lol

so the thermostat started acting weird. Tell the landlord, he promptly checks it, runs by the hardware store, and comes back with a new one.

Seems like heat’s working again, but just in case he was otherwise coming across as responsible, in classic landlord fashion he says, “there’s some other part or something that I can’t even remember what they called it, I dunno lol, why don’t you guys just figure it out.”

so who knows anything about thermostats?

Is he talking about...(checks manual he left)...the anticipator?

I don't know anything about thermostats but I do remember that for 10 years, living in 4 different places, that not a one allowed me to control the air or heat in my unit.

[TDub]

A lot of condos/apts and public places have thermostats preset and limited. Thr thermostats you touch arent even meant to control the unit....they are a placebo to make people feel better.

For 7 years for good portions of the winter, I had to have my windows cracked open to avoid a sauna.

We have a cat sitter ( or whatever you call someone who comes in and feeds your cat when you're away ) whom we found online...she's odd as you'd expect. We left her a key in a flower pot.

We come back ( cat is ok ) and she's written us a note "...strangely enough the key in the pot went missing".

So wait, how'd you get back in?
Were you not locking the door?
Or were you and it was unlocked and the key was missing?
Or did you loose the key and not want to admit it?
Or are you planning on robbing/killing us later?

Regardless, locksmith coming over tomorrow and we will be looking for a new car sitter. Ousdahl?

[ousdahl]

Just like stop by and feed them? How many times a day? Do you have a bong at your place or do I have to bring that too?

[pdub]

Twice a day.
One cat.
BYOB.

[ousdahl]

wtf not sharing bongs?

How catty of you.

[pdub]

Don't have time for this right meow, you want the gig or not?

[ousdahl]

bro I want the gig but last time I signed up for this shit I got to the place and the key wasn’t even in the flower pot

[pdub]

He said he also takes care of cats.
So we're good.
