Imagine being mad over reptiles that don't even affect you or live anywhere near your house wtf edit because the more i think about this concept, the more its baffling: like im terrified of spiders but i would never think of trying to get someone evicted bc they kept them as pets?? like that's actually crazy and people need to curb their self importance
Whether you agree or disagree, If you don't protect the right for your neighbors to freely express themselves, your rights will not be protected or respected, either.
Imagine being mad your neighbor has some harmless reptiles that don't affect you yet you have a dog that barks all the time and can do much more damage to you then a ball python.
Yeah I have a bearded dragon and took him outside and this woman had an anoying dog who was loud And she said get that away from me it's going to kill my kids and my dragon is 10 inches
I love it when there is no reptile policy. Way better than our "These ones are big so they are illegal. These deadly venomous ones a perfectly fine though."
My two ball pythons: In enclosures that are self-contained, don't smell, and are content to just be in a single place for their entire life without ever bothering anyone. My one cat: Claws at the walls, rips up the carpet, has poops that can peel paint, meows at all hours in a very pitch that cuts through walls, and makes it his life mission to make sure I never over-sleep for any occasion unless that occasion is a job interview. My lease: No reptiles allowed. Cats welcome! -_-
Walt R. Buck exactly I have an American Staffordshire Terrier and if we lived much closer to the nearest town we probably wouldn’t get to keep her or we’d have to go back to lying and saying she’s a boxer blue heeler mix
@@antonkuznetsov3044 in Saskatchewan, you cannot own a ball python because it's a python and pythons are banned, but you CAN own an American Alligator!
@@LHoriginal i agree. reptiles are less disturbing to others than basically any other pet. why not allow them?? even if they escape bro it’s just a ball python or whatever just pick it up and put it back in the enclosure...
@@cudaee8689 I've spoken to a few landlords about the issue. It's a common misconception that snakes need to be live-fed. Rodents are a huge no-no for most places because of how destructive they can be if they escape. Other reptiles often require crickets or flies of some kind and no one wants a cricket infestation in their walls. The other two concerns have nothing to do with the animals, but rather how they're kept. Aquariums can be super heavy (especially for apartments) and fires due to mismanaged lighting/heating pads aren't unheard of. If you have a paludarium, high-humidity enclosure, or aquarium, the risks of water damage also go way up.
Good thing you got out of that house, bearded dragon infestations can be deadly. edit: I love how this started as a fun little joke and then people started hissing at each other over whether it snows across an *entire state* or not.
It's true, and I heard they love snow, which the Carolinas get a lot of. As soon as winter sets in... They'd be breeding the rabbits out of the hills and eating everyone's cats

Took us 2-3 months to find a place to rent and some of the excuses/replies I got were. • The lamps are a fire hazard. (Like...what? of course lamps are fire hazards...I don't see a rule against someone having 20 standing lamps in their house?) • They will get out and be stuck in the walls and die. (The most common reason and is ridiculous.) • They are venomous. (Legit this person thought all snakes were venomous to some degree.) • Basic fears/concerns about them "free roaming" in the house. Got this question 80% of the time asking if I free roamed them. Some places which said yes, required us to pay a deposit GREATER than a cat deposit. You know... a cornsnake in a tank totally does so much more home damage than a cat's nails.
If you move into an apartment that someone kept reptiles in you probably wouldnt know. If they had cats you would know 9 times out of ten. Even the best kept litter box smell bad.
Totally off topic cause I don’t understand this comment, 10 years ago my moms brother had a snake, he was holding it and it’s slithered away into the walls, then when they grew up they were moving so they were fixing the house, and they found snake a dead snake carcus in the wall, true story my mom told me it. Btw it was his snake- ._.
I got lucky my last apartment didn't care about the reptiles. I paid a deposit for the cats, and even though they had a two pet limit (I have two cats) the reptiles didn't count. Their only stipulation was that I couldn't keep any that had to have water in it (water bowl being fine). But they didn't allow fish at all so that seemed perfectly reasonable to me.
