Only when you're selfish.
Come to think of it, if being selfless is a burden to you then you aren't really selfless.
I guess they don't see the sacrifices people make for their rent money
Daaamn this is really a shitpost indeed
Thank you
Safe living? HA
Do NOT be kind to your landlord.
My landlord lost their house gambling so I offered them to rent one of my rooms at discount as a roommate.
Now whenever my rent increases due to cost of living, I increase their rent due to cost of living.
We are in a sick perpetual cycle and both our rents went up 5000% yesterday. We are comrades in this pain and promised to protect each other if liver selling operation goes wrong.
It's a hateful bond, an adversarial friendship, and a dying survival. Somebody please help!
Now that I think about it, if a circle exists somewhere where A rents to B, B rents to C, and C to A (make it as long as needed, of course), one increasing the rent leads to a perpetual rent increase until one of them collapses? Would be funny to see tbh.
Lol spot on! This is exactly how the current economy is working 🙈
I think that means you raised the GDP of your block by 500x. You two make a pretty good team! You should both get some kind of medal for driving such economic growth.
Edit: hang on a second, is your landlord Larry Ellison?
5000%?
Have you tried getting a second landlord roomate?
That poor landlord is living from your paycheck to the next.
My landlord is a multibillion dollar corporation and my fridge is 32 years old.
New fridges are a joke anyway. Mine broke after 5 years. I have a garage fridge better then my new one
If that fridge is still happily running then be happy, they literally don't make them like that anymore.
It leaks water on the floor, causes my power bill to go up and grows mildew around the seals weekly...
Good news, they do still make them like that!
It's low on refrigerant and effectively unfixable. Depending on where you're at you can probably withhold rent by putting it in an escrow account until the landlord fixes the problems. You have to tell them by certified mail, and if appliances aren't included in your rent agreement don't do it because you're already screwed. In that case get your own fridge and keep the receipt.
Nah it's Indiana. This state is arguably the most pro landlord state with very little tenant rights hence the old fridge among other issues that get bandaids instead of repairs/replacement.
It's probably also super inefficient and uses Freon
Freon is a brand name not a refrigerant. You mean R12 which was banned in new equipment 32 years ago. It's probably R22.

Have you sincerely and cheerfully wished your multibillion dollar corporation landlord a happy and prosperous birthday, and have you gratefully and bravely remitted no less than three (3) months of your (useless to you) money?
No?
You’re what’s wrong with society.
Truly I am a monster.
Imagine not tipping your landlord.
This generation man...
I didn't know until now that there is a debate about tipping your landlord. For me this sounds unbelievable. It's like tipping your politicians and policemen. Or in another way like tipping your mum.
So selfish and entitled
That's why none kf these kids are getting any houses. They really called this upon themselves
Our landlord wanted us to pay for the ac being fixed...during the hottest part of July.
You could be on fire in front of me, and I'd piss on you. Tell me you're a landlord and I'll need the first month and last month deposit first.
Piss would be too good for them. I'd just get some marshmallows and sticks out
Wouldn't the pee just make the fire burn harder and be gross too and an insult? I feel like it is worse.
The gross bit sure, but from my understanding pissing on them would help put them out due to piss being mostly water

Sarcasm on Internet Boards doesnt stay sarcastic for long
Tbh I thought it was just some meme made by landlords, for landlords, with landlords, from landlords and that kind of stuff.
I AM DUMB OK?
What's gonna happen?
Landlords won"t get... fired :-)
People will start believing in a flat earth and that birds aren't real.
Or that Landlords are good people
BIRDS ARE FLAT AND THE EARTH ISN'T REAL WAKE UP SHEEPLE
Sounds ideal
Fuck the leeches.
