The advice given isnt the issue. Its the attitude its all spoken in...

Stuff like "Free (unlike your late fee that you keep racking up)" for example

I like the tone actually. Hate landlords and yeah it's a bit nasty when you think of the social dynamics but honestly sometimes you just have to reach people, because the kinds of people who become an issue also don't tend to read the dry legal document that is their rental agreement, I guarantee you.

Its not about it being not dry. Its moreso that its the exact type of tone that would make me want to do the exact opposite of whatever it says.

[–] LainTrain@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

You're not reading right. I said the legal document of a rental agreement is dry, and morons won't read it, so they have to have something more shouty and threatening shoved in their face, simplified and made emotional, like how you'd speak to a misbehaving animal, simple words, emphasis on the tone.

If you'd still want to do the opposite, you're just antisocial and probably the reason this was put up.

Having dealt with such antisocial behaviour before, it was a nightmare, I only wish it was legal to deliver such individuals to the hell in which I hope they burn for all eternity.

It reads like an attempt at joviality that comes off as condescending. College students see this shit all the time.

I’m an old fart. I know better than to try to be hip. I’m not, and never have been. I get along just fine.