Your neighbors out there acting like you have venomous reptiles that are constantly escaping. But no, they're just paranoid and rude because they dislike reptiles. "Oh no! Those harmless reptiles living in secure enclosures are so dangerous!"

I've been working in property management for 5 years now and when I say that we would all but laugh at someone for complaining about you and your reptiles I mean just that. You seem like a nice responsible person the animals are kept in excellent condition and care. What is there to complain about?
The same happened to me but we had purchased the home and there were no bylaws against keeping exotics. A nosey neighbor with binoculars claimed to see a Cobra and Giant Anaconda. The health inspector was called looked at the collection and how they were kept.We had them all in locked cages in a locked room and all kept clean! He was impressed with the collection and didn't find any reason we should not keep them.He spoke to the neighbors and told them they have nothing to worry about. They than started a petition to have our reptiles removed along with our senior Rottweiler and 11 month Cane CorsoThis went to court the judge said his hands were tied because of the Condo Rules(they changed the rules and also had the City of Elliot Lake pass a new bylaw) We were able to keep the dogs but the judge ordered we remove the Reptiles but did give us a fair timeframe to do so.We sold the home then the collection shortly after it still bothers me after all these years!
You saying the neighbor changed the rules and got a new bylaw passed just for this court case? How did they manage all that in time? Or was it just caused by the petition? In which case, how did the petition get enough support when it was their word against the health inspector's?
@@RyodracoIt was a retirement community and the neighbor spent all her time convincing neighbors. I had a letter from the health inspector and my neighbors from Toronto come to say they never had issues. The petition sealed the deal although it was based on Bullshit!!
Isn’t it illegal to look into someone’s house with binoculars? That’s like total creeper behavior. Why didn’t anyone call that neighbor out for being a complete stalker? People really need to mind their own damn business....
Bruh my old neighborhood didn’t allow snakes. Jokes on them I got one anyway and they never found out lmfao. I also moved somewhere else that doesn’t exactly have restrictions on pets as long as they follow the state and other laws-
I moved to a new house and when we met with the head of HOA they found out I had reptiles and made up a BS rule about no reptiles. Before I moved I searched all over for any restrictions on pets both state county wise and neighborhood wise. Only restriction is I cant breed and sell dogs/cats and cant have farm animals. Says nothing about reptiles. Its my house, and my own business. I still have them and even have bought more since moving in. My realtor who sold us the house and is also a friend said if I get anymore flack from them she will come down and chew them out hard about it.
There’s no way a town can enforce a law that don’t backed up a state law anyway so even if they did try to make a case you’d win and can financial compensation.
My local neighborhood technically didn't allow any "exotic pets," which I think includes anything other than a dog or cat. But for 26 years I lived here with my boa constrictor, just didn't take her out much, except into the backyard, which you can't see into. I kept a low profile. Towards the end of her life I had to take her to the vet a few times, and one or two neighbors saw me transporting a bag that had something alive in it, but if anyone had asked I could have always said I was keeping her for a friend. It really bugs me that people are uncomfortable with harmless reptiles. People should live and let live and mind their own business, imho.
This really makes me wonder how much neighbours actually watch each other, it's pretty creepy. You really need to pay attention to spot someone taking an animal in a container out of their house as it's literally a matter of seconds. People need to mind their own business.
6:35 is a sign of past or current mice infestation. I'm sorry you had to live in a sad, falling-apart house next to ignorant neighbors. I bet they don't care about the abusive dog-breeders in their neighborhoods.
You know what they say, good fences make good neighbors. Bored neighbors will look for anything to fight about, & early onset dementia / similar conditions start with aggressive bs like this. Edit; bad owner, the mice got to the light fixture wiring too, that's why they just covered up the outlet; "you don't need to fix what isn't there..."
