What do you think the chances are they already have an applicant in mind, and did this to avoid anyone else applying?
P.S. Note application deadline is March 6, 2013.

Hm, usually they just end up on the stairway because of following their navigation system blindly.

Can't be real; it didn't explode in a huge fireball.

I think maybe this should have been on the Evil Ideas Thread. Gives me the shudders to think what would have happened if there were people below.
At least, that was my opinion until I saw this...
That escalated quickly

Holy fuck that is hilarious, and that car is tiny.
I have a story about a Geo Metro that I could tell, as soon as I am sure that the Statue of Limitations has run out.
<Statue is a nod to Seinfeld, of course

Statue of Limitations

I did that one just for you...and Seinfeld fans. ;)

a Geo Metro
I put nearly 100K miles on one of those in college. It was a pretty nice car within its limitations.
-

They were as reliable as a train toilet, and the best mpg you could buy in the US at the time.
-
You consider 100K miles to be a lot? Or did it already have 100K miles on it before you added more?
-

I bought it with (IIRC) 7K on it, a year old. It worked pretty well. I got rid of it just before it hit the 100K mark because I had just replaced the transmission and the engine was starting to go. Other than that I don't recall having any problems with it.
Also,
You consider 100K miles to be a lot?
no, although I did then. My last car I put 230K miles on it before the transmission died.

Oh god let it stop!
https://www.reddit.com/r/britishproblems/comments/3zeftx/argos_have_promised_me_a_delivery_sometime/
They recently installed gates where I live but no concierge service yet so the amazon delivery people have to wait until I open the gate for them. This means that I'm regularly trapped in my own flat for most of Sunday.

They were as reliable as a train toilet,
... is that supposed to imply they're very reliable, or not reliable at all?
I don't understand. I've used train toilets. They're exactly like airplane toilets. I've also been on flights that were delayed because the toilets didn't work. So I guess not reliable?
I don't understand!
-
I don't understand!
Quelle surprise.
I should've thought of this but it's been a long time since I was on a train with a toilet, or saw a movie where that featured (probably The Mummy Returns).
A train toilet's basically just a hole in the floor with a lever-operated flap that dumps waste on the tracks. There's almost nothing to go wrong with it.

No it's... not?
Maybe in Bulgaria? Here in the US, we have these things called "sewage treatment laws". It helps keep the cholera down.
Also I love your train mansplainin'. "I've never been on a train, but I saw a movie once that had a train and also took place in Egypt in the 1920s, and let me tell you how trains work..."
Well I was on a train last year, and the toilet was AFAICT the exact same as an airplane toilet.
EDIT: even if I do accept that the phrase is only relevant to 1920s Egyptian trains, I still don't know what it implies. It could imply it's reliable because there's no moving parts, but it could also just as likely imply that it leaks fluid all over the road. Who knows?
-
Sometimes you should leave well enough alone:
TLDR: Some tenants of an apartment building didn't like the fact that other tenants were renting their apartments out via AirBnB, and ratted them out. Then Code Enforcement woke up, discovered the building had maybe been illegally converted decades ago (a 4-unit building had all the units cut in half to make 8 studios) and evicted everyone, except one who seems to have successfully fought the eviction.)
ETA: Huh, when did Hit & Run/Reason get whiteboxed?
-

Yeah, because idioms never outlive the things they reference.
I still don't know what it implies.
I assumed it meant that it pretty much couldn't break, since it's just a hole in the floor. Subsequent links proved me to be correct, not only for guessing right, but not starting a tedious history lesson by trying to make my ignorance the fault of others.
-
No it's... not?
Ah, so you knew what was going on and were just playing dumb so you could insult someone again. Got it.
-

Well, I dare say that they didn't "like it" due to the noise and disturbances something like that can cause. My brother lives in Berlin and knows about people who don't get a good night's sleep because AirBnB and the like attract a lot of party goers.
-
Yeah, same shit happens in Barcelona.
-
people who don't get a good night's sleep because AirBnB
Well, these people won't have to worry about that, because they've all got new homes elsewhere now.
When you poke the government and ask it to investigate your landlord, you have no control over just how much investigation will get done. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it certainly can be, and for the people in this story, it was, because they all spent a bunch of money to move, and at least some of them are paying significantly higher rents now. The article wasn't an exhaustive expose or anything so we don't know if they tried to contact the landlord and work with him.
-

It's been not quite 12 years since I've been to Europe, but it still applied to at least some modern trains then, and according to @Polygeekery's link, it still applies to some (maybe not-so-modern) ones today.
-
Well, there's also the question of liability - the landlord caused the costs due to his neligence, so he should pay for the moving costs. At least that's the way it works over here.

I think he did, but I CBA to go back and check.
Regardless, these people all have "much" higher rents now--IIRC the one figure quoted was someone going from $1200 to $1700. A nearly 50% increase isn't something to ignore.
-

Since I'd never heard it before in my life, I guess I didn't somehow telepathically know it applied only to 1920s trains. Apologies.
I assumed it meant that it pretty much couldn't break, since it's just a hole in the floor.
Or maybe it means the car leaks fluids all over the highway. I like my meaning better.

Over here, the landlord would probably also be liable for the increased rent. At least that's what happens in similar cases.
