Hey, this hoarder can get a clean start on hoarding all over again.

Most hoarders could recycle their way to a vacation or new car if given enough Xanax.

I guess he won't be sojourning with Pharaoh in the next world, then. Sad.

there was over two feet of crushed beer cans in the living room

More liek a beer can swimming pool, subby.

Amateur. He needs to step up his architectural skills and make a beer can castle. Um, I guess he can do that in his next house.

"Hey knock that shiat off! That's my beeramid!"

"We need to put out the fire!"

"Go around!"

Nearly 1,000 bottles of beer on the wall
Nearly 1,000 bottles of beer
Take one down, pass it around...
Ummm, I guess that's still nearly 1,000 bottles of beer on the wall, isn't it?

My boyfriend is a volunteer firefighter and once every couple of years they get a call to the same shack of a house where a hoarder lives. Her house catches on fire, the firemen rush up the hill and put it out. She makes slapshod fixes to it and moves in again despite the fact that it's in condemnable conditions. Apparently her house had actually been torn down completely after one of these fires but she got some redneck relatives to come over with tools and they built her another house which burned up again. The county has tried intervening a couple of times but it's a rural area so they just decided to let her be and the fire department is just waiting for the day where she just up and croaks so they can stop having to "save" her "house".

Lisa: [reading from the pamphlet] The Duff Beer-amid contains so much aluminum it would take five men to lift it. 22 immigrant laborers died during its construction.

Rookie. Call me when you get to 70,000 cans.

1000? Did I miss the weekend party?

Done in one.

I'm surprised more hoarder's homes don't burn down from being a natural fire hazard.

That equates to 24 cans a day. I know of a gentlemen who purchases and consumes 24 cans of Steel Reserve a day.

Damn, that's the alcohol content of 48 cans of Bud. He must despise his liver.

Not in my book. I'm thinking of printing this article out so I can show people somebody's place is worse than mine.

Grab a shovel, I've got T-bones defrosting in here someplace. But don't move the miscarried kittens, they're to feed the two raccoons who moved in then they chewed through my old Penthouse collection.

If he lived in Michigan where they have the 10 cent returnables, that could have been their retirement fund.

1,000 cans is only $100. I've seen people do two or three times that.

In high school I had more than that in the trunk of my car.

I'm probably not a good example.

He's late 50's/early 60's. Lives off huge disability.

Well, now his collection is ruined. I mean, who likes warm beer?

It's past tense so "was so much" is still making my head hurt just from reading it.

So, TFA's past tense is making your present tense?

Mikey1969: He's not a "hoarder", he's a college student, or just a dude who lives near campus. It's a constant party, and this guy is just keeping up with the 'I'm a cool ragin alcoholic' theme.

It's easy to clean up after a rager like that, just get a push broom and a snow shovel.

Beer Can ? (new window)

But how many beers died?

Yeah, about those raccoons.... those are lightweight pests. I got a friend that had an adult Possum take up residence in his garage last year. Sort of a huge rat-like thing that just eats the cat's food and pretty much smells up the house.
Thing they don't tell you about possums is those farkers are mean.... they fight back.
As in all infestations, this one was terminated with extreme predjudice.
And yes, that does mean automatic weapons fire.
Well, maybe not full automatic. Lets just say there was no chance of the possum fighting back. He was ventilated, as it were....

But Drew only spent one night there.

I have a dear friend who is a hoarder and not a day goes by when I don't think about her house going up in flames. A bunch of us have tried getting her to address it, but she totally seizes up at the mere mention of tidying things up.

Is subby high? Where in TFA does it mention "nearly 1,000 cans"? They don't mention "nearly 1,000 cans" in the video either. 1,000 empty cans would not have prevented anyone from entering. Stacked in a neat pile it would be about the size of a modest filing cabinet, not much of an obstacle. My cat would be able to blast straight through that during one of his hyper episodes.

If there were empty cans knee-high in this house, there would have to have been at least several dozen thousand cans lying around.