I'm terrified of spiders and I would never live with someone who has spiders ... but I don't think I would care if I knew one of my neighbors somewhere owns spiders ... like what are they doing ... everytime they plan to enter a building they first check with everyone inside if they have an animal that they don't like???
Good luck at ending a lease early. Most places will make you still pay until your lease runs out. Hopefully you have a person rather than a company for your landlord.
I already found the early ending papers, either I can find a new tenant or I pay $500 for them to find one and I just pay until somebody else rents it out
That sucks that your neighbors are being difficult but I think buying a house and having a place that you actually enjoy is going to be great. Best of luck with everything and I can't wait to see what the next chapter of GoHerping looks like!
When we moved to my current apartment, my first question was whether they allowed any pets, they said a small hamster cage might be OK, so ofc i now have two giant rat cages that take up half of my room.
This is ridiculous, a dog or a cat is much more destructive and disruptive than reptiles, I can’t believe people are to stubborn to realize how harmless pet reptiles are.
Oh my god I know your pain. I have a single corn snake and was scared to start looking for apartments where my job is. But I was super lucky to find a place that's letting me have my boy and looks amazing
Isabel Goss 1500 is how much some people have to pay to share a bedroom in a 2bdrm apt. I know some folxs who are renting out a room near SF for 1000 and that doesn’t include pge, water, trash and internet. It just depends on where you live in the bay and how many people you’re will to share with.
I’ve met some of these kinds of baboons. I myself am not the biggest fan of reptiles (not scared of them though) but I still find them mildly entertaining.
Small piece of advice for future shelf building projects, adding something like a sheet of plywood to the back of the shelf will brace the whole thing and hold it together alot better than just the side planks and the shelves. Hope that helps 😁
He's so upbeat, calm and blase about everything happening in his situation and honestly I commend him. I'd be STEAMINGLY pissed, cussing, chucking middle fingers every time I made eye contact with someone. And then even the person who wants to send the snake back... for acting like a snake. Uuugh pets are so much better than people.
If it wasn’t for the fact we live in the Midwest and not the big cities we would probably suffer the same harassment for our pit bull mix, people are stupid, hope you find a good place
Pitbulls do account for the vast majority of fatal dog attacks. They are literally bred for aggression and bite force as fighting dogs. I lost a toe to a pit mix as a child, and recently escaped a close call with neighbor’s pit. If I was a landlord, I would certainly not allow renters to own pits, and pit owners in general din’t give themselves a good reputation (bringing their dogs outside the hospital of attack survivors and harassing them)
@@giga4052 The problem with pit bulls isn't the frequency of the attacks or the breeding, it's largely the effectiveness of the attacks and the number of shitty owners. If a cocker spaniel attacks you, it isn't going to do much damage, and owning them doesn't have the same sort of "tough guy" appeal that pit bulls do, attracting people who have no business owning a dog in the first place. The only things pit bulls are bred to be aggressive towards, at least historically, is other dogs. And at least they aren't getting Belgian Malinois. Those things have exactly two modes of operation: dead asleep, and full afterburner. The main reason you don't see that many Malinois attacks is they're far more expensive, and much more strongly associated with police and military forces.
Brayden Kestin any dog can be an aggressive dog it depends on how the dog is raised, if a German shepherd wasn’t raised well and was aggressive you can bet it could easily kill someone
My family has been reported for to our city for having a pit bull. unfortunately for them, that’s not actually against the law where we live. They actually claimed we had 2 pitbulls, but our only other dog is a french bulldog 😂 Pitbulls are some of the sweetest dogs ever if they’re properly taken care of.
@@BibbbidiBobbidi_B00 That simply isn't true. The fact is they were bred for fighting, and the consensus among pediatricians is that you should not leave dogs and small children alone together.
