Today, I asked my landlady if she could fix the air conditioner that's been broken since I moved in. Instead, she came round and took away my bathroom mirror, along with all the toilet paper. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my scumbag landlady broke into my place and stole my mop, which I refused to give her earlier. She denied everything and tried to convince me that some criminal broke in using a key, stole only my mop, and was nice enough to lock up on the way out. FML
Today, I was excited by the thought of the bathroom in my rental being replaced after the plumber advised that the leak can't be easily fixed. Instead, the owner has decided to fully renovate and is kicking me out. FML
Today, I accidentally dropped and shattered my small bathroom mirror. My sister came to see what was going on, took one look at the shattered mirror, and said, "About time you put it out if its misery." FML
Today, my roommate was packing up her kitchen stuff as she prepared to move out. Apparently that included the majority of things I bought last week to replace all of her stuff she is taking. FML
Today, my ex-girlfriend moved out. I came back to a sparsely furnished home; she'd even taken the shower head, my beard trimmer, and the soap from the bathroom. FML
Today, I started packing up the flat I have been renting. As I took a picture off the wall I also ripped half the wallpaper. That's my deposit gone. FML
Today, after taking a shower, I realised that my landlord was peeking in the whole time through broken ventilator. Once he tried to get into my room, using his keys. I couldn't tell the landlord's wife, as I didn't have any proof so I left the house, even though my rent was long due. FML
Today, I'm so nice, I allowed my landlady to use my freezer in the hallway. In exchange, she's so nice, she feels entitled to take my food being stored in said freezer. FML
Today, my roomate took the toilet paper out of my bathroom. I went into his room to look for it, only to find a large wad of it balled up near his laptop and mouse. FML
Today, one of my roommates blew a fuse by running a personal heater on full overnight. I notified our landlady that I had to get a new fuse; she came over to pay me for it. Only as I heard landlady's horn did I see another roommate's girlfriend's car; she stayed overnight and isn't allowed to. Both roomies got evicted and blamed me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hey, I moderated this one too. FYL, OP. Finding a new place to live should be on your top list of priorities.

>:( Sounds like my old apartment complex. Refused to fix a broken a/c the entire year long lease in 110 degree Scottsdale, luckily they never stole from me though.

Scottsdale is a pretty fancy place, though. But any way you make it, that's still mean.

Classic misunderstanding. Once, a neighbor asked me to water his plants while he was on vacation, and I burned his house down. Happens to the best of us !

I would be taking her to court...for theft, taking the mirror, and failing to fix things

Check with the Tenancy Authority. With repairs, you have the right to fix things yourself and take those costs off the rent. As for the stolen property, have a chat with the cops and see what advice they give you. But the cost of a mirror and the toilet paper should also come off any future rent of yours. And look for a new place to live. She might be going through your underwear drawer when you're not home....

In Australia each state has slightly different law regarding renting however I'm pretty sure you'll find that it's illegal to do what she did. Assuming the toilet paper wasn't supplied with the property: that's theft; with regards to the bathroom mirror, seeing as you rented the property with that fixture in place, you have an expectation as to its proper maintenance and presence. Time to have a chat with your land agent.

Picture this. The OP's landlady comes in to assess his air conditioner for repair or replacement then gets a severe case of the ***** so out of desperation she uses OP's toilet but runs out of paper and in her desperate search for a new roll, trips and break the mirror so she cleans up after herself and intends to replace the mirror but hasn't told OP about her mishap yet due to embarrassment.

I would start looking for a new apartment complex and then give them the 30 day notice because that's some disrespectful shady shit and no one should be treated that way

That is really messed up but I would start looking for another apartment complex or town home but no landlord should ever treat their renters that way but just give them the 30 day notice because they seem to be the type to go after anyone for anything f*** that s*** lol

Did you do anything that would get her in trouble/fired?
