Hole's not big enough. (If I had a nickel.)

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Then I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's strange that I found them in my butthole.

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That's what she said

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Don't steal! You should rent it. And tip OP.

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I would but my low, low income as a landlord with only 14 properties makes that impossible.

Can't believe tipping landlords was considered even as a meme lol

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Sounds overltly American tbh

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Actually, it was invented by the British in 1643.

Lmfao.

My landlord's hardwork: Calling the service repair guy. Making sure the property management company pays him my rent. Paying for a new AC he cheaped out on decades ago.

He has multiple properties. I don't know if it's possible to use each one at the same time, if so that's a wild power, and I would totally not rent them out.

And if the pay is inadequate maybe he should get a job lol

Sounds like your landlord is underpaid tbh

[–] JackLSauce@lemmy.world 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If they're landlords, the correct term for a tenant is landslave

[–] gnutrino@programming.dev 32 points 1 year ago

Landserf would be a more accurate term.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago (7 children)

tipping? do Americans tip their fucking landlords too?

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago

.....do other countries seriously lack that much respect that they don't even tip their landlords? my god what a shithole the rest of the world is

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Tipping your landlord is essential for a good relationship. Not tipping them is basically wage theft.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Press the crosspost button to repost! And tip your landlord.

[–] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've heard of cow tipping. Is landlord tipping the same sort of thing?

[–] CanadianCarl@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)
[–] evilcultist@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But what about landlord tipping?

[–] CanadianCarl@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Idk, it sounds plausible.

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

but i saw it happen in the barnyard movie

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Yeah. By paying the mortgage plus 30% on the property they bought at double a fair market rate just to keep me from buying it for myself.

I love paying double in rent what I would pay for a market-rate mortgage and getting no equity in return.

Thanks landlords!

It was a 4chan meme to "trigger the lefties", but turned into a shitpost.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

consider me triggered

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

No we don't, but they wish we would.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The "inadequate pay" one got me rolling. 😂

Inadequate pay for what exactly? Owning some land and squeezing money from the people who actually take care of it? Fuck landlords!

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For all the services they provide us

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thank you, I needed a good laugh today. 😂

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm glad I could help, upvotes on the left. Or wherever they are. That's my obligatory tip!

It probably doesn't apply to many people posting here or in general, but if you became a landlord how did your view of tenants change?

[–] Turret3857@infosec.pub 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

not a landlord, I hate landlords, but I do have room mates and this shit sucks. none of them seem to have any understanding that if food.is kept in the fridge too long it will mold, or that putting a bowl in the dishwasher facing the door won't clean it. its like living with a bunch of 10 year olds figuring out how to do chores for the first time

[–] Sea_pop@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I fucking hated having roommates. Our house had two kitchens and you'd think that would solve a lot of the issues... Nope. Cat litter box. Garage. Shared backyard. Everything that could be mistreated, or used improperly, was.

[–] Bamboodpanda@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

My wife and I own three homes, each purchased below our means so we could invest time and money into renovations while living in them. One is currently rented, and we’re working on the second, with plans to have it rented by next summer.

Balancing full-time jobs with these projects demands a lot of our time and resources, but I take pride in the work we put into each home. I treat my rental properties with the same care and quality as my own home—because they were my homes.

I also expect my tenants to treat the house with the same respect I do.

[–] StayDoomed@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I've had to rent out rooms and the basement of my home as a "landlord" and I lowered the rent on people in stead of raising it because they were giving me enough to cover part of my mortgage. It still felt shitty and exploitative to do. Especially if something broke and they had to wait to say, use the toilet.

I'd never want to do that again if possible. Also my "tenants" were not people or friends I knew beforehand. I just tried not to be a piece of shit about it.

When I see "real estate experts" gouging people to buy more real estate and bragging on social media about it - I do think they are, in fact, fucking parasites on people that do actually contribute to society. It doesn't have to be this way. Housing should not be a commodity.