I’m sorry you’re going threw that with your neighbors that’s really unfortunate you have so much knowledge and experience with reptiles no one should have any problem keep doing amazing things so cool to see you grow over the years
Don’t talk about the beardie to them (ofc) and don’t talk about it to neighbors if you don’t know them well. And hide it when the landlord comes. It can be at a friend’s house, or even just put in a closet.
My boa has struck at the glass twice now when just being around both times was when it was time for it to be fed again but I don't see why someone would want to return it for that. My boa is actually really good with handling and has never struck at me while my hand was in the tank or even hissed and will even climb on you from his tank if he is in his exploring mood.
Awesome low key video during a pretty stressful transition. We recently moved and were anxious about how our fish and bear die would be on the long cross state drive and your videos helped us calm down. God bless you for your cool calm chill vibes!
Having just purchased a house, it makes me so grateful to not have to worry about a landlord flipping the switch on reptile policy. Additionally, hearing him talk about mortgaging a home I just realised that eventually some of us will have watched this person grow from a child, to teenager, to adult, and possibly even parent.
The best part about this is that you make enough money to afford a tesla, and 2 houses, but you have no clue how to function as an adult. success in some places, not so much in others

@@franciscoaraujo7644 how can you not have reptiles in a home you literally own?
Isn’t it illegal to look into someone’s house with binoculars? That’s like total creeper behavior. Why didn’t anyone call that neighbor out for being a complete stalker? People really need to mind their own damn business....
@@exoticmutation7410 Condo Corp passed new bylaw along with the City. Mayor and Condo lawyer were friends!!
Bruh my old neighborhood didn’t allow snakes. Jokes on them I got one anyway and they never found out lmfao. I also moved somewhere else that doesn’t exactly have restrictions on pets as long as they follow the state and other laws-
Its lucky that snakes are super quiet.
In all honesty what is a snake going to do? They wouldn’t survive very long where I live anyway so if someone were to set it free-
I moved to a new house and when we met with the head of HOA they found out I had reptiles and made up a BS rule about no reptiles. Before I moved I searched all over for any restrictions on pets both state county wise and neighborhood wise. Only restriction is I cant breed and sell dogs/cats and cant have farm animals. Says nothing about reptiles. Its my house, and my own business. I still have them and even have bought more since moving in. My realtor who sold us the house and is also a friend said if I get anymore flack from them she will come down and chew them out hard about it.
There’s no way a town can enforce a law that don’t backed up a state law anyway so even if they did try to make a case you’d win and can financial compensation.
@@xBloodxFangx as a European, wtf is hoa?
My local neighborhood technically didn't allow any "exotic pets," which I think includes anything other than a dog or cat. But for 26 years I lived here with my boa constrictor, just didn't take her out much, except into the backyard, which you can't see into. I kept a low profile. Towards the end of her life I had to take her to the vet a few times, and one or two neighbors saw me transporting a bag that had something alive in it, but if anyone had asked I could have always said I was keeping her for a friend. It really bugs me that people are uncomfortable with harmless reptiles. People should live and let live and mind their own business, imho.
This really makes me wonder how much neighbours actually watch each other, it's pretty creepy. You really need to pay attention to spot someone taking an animal in a container out of their house as it's literally a matter of seconds. People need to mind their own business.
"theres a huge bulge, UwU" Alex you are KILLING me

It’s moments like this where i wish people would mind their own damn business.

@@cobraanimations6299 ik they are so nosy
welp, if they don't want to see reptiles they can go to Siberia, i heard the gulags are snek free even though noodles are great

Sad.

6:35 is a sign of past or current mice infestation. I'm sorry you had to live in a sad, falling-apart house next to ignorant neighbors. I bet they don't care about the abusive dog-breeders in their neighborhoods.
oh man
I GOT SO SCARED I THOUGHT IT SAID "forced to move out of keeping reptiles".
Yeah me too!
