My missus refused to go anywhere near the living room, she was straight up the stairs every night. To be honest, back then I found it quite harmless and funny myself. That, and after I’d been grafting my arse off all day for very little money I couldn’t be arsed to clean-up something which was mostly somebody else’s mess.
!

Ah, cunning plan...

Is La Cucina your preferred pizza place? Seems popular in Lund.

Good on you, and best of luck to you mate.

Re: weed, I’m really wary of coming across as preachy because a) I smoked a lot of it myself when I was younger and b) because I’m the last person to lecture people about vices (I drink waay too much), but try and keep it out of your life if you can.

I’ve seen it send some really brilliant and talented people way off track. To a degree, I think people can function professionally and in the wider world with unhealthy booze habits, but less so with weed. The lethargy, the clouding of thought, the paranoia that tends to come with it seems to be far more consuming. It doesn’t wear off like a hangover does by mid-morning.

Look after yourself. Now is a brilliant opportunity to press the reset button.

Yeah... the weed. Its shitty. I've been smoking for eleven years now, in long periods daily or almost daily.

The few times I've smoked nothing (or very little) for several months, I've had more success in every single aspect of my life than I've had over these eleven years overall.

But as you know... that feeling of not caring about anything and not feeling anything is just a very strong. Smoking alone or with a group of friends, listening to music and just talking shit.

I'm ****ing annoyed that most of my friends, also stoners for the most part, are pro-legalisation of this shit, its like they cant see how harmful it is despite them all having a bunch of issues (often far worse than mine as my psyche is rock hard).

It fascinates me that people are defending their addictions year in year out when there is nothing better than the feeling of having absolutely zero desires, like on occasion for me. Not that I meet a lot of people with this privileged situation nowadays, even if they dont smoke or do other drugs, most own a smartphone...

Yeah I've seen some of those shows (American or English), dont think we have it here though, people would go mad as **** and call it "humiliation TV".

Think my apartment is too small and my situation not as hopeless to fit into a show like that though. I've seen some of those people having a bunch of dead cats and shit beneath all the trash. I'm also not a "hoarder" so
I dont have endless quantities of useless random "things
" laying around, its all just.. waste really.

Plenty of (mostly female) friends have offered to help me to clean up though when they've heard me describe it, even saying it would be "fun", but of course I would never allow them to.

Apart from the 200 Pizza boxes Your having a laugh

Have you considered getting a goat? They eat just about anything and once it has chewed its way through the 200 boxes, you can eat it and eventually you will, in effect, be flushing the boxes down the toilet.

What are you thinking of man? You can’t keep a goat in an apartment block in case it gets nicked by “some Somalians”

They're shit on pizza too, I had one in Afghanistan, the hairs tickle the roof of your mouth, and the hoofs are way too crunchy.

I won't mention the eyes

I want to be really clear that I dont believe the Somalians took the TV. The kiddo who told me he had seen Somalians do it most certainly did it with his brothers (as they've seen me go out without locking many times). Blaming Somalians for some crime you've done yourself is the easiest trick in the book, as they are probably one of the most disliked group of immigrants.

Also, a goat would be nice.

Haha no, I live in Gothenburg since a few years. I have a Spanish friend who works there though, she is nice and slutty.

Ok thanks for sharing [emoji23]

I think you should also email an update on the state of your room to Paul Barber.

On a serious note, I’d strongly recommend a dose of Jordan Peterson. He does excellent lectures on psychology and mindset, and has fairly strong views on why it’s important to clean your room. First thing I thought of when I read this thread:

You can do this Swansman. You got this.

My advice is to keep it simple. If you don't already have a record collection, start getting one together. Once you have a collection start selling it on Discogs or whatever, those pizza boxes are great to cut up and use as stiffeners for the packages you send out. Your pizza box problem should be resolved in about 10 years.

Make these.

Use the boxes, get some free furniture, tidies the squat, provides a diversion from smoking weed, sell the extra 10 chairs - make some cash. Win, win, win, win, win.

The Somalians wouldn’t have taken your TV, it’s not their usual modus operandi, they probably took your ship though.....

They dont fit in the refuse chute nor in my plastic bags, unless I rip them all apart which would be very dirty and time consuming (and I have sort of a phobia of ripping apart that material).

Don't rip them apart. Just work out how they are assembled and then you can easily open them out flat. Then they will be easier to stack and get rid of.

With the fridge, it may be easier to just get rid of it. You should be able to get a decent second hand one with the money you save from not getting takeaway pizzas.
