House Hunting. Actually, it's more suburb hunting.
Flemington:
pooroldjefflee: It's a kinda shit suburb. Which I think is good, because all the drug suburbs are becoming trendy, and this isn't quite a drug suburb, so it's not in danger of being trendy any time soon.
SQUARE SPROCKET: I take it lack of trendiness is a priority.
pooroldjefflee: Well if I'm going to buy a scooter, I earn about 50 trendy points, which I'll need to offset with living in a non-trendy suburb if I don't want to end up spending all my time dining in smog-side cafe's wearing a beret whilst sipping my never ending latte.
pooroldjefflee: (I don't like pretentious losers near me. I'd much rather have genuine losers. They have better tales to tell)
SQUARE SPROCKET: haha
SQUARE SPROCKET: very true
Footscray:
pooroldjefflee: I've lived in Footscray before. It's a real shithole, but it's a cheap shithole.
pooroldjefflee: Lots of food, drugs, unmade roads, close to the city, strange locals. VERY strange locals.
SQUARE SPROCKET: I like the other better
pooroldjefflee: I think I do too, but this would be easier to get to work from I think.
pooroldjefflee: Although, with a scooter, it probably doesn't matter.
SQUARE SPROCKET: youre going to ride to work on a scooter?
pooroldjefflee: Damn right I am
pooroldjefflee: I can use the tollways and not get tolled!
SQUARE SPROCKET: wow
pooroldjefflee: hm?
SQUARE SPROCKET: Kate Ferencz: hm?
pooroldjefflee: !
