I am a fat neckbearded goon. Will the wearing of carpet from the computer chair in which I spend far too much time be considered reasonable wear and tear at the end of a 12 month lease? Or will most landlords want to replace the entire floor and take it from my deposit?

Excellent idea, thank you. If I want to avoid the damage caused by the spikes on the mat, would it be dumb to get a 'smooth' mat meant for hardwood floors and use on a low pile carpet?

Moved in to my first apartment and I'm stoked. 1BR approx. 780sqft in 10 unit complex built in 1954. They exposed the solid oak flooring throughout and polished it up real nice before I moved in. They also put a brand new (albeit it somewhat cheapish) kitchen. The bathroom is ORIGINAL; Pink tiles with a matching pink lid on the tiny toilet. It's cool though because it's retro and kitsch.

The only issue is on the day I moved in was a note from the landlord saying to call PGE to get the new gas wall heater going. I called them (a Friday) and they couldn't get a tech out until Tuesday evening. I talked to the landlord and he said he couldn't get the pilot light lit. Going to be mid-30s to low-40s overnight tonight, maybe a little higher over the weekend.

Is this acceptable and "habitable" ? Don't want to push my luck with my landlord but wondering if I should for $20 off the rent or something. Or if I'm just being a baby being cold whilst I browse the internet.

Why is the car payment so high?
