I went with my girlfriend to help clean out her fathers trailer to help him get ready to move and I have never seen anyone live in such squalor. The man has been sleeping on his couch and pissing in the corner because both bedrooms are piled high with boxes of hoarded baseball cards and the bathroom is destroyed. Nowhere to walk. Cobwebs and dead mice and mice poop everywhere. Four dead cars in the yard. Electric drills lying randomly under old magazines strewn all over the place. Knives stuck in walls. A wire tied between two doors holding both shut over piles and piles of seven up bottles and boxed wine. We got a dumpster and started removing mattresses and her sister was like wait we need to separate e waste and goodwill clothing and I wanted to scream bitch this is all garbage. Amidst it all the dad watched from the couch in long underwear and diapers, surrounded by piles of baseball cards, a shotgun, and a revolver tucked somewhere. It was a house where mental illness has been let to fester fir ten years, supported by the GI bill.
