My neighbors were home and their front door was open so I walked the few steps to their door and they were siting facing me on the couch watching TV. I asked them if they had a drop of milk for my tea and they were both looking at me rather strangely. The husband said, "Um, do you realize you have no clothes on?"
I don't think I've ever in my life been so utterly embarrassed ...
ROTFLMAO
Good thing you had understanding neighbors! LOL I think Robert Downey Jr. did something like this (passed out in a neighbors bed after drinking) and had no end of legal troubles... LOL
I have no funny renter stories, only nightmares...
--arrived at apartment with my things to find new landlord standing in his underwear painting the ceiling; he said he didn't know I was coming that day (I'd told the property manager); the man later disappeared and was thought to be wacked by the mob.
I see nothing odd about this. Painting in the nude is a great way not to get paint on your clothes, and much more comfortable when it's hot out. Just sayin'.
Let's see ... years ago, we lived in a first floor apartment, the kind that's a half-flight down from ground level. We'd been there nearly a year when the area had a few days of heavy rain. The third day of this, we were getting ready for work early in the morning when we noticed a wet spot on the carpet. As in, a puddle. Soon the puddle was joined by another and another and they started spreading and meeting each other. It was a puddle party!
We got out the Rainbow and started sucking up the water while we waited for maintenance to come with the heavy duty machine. Three hours later, I finally got to rest when maintenance arrived. Came to find out, the water was seeping up through a crack in the building's foundation. Greaat. Let's leave this apartment!
So we asked the apartment management if we could move to the newly vacant apartment upstairs. They said yes, so we moved everything upstairs over the long July 4th weekend. The next month, the building's boiler blew, so they asked all of us to turn on all the faucets to clear the lines. We did, no problem. But when we came home from work that day, we noticed that our walls and ceiling looked funny - the tape was all buckled! In a couple of spots, water was dripping. Turns out, our upstairs neighbors had turned on the kitchen tap, cleared the pipes, and then left the tap open ... but they put a plate in the sink, which blocked the drain...
and that's how we got flooded on the second floor.
that was an awesome landlord (for fixing it so quickly) of course the guy could've told ya. lol
