The parents who wind up having to kick out their twenty-something kids specifically do not raise their kids. They baby and spoil them, treating them like they're going to be six years old their whole life.

Then 20 comes around, and they're surprised when their kid doesn't have any of the skills they would have needed to function as an independent adult. Eventually they get angry, because they see themselves feeding a thing that will never grow, and then kick the kid out.

Think carefully before you try to make bullshit health claims to collect welfare checks. For one, having anything like that on record will completely destroy your odds of joining your nation's military. And if you saw the pittance that welfare checks offer, you wouldn't be interested in destroying one possible career choice for the sake of some small amount of easy money now. You will permanently close doors on yourself if you try to take the easy way out. At least try to grab some kind of public sector job if you want a simple and stupid source of steady income with high job security. Don't close that option to yourself by trying to make bullshit medical claims for welfare checks. It'll only hurt you worse in the long run.

Ghettos ain't so bad. One of the best places I ever lived was in a ghetto. Rule of thumb is, if you leave them alone, they'll leave you alone. Keep to your own, and they'll do the same. People in the ghetto only get robbed if they have something worth stealing, and the only people that do are the drug dealers.

Honestly though, the worst places are the ones where all the low income rent-controlled housing is. One can avoid those places pretty easily, since it's usually effectively government appointed housing.

Utter crap. Being armed in the ghetto is considered normal, so nobody's going to bust into your place while you're there. Also, people in the ghetto (notice my lack of racial terms, because ghettos are a chunky stew of every color under the sun) don't know fuckall about computers. They'll judge the whole system's quality by the size of the screen and speakers. You could attach a pair of fake subwoofers to a 386 box and they'll think it's gold.

It sucks, but I've been there. It ain't the worst thing in the world. Going homeless actually did a good deal for the depression that made me homeless in the first place.

It certainly ain't for everybody, though. It's not an easy life by any stretch of the imagination. You do spend a good deal of time remembering how to appreciate the things you don't have anymore.

>how to appreciate the things you don't have anymore.

Always hated that line of thought. It's like saying that people should pretend they're fine simply because they don't live in the dark ages anymore.

Nevertheless, that's what happens. With little to occupy your time, the mind wanders, and you remember the times you cooked yourself a good meal, and how you'd do it again if only you had a stove and some food. Or how nice it was to sleep in a bed, that's a big one. Or remembering just browsing /jp/ in comfort.

homeless and yet you still post on /jp/.

living the dream.

>> No.7620454

One of my dreams was to be a wandering hobo and travel up the east coast of Australia spreading joy. I think people would be scared of me though and it obviously wouldn't work out and is stupid.

Really? It worked out well for some people.

I wanted to do that someday as well, but somewhere else. Hobos across the world.

It's ironic you would post that because to outsiders reading about this /jp/ mansion it may sound suspiciously like we want to start some type of perverted sex cult commune.

I look rather like Jesus apparently.

My dream is not to be a hobo, but to live in a forest as a wizard-hermit.

Whoa whoa whoa. You said joy. Not jizz.

I'm scared my Dad might kick me out. ;_;

I can tell that my (new) stepmom is secretly trying to convince him because she doesn't like me.

I'm only 18 and I've put in like 20 applications, but I can't find a job.

Are you calling them back, or are you just letting it rest at putting them in?

That was my dream too. Then I realized being a hobo would be a lot easier than trying to live in the wild alone. I'm just waiting to get booted out of my house one of these days and then my adventure shall begin.

>> No.7620730

I'm going to be kicked out soon too. Any other worthless NEETS on SSI? IF we work together we could actually afford a small apartment, indefinitely. I don't even care if rape is involved, so long as you aren't always doing it.

What about getting to know each other in a really deep and meaningful way, ending with our falling deeply in love?

>> No.7620739

Can we do this without the physical sexual contact? Because I'm pretty dedicated to 2D.

I'm fine with that. Years of being here almost makes that an ideal situation.

>> No.7620745

At this rate /jp/ should form some sort of traveling hobo circus or street gang. We could rob liqueur stores in dresses and have drunken orgies. I-if you want that is. It's not like I care or anything.
