I'm about to move and it's such shit it's making me depressed. I can't find anyone to rent my current place so I might be stuck paying for two places. Packing everything takes so much time. Cleaning up whatever shows behind the furniture for whoever comes next, cleaning up the place we're moving to, disassembling and reassembling some of the larger furniture. Losing whatever few friends I managed to make in a city to go somewhere where I know nobody. Losing access to all the cool places I knew about to go somewhere that seemingly has none of them. Dealing with changing the address on every place that might send me mail, knowing I won't get everything and I'll have to deal with trying to find lost mail after. Trying to find a new vet for my senior dog who needs monthly injections when none of the vets take new clients. Moving is shit.
Do you not normally clean under your furniture or something?
Sounds like you just don't like being an adult. Do you also hate having to go to the doctor or something?
Also, if it's so awful and terrible and miserable, why he hell would you move?
I promise you everyone hates that
You're being kinda rude. Those are legit problems. My move put me in a clearly better place but it took a lot.of work
They're not being kinda rude they're just being rude lol.
"Don't like moving bro? Just pay people money to move your stuff bro, it's so easy and simple are you dumb or something? I did it just fine so that means I'm smart and you aren't."
Like 5th grade level shit
that's a lot of projection, bro.
it is easy and simple, and you don't need to hire movers unless you have shit you can't move yourself.
you're the one trying to 'own' me with memes my man.
think about the absurdity of that, or don't. just reply again with another meme and project more about how i'm fighting with you and how i'm flexing on folks, if it makes you feel good i guess.
we all need our jerk off material.
Wow just steal my earlier comment why don't you. You can just not post something when you've run out of things to say.
You realize everyone has to do this shit when they move? Right? Or do you think your circumstances are particularly difficult and special?
I've done all that, and way more, but I don't regard it as depressing or difficult. But I also don't catastrophize ordinary life events either.
I rarely pull out the oven, fridge, dishwasher, dryer and washer to clean under or behind them, how often would you do it?
I love to go to the doctor but I only get to see them when my health issues get me hospitalized. Last time it was over a hundred gallstones and pancreatitis, doctors told me it was stomach acid until I turned visibly yellow.
And I'm moving because my partner finally found a near minimum wage job in his industry after years of research.
Yeah being an adult kinda sucks.
you should be doing this every few months, especially to prevent mice/bugs. I deep clean my home every 4-6 months. It's like 4-6 hours of work.
you should be going once a year at a minimum, more if you have chronic health issues.
OK, you hate being an adult. That's cool. I don't. I love it. I like cleaning under my fridge because I take pride in having a clean living space.
Keep shadow boxing comments to feel good I guess. And make sure you never stop trying to brag to strangers online about how cool and smart and "adult" you are. And yes, all the people who downvoted you are wrong and you are right, but I'm sure you already knew that ;)
the fact you think i'm bragging about basic adulthood is just wild, and very telling about your mentality. nobody said it was wrong or right, either, you brought that binary to this.
but pretty classic. fedi users seem to think having to like pay for a video game, is some violation of their rights as human beings, so it would track they think basic functioning as a human adult is also a violation of their rights.
