Nah. Maintenance inspections and tenancy inspections are two separate things. A lot of places require regular testing of certain things (especially smoke detectors) and landlords will often hire a company to test all of their properties at the same time. It usually takes a few minutes if everything is OK. I've never seen maintenance inspectors give the slightest shit about anything other than what they were sent to test. It does ping the landlord's radar if a tenant refuses to let the maintenance people do the inspection, though. That's often a sign that something bad is happening.

I think you've been watching too many Youtube videos made by Section 8 slumlords. In many cases, those places they were renting out already were broken-down shitholes, but they want to scapegoat the former tenant for the damages & filth.

Not at all, fam. I'm speaking from personal experience and observation. And as I said, it has NOTHING to do with class. I had a buddy in high school who came from a very wealthy family and went through four different cars from the time he turned 16 to graduation, including a suped up '69 Boss Mustang. Each time he basically shrugged and said "Eh, dad'll get me a new one by the weekend. I'll tell him I want a Porsche 911 next." And he got it too. He's an extreme case and his folks finally wised up after he blew the engine of his sixth car and they told him he had to find a job and pay for the repairs himself, but it still stands that he didn't appreciate what he had because he didn't earn it, and he isn't the only person I've met with that kind of attitude. Growing up an only child I had a similar attitude about things, and I don't come from a privileged wealthy family. It took until I was well into adulthood to overcome that kind of attitude and start to appreciate the value of the things I have.

I'm not going to waste my time going on some long powerleveling rant, I'm just going to say that on or two bad families can completely destroy a low rent apartment complex and make the entire area seem like an unlivable dumpster. You don't notice 99 shiny apples, you notice the rotting one covered in fruit flies.

Phil is probably surrounded on most sides by people who had legitimate bad luck, and are legitimately trying to work to fix things, all while wondering why their apartment smells like unwiped ass and moldy feet, not realizing they're literally smelling this lazy spoiled mentally defective's unwiped ass and moldy feet.

What gives you the impression Phil is surrounded by welfare cases? His neighbors could just as easily all be hard working people who earn what they have and have never been on the dole. He's in a regular apartment complex, not a welfare tenement.

Keep in mind that there are a lot of people on Section 8 and food stamps who also have jobs. Pretty shitty walmart type jobs with low pay and zero medical benefits. The Walton family are screwing the American taxpayers hard by expect us to pick up the slack.

I'm not discounting what you're saying, fam. We've all got our own opinions and life experiences that form the basis for those opinions and our world views. Yours is just as valid as mine. I'm merely voicing that my personal experience has been different. Take from it what you will.

The government providing housing for a single mother and her child is not comparable to a 16 year old getting a Porsche. I'm sure that guy you grew up with is a total dick. No doubt. But let's look at the facts here.

Phil has never had a Porsche and he's way more entitled and spoiled than your buddy who crashes cars. If you gave Phil one you know he'd bitch about it.

I completely agree. Even though Walmart gives you benefits when you work full time for them they also pull the "We can only give you 35.5 hours a week" con. It's extremely shady and they're not the only company that does this for that exclusive reason.

Phil isn't really comparable to Sect. 8's who are actually trying to improve their lot in life. He doesn't deserve assistance because he makes zero effort to support himself. He's completely capable of working but his entitlement issues and downright laziness give him no reason to want to do anything beyond whining about stuff. He's purposefully sabotaged his ability to be self supporting by getting shit tons of tattoos that not only look like they were done in Crayola but also are specifically designed to offend.

I don't even think he wants housing to a certain extent. His entire existence has been based around how bad he's getting repressed and how tough life is for him due to things he's totes not able to fix for realsies. Getting an apartment was a short lived "victory over cis scum and Kiwi Farms" moment for him but beyond that it hurts his identity and gets him less asspats.
 
Phil attempting to set up future ebegging for vegetarian food because Toren won't pay for it.

So um, what does not eating meat have to do with having surgery? Don't a lot of vegetarians fail to research alternate protein sources and end up really low in B12 -- so wouldn't it be backwards? That those horrible cis surgeons were forcing him onto a cruelty diet just to get his (nonexistent, not happening) acorn inversion?

There's no reasoning here at all. It's just that Phil's latest batch of attention whoring has failed to get him any money so he's trotting out a bunch of old lies he hasn't used in a few months. Remember the last time he went vegan while still eating cheeseburgers and tacos every day?
 
I know Phil thinks no one is quite as clever as he is, but has it not occurred to him that most people are aware that no form of surgery requires you to go veggie? It sounds like he got his lies crossed in a moment of stress. "I need money for going vegetarian, because vaginoplasty! 5+ fucking years!"

There's some internet belief that eating meat causes vaginal odours. (I have no idea if this is true.) I wonder if this is what passed through the valley of death than is Phil's psyche, without him obviously twigging that what surgery gives you isn't a TRUE AND HONEST vagina and therefore you can't expect it to behave like one.
 
He may have been told he needs to lose weight before surgery is even a remote possibility, and this is his half assed attempt to do so.
