[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

being dumped back out on a one-way access street that would've dumped me on the freeway going the wrong way. Seriously, ALL the crack.
DxH used to work right in that area. Two different places actually. I have memories of those roads. Not fond, but memories. Of the crack-addled roads of Sorrento.

Trust my rage

First, P-C I'm sorry all this has happened, but I know you will handle it well.

I'm just dropping in to say that my mom, Ellie, and I are headed to Raleigh because the bar exam starts tomorrow. Vortex was right - I still want to pass, but mostly I just want this test OVER!!

eta: I'm also ignoring the leasing conversation because I don't want any MI law to get mixed up with my NC law.

I may be online some, but I won't be home until it's all over. Wish me luck! (actually, wish me good recall and no surprises)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Once the landlord signs a lease with someone else through the end of your lease, you are no longer responsible for the lease.

Huh. Is this actually the same as subletting? Because usually if you find someone to sublet from you, and they flake out and don't pay or something, then you are still responsible for the unpaid rent.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Not to my understanding -- subletting is a relationship with you. Re-leasing is a relationship with the landlord.

Good recall and no surprises!

What is even happening?

No. Well. Per that link, there's one type of subletting, where you find the new renter, but then the landlord transfers the lease to the new renter. Then there's the type you're talking about, where you, the original renter, are responsible. Then there's breaking a lease. When you break a lease, it is in cooperation with your landlord, who advertises the apartment, and if he can rent it out for the same he's renting it to you, he lets you out of your lease, and just gives a new lease to the new tenant. If he can only rent it out for less, or if there's a gap between your tenancy and the next guy's, you are paying the difference, so the landlord doesn't lose out.

Hmm. It seems that if you're pretty confident the landlord can find someone to replace you, that you're better off not even finding someone to sublet, because if the landlord finds someone then you're completely off the hook.

eta: somewhat x-posty....

True. But if you can find someone to sign a new lease, you're best off.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Good luck, Stephanie!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Yes! And for the fact that there's been Massive Construction in one form or another going for how-many-years-now, and yet nothing has improved (or, as far as I can tell, even changed)! If not for the fact that it's 15-ish minutes from home, with zero-freeway needage...

So it's the entire Valley, not just the USPS...interesting.

Good luck + good recall - nasty surprises = -ma for Stephanie
