Times When People's Apartments Had Them Doing a Double Take

That's a Perfectly Well-Working Shower

We’ve all dealt with that one landlord who swears their property is flawless, even when glaring issues are impossible to miss. Take this example: a tenant turns on their shower, and black sludge pours out of the showerhead. Yet, the landlord insists it’s perfectly normal. Really? Scrubbing away at a blackened showerhead isn’t anyone’s idea of a relaxing DIY project. Maybe this landlord is ahead of the curve, dreaming up a new trend in bathroom decor

Could black sludge be the next big thing, replacing those dull shower curtains? It’s hard to imagine, but who knows? After all, some people think quirky is chic. Still, most renters would rather have clean water than a “unique” bathroom experience. Landlords like this make you wonder: do they truly believe their claims, or are they just hoping tenants won’t push back? Either way, it’s a situation that leaves everyone scratching their heads—and maybe reaching for a plumber’s number.
