I'm kind of lucky I didn't get shot today doing something risky in my neighborhood. (hexbear.net)

I was walking back from the gas station and the cold was already in my lungs and I just wanted to get inside and warm up and then I saw...my neighbor from hell walking down the hill towards me. He didn't see me so I darted behind someone's house, then cut through two backyards up to my house. Now I say I'm lucky because no one was home at those 3 houses, and my ass could have potentially been shot by some unhinged boomer who keeps a shotgun by the door.

My neighbor sucks and when he's drunk (which is all the time) he doesn't respect your time and tries to talk your ear off about how evil "Mexicans" are and how his life is shit because his license got taken away for multiple DUIs.

Suburbs suck.

America especially sucks. Where my parents live which is for sure suburbs there's the street the live around that then curves around to a other but there's also a weird turn off into a third street wedged between the two. People get lost looking for the third street all the time or people who live in the area just dont wanna walk all the way around. The people who don't have fences between the backyards are ones that are cool with you cutting through to get to the next street. Cause who tf cares? We had strangers pass through our backyard all the damn time, I made some friends as a kid that way. We were probably safer cause we had neighbors passing through our yard all the time when we were asleep or away.
