culture : DO YOU FEEL TRAPPED?

[+] joke ballot by LCD
ACTIVE Wed Jun 11, 08 - Thu Jun 11, 09
I have been hanging around with people who are "houseless" lately, and have been getting some different perspectives.

In a nutshell, they feel that having a house is basically a trap that you get yourself into for 30 years of your most productive life.

Question is, do you feel trapped by the things you own? IE, your house (mortgage payment), car (car lease/payments), your furniture (can't move too heavy) your children (keeps crying for food) and your pet (keep yelping for food)

yea or nay?

Yes I feel trapped
I feel like that sometimes, but not all the time
No way, I feel fulfilled!

COMMENTS:
Yayyy, I'm trapped by things, that make me very, very happy, but I do envy their freedom to wear urine stained trousers. :o)

I tend to find people like that think everything should be free and noone should work...

Clearly delusional.

but you dont need a wife a dog and children to own a house and even homeless people get pregnant. in fact most homeless especially in england tend to have dogs (i assume to eat when they get hungry)

The only thing on your list i have is a car. and its already paid for. my 2 children dont count as they can look after themselves quite nicely. so would I sacrifice my meagre existance to walk the streets secure in my own insecure delusions. I would not no.

Voted : No way, I feel fulfilled!
I don't know if I would say "fulfilled", as there's always things I would love to do later in life. But I won't let having a house, car, pets, or a child stop me.

I do feel comfortable though in knowing that I can go off and do whatever I want and always have a home to go back to.

My in-laws sold their home several years ago and decided to live on the road. They stayed gone much of the year anyway traveling, was my father-in-law's logic. But my mother-in-law, though she loved to travel, hated the thought that all it took for them (or her) to be homeless was a bad wreck and the death of her husband.

They've since bought another home and don't travel as much, so she's much more comfortable now.

Better to be trapped in a house you can invite people to, than trapped in a shitshack apartment, whose rent keeps going up.

lol, for the record, some of these "houseless" people live in bus conversions that costs over a million dollars, so "urine stained trousers" don't apply.

by LCD on Wed Jun 11, 08 11:01pm [+]

Ahh, then we we're misled, and they're not truly homeless. ;o)

A house is bricks and a mortar, a home is what you make it. Houseless they maybe, but I wouldn't say they're truly homeless. Or they WOULD have urine stained trusers, lol.

Besides being able to move your home to a new location, when the neighbours annoy you, I'd still say they were tied to a million dollar home and it's costs. Is it really that much cheaper for them to live in a million dollar bus? you can buy a decent house for a million. I bet my house does more mileage to the gallon too! :o)

Crap! I just noticed you did say "houseless" in the description, lol. Ignore the misled comment. I must have assumed, or dreamt it or somethin'. :o)
