Discrete charm of the enraged petty bourgeoisie.

Landladies and landlords, grasping, bitter, ambitious to enrich themselves but certain someone, somehow, is fucking them over. Cheap, dishonest, contemptuous of laws. Laws are a game for the gullible. Racist. Ignorant. Alcoholic. Incompetent. Dumb. Small.

Years and years, one encounter after the next.

How will this new experience evolve? Early suggestions are not encouraging.

Eventually I'll have to buy something. Inevitably an all new constellation of discouraging relationships.