Me too
You know what they say, good fences make good neighbors. Bored neighbors will look for anything to fight about, & early onset dementia / similar conditions start with aggressive bs like this. Edit; bad owner, the mice got to the light fixture wiring too, that's why they just covered up the outlet; "you don't need to fix what isn't there..."
I was thinking of a series for you where you shipped animals rather than unboxed then. Essentially a reverse unboxing
Reptile boxing videos
I'm terrified of spiders and I would never live with someone who has spiders ... but I don't think I would care if I knew one of my neighbors somewhere owns spiders ... like what are they doing ... everytime they plan to enter a building they first check with everyone inside if they have an animal that they don't like???
I also agree with that. I am pretty scared of horses but if someone rides them around I can just avoid them.
1: all of your neighbors are Karens and I hate them.
2: I missed your vlogs so I Iove this
i feel the same way
Karens must be some kind of parasite. they so common theese days

*insert giant paragraph about how it’s dumb to be kicked out for reptiles*
Except he’s not kicked out. He’s been chased out.
Misty K. Still being forced to move out, basically kicked out.
Want a giant paragraph
There's a bearded dragon running around and a snapping turtle in the bathtub. Nice.
Boy, those neighbors are in for a shock when they go outside their house in North Carolina and see snakes in the wild literally all the time.
Nah, I’m sure they never go outside. That’s why they have binoculars, and feel the need to annoy the heck out of Alex for keeping reptiles
you should give your old neighbors a parting gift; 🤩✨lizard poop✨🤩
💖💖😻😻 wowies!!!!!
amazing!
Good luck at ending a lease early. Most places will make you still pay until your lease runs out. Hopefully you have a person rather than a company for your landlord.
I already found the early ending papers, either I can find a new tenant or I pay $500 for them to find one and I just pay until somebody else rents it out
@@GoHerping jesus christ that's a shit deal :( Good luck wish you the best
Should set up a table outside that says “ask me about my Man Eating reptiles”
Thinking of putting up "lost snake" signs when I move out
@@GoHerping lol nice 💯

@@cobraanimations6299 nice
@@GoHerping I support this wholeheartedly
This painting bit is the most stressful part for sure.
That sucks that your neighbors are being difficult but I think buying a house and having a place that you actually enjoy is going to be great. Best of luck with everything and I can't wait to see what the next chapter of GoHerping looks like!
Your Tesla looks GORGEOUS! Love that choice of wrap, literally goals.
thanks! glacial frost if you're looking for the color. it's a cool diy project to do.
@@GoHerping glacial frost is the best my phone sorta has one (huawie p30)
When we moved to my current apartment, my first question was whether they allowed any pets, they said a small hamster cage might be OK, so ofc i now have two giant rat cages that take up half of my room.
hope everything goes smoothly with your move!
This is ridiculous, a dog or a cat is much more destructive and disruptive than reptiles, I can’t believe people are to stubborn to realize how harmless pet reptiles are.
This is 100% why I don’t talk to my neighbors about my personal life/job and completely ignore most of them.
Omg if my neighbour had reptiles i would ask to see the scaley bois daily 😂
Oh my god I know your pain. I have a single corn snake and was scared to start looking for apartments where my job is. But I was super lucky to find a place that's letting me have my boy and looks amazing
"The rent was ridiculous, it was like $1500 a month"
.........*cries in Bay Area*
Omg I own a house and it's about 1300$ a month including bills. Out of morbid curiosity, what is the rent like?
Isabel Goss
1500 is how much some people have to pay to share a bedroom in a 2bdrm apt.
I know some folxs who are renting out a room near SF for 1000 and that doesn’t include pge, water, trash and internet.
It just depends on where you live in the bay and how many people you’re will to share with.
@@katiemoua5766 wow. I only really pay 400$ a month because I'm splitting the mortgage with two other people. I'm so glad to live in the midwest.
