I Hate My Condo
May 7, 2008 by DAVE ID
You look at this picture and you’d think it was this awesome place to stay.
Looks great, expensive and well who wouldn’t want to live there right. It’s Philly, on the Delaware River and all that jazz. But just wait.
Let’s begin with global positioning. Just look at this.
I’m 20 minutes of walking away from anything, even a convenience store. So if I just want a bottle of milk, I have to plan to lose an hour or take a cab, movies, same, restaurant, again the same. Very annoying.
One internet access point: We share the condo, we are always away from friends and family, you’d think they be smart enough to supply Wireless Access Points. But then they installed VCRs under the TV. Who the fuck uses VCRs anymore? The battle over HD DVD formats has been won already and I get a VCR in my living room?
Then the condo made room for us and rented whatever furniture they could. I don’t care that my kitchen table is butt ugly, it’s not mine. What I do care about is that my bed is stiffer than a slate of well aligned two-by-fours. I start my day in pain then head to a Cirque du Soleil site where I stand all day in steel-toe boots. Fun.
It’s getting pretty warm here in Philly so the AC is de rigueur. No problem right? Only it sounds like a jet engine when left on and if you put it on auto, sounds like a Harrier Jump Jet taking off or landing.
At this point you say to yourself fuck this shit I’m opening my patio door and letting the fresh air come in instead, well that would be to ease were it not for the fucking heliport on the next peer. FUCKING HELICOPTERS taking off and landing at all times. OH COME ON!
Venting Over
How close to you is the cream cheese factory?
Ha ha ha
Get yourself a little scooter!
until someday i build my perfect/dream home according to my own very specifications/location.
Yeah, no offense but I always thought that building was pretty ugly. Definitely a statement saying you live there though. (I mean I’m sure people are impressed when you tell them)
So are you locked into a mortgage or is there hope for you getting out of that shit hole??
Things could be worse, you could have a trannie-prostitute living above you. Oh wait, that’s me.
No, j/k. .. But yes, yes, REALLY.
I only there for a few weeks while the circus is in town. I’ll be glad to leave the place soon enough.
There he goes, on a f*ck rampage!
Merde. Nuff said.
man, rant all you want, but just don’t fuck with the cops in Philly… holy shit these guys are mental.

And you know all those Free Mumia graffitis in Montreal? The cop he shot was in Philly also.
You can say it, it’s called Dockside. It does look cool, but I heard about that helicopter port. Just think though, if you are here for July 4th you have prime seats for the fireworks.
Damnit! I’ll be in Canada on July 4th, only comming back the week later. That would have been awesome. Now I’m kinda pissed.
