There's at least this guy. Check the rest of the videos, this probably wasn't a joke.

[–] Haagel@lemmings.world 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh my God. This guy is serious.

Tip your landlord this holiday season!

[–] Ottomateeverything@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Jokes on him. Why the fuck would I tip a server 25 fucking percent. Nor am I tipping someone to pour me a coffee while getting paid a normal fucking wage. And I'm definitely not tipping someone who shows up days later to solve my problems and already robs me of a huge chunk of my salary.

Tipping in this country is fucking out of control.

i never wanted to strangle someone so much in my life

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

When you finally post something to please the skeptics you get comments on how real it is!

[–] Cyv_@kbin.social 36 points 2 years ago (3 children)

No tips, but our complex likes to offer like $100 off rent if you refer a friend to live there. Its kinda annoying when you get a pretty red and green christmasy flyer with "a gift for you!" On the top, then goes on to explain "we'll give you a pittance if you do our advertising for us"

Maybe just fix our dryer instead you fuckin dumbshits. I'd not recommend this complex to my worst enemy at this point.

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

What in the everliving fuck

[–] JaymesRS@literature.cafe 32 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’d bet there are at least as many landlords that ask for tips as there are people who give out drugs to kids at Halloween or kids doing the Tide Pod challenge.

[–] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I'm feeling this set of analogies

[–] snownyte@kbin.social 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They don't need to ask for tips when they slide in convenience fees into your billing, like mine does. So not only has my rent jumped $20 up, but it's also an additional $5 BECAUSE of the stupid fucking fees. Fuck landlords.

[–] Webster@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Many jurisdictions have laws that require a form of payment that doesn't come with fees. I think mine requires the landlord to be able to accept cash or check without fees. If the lease says you can only pay online, and the only way to pay online requires those fees, that would be illegal in my area.

[–] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago

Should be the law everywhere. Of course, I also believe there should be a rent cap in every city, ideally $1-2 per square foot.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 18 points 2 years ago (2 children)

This platform just doesn't do satire, does it?

[–] STRIKINGdebate2@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Always tip 75% of your income to your landlord and edge for 4 hours a day.

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Damn rentoids were probably going to spend it on Funko pops anyways /s

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world -5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

You can't prove a negative. If you can't find an example of a l*ndlord (🤮) asking for a tip, you haven't proven that landlords don't ask for tips, only that you suck at finding examples of it.

[–] lugal@lemmy.ml 16 points 2 years ago (3 children)

What you're doing is a reversal of the burden of proof. The claim is "landlords ask for tip", OP says "proof it to me" and you say "no, you proof the opposite! You can't? Bad for you"

[–] ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (2 children)

To be fair this is the shitposting community and bad takes are encouraged

You made me scroll back up and upvote OP. Good on you for defending them.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damm bro kinda like this is for shitposting

[–] jackoneill@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

He’s probably religious

[–] Adalast@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

In some ways you are right, but there are many methods to prove a negative within a threshold of certainty. Here's a good read. https://factmyth.com/factoids/you-cant-prove-a-negative/
