In which the county with the most expensive rent in California encounters a homeless person posting on their subreddit
My fiancé and I have been looking for a place to live in Orange County and it seems pretty much impossible. Granted, we don’t make a whole ton...
try not being poor and homeless +58 karma
[OP] I'm sorry -58 karmareddit in a nutshell
They're not even poor! The two of them together almost make 100k a year!!
Ew poors
haven't you heard? that's actually poor in california.
100k a year... and homeless??? What the shit is going on with this country?
For some reason all the local city subreddits are absolute cesspools of fascist pus-drooling ghouls coming as close as they can to dropping a hard R without getting banned
That's 90% of Reddit in general though
All the landlord types out there gravitate towards local/city subreddits.
The thing that gets me is that every response OP is making is being downvoted into oblivion, and then I click on them expecting them to be him making excuses or cussing people out and it's just... him saying thank you and politely explaining that none of them have bad credit scores?
This just further cements the fact that I need to get the fuck out of this state. It's no wonder I'm so lonely, all of my neighbors are soulless ghouls.
You know you’re the bad guy when honesty and kindness starts sounding like hostility and sarcasm.
It’s impossible because you’re trying to get a 2 bedroom apartment off of only 2 financial contributors. Tell your cousins to get a job or live elsewhere.
it's impossible because you think that working and making what would be a decent living anywhere else should even cover the cost of one bedroom, get real kiddo
All the smug dipshits telling them how cheap it is in the midwest (or further inland in CA) makes my blood boil. Yes, move to south dakota, then you can be in basically the same situation, but making so much less money that the lower rent barely fucking matters

What do these kinds of people expect a couple with a child to do lol? Welp, she can walk and talk now - pretty sure she can go work in the Amazon warehouse at this point.
The utter fucking insanity of saying "your problem is you're looking for a living space intended to house 2 people with only 2 incomes"
Reminds me of the
redditors that will find a house online in rural Arkansas and say that if you're homeless you should go there, never asking why the house is priced at 40k.That's the same argument people on here make about how there are 3 homes in the US for every homeless person.
goddamn lizards
"I hate to break it to you, but you are unattractive renters. Sounds like you need to lose some baggage, and by baggage I mean pets and family members."
- guess your grandparents should have moved here in the post-war housing boom with a job working for an aerospace contractor, where they could get a 5 bedroom house for $35k like mine did. then your parents should have spent the 80s and 90s buying up shitty rental properties to gift to their kids as passive income. you need to earn your place here
Lmao. Literally every comment chain descends into people bragging about commuting for hours daily. What is wrong with Californians.
Sorry hunny, but if you want to live in the community you were raised in then you'll need to stop smoking, murder your pets, abandon your family, and spend >12 hours a day working/commuting.
Unfortunately people are complacent about it. I've known a ton of people who've lived all over the inland empire and are willing to drive 2ish hours a day to work in LA just because they want their own house with a lawn.
I've known someone that lives as far as apple valley and works in Pasadena and makes this trip both ways 6 days out of the week. It's insanity.
Threads like that genuinely have me here like "no, I don't have any kind of solidarity with white moneyed up amerikans, when the collapse comes, I'm going to laugh in their faces and make the new scrubby life they inherit as miserable as fucking possible." I don't even want to uplift the mfs any more. I just want getback.
they literally just triggered all the smuglord buzzwords at once by mentioning smoking, living with family (ew gross multi generational living what are they peasants?), calling their current place a crack house, etc. If they phrased this all differently the replies would be 100x more sympathetic (but still full of liberal smuglordness I'm sure)
Next thread: why are all the stores/restaurants/literally any actual business that’s not my bs $300k emails job not able to find enough workers??? No one wants to work anymore 😠 😠
Redditor ghouls: "if you wanted a place to live you shouldn't have gotten pets or started smoking".
To be clear, all of these people should be in reeducation camps to learn the basics of empathy and humanity.
These people need to be beaten to within an inch of their lives.
Location based sub
s are even more 
than as a wholeOrange County is the most soulless place on earth
"just commute you poors"
Even inland good like finding a 2 br for less than $4k/mo. Shit is fucked right now, I had a pretty good hookup with a friend who had inherited a house but once that died I had to move back in with my parents despite having a stable income around $50k.
I’m from the OC originally and I fucking hate it. Honestly it sucks that there are communities of decent people trapped in that hellhole.
Serious question: has anyone tried DMing these poor souls and tried to dispense some consolation and truth? Would that work on bootlickers trained by the cesspool?
"attractive renter totem pole" oh - I didn't realize I actually had a Berserker-mode activation phrase but turns out THAT is it.
