What's with all the Sketchy people on LI? (Smithtown, Valley Stream: section 8, rent)

Sketchy homeowners Island wide are building sketchy illegal apartments for sketchy tenants.
Other sketchy homeowners are renting out their unsellable sketchy house to sketchy tenants while they move out of state.

Why stop at having "sketchy houses" with "sketchy tenants" Karl? Perhaps we should just bulldoze the houses and put a few trailers on each of their lots.

So sketchy will be the new normal on Long Island?

So I don't have to be afraid to move to Oregon anymore (I was afraid because 85% of the property crimes there are committed by methampethamine addicts) as the meth heads will be coming to ME here on LI?

Thanks. People USED to come to NY to make money. Now they are coming to be as sketchy as they are everywhere else in this crappy country!!!! NO! Stay out losers!

Ick! I am thinking of moving to a mainly English speaking country that is not too cold. Looked into Australia and found out they have a massive meth problem so might as well stick with fly over country if I want that. Or maybe save up and move to India, buy a house in a gated community or a doorman high rise and live off my investments. There I can have servants to do my bidding for the equivalent of around US$25 a month each. Over there they all love me for my ultra fair complexion, "sharp features," and blue blue eyes and the fact that I am not short and when you look at me from the neck down you can tell that I am not a pre-adolescent boy (unlike many of the scrawny women there). Seriously. I am hot as a Bollywood goddess over there. Hmmm. I wonder is there such a thing as a male concubine in India? Cause I could afford a few if there are ... Oh this is getting O/T ... where was I ...

Railing about "sketchy people" ... on my block anything sketchy is reported to the Village Mayor's Office. Seriously. I have them on speed dial. They rush to action super quick if I suggest me coming in to personally meet with them to discuss the matter! Hehehe. Wonder why? Plus being friends with the mailman lets me send out anonymous missives for free directing my neighbors on how they should behave with couth and decorum at all times. That is one of the reasons I don't move ... because there might be sketchy people already in the area and since I would be the new kid on the block I couldn't push them around. Or if I moved to a really great neighborhood I could be considered the sketchy new neighbor ... Heavens! Anything but that!

Do not let go of this thought, it is possible you might eventually end up there.

It would be perfect if I could have a little cottage in R.P. so I would be able to leave India for a few months when it's monsoon season and when it's too hot ...

I think it'll be alot sooner than that. If I were to leave the U.S. I'd go to Canada.
