so guess who just gave me the “we need to talk” text…hmm I wonder what this could be about!

Just pay your rent, dude. And clean up the empties.

Being a landlord must be a terribly stressful and unfulfilling job...which I say because nearly every landlord I ever had was a complete dick.

I’ve paid my rent on time to him every month for 4 years straight. The one month it was a day late was in April 2020 when the shit was hitting the fan and the narrative was, might be delays in the mail. Landlord texted, did you send rent? I didn’t get it yet. I replied, yes I sent it but apparently it’s delayed in the mail. If you’d like I could cut a new check and re-send, Venmo, drive down and hand a check to you at your doorstep in Boulder, whatever works. He said, no worries, then I’m sure it’ll show. Next day, the check arrived. Going forward I even offered to send rent some way other than the mail if it was a concern to him. All good.

The place is clean too!

At the very least, I’m not a fan of the suspense. “We need to talk because…_______” would be nice.

Is he raising rent again? Probably.

Am I getting kicked out just cuz? Maybe.

Is he finally fixing that patio door that’s so hard to open and shut? Doubtful.

Is it something innocuous like “I was riding my bike and couldn’t get down this one trail cuz trees are blown over?” That’s possible too, cuz he previously requested a meeting just to say that.

Im not even gonna get started down this road again. Y'all have fun.

Maybe he wants you to go see him perform in his dance quintet

I’ll be there, man.

For whatever reason I had higher hopes for this thread than the dumb landlord shit on the pols bored.

Mjl is taking it where it needs to go.

By where it needs to go, I mean, to Crane Jackson’s Fountain Street Theater

Also is it theater or theatre?

Depends on whether you spell it Fountain Street or Fontain street

A newer age landlord problem are these endless leasing corporations that pay kids fresh off of a useless bachelor's degree $19,000 to manage a building of 100+.

That’s a good point.

Some big corporate operation is a whole different animal than just some chick getting her rug munched by PhD

excuse me -

Bro, I'm a home owner.

You're the one getting the "We need to talk" messages. Only a matter of time until that turns into “What is it about good sex that makes me have to crap? You really jarred something loose tiger.” just like in Kingpin.

Kinky.

There’s just not a lot of market transactions that start out with the same language a girlfriend uses to break up with you.

My local butcher is always like "it's not you, it's me"

And I simply reply, "Can I get a that bone in ribeye, third from the back."

BABY BUT I CAN CHANGE!!


ummm yes sir, here’s your change, that’s $.31 cents back on a dollar paid for a $.69 cent donut.

Sounds like somebody's rent is going up.

Yeah, that might be best case.

Well, second best case.

Best case is some shit about a trail closure so totally random it belongs in the other thread.

Or something like, hey I’m gonna finally have that guy I know stop by to fix the patio door.

But rent going up is third best case.

I guess worst case is some shit like, sorry we’re kicking you out so my wife’s college roommate’s nephew or whatever can live there instead, cuz I’ve had that one happen too.
