Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that my landlord had been showing my apartment to new tenants without telling me, when I woke up this morning to a family of four staring at me scratching my nuts whilst watching TV on my couch in my pajamas, horrified. FML
Today, police barged into my apartment for a drug raid, but they had the wrong address. They came in while I was naked on my couch and didn't even apologize for breaking my door. FML
Today, a stoned man tried to break into my house. Naked. FML
Today, I returned from a week-long vacation. My landlord told me he had let my boyfriend in my apartment to get something. I don't have a boyfriend. Everything in my apartment is gone. FML
Today, I found out the friend I signed a lease with is actually a wanted drug dealer. I only found this out after the police kicked in the door at 5am and raided our house. FML
Today, I found out the day manager has been illegally entering my apartment when I’m not home. My car was in the shop, so when he saw my parking spot empty, he came right on in. I was just getting out of the shower and was standing stark naked. He didn’t even try to explain. Just smirked. 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 went outside to smoke a cigarette. When I started to head back in, I saw a shadow move across my bedroom window. I live alone, so I waited outside and called the police. They came and investigated, only to drag my naked boyfriend out, where he promptly dumped me. I forgot our 2-year anniversary. FML
Today, I discovered that my roommate is a drug dealer and has been keeping her product in our flat. I discovered this when several police officers broke down my bathroom door and arrested me while I was in the shower. FML
Today, at 6 a.m., the cops burst into our home. My husband was slammed to the ground and I had a gun pointed at me. I was naked and eight months pregnant. We had moved in the day before, they were coming to arrest the previous tenant. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It doesn't matter how many illegal things he was doing. Anything seen or any evidence was taken illegally and you cannot be prosecuted through it.

I bet if he passes that joint everything will be fine!

Don't forget "where?"

I don't think if was right of your landlord to barge in on you like that, but rules are rules. I'm all in favor of a little pot sometimes, and I like cats but if you're not supposed to have them, you shouldn't have them. Sorry that happened OP, but I think you sort of had it coming.

One of the funniest fmls I've ever read. Sounds like something you'd hear about on truTV.

You signed an agreement stating no pets were allowed on the landlord's property. Never mind the pot (illegal, even in the uk), I would evict you and your stupid boyfriend for violating the lease. If you tried to tell me it was an "illegal entry" on property I owned, I'd just find another reason.

Someone gets it. The landlord owns the property, hence the title "landlord." Most leases state that they can enter at any time to make sure no violations of the lease are happening. It's not illegal entry in the slightest.

YDI. Do you really need so many cats? If you just had one cat, then you might be able to get away with it. And your boyfriend sounds gross, tell him to smoke his weed elsewhere. If I were you, I wouldn't want to come home to a house that smells like cats, weed, and sweaty ballsack!

My landlord comes into my apartment monthly to spray for bugs and for maintenance and he has every right to do so. I hate when people actually think they can get away with keeping pets they shouldn't have in an apartment and no one will find out.

If you wanted that many cats why didn't you chose an apartment that allows them? YDI

Are you sure the entry was illegal? You bringing in pets (which I assume was in your lease that you could not have any) and the illegal activity of drug use voids your lease. The landlord has the right to enter their property without notice if illegal activity is suspected since the landlord could actually be charged for such illegal activity. In short, you deserved it.

It is never illegal for a landlord to enter his own house

Considering the amount of people saying it's illegal I'd sooner side with them on this.

It is often illegal for a landlord to enter a space he's rented/leased to someone else.
