It is blunt, for people who can't understand anything else.

I used to work for a nonprof helping the homeless, ran shelters, other programs.

Some people are traumatized, some people are a bit mentally off, some people are more so just dense, stupid, cocky assholes to whom the concepts of rules and consequences just... fundamentally do not seem to register, who also continuously and obviously lie.

Now this was more shelter oriented, but we helped move people into new housing too.

If you can't handle shelter rules, as in, you consistently violate them, we were a lot less eager to help those people into housing, because they can't follow rules, and part of what we are supposed to be doing on our end is sending over people who can and will.

Also, trust me, if you've ever been homeless, you will almost certainly develop a bit thicker skin than being offended by slightly impolite and blunt phrasing on a piece of paper, you will be dealing with a lot more serious shit than that basicslly all of the time, a lot more, extremely blunt and rude people than that, basically all the time.

I served on the board of a Section 8 housing authority for a number of years.

You would be amazed at the number of people who don't understand that leases are legally binding contracts and there are actual, enforceable consequences for violating the conditions of it.

"You guys can't evict me."

"Uhhh, yeah, we can. It just so happens that hording 30 cats in your house and letting them soak every inch of the place with piss is a violation of the terms of your lease."

I don't rent and it got me curious...
