I work for a company that puts me into people's homes and have seen hoarders from time to time.

They aren't always in the guise of madness, but for some it's just losing the ability to clean because of ailment.

The hoard takes a life of its own...and while the hoarder never digs into it, the poor cable guy or plumber digs in...

basically, all your reality becomes a kaleidoscope of flavours and smells as you rummage deeper into the pit. Cherry? no, Dr. Pepper.

death lurks around every pile of socks and cigarette ashes. Literally, it stinks and you almost put your hand in it...

but like the great Indiana you come across something awesome. Treasure for the intrepid. Classic playboy magazines on a trap spring, or a snes in the box.

Always remember, anon. The hoard has eyes, and a life of its own! THE OWNER WILL KNOW, HE WILL ALWAYS KNOW.

don't be fooled by treasures treachery! and wear gloves.

Damn, do you know about any issues he might have? They usually have abandonment issues of some kind.

I knew one girl who had shit stacked up in her room.
just random shit and a bicycle and like an ironing board. there was a little path in the junk for us to get through. Oh, and of course she had room for her wig collection.
Once she got a boyfriend and she wasn't treated like a sack of shit to be stored away things were better.

this is true. I was a slight hoarder growing or at least my rooms were pretty cluttered. Once I moved out form my shitty parents into my first apartment with my first bf and experienced some actual calmness and happiness I became a total minimalist.

very few viruses or bacteria can survive longer than 24 hours in a syringe or on a needle. if its been there longer than 24 hours, its not any dangerous than a sharpened pencil or broken glass.
