Topic: Apartment Neighbors Living Like A Sitcom

I ran across this question on Reddit today and thought you all would like it:

Would you ever consider finding not a roommate, but a neighbormate, with a mutual agreement to live your lives like a sitcom, constantly barging in on each other?
Ever since Seinfeld this idea has really appealed to me. I want a neighbor that just swings my door open and eats my food and tells me about his friend that knows someone who sells mink hats.

Am I crazy? Like pancakes, would this arrangement be all exciting at first, but by the end I'd be sick of it?

Does anyone else find that idea appealing?

One of the top comments was:

I had a landlord that lived next door once. He thought we had this agreement. We didn't.

Here is the link, but most of the comments are pretty inappropriate: link

A fellow redditor; I have wasted many hours there! Did an IamA a few months ago. Seems "landlords" are not that popular :)

When anybody asks me about Reddit, I warn them never to go there. But they always do, and are hooked. So very sad. :)

Don't even get them started on Pinterest...

Regarding Seinfeld...sure, it's a nice idea for a little while, but am I the only one who wants a break from people? My apartment is my sanctuary and I don't want people walking in and eating all my cereal when I'm not there.
