Should have a couple of stars missing and a corner torn off to be more accurate.

I was just living in a house where the garage door was falling off the hinges. We asked them to fix it and they told us "you have to look at it as a carport now".

It should have mold peeking out from the bits it missed.

I feel this in my soul. My university house had mould on the bathroom ceiling, and one of my roommates was allergic - they went into violent sneezing fits every time the showered.

Our landlords tried everything to avoid addressing it, up to claiming that, "people couldn't be allergic to mould like that."

They only "fixed" it after one of my other roommates threatened to talk to his father who was a lawyer. Their "fix" was to paste over the ceiling with vinyl plates.

What wierd about US is amount of rent. It seems people there own less then (post-)Soviet citizens.

True, but have you considered the fact that they are "free" and beat the commies? /s

Used to be beige. Now it's gray... gray everywhere.

It's actually called "greige" and it's a mix between beige and gray

I wish I was joking

I want to thank you for the new knowledge but I also kind of wish I didn't know this.

Wait, your landlords actually paint stuff? I've had a giant white plastered hole in my wall for years that mine refuses to paint. He always says he will, he just never does.

Then in a lot of places (check your local tenancy laws to be sure), you're legally allowed to get someone in yourself to do it (or do it yourself) and deduct the expense from rent payment.
