Beware all ye who enter here

A weird landlord doth creepeth about. I think a tenant put this sign up to make sure Mackenzie Manor visitors know what they’re getting themselves into.

Don’t be too alarmed but we will need you to sign a waiver.

Mackenzie Manor Muzak

If you hadn’t already guessed, this is my building’s official theme song.

Signs, signs, everywhere there’s signs
Blockin’ up the scenery, breakin’ my mind
Do this, don’t do that, can’t you read the sign?

Actually, weird landlord should really consider piping in a Muzak version of this song playing on a continuous loop. I bet he hears something like it in his head. (along with “he wants you too Malachi, he wants you too”)

Signs schmigns, they’re for whimsy!

Had a scheduled power outage for our building yesterday (found out while working on on my computer on an important project!).

Apparently, as informed by the man I spoke to working up on the power pole, we should have been informed prior. Oh, really? Hmmm.

No &%$#* sign. (why I oughta) Yes, let’s save a plethora of signs for arbitrary and imaginary things but NEVER for something legitimate like a scheduled power outage.

Thanks weird landlord!

Laundry log reloaded

Was reminiscing about “Hey look, it’s a laundry log!” and realized a closer look was in order.

For one thing, look at this stunning use of colour and asymmetry.

Ok, now for the laundry log reloaded quandary…

As the lovely arrow so clearly points out, we the residents, are welcome to use cleaning supplies OTHER than those on this “shelf”.  Hey great, thanks!

There are no other cleaning supplies anywhere else in the laundry room.

Advanced key usage technique

I read this one especially closely every time I use the front door.

Yup, still weird from this angle.

And guess what? The lock works just fine. I have never had a problem with it once in over 6 years, not even slightly.

No teeny tiny UNSOLICITED newspapers

The sun gently sets on your house which is hovering above earth and then…

…lightning strikes! A loud voice booms down from the heavens and says
“NO FLYERS…”

…or miniature unsolicited newspapers. Ok?

Hey look, it’s a laundry log!

Awww c’mon, why can’t I touch the log sitting on the “shelf” in the laundry room?

Master “shelf” improviser

So this is a shelf? Oh.

There’s a pink dumbbell on the “shelf” too.
Seriously, what the hell is going on here?

Front Door Mania!

The uncluttered front door to my building.

I think he should put arrows of different sizes & colours pointing to ALL of the signs. More happy faces too please.

Don’t know how to recycle? Read this!

I think this one needs more highlighter and happy faces.

Notice how the middle happy faces (2 top & 2 bottom!) have been coloured yellow to show they are just slightly happier than the other 24 happy faces.
