Ice cold take: if you got murdered over rent, you were not beloved.

[–] Runcible@hexbear.net 47 points 1 week ago

it's possible they got murdered by a rival landlord for not using the regional price fixing software

White Center mourns beloved landlord reads like an Onion headline

You joked about Mao John Cena but the ghost of the chairman is alive and well.

no more half measures walter

The failure of journalism to capture how deeply funny of a story this is is tragic. They need to push the medium forward.

A landlord was killed over rent and you’re laughing? This is funny to you?

Wasn't this how crime and punishment started

[–] AmericaDelendaEst@hexbear.net 15 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Iirc crime and punishment started off with him masturbating over how he was an uber mensch who COULD kill and he did it to prove it and stealing her valuables was an afterthought. She was also a pawnbroker not a landlord. Well probably both but pawnbroker was how i remember her relationship to Raskolnikov

YEAH THAT'S RIGHT, HEXBEAR, I READ A BOOK ONCE

[–] Meh@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

How horrifying. I would never

[–] frauddogg@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Y'know, I was going to say "'mourning over landlords'? sounds like crackerish activities" and then I saw the place was really called the 'White Center'. The jokes are writing themselves; somebody knock over another.

They've got the "allegedly" in the wrong place there.

If you think there’s any conditions that will elicit sympathy for a landlord from me we’re gonna be here awhile
