Tipping them of a cliff? 🥺👉👈

I think we should go for defenestration. Saves gas and travel time, plus the Russians have had a monopoly on the practice for far too long

I like how the landlord duties they mention are usually completed by other people.
They pay tradesmen to fix things and a lot rely on management companies to handle the houses/tenants. The cost of those services is then passed onto the tenant in the form of higher rent.

Landlords are one of the most self-entitled classes to exist.
- herrcaptain ( @herrcaptain@lemmy.ca ) 23•6 months ago
They have a long history of leeching off of society, all the way back to feudalism (or likely beyond). It’s almost like it’s ingrained in their psyche.

Class dynamics in action. Landlords are leaches, by definition.

Tipping is an odd word to use, I think the correct term is Defenestrating.

Right? This doesn’t read as satire, but I’m baffled how anyone could write this with a straight face.

I think tipping landlords is fine, in some contexts. For example, if your landlord is walking on a thin plank above void, you should tip them over.

This started as a joke on Reddit, making fun of landlords.

Tipping landlords makes the same amount of sense as tipping dentists or food servers: none.

I’d entertain sending landlords to the tip if they wanted.

As if I’ll tip the “socially acceptable” scalpers. They’re still scalpers, but worse.
With scalpers you get a product and you own it, With landlords it’s scalping as a service so you don’t own it but you still pay for it.

in the apartment i grew up in, we lived on the top floor. the ceiling started leaking in the middle of the living room, there was some kind of attic space above us but tenants weren’t allowed up there. we reported the leak and no one came. we reported it again a few weeks later and maintenance came in a couple days after that, sawed through the ceiling, poked his head up there, looked around, then “fixed it” by using a nail gun to nail a piece of office ceiling tile over the hole he sawed. we were told he’d come back in eventually to repair it properly. we figured that was the best we were going to get so we didn’t complain anymore and it stayed that way for like 6 years. it wasn’t until i got a little older and started dating that one of my bfs fixed it for us
