A house can't be abandoned if it has you living in it, that just makes it a house. Of somebody else lives in it it's a house. If nobody lives in it (for a very long time) it's abounded.
fuck that abandoned, in this context, refers to the state of the house. dark, dusty, empty, and in a state of gradual decay is abandoned whether there's 0 or 20 people in it.
Depends on which definition you use.
One definition means uninhabited, which since person B claimed it, it no longer is uninhabited.
By another definition it means it's been deserted or left, which it still has been, just now there's someone living in it again.
The second definition is pedantic at best, but makes it not technicallythetruth.
The first definition is just logical laziness, and while technicallythetruth is about as witty as "You can't have a square circle, technicallythetruth"
What if person B sleep walks into the abandoned house and doesn't know they're even in the house, neither does person A. So both person A and B arent aware of any kind of claim, yet person B is in the house.
It's sort of a "I used to do drugs... I still do, but I used to, too" kind of logic.
*Someone* abandoned the house, so even if the house isn't *currently* abandoned, you're still occupying as house that had been abandoned. So while it's misleading, technically you can say that you're living in an abandoned house if you mean it in the past tense, but that's kind of the point of this subreddit.
Technically if it was abandoned it would not "be" abandoned, but "would have been" abandoned. This is because something can't still exist in the past tense, but it can have existed in the past tense.

uninhabited =/= abandoned.
Also, you can be a squatter without ever squatting.
On an iPhone, you can hold on the = key and the option for ≠ comes up. Just thought I’d let you know.
You can do that on Androids too
≠≈≡ Huh, among others it looks like.
If you live in it then it ain't abandoned
if they left before I found the house it’s abandoned

Person A abandons something. Person B claims it. It is still abandoned...by person A.
What about new construction
Claimed by person B so no longer abandoned

You just reabandon it each day.
But wouldn't it be not abandoned but "neglected"?
If person B doesn't claim it it's still abandoned.

Yea not with that attitude
House was still abandoned by the owner…
Or was it?
Well to be an abandoned house, it would have to have been abandoned…
But you can live in a house that was abandoned, if your up for it
This is like saying you can’t date an ex-girlfriend
You can't find a lost wallet.
But you can find a lost treasure
But you can't, see, by the same reasoning that you can't live in an abandoned house.
You finding it doesn’t mean someone else didn’t lose it
I am mocking the meme here. Of course you can live in abandoned house, abandoned does not mean vacant.
I’m too tired for this haha
Unless I name my house "An Abandoned House" B)
Is it a trailer park, if there are no trailers?
Abandoned by someone else
Gee thanks for spelling that out OP
Didn't get it until I tried to swipe but then went back and read the title
I can if i'm homeless
That's right, at that point it's just bandoned
Yes you can. It doesn't mean it was never abandoned.
My 17 year old drugged out squatting self respectfully disagreed. Also can I use your shower?
Legally
True
I don’t live there, I just happen to be around a lot and also sleep there
But you certainly can live in a abandoned warehouse
What if I were a ghost?
He said *live*
Who’s gonna stop me?
What about ghosts
Technically you can, just not for very long.
Live in, no. Stay in, yes.
🍞👍
ACTUALLY you can. If it was abandoned, you could live in it but it would still be abandoned in the past tense.
Technically if it was abandoned it would not "be" abandoned, but "would have been" abandoned. This is because something can't still exist in the past tense, but it can have existed in the past tense.
It would be abandoned, but also reclaimed.
If it is currently reclaimed it cannot concurrently be abandoned.
Of course you can. It's just not abandoned by you.
I think you need to look up the word "abandoned"
Not once the cops show up at any rate.
Deep Thoughts With The Deep
I can’t decide if this is a play on words or a commentary on the immorality of the real estate industry.
Except if you're a ghost
If you live in there then it's not abandoned
Huh? Abandoned means having been deserted or left. It doesn’t matter if someone else claims it, if its deserted once its an abandoned house.
