How can you feel fully free and at home in a place where you can't even jump around just for the shit of it, blast abrasive music, just being your noisy self, without having to worry about bothering others?

You honestly can't. You have to put everyone else into consideration no matter what you do or you'll end up with noise complaints and angry neighbours.

Honestly, living in apartment complexes for years also gives me anxiety whenever I'm "too loud" - even if it's just dropping something by accident. I don't want my neighbours to know where I currently am in the apartment or what I'm doing. I also don't want to know where they are, judging by their stomping etc etc - you maybe get what I mean.

I've been through both sides of the fence. When you complain about the person next or above you, that can be awkward.

Blinds suck - both the horizontal and vertical kinds.

They always have a gap on the side you can see in through.

I can't operate blinds to save my life.
 
It really sucks how bad scam calls have gotten. Pretty much every call is a scam call now, and it's ruining legit calls by making people wary. They also lead to more bureaucracy, as endless scammers means more security needed.

And almost every call being a scam call certainly doesn't help to counter any misanthropy one may feel. One may wonder just how many assholes are out there who are trying to scam people.

I also mess things up trying to use them. Blinds really were a sucky idea.
 
It's been a month since I did my taxes, and I still haven't gotten my refund. Pay up, Joe!

In general, if I get a call from a number I don't recognize, I don't answer it. This caused me to miss my doctor's office calling to schedule an appointment.

They're not that bad. The issue is that you have to buy costly ones because the cheap variety are frail.

Get the ones that open depending on how far you twist the knob? Elongated stick? It opens the blinds regardless.
 
When you leave a job and all the lifers there take it as a personal offense you’re leaving. Had one say to me on my last day in that “I’m joking but not really” tone “we’re not good enough to work with anymore?”

Sorry I’m moving on to better things instead of being satisfied working for peanuts. Sorry your lazy ass might actually have to work for your money instead of goldbricking
 
When I'm out on a run and motorists start honking at me, even though I'm on the sidewalk. That's not cute and I don't want your attention, assholes, knock it off.

How do you know they're honking specifically at you instead of the asshole that cut them off or didn't use their turn signals?
 
When I hear my older siblings blast their music late into the fucking night when I'm trying to go to sleep. News flash: maybe you don't care about waking early to attend stupid online classes, but I do. Already missed a lot of Zoom meetings earlier in the year and I'm not trying to screw things up further.

And do you have to do that shit when you're taking a fucking shower?
