They often do, because they lack the courage to show the world their inner ugliness. Only through code and situational implication can they allude to what they hide away.
They’re in the closet. It’s a beige closet painted with a cheap sprayer, using bottom tier paint from a big box store. If it had wooden shelves, trim, or hardwood floors, they ripped it out and put up those flimsy wire shelves and that gray plastic faux-wood flooring. It’s a shitty closet, but it’s their closet. That is their soul, and where they feel the most comfortable being their true selves.