I'm in SoCal where it's not much better. I love this state but jfc it's expensive to live here. -_-
You should've given the neighbours a gift basket on the way out filled with crickets or something
Another YTer that keeps sneks has made necklaces using shed snake skin, he could give them some of those, see if they freak out.
Been watching so many reptile videos recently and this guy has the knowledge and passion all reptile owners should have!
Jesus, your neighbours sound like the villagers in a Frankenstein movie!
lol so true man
You make me feel better about my furniture building and painting skills. Looking forward to the next video!
why do u have to go through so much stuff that's a hard pain in the ass. ur so nice and ur reptiles do no harm
Yes Alex. We need more of this in our lives.
Alex: "I'm at a point where I need all the time I can get."
Also Alex: Pauses to vlog everything he does.
It's his job....he needs money to buy a house and pay the penalty for ending a lease early.
@@melodiesoflegend Yeah I know... just thought it was funny.
It really must be nice to be able to do 1500 a month for a whole house. In California 1500 will barely get you a one bedroom bath apartment
Ain’t that the truth
My bf lives in a two bedroom with roommates and $1500 is his half of the pay. I know a one room apartment here is $1800 a month
Rascal2237 California rent is absolutely through the roof. You can barely find a decent roof to put over your head.
WillowsWhispers hard truth 😪
Why neighbors so scared that a reptile gonna get out knock on their door and get bit
I LOVE how old school youtube his content is. No bull shit just his sharing his passion with us. That's all you need. Passion.
I’ve met some of these kinds of baboons. I myself am not the biggest fan of reptiles (not scared of them though) but I still find them mildly entertaining.
My landlord came to my house and saw my reptiles. She has an iguana so she was super happy when she saw them. So glad she let me stay.
"There were cockroaches everywhere" That's what your lizards are for. All they can eat buffet
yes! although i think wild ones could carry diseases
Yes to more of this content. I would love to see the process.
"theres a huge bulge uwu"
The one person I did not expect to say that LMAO
Olav Smedvik when was that?
simplyalaska 8:21 LOL.
You obviously haven’t seen his Twitter lol
Small piece of advice for future shelf building projects, adding something like a sheet of plywood to the back of the shelf will brace the whole thing and hold it together alot better than just the side planks and the shelves. Hope that helps 😁
EXCUSE ME I SAW THE VIDEO TITLE AND FREAKED
DAMN
I am honestly blown away at how people have reacted to what you do smh you're great and you're doing something terrific by educating people
Alex: can build a sick, fully custom enclosure for any reptile or amphibian
Also Alex: “I can’t build” “painters are crying”
“They forgot & I was to anxious to ask again...” if that is the most precious 🥺😭
I clenched my butt when he opened the paint
All I could think about was the carpet...
He's so upbeat, calm and blase about everything happening in his situation and honestly I commend him. I'd be STEAMINGLY pissed, cussing, chucking middle fingers every time I made eye contact with someone. And then even the person who wants to send the snake back... for acting like a snake. Uuugh pets are so much better than people.
If it wasn’t for the fact we live in the Midwest and not the big cities we would probably suffer the same harassment for our pit bull mix, people are stupid, hope you find a good place
Pitbulls do account for the vast majority of fatal dog attacks. They are literally bred for aggression and bite force as fighting dogs. I lost a toe to a pit mix as a child, and recently escaped a close call with neighbor’s pit.
If I was a landlord, I would certainly not allow renters to own pits, and pit owners in general din’t give themselves a good reputation (bringing their dogs outside the hospital of attack survivors and harassing them)
@@giga4052 The problem with pit bulls isn't the frequency of the attacks or the breeding, it's largely the effectiveness of the attacks and the number of shitty owners. If a cocker spaniel attacks you, it isn't going to do much damage, and owning them doesn't have the same sort of "tough guy" appeal that pit bulls do, attracting people who have no business owning a dog in the first place. The only things pit bulls are bred to be aggressive towards, at least historically, is other dogs.
