Come to Estonia, Spaghetti are called noodles and all types of pasta are called macaroni, half the population doesn’t know what pasta means other than “paste” (which is also spelled “pasta” in Estonian)

Okay and what if the apartment owners all voted on it at the board meeting?

Outside of the US it’s very common for apartment buildings to have shared ownership. In my country there are basically none where the building is owned by an entity.

That’s dozens of people you need to get to agree on how to fund lift maintenance and you bet the first and second floor folks would rather it be usage based.

Not saying I’m a fan of this but the ol’ murican “landlord should take care of the building” falls apart when you have a two or three digit number of people with a stake and say in what happens.

A lot of people actually own the apartments they live in, there’s no one landlord who owns the building. The apartment owners together do. If that’s how they vote to do it, who’s to say that’s wrong?

In a big enough commie block you might have over 100 “landlords” and it might be difficult to get them all to agree on increasing the maintenence fee.

I’m sure you can see how people would get confused since condominium is an American term and nobody likes to read articles

Idk, the mosquitoes at my place this year are so plentiful and small (hard to hit) that multiple people have asked me where the fuck those are coming from.

If you live in the suburbs of a big city you don’t know what mosquitoes are. I live next to the forest and this summer the forest is nearly impassable on foot or bicycle apparently. Which kinda sucks because I wanted to go foraging for mushrooms soon.

I’m sure they’ll still find some way to get out of the house and bother me when I’m outside.

reaching its peak

One can only hope.

With the bag of holding you can carry an infinite amount of stuff in one car. That makes it the single most useful car in the world and the 4k tier is mid in comparison.

Edit: never mind, only 500 lbs. But bag itself is 15 lbs so you stuff things in and their weight no longer matters. No need to upgrade springs and engine to carry a bunch of loot

I do too. Their news are very very biased though.

In my country, an influencer set up such a website. Posts are manually reviewed and will link to the conviction decision. You can post domestic violence and sexual abuse perpetrators who have been committed. The court decisions are actually public data anyway, just a bit annoying to search.
