I made a decision that feels almost wrong but very petty and satisfying at the same time. For the last six months, my partner and I have been dealing with the world‘s worst landlord, from not fixing things to cussing us out to genuinely just being the definition of a slumlord. That brings us to the biggest issue that has caused my post here today. he wants to charge us an extra $10 a month for me to use the restroom, also I’ve got completely no response for over three weeks about the money he owes us back for our septic (we pay a set amount and don’t use even have of it on a busy month). It’s not that the $10 for the bathroom or even the money he owes us back will make or break the bank, but it’s a moral thing, it’s in the lease to be reimbursed, it’s not in the lease that I have an extra fee to pee, I am a resident, and why the fuck can I not use the bathroom?

So that leads us to today. As mentioned before, we have gotten no response from him in the last three weeks via text or email. He has, however been emailing all of the tenants together in a group saying that he was going to come today to clear out some trash from our property and if we had anything to leave it outside for him and he would take it (this is the second time he’ll ever be on property in person and also probably the nicest thing he’s done/will ever do for any of us lol).

With all that being said, I have one item of trash for him to take out. We have an extra litter box that we’ve been meaning to get rid of, but it just so conveniently still happens to be here so this morning I put a little tiny bit of litter and I took a fat shit in it. I did not cover it up and I set it outside for him to pick up and move by himself. I’m not normally as aggressive as this feels and it does feel wrong, but it feels so right. I felt like this is truly just his karma for making a big deal about me using the bathroom, and I’ve already prepared a speech for when he has a question about the massive shit in the cat box- “that’s where I’ve been using the restroom so I can save us all money by me not using the actual bathroom.”

I feel a little psychotic, but the pettiness feels very good….

Is this even legal?

I live in an over priced cabin that I happen to love so much that I've dealt with the world's worst landlord for 4 years.

My cabin is a small studio with no attached bathroom, me and 3 other cabins SHARE a nice but small single person bathroom (inconvenient but it works).

I got a text from my landlord that I owed him an extra $10/ month for my girlfriend using the bathroom (not showering) maybe 10 times a month. With that being said my girlfriend and I have been on an extended trip and haven't even been to my cabin in almost 6 months now?

I just renewed my lease and it doesn't mention anything about guests usage of the bathroom, just the typical if they're there for extended time they need to be added to the lease. Is this even legal? Do I pay him? Do I tell him to fuck off or use the $10 to fix all the things I've asked for years to be fixed?

EDIT: told him we weren’t there and it wasn’t in the lease. He said the other tenants (who I get along with great and also dislike him) said my girlfriend constantly uses the bathroom and it’s $0.30 a day for her to use it lmao
