This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Besides fighting the system, a good solution in cases like this is to find roommates. You can easily drop your rent and utilities cost to a third of what you'd normally pay.

"Easily" seems like a stretch.

Most roommate situations are 2 or 3 people. So that's either half or a third of the cost. I'd call that "easily" yes.

Getting roommates is the part I wouldn't call easy.

If you have absolutely no standards, it’s easy. If you’re trying to filter out the assholes who will make your life hell, then you’re right, it’s not easy.

Roommates that one gets along with.
