For some fun ideas for their cake:
Interesting......I've always used my own leases in paper form, & all modifications are done by addendum.
This highlights any changes.
People are sneaky

Good thing they didn't ask for guns, drugs, or hookers.
A wise landlord also has a clause to deal with errors discovered later.
Something clearly not agreed to, such as this, can be excised if it's a problem.

We both know many people on Midgard are not wise. Smart...meh sometimes they get lucky. But wise? In the 21st century? No.
I'm not sure how you can be so certain of that.
The wording of the contract does not specify whether the landlord must deliver the cakes, or whether the tenents will be picking up the cakes. The contract merely states the landlord shall "provide" the cakes on the specified weekends.
It does not clearly state the tenents must pick them up, and "take the cake." It is entirely possible for it to be a "bring the cake" scenario.

I like one of the comments on the article. Where it mentions instead of an innocent cake clause it could have been something along the lines of after paying rent for so much time the property switches ownership to the renters. . Now THAT would be a Hell of a clause to miss. Kind of takes it from rental to rent to buy.

This is why it's important to use a well designed lease, & to read it (including the boilerplate) carefully before signing.I like one of the comments on the article.

Point is Not just the renter need to read the lease. But just a renter reading it is what is drilled into people's heads.
Yes, both should read the lease carefully.
I require tenants to initial or sign every page.

That's Oppression!
It's very good oppression.
Too many tenants don't want to read the lease, so we review each page with them.
To have them acknowledge this protects me.

For good or for ill it show them that you take it seriously. More should. I rented a place and it had no septic tank. Then later on that landlord got replaced by a new one. Me and my father dug up what was suppose to be the septic tank and it was...something held together by a street sign. I am not joking. I reported it to code enforcement and it made the new landlord very angry...it was epic.
A good way to ruin a relationship with a landlord is to call in the government.
That should be a last resort.

The new Landlord made it clear he didn't like me and didn't fix anything before. My dad was a plumber and could handle other issues I had decently well. I really didn't want to do it but I really had no choice.
Aye, some landlords do deserve the dead hand of bureaucracy.

The one before him did a good job well kind of since he was the one that created that "septic" tank. One time a framed picture Lenin I had fell on the AC control box and the AC no longer worked...in the Summer...in Florida but he got it fixed almost right away.

Some landlords/ladies need the city called on them just to get them to do anything other than collect money. I know calling the city on my old landlady probably helped along her evicting us later, but at the time I had no other recourse. Did lose the house a few months later when she wouldn't pick up our rent (which she always did religiously bright and early every first of the month). I called her several times and left messages about the rent check waiting for her. That I'd drop it or mail to wherever she wanted, but she never returned my calls. After one week was up and she still hadn't gotten the rent or contacted me back we received an eviction notice for non-payment of rent. Wasn't that some sweet ****?
