Awwww yeaahh...that's the good shit.

In my very last move with my parents, I almost got to have my dream room - wood paneling, old 70s orange-brown shag with pilling like a lawn in need of mowing, the works. I was staying behind in the old city a month longer than them, but I begged them to keep it exactly as is.

I moved in to find it was replaced with beige, boring carpet, with almost no pill to speak of. I was devastated.

They did you dirty, my friend. I'm so sorry. I will observe a moment of silence for your loss
