Landlords and Weird: Today, my scumbag landlady broke into my place and stole my mop,...

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 discovered that my cleaning lady steals valuables from me, and covered it up by saying that "the vacuum must've eaten it." 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, a week after spending most of my paycheck on a down-payment and rent on a new apartment, I found out the "landlord" I paid was a scammer. Turns out the real owner was away on vacation, and he'd stolen most of her stuff before showing me the place. FML

Today, I was in my family's hotel room taking a dump. The lock to the bathroom was broken so we had made a deal: when the door is closed, someone is using the toilet. The maid didn't know that. She punched me in the face because she claimed I scared her. FML

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

Today, I came home to find that my roommate had picked my lock and stolen my new laptop. When I tried to take it back, he called the police. They sided with him since he had also taken the receipt, which was "proof" that it was his. FML

Today, some ass-bandit broke into my house by smashing a window, just so he could steal the ancient VHS cassette player that my wife wouldn't let me throw away. Thanks, scumbag, but the front door was unlocked. FML

Today, my roommate asked me to lock the door as we left our place. I told her to use my keys, because my hands were full. Afterwards, she and her boyfriend set off out of town for the next couple of days. She forgot to give me back my keys. FML

"Which I refused to give her earlier" I feel like there's an entire magical mop-related backstory that the public has to know, damnit!

I would seriously get out of there. Landlords need to know limits.

I love the way that she tried to convince you. After letting her have her spiel you should then have replied "Yes, and the criminal that did all that is you".

Maybe you should consider changing your locks? Why does your landlady even have a key?

So what, the landlady shouldn't have keys to the place she owns?

I have a deadbolt lock on my apartment that I only have a key too. I keep it unlocked if they're coming in for maintenance.

That's against the terms of your lease in most cases, if they have to get into your apartment for an emergency you'll be liable for the damages to the door and frame

Yes exactly. For example it's not her place when she let another person rent it. It's common in most terms of lease.

Wouldn't see this happening in Canada, because here we aren't assholes who won't led someone a damn mop.

If the landlord is insane enough to break into OP's apartment over a mop... then I'm pretty sure the reason OP didn't lend their mop to her was because she must've done something as batshit crazy as that before.
