You Can't Make This Stuff Up!

This technically isn't a post about film, but it does fall under "The New York Experience" and was simply too good not to share.

Yesterday, as I sat on my cousin's couch, scrolling through Craigslist in my daily and exhausting search for apartments, there came a knocking. My cousin Haim greeted a city official at the door.

"I'm here about the complaint."

"I didn't lodge a complaint."

"It's about the paint in the bathroom."

"We don't have paint in the bathroom. It's all tile."

"Mind if I check it out anyway?"

"Sure, go ahead. When was the complaint issued, anyway?"

"Uh, let's see here...looks like 1988. We're a little backed up. Well everything looks ok here. If you guys ever have any problems with anything, be sure to let us know. See ya."
