realistically your only hurting the person that lives there next. Even when it eventually becomes too big a problem to ignore that'll prompt the landlord to hastily cover it up and sell it. And you are also hurting the city pipes as well which costs everyone money.
-
Start a fire. Got it.

The landlord will then have to have the drains cleared and hear exactly what they found blocking it. This will improve your relationship with your landlord and they will feel happy that you decided to take revengeful steps against them which don't really serve any purpose and are just a waste of resources. No way are they going to somehow claim back those costs from you

Bro thinks he is getting his deposit back crying laughing emoji skull emoji
-
Depends on the country. In Australia, the deposit is held by the government and the landlord needs to apply to get it, which includes showing receipts for any work they had to do. It goes back to the tenant by default. The system in the USA (where the landlord holds the deposit) doesn't make a lot of sense as they aren't really incentivized to return it to the tenant.

Right. I'm all for find a way to tip the balance of power away from the ownership class, but willful damage only screws you. Check your rental contract, a landlord can and will sue you for negligent and purposeful damage to their property. They'll also sing your rental history . Plus, if you're still living there, you're only inconveniencing yourself with the repair process.

Good ending

-
Aren’t you also clogging the city pipes?
-
Of course you are. But people who ruin other people's property already don't give two shits about others.
-
Yeah this causes "fatbergs" which wreak havoc on city pipes. I get frustrated when I see memes like this condoning willful property damage bc not only is it stupid and it hurts other people besides the landlord, but even if the landlord has to shoulder costly repairs for plumbing inside their unit, they're definitely going to pass those costs on to their tenants (either immediately or over time) so this could also contribute to rent hikes.

Not if the substance is a liquid at room temperature.
Pouring hot bacon grease down the drain will do that, because the bacon grease is only a liquid when it’s hot.
Something like olive oil isn’t going to clog pipes.
-
-
I mean, what else am I supposed to do with it?
.... No really, I'm asking.
-
If it's not that much: soak it in a paper towel and throw that away. For frying: put it back in the bottle and throw that away if the oil is spend.
-
Pour it into a bottle and throw it in the trash
-
Put it in a jar or can and put it on the compost or garbage
-
Chug it or put in old bottle or jar and throw in the trash.
-
Rather than throwing it away, you may have free options for recycling nearby, too. My county has a pretty robust program for residents available with regular recycling and hazardous waste like oil or paint in certain locations. There's sometimes restrictions and sorting required from customers, but it's usually pretty straight forward if you look it up
-
-
Civilized countries have collection stations for oil often at the same place you go for recycling.
-
If its oil, you might be able to donate it to a home diesel user
-
Tell the US government about it. Then they will bring you democracy and liberate you from the oppressive oil. /j
-
If you don't know someone that burns old oil put it in an old container and throw it away in the trash.
-
If it's something like bacon / beef grease just let it congeal in the pan then scrape it out into the garbage can.

Life should have these splash screens whenever you fall asleep.
-
My insomnia will be like a long loading game that has two or three repeating tips for each loading screen.
-
Like shitty life pro tips, sleep edition.

Posts like this feel like the modern equivalent to the USA distributing subterfuge instructional pamphlets in the USSR.
Sure, you could intentionally damage properties, but do you really want to do it because some government suits pressured you?
-
Sure bro, the foreign government conspiracy to affect the average profitability of landlords by 2% for the extremely large population of Lemmings.

POV: You're a salty dumb fuck who feels like wasting vegetable oil
-
Landlord detected, humanity rejected.
-
-
It will also make life just a smidge harder for every tenant after you. But if it helps you feel better, fuck 'em.

SLPT: Pouring hot bacon grease works faster, if you're in a rush...
-
Bacon grease? Just go to the local Mexican grocery store and get a tub of lard, liquefy it in a large stock pot and hit the pipes in the bathrooms as well. Flush some tampons and paper towel down the toilet behind them. You want to do it right.
-
Make sure they're not your own tampons, don't want them tracking your
DNApregnancy status..

Ok calm down Satan, I still have to live here in the near future

Like a kid's temper tantrum, vandalism won't improve society whatsoever. Fight the rich with wit, wisdom, and relentless ridicule.
-
Additional tip: If you're a traditional artist, your acrylic and oil paint should be even more effective :D
-
Don't worry by the way; I know that this is a really bad idea. Source: Every art classroom I've been in has had at least one clogged sink at all times.

Make sure to pour sulfuric acid down the drain right before he shows up. 🤔
-
As far as I know oil is ok. It's liquid even when cold. But lard or grease will clump in cold water.
The best thing to do is save your used grease in a can and put it in the compost or garbage bin
-
Alternative : save your grease in a jar and heat it up and pour it down the sink the moment your slumlord increases your rent and prices you out of the building.
-
I use Ghee or Tallow when cooking. Both are solid at room temperature. I wait for the left over grease to cool down, and wipe it up with a paper towel. Easy peasy.
-
Bacon grease is a good example of something you freeze in an old can to throw away.
-
Can also be used to make homemade fire starter if you're going camping. Mix it with wood pulp till you get a dry paste.
-
-
-
No it's not. Use lard or other animals fat, beef fat is the worst.
-
Exactly this, you need something that will be solid at room temperature.
-
Right, you need a fat that's solid at room temp.
-
-
Make it vegetable shortening
-
Wait you're not supposed to do that