And at least they aren't getting Belgian Malinois. Those things have exactly two modes of operation: dead asleep, and full afterburner. The main reason you don't see that many Malinois attacks is they're far more expensive, and much more strongly associated with police and military forces.
Brayden Kestin any dog can be an aggressive dog it depends on how the dog is raised, if a German shepherd wasn’t raised well and was aggressive you can bet it could easily kill someone
My family has been reported for to our city for having a pit bull. unfortunately for them, that’s not actually against the law where we live.
They actually claimed we had 2 pitbulls, but our only other dog is a french bulldog 😂
Pitbulls are some of the sweetest dogs ever if they’re properly taken care of.
@@BibbbidiBobbidi_B00 That simply isn't true. The fact is they were bred for fighting, and the consensus among pediatricians is that you should not leave dogs and small children alone together.
I’m sorry you’re going threw that with your neighbors that’s really unfortunate you have so much knowledge and experience with reptiles no one should have any problem keep doing amazing things so cool to see you grow over the years
Alex: "Painters are shaking and crying as they watch this"
Me: having a freaking seizure
So sad, I’m very sorry and I hope you find a comfy home. You always make informational videos and make me laugh.
I might have to move, since our landlord said one dog under 50 pounds, and I just got my beardie a week ago
I have a 53lbs dog, just say he's 45 lbs and "fluffy"!
To be fair, a beardie is not a dog.
just lie lol, how often do you let your landlord into your home
Don’t talk about the beardie to them (ofc) and don’t talk about it to neighbors if you don’t know them well. And hide it when the landlord comes. It can be at a friend’s house, or even just put in a closet.
Your skin looks amazing with the filter, Alex. Beautiful.
My boa has struck at the glass twice now when just being around both times was when it was time for it to be fed again but I don't see why someone would want to return it for that. My boa is actually really good with handling and has never struck at me while my hand was in the tank or even hissed and will even climb on you from his tank if he is in his exploring mood.
Awesome low key video during a pretty stressful transition. We recently moved and were anxious about how our fish and bear die would be on the long cross state drive and your videos helped us calm down. God bless you for your cool calm chill vibes!
8:18 "there's just, there's a huge buldge ᵘʷᵘ"
You did SO good on the wrap wow
Trying to find a apparent will be hard and that’s what I am scared about.
Having just purchased a house, it makes me so grateful to not have to worry about a landlord flipping the switch on reptile policy.
Additionally, hearing him talk about mortgaging a home I just realised that eventually some of us will have watched this person grow from a child, to teenager, to adult, and possibly even parent.
Ok so we just gonna ignore that whole scary attic thing.. sure..
With every shelf that fell I experienced joy at your neighbors who tried to get you removed having to listen to it.
Start leaving those rubber snakes in the awful neighbors' yards.
Your vlogs are one of my favorite types of videos!
Sorry for how close-minded people are! I’d be cool with you living nearby...no clue why some people are such wimps.
Keep doing these vlogs for sure. It's some wholesome quality content.
Alex: "The rent is so ridiculous it's $1500 a month for this whole house"
Me in my 7ft × 15ft apartment in Brooklyn that's $1200 a month: "lol"
Right? $1500 for a whole ass house is a steal.
I live in a ghetto ass apartment for 1450. California is a rip off.
Love these kinds of blogs Alex 🧡 I’m moving out for the first time so this was convenient and comfy to watch as I pack everything
Dogs can reck a house worse than reptiles reptiles are usually in a cage
I love cat wake up sounds. Sooo cute!
The best part about this is that you make enough money to afford a tesla, and 2 houses, but you have no clue how to function as an adult.
success in some places, not so much in others
Really liked this video tbh, I love seeing ur personality in these vlogs
I was turned down by a landlord once for asking if my bearded dragon could live there...
Definitely looking forward to the new house tour!
in the future, a Magic Eraser will remove door scuffs
Good luck with the move!
