Spoonman should take his woodworking skills to make him some new legs for his chair. Hell, make them artisanal and start a reclaimed chair business out of it. Probably more money in it.

I'm the guy getting evicted from a garage that almost certainly doesn't meet bedroom requirements for rentals In an unrelated hypothetical, if the landlord furnishes a space heater does that meet heating requirements in Portland, Oregon. In a second unrelated hypothetical, my 50-foot extension cord gets really warm when I run the space heater - who is liable

I’m happy to post my workstation but it is in my room, not the living room so it doesn’t seem comparable. Also I don’t illegally import Chinese poo poo and boil it or sand it in common areas where random toxic poo poo could get in the air or what have you, particularly when I have a space set aside specifically for that. I do wonder if he’s a goon but c’est la vie. pseudanonymous fucked around with this message at 22:01 on Feb 28, 2020 |

Which to be fair it was a written manifesto so he did follow that instruction.

pseudanonymous posted:I mean does he have some reasonable expectation of privacy for something he posts in a common area? You know who could answer that question? Your lawyer. I am extremely doubtful that your occupant brother in the house your mother owns actually has landlord authority, and I'm even more doubtful that you have it simply because he's said he wants you to take over essentially being the landlord. A responsible adult would consult a professional who can tell them whether they actually hold this position and the attendant rights and responsibilities, not ask specific advice from a comedy forum thread explicitly not for that purpose. In my mind, that same adult wouldn't try to humiliate someone he thinks is his tenant on the basis of his perceived disability, but maybe that's just my crazy opinion. As much as I would love to watch you continue to make an rear end of yourself and post more potentially incriminating information, it really rubs me the wrong way that you think the best way to deal with this situation is to gently caress with someone's life because you think you have the right to do so. I get that you don't want to live with the guy, but the way you're going about this sounds really unfair, needlessly mean, and if there's any justice in the world, will really bite you in the rear end.

Sorry for the derail away from the comedy, but I remembered a hypothetical that's been bugging me for years. So say you have two companies, company B (the buyer) buys custom equipment from company S (the seller). B sends over a request for quote (RFQ) for something specific, and sends over engineering specifications stating, "it shall contain X, Y, and Z." S sends a written quote over along with Terms and Conditions (T&Cs) that say, "We can do X and Y, but Z ain't happening, and by buying this you agree to our T&Cs." B sends a PO over with T&Cs that state, "we bought per our RFQ + specifications, no changes, and by selling this you agree to our T&Cs." Pretend this is all done blindly, and/or anyone who negotiated a deal on the side got hit by a bus (usually changing T&Cs is complicated/impossible, so it's often a handshake agreement), so only the T&Cs exist to battle it out. Whose T&Cs prevail? The buyer's or the seller's? Or is it massively complicated depending on the exact verbiage in each company's T&Cs? For sake of argument, both parties are in my current state of NC (if state matters). But I'm also interested in the extremely common scenario of what happens if each party are in a different state (and each party's T&Cs say that all legal matters are resolved in their respective state's courts).

For what it’s worth, OP, all these people dunking on you calling you a slumlord and saying you’re being mean would react the same way or worse if they were living with a tenant that made them uncomfortable in a house their family owned. It’s easy to judge from the peanut gallery. Just get a gotdam lawyer.

"family wants/needs a place" is the literal most common bullshit way to scam around renter protection laws here. it generally means "we found a cousin to live here while we renovate so we can shove this family out and charge more rent for it" so that's why people familiar with the specific laws and history involved are skeptical of the explanation anyway. speaking only as a professional woodworker, if him sanding indoors is a problem that's entirely fair, and there's ways he can mitigate that which you would be within reason to expect of him, ranging from "dust collection equipment" to "just sanding outside" or maybe doing it all in the garage he apparently rents? I dunno. You can solve this like adults if that is actually what you want

gently caress You And Diebold posted:if thats really where he makes the spoons that is very tidy. Whittling makes a ton of wood scraps I think he does most of his crafting poo poo in the garage. He's very careful not to do certain things when I'm home so I don't always know what's going on. He sometimes solders in the living room, he's been known to boil spoons in the kitchen. Javid posted:"family wants/needs a place" is the literal most common bullshit way to scam around renter protection laws here. it generally means "we found a cousin to live here while we renovate so we can shove this family out and charge more rent for it" so that's why people familiar with the specific laws and history involved are skeptical of the explanation If he would act even remotely like an adult we'd have 0 problems. I have tremendous sympathy for the fact he's mentally ill and trying to make his way. Part of why I'm posting here and being so loving mean about it is to deal with on a comedy forum rather than just screaming at him when he does something ludicrous and acts like he's the victim. I don't want to worry he's going to flip out and hurt my dog, I don't want to worry he's going to burn the house down soldering in the house or boiling spoons, I don't want to worry that he's going to cut his arm off in my garage (he wrote down in his manifesto that he removes the safety pieces off his cheaply made Chinese power tools). I don't want to deal with him harassing my other roommate and implicitly threatening violence and saying poo poo like "I could have a gun in my room". I absolutely understand that people often make up poo poo like this to evict someone so they can charge more rent. I'm pretty sure if I evict him I'll end up financially worse off, he rents a tiny attic which is difficult to rent out, and a garage, which normally roommate tenants don't rent garages, so it's basically just free money for not using my garage. I am going to get my ducks in a row and talk to a lawyer and see how he acts in the meanwhile. If he keeps doubling down every day on the insanity we're going to be well over 9000 pretty soon and I'm just going to have the pull the trigger.

It sounds like he is doing extremely normal poo poo in the space he rents (which few other people want), and he avoids you because you're a giant dick about it > sanding - in garage or, if indoors, properly cleaned up > soldering - this is a completely normal indoor task, assuming you mean "small iron" and not "blowtorch and plumbing". most solder these days is lead-free, you can just ask him with words which he uses if you want > boiling? - I'm not actually sure what this means wrt spoon making so if it's gross and smells it might need to be a hot plate in the garage instead Javid fucked around with this message at 02:21 on Feb 29, 2020 |

My personal bedroom, not the public, common, living room:  I don't really know, I don't really care that much about the spoon boiling, it's just weird. He said it strengthens them or weakens them or something. If the spoon boiling, or the soldering or the sanding or whatever were isolated things, I wouldn't care.

I'm just gonna say.....when you make cookware kind of things out of wood boiling them removes the tannins which helps to cure them (so they aren't open pore nasty and can be cleaned after use). Wether that is something you find acceptable or not in your bothermoms home, etc is (maybe) up to you. It's a little weird but if this dude is eeking out a living on his etsy poo poo..........
