In one of the previous apartments I lived in, the housing manager snooped through my shit during an inspection and found some of my Mellyloon/Looneynudes print balloons. For several months after that inspection, she kept giving me fliers for sex addiction therapy and for various church groups focused around "curing sexual deviancy". And then she got mad when I didn't thank her for "helping" me. I'd rather not have to risk dealing with that nonsense again.

Inspections are annoying as fuck, especially when the inspector is a rude asshat who feels the need to provide smartass commentary about the stuff you own.

PhilosipherStoned Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 (edited) Bro I'd leave all the balloons where they are just so they have to bat them around to look at the walls and floor. It'd probably just distract them from their grading and give them a story to talk about for the rest of the day anyway.

They're all a bit overinflated, and I don't want some idiot popping one by batting it too hard. These balloons are too pricey to be wasted like that. Also, I don't really need to distract them from grading. Outside of the whole balloon thing, there are no other problems in my room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doom Metal Alchemist Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 (edited) I think the most you would have to be worried about is them thinking you are hoarding those balloons for nefarious purposes... like that one former friend of yours thought. I liked the idea someone above about just telling them the truth... but then you told them why you didn't want to, and that makes sense. I also liked the idea of using them like an obstacle course (and in the process also telling him you did it JUST to bother him), but... then you'll be wasting your money.

Around here, most apartment complexes are owned by big out-of-city (or sometimes out-of-state) businesses that manage a ton of real estate. It's not uncommon for such businesses to have regular inspections to make sure people aren't destroying the property (unless they're slumlords).
