine the two. Have I known this fact? Yes, of course, but I didn't realize that other people had caught onto my crazy talk. You see, when I rhyme and abbrev it makes perfect sense to me, but usually makes zero sense to whoever I'm talking to. I typically abbrev a legit word and then the rhyming word is just whatever rolls off the tongue. It makes your average everyday vocabulary much more exciting. Highly recommended for all!
Examples: perf-a-lerf= perfect. totes magotes= totally. awky turts= awkward turtle. creep-a-leep= creepy.
