Jul. 22nd, 2003 11:11 amToday is finally painting day!
I got fucking strongarmed by the girl moving into my room, who kept threatening to bring her deposit to me in stacks of cash, wrapped in a paper bag, which I guess I can then put in my backpack and take on the subway to deposit like a drug mule. What is up with people who are "adults," and live in NY and expect to pay rent, but somehow, for years, have neglected to get a checking account?
Also, what is up with people who expect everybody else to take care of them, as if they are owed by the universe? I'm not talking about people who are paralyzed from the waist down or who have schizophrenia or even are on welfare. I'm talking about people who are wreathed in an impenetrable sense of entitlement. I live in Williamsburg, I am very familiar with this.
Every year that I get older, I start spouting more right-wing ideals. Terrifying.

Date: 2003-07-22 08:41 am (UTC)I don't have one. Sometimes that is the most major pain in the arse, but I closed mine anyway. Why?
well... I just erased a whole rant because I didn't want to hijack your journal. Suffice to say I've had some really bad shit happen with banks, and gotten screwed royally. Basically, I no longer trust the system, so I opted out of it. It's crazy how many people think you are some kind of freak or even terrorist because you don't have a paper trail.
