Ace Hardware is where you find frustrated tenants who decided it would just be easier to fix the sink themselves rather than deal with the landlord

You can also find there lost asexuals that ware looking for a garlic bread bakery.

When I was renting that was me lol. Tbf, the reason I didn't want to deal with the landlord is because I didn't pay the pet fee...nor the "smoke jazz tobbaccy in the apartment" fee...

"Look it'll be easier for me to just do it than to hide the cats and bongs ok?"

Do you ask that of all your prey?

Yeah, that's pretty close to the reason for my last trip to Ace. Fucking slumlord. D:

I had sparks flying out of my fixtures in one room from old water damage. After 2 days I just replaced them myself with $3 gfi switches and plugs and put an Arc fault breaker in.

When I moved out I took the outlets and breaker with me. I didn't need them, but fuck those guys.

I installed a ceiling fan in my apartment when I first moved in, and you bet your ass I'm uninstalling it and taking it with me when I move out. It's a nice ceiling fan.
