Tipping my landlord, hell no! I did tip a live in superintendent at one building I lived in every Christmas. Dude lived a rough life but somehow found his way to maintaining an old building, and he was great at it. If you saw him on the street you'd assume he was homeless, but infact he kept a building housing many people running. He was very friendly, kind, and respectful. He was an exception, I'd give him a small gift, usually chocolate and a small gift card. He was a very good dude and that deserved to be acknowledged.
