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

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

PMM - yes, I would love the Squeak's, if/when you are done with it.

Glamcookie is indeed super sugar! Cute ears.

I would like to adopt Laga's Traditional Halloween Mimosas, except I don't actually like mimosas. I don't need OJ in my champagne!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Damn it, I can tell our former landlords are going to dick us out of our security deposit (which was 6 weeks rent). They inspected the house and apprently have all sorts of complaints, like "You filled all the nail holes, but they still need to be sanded before we paint." PLEASE, people, why you gotta be nit-picking asswipes?

Robin, that's absurd. Did you document? You probably have a case with someone if so. Also, grr.

Also, also, GC is teh CUTEST with the kitty ears.

So the kids had a half day and are gone. I have already submitted my grades and comments, but I'm supposed to stay here until 4. HA! So not happening. I'm out of here by 1:30, latest.

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

"You filled all the nail holes, but they still need to be sanded before we paint."

Oh, dear god. Yeah, not looking good.

My last place dicked me over by pro-rating rent past the end of the cycle because I dropped the keys off two days late. Said they didn't know I was gone. Of course, they'd shown the empty apartment in my absence, before the cycle was even over. Just hadn't noticed all my stuff was gone.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Robin, just FYI (and I'm sure you already know this) ...if they fail to give you a printed, itemized statement within 21 days of your moving out, they are required to refund all monies, even if you torched the place.

Doesn't California have tenant-landlord laws pertaining to "normal wear and tear"?

not your mom's socks.

GC those ears are most excellent!

These landlords need a head-smack.

Robin, here's a summary of California tenants' rights w/r/t security deposits: [link]

From the 5th paragraph down: "Painting is not required, nor is filling in nail holes. These are not valid deductions."

And if filling in nail holes isn't a valid deduction, then sanding down the filled-in holes damn well isn't.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

man {{{Buffistas}}} rock. I wish I'd known this stuff the last three times I didn't get my security deposit back.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

FFR, toothpaste is good for nail holes. Just rub it in, no sanding.
