I'm a hikki and I live with my mother who has abused me all my life. She also owns a dog. She makes me walk the dog. Often the bog will go into my room and knock over the garbage can. My garbage can is really cheap and crappy. My mother wants to throw out the can; it's like she's just throwing me out to solve her problem. If she replaces the can like she claims it will take months and will be replaced with an equally inferior model can. I believe this new can is a story she is making up just to get her way and to torture me more. Meanwhile since the dog is so intent on knocking over the can I have decided to leave it that way. Furthermore I will no longer be using garbage cans of any kind and will throw my trash on the floor in no specific area. I feel accomplished with this plan. I don't have to give a shit and my evil mother can continue not to take the trash out and let the dog play in it until the bog eats something poisonous and dies. How is the dead dog my fault if the house is already a hoarder's nest and I can't refill the wiper fluid in the car because the fresh fluid is in the garage behind dog shit and other things that I will break my neck on trying to get to the light switch. All of which has been done by my hoarder abuser mother. Is anyone else giving up on having their waste evacuated from the premises? I fell like a cell in science call that's going to die of living in it's own filth. -- hikisan
