Who breaks up with someone and then falls asleep while they're still in the house?

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 53 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No one. This is just a picture between swapping toilets and someone put dishonest text to it.

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yup. Add this to the never ending “never happened” pile.

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago

lol yeah if a breakup is such a common event in your life you’re just like “we’re done and imma go get some sleep now” that could be a sign you should work on your relationship skills

[–] DillyDaily@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

Depends on the relationship.

If you live with someone and you break up with them, you don't expect them to move out that same afternoon? Unless you're offering to put them up in a hotel or something.

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

I don't date crazies, I'd do it.

[–] THEDAEMON@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

This person apparantly .

I remember something about a guy who had paid to put hardwood floors in his girl's place and then after the breakup he tore them up and took the wood with him.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (2 children)
[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Deliciously so.

[–] M500@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I guess it depends on how close the breakup was to the installation.

If she just broke up with him the days after he paid to have it installed, then I’m taking that wood back with me.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

That's a good point and I agree. I was thinking it would also depend on the conditions of the breakup. If it was due to infidelity, then yeah, I want my floor back.

I bought a house that was a foreclosure. I think they took what they felt they owned. That included a sink, all the smoke detectors, all the door knobs, all the appliances. It was strange.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In 2009 I was trying to find my mom somewhere to live. There were a lot of houses for pretty cheap since the 2008 crash had just happened. That was good, since my mom doesn't have any money. Since she doesn't have any money I went looking at a lot of foreclosures. Most of them were missing all of the appliances, all of the light bulbs, pretty much everything not bolted down (plus a few things that were), and a lot of them had holes kicked in the walls, counters destroyed, and whatever else the former owners could do to vent their anger at the banks. We ended up renting her an apartment since neither of us had the money to repair all the damage and missing features from the foreclosure houses.

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Unless there's like structural or water damage you can fix it over time.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (7 children)

Fixing takes money that neither of us had

It's probably safe to assume that a foreclosure sale involved at least some level of malicious compliance, especially one due to the 2008 housing crisis.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I remember this one, he was a plumber who had installed the toilet and decided to take it out of spite. Super mature.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 32 points 2 years ago (3 children)
[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 42 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nah, it's just where people invent intriguing fictional back-stories for mundane pictures they find. Same as it ever was.

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

At the very least, I can't find this image without text referencing the toilet being stolen anywhere, so whoever originally posted it seems to have claimed that.

[–] HappycamperNZ@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Lemmy has a microblog community.

Pretty funny reads, don't really care if real.

Well at least he took his shit with him

Or

That’s a shitty thing to do

[–] RealFknNito@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

If you can peacefully fall asleep after a breakup, you kinda deserve it

[–] Lifecoach5000@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago (2 children)

If someone did that to my bidet I would be forced to terminate any international treaty I had with them.

[–] thechadwick@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They didn't so much as leave a remittance coupon..

The audacity.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Lol are my sovcits spreading to the rest of Lemmy? I am delighted.

[–] CurlyMoustache@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

"Bidet as it may!"

[–] assassinatedbyCIA@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He needs it more than you because he’s obviously full of shit.

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Who knows the circumstances.

[–] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 2 years ago

That horrendous tile work.

[–] _Sprite@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Cant have shit

[–] theghostie@kbin.social 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's the pettiest shit I've ever seen

[–] doggle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 years ago

It won't be the prettiest shit you see if they can't get a new toilet

[–] Pratai@lemmy.ca 13 points 2 years ago

The best part about this meme is that it totally happened!

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

He didn't have enough time before she woke up to replace her toilet with a toilet that has a tiny hole that's just for farts.

[–] Melkath@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

He shouldn't have spent so much time in Turbo Time.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

It's confirmation that you shouldn't be with him.

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

She should've fell asleep on the toilet.

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 3 points 2 years ago

But then he would've stolen the bed.

we do a little trolling
