Resident 2008

Roaches and Noisy Kids

Okay, here's the real deal on this place. At first you're thinking it's great to be so close to the Metro, the place looks decent, this might work. Well, you might want to think it over a bit. It appears that most of the people who live in the complex are barely out of the college dorm, and they like loud music and lots of bass, probably because they have deafened themselves with Ipods. They're kind of loud in the halls and every other word is "like" or "seriously." The complex is surrounded by expensive homes, but don't be deceived; residents there can be just as obnoxious as residents here. Several houses in the neighborhood are basically like frat houses and are occupied (rented) by affluent kids that drink beer, smoke blunts, make lots of noise and have the kind of stupid drama one sees on shows like The Real World on MTV. Now, I know kids will be kids and they may grow up someday, but right now they can really chap one's ---. One of the neighbors runs a food cart, and probably does a fair amount of prep work in his apartment, which possibly contributes to the roach problem in the building. He keeps an upholstered sofa on his patio and lets the rain get to it, maybe for some kind of mold experiment he's doing. You can see green s--- all over the side of it, but in fair weather he and his girlfriend can be seen wallowing on the couch sunning themselves, oblivious to the mold and mildew. And he's always listening to loud, cheesy music in his apartment. He's trying to run a business, and might be all right if he grew the f--- up and realized there are other people in the world, but like most of the youngsters hereabout he simply isn't there yet. Sigh. The place is crawling with roaches. There's an old lady next door who apparently keeps them as pets and refuses to get her place treated. (As I say, it appears most residents are kiddies but there are a few creakers here too.) The filthy little things are in the walls, and even though I am fastidious and have a cleaning service, I have little unwanted guests scurrying around my kitchen. Even though the place has a no-pet policy, cats can be seen in windows from time to time and no doubt leave traces of their filthy selves in the apartments, but of course the selfish little adolescents don't care if the next tenant has allergies. So in fair weather a cat can enjoy the sun and licks its balls serenely. Basically, you probably won't like it here unless one or more of the following apply to you: a) you're a selfish, obnoxious kid and think you're uber urban cool when you're really just a little sheep who's just like all the other like-likes ("like seriously like like whatever"), b) you love listening to other people's bass THUMP THUMP THUMP all the time and never need quiet because you aren't capable of coherent thought anyway and need a stream of gaudy American pop culture blasting 24/7, so if an ------- neighbor cranks the tunes you just turn up your f------ TV, c) you're a shriveled old relic, are deaf as a post, and don't know your --- from last Tuesday, and/or d) you're into bugs. Total suckage. That's how I see it.
