The TL is bonkers right now so I'll tell you a funny story about my old apt in Indiana. I lived above this nice guy who was a little rowdy but otherwise fine. He took my trash to the curb and de-iced the stairs for me in the winter so, a cool guy. This is how I thanked him
Our bathrooms were directly on top of each other and the place was pretty old. Needed lots of work. I was supposed to tell my landlord about anything I noticed but bc I was a 25yrold idiot I didn't realize the orange stuff on the side of the toilet was wood rot and...well....
I go to work and come back and my landlord and 70 construction guys and firemen are there and he is apologizing profusely that he had to get into the apt and couldn't reach me but there was a huge emergency. Oh boy.
My toilet FELL INTO THE BATHROOM BELOW. Right on top of the old toilet. Now. That would be one thing. But the poor guy who lived under me. Well he was occupying the facilities at the time. And he managed to Sgt Murtaugh leap out of the way as the toilet fell, nearly crushing him
So now his GF is calling me bc he's in the hospital and he wants to talk to me. And he gets on the phone and he tells me this crazy story about the crumbs of the ceiling falling on him and he goes "I'm just trying to take a shit and your goddamn toilet almost kills me THANKS"
Everything was fine, he was fine, it was just a little traumatizing for the poor guy; he wasn't mad at me we just laughed a lot and I think I bought him like 2 cases of fancy beer or something and he was mostly fine. Except when he poops he "always has an emergency exit plan"
