I wonder how many people in the area just assume it's an abandoned house or meth house?

A lot, probably they think the Aerostar, Son-Chu, Honda and Mitsubishi were sold for scrap to pay for meth ingredients (in reality, q-sands, El Agave takeout and other stuff from Ruckersville's various fine dining establishments, vidya, Lipitor, , Snyder's medical bills and Goodwill crap) or were hauled away by Greene County, and that the Cadillac, BMW and Dodge Caravan are dumped stolen cars from Richmond, Staunton, C-ville or other parts of Virginia. I bet people thought normal activity there stopped around the time of Bob's decline.

I bet on Halloween kids dare one another to knock on the door.

I'm not sure, it's a morally grey area to do their chores.

I'm surprised their fridge outside hasn't been stolen yet. Over at my town, a kid left his bike on his porch for five minutes to grab a snack, and the bike got stolen in that time. He's had three bikes stolen in the past several years. Hell, according to statistics, one out of eleven townspeople suffer from property theft. Thing is, our town is considered one of the nicest towns in our state. So how is Chris redneck-shithole of a neighborhood not worse than that?

A bike is a hell of a lot easier to steal than a refrigerator.

Tack onto that the fact that the yard looks like that, and the only person you ever see going in or out of the house is tomgirl Chris. If I knew nothing about Chris other than his yard looks like that and he looks how he does, I would absolutely be genuinely concerned that getting caught trying to steal from him would be like the beginning of my own personal horror movie.

If YOU lived around the Chandlers would YOU willingly take anything from their property? The people who live around them know that house better than we do. Hell, they probably tell their kids to walk on the opposite side of the street from it so they won't be near the filth.

All the vegetation around the house is closing in on it, like nature is trying to reclaim the property or hide the house from view out of embarrassment.

I dunno. My parents were selling an old house last year. They went to go check on the property and found out that some asshat had pulled up a truck and stolen the fucking appliances out of the kitchen. Refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, stove. Gone.

If somebody wanted the fridge, they'd be able to get their hands on it easily enough. Even if they were at home at the time, Chris and Barb would just cower inside, thinking that Clyde or trolls or Koreans with poison food were at the door.

If somebody wanted the fridge, they'd be able to get their MANOS on it easily enough. Even if they were at home at the time, Chris and Barb would just cower inside, thinking that Clyde or trolls or Koreans with poison food were at the door.

But we have, I have to assume, a deeper understanding of Chris and Barb than their neighbors. WE might know that they'd likely just cower and hide. To the uninitiated, though, I could absolutely see tomgirl Chris toddling in and out of that hovel throwing some sort of Leatherface fear into people.

God, can you imagine how surreal it would be? You're some poor-ass Virignia redneck who sees someone left a perfectly good fridge out on their property, and you figure what the heck. When you go to grab it, some fat, blobby he-she comes out, shouting about trolls and thieves, possibly swinging a purse angrily, only to crumple to the ground sobbing when you defend yourself?

 

[Holdek]

Well Ant Queens do have chinas, and we know how Chris gets when thats involved.

BRB, going to trick Chris into thinking I'm a female ant. ]P

I don't think he knows too much of the details about those things. Primarily, Chris got banned because he's being noticeably obnoxious during services.

He wouldn't be playing vidya while service is happening? Or engrossed by his iDea Bookcase? Because that's pretty obnoxious.

I don't really know the specifics, but what you said is definitely a Chris-esque thing to do. Hell, maybe even if Chris was aware that it was a bad thing to do, he might do something stupid like "hmm, yeh, i'll only check my phone once in awhile," but still do it frequently enough to get people to notice and get himself kicked out.

I bet it was him, during "sharing time" or whatever it's called, saying more or less what's in that letter he wrote; probably whining about not having a sweetheart, and maybe even accusing the people sitting around him of not engaging with him on a friendship level. And of course he probably monopolized the time.

So the property value is over $150k? Thats going to be alot of vidya and sex toys when mommy dies!

That may be the appraised value, but it doesn't take into account whatever the inside of the house looks like. They couldn't sell it for that much.

Are you talking about Barb or Chris?

Yeah, it's a tear-down on an overgrown parcel of land, in an area with plenty of spots to build new all along Spring Hill Rd., Holy Hill, or to the east in Barboursville. I hunted around, and couldn't find a good comp. So few homes seem to be sold by owners, so I can't get a realistic value for that area. There are a bunch listed at $150 ~ $200, but they've been listed for 6+ months, and are probably wishful thinking. I'd be shocked if anyone would offer anything close to $100k for the property, especially when it's apparent from the outside they'll need 10 dumpsters, a dozen men, and a few weeks to demo the house and clean up the junk. There are still lingering suspicions that there's a second mortgage on the house, which is something else to account for.

If they do ever manage to sell the property (for whatever reason), I really don't think it'd be a windfall for Chris or Barb. At best, it might mean an extra ten grand in their war chest and/or less liability. At worst, it might be a short sale or foreclosure. Personally, I think it'll take a forklift to get either one of them out of that house, after it's deemed unfit for human habitation or is repossessed.

I really wonder what the second mortgage is all about. You'd figure Bob had everything paid off.

Good lord. Could you imagine being their neighbor? Waking up every morning knowing that the hoard is slowly inching it's way towards you just waiting to consume you and make you one with it.

Is that Barb's version of CWCville?
