......who knows his lease is just about up so he decides to *uck up the place for everyone else after hes gone? So he pours concrete in the drains, puts fish in the ac vents, pees on the carpet, and does everything he can to make sure the place is uninhabitable. That sure seems to be the tiny handed dotards goal for the entire nation. The damage can be fixed, but its hard work, expensive, and irritating as hell.

A buddy and I had rented from this old guy that was a little off. Right away, he gave away that he was coming in and checking things out when my roommate and I left for work. He had shown me the clever pace he hid our spare key. I realized that was probably where every previous renter knew it would be and moved it. He confronts me the next day! Doesn't even deny it. You might leave a burner on and start a fire he says! He was no doubt in every apartment all the time snooping.
One day I am waiting for some jeans to dry so I can go party. We shared a laundry room there. I go down and the dryer is off and my jeans are still wet! I had planned on snagging them even if they were still a touch damp still, but they weren't even close. Then I see the guy outside and confront him about it. He says it's expensive and those had been running long enough! Bullshit! I only had a couple pairs in there!
Another rule was no party's. I worked for beer distributor and brought home what was left of a keg after a bash we had elsewhere. I had a C02 setup and everything so it was perfectly drink able. I had a little poker game to finish it off that included two out of the other three renters. It took us about a week to finish the keg after the poker game with just a couple of us drinking it. The idiot sees me carry the keg, C02 unit and ice tub out to my truck to take it all back to work and freaks! He thinks I almost got away with having a big party at our place and tells me we're evicted!
Then he puts the eviction notice on our front door but it's written with a marker of some kind. I know he doesn't have a copy of it even and it says the end of the month that was still just starting. I didn't even tell my roommate about any of that, I did suggest we start looking because it was not going to be workable. We were already probably lucky he never found our weed and paraphernalia stash. My not telling my roommate was a masterstroke because he went and paid the rent and was floored by being told we were supposed to be already moving out! The cops got called and a Sheriff came by and he was perfect handling it. No way! We never got the notice! He had to write it up again correctly and we had another month to decide where to go.
My roommate was pissed at first when I told him what I had done. But I told him, you're a bulldog when you're fucked with! My way, you weren't lying. LOL! I was lying and you didn't know, it was perfect!
