'This is only the beginning of the craziness': Greedy landlord raises roommate's rent for using two ceiling fans in summer

Living with a landlord is like having an RA roommate in college. They're probably gonna narc on you at some point. We all bend the rules every now and then, as is our right. We have to exercise our own selfishness sometimes, or else it's going to come out in weird ways. Adults (at least most of the ones I know) need to enact a little rebellion every now and then to remind us we're alive. But if you're living with the rule enforcer, that becomes a little harder to do. 

But the wild thing is, that's not even what happened in this recent Reddit story from a tenant who ran into landlord troubles. They weren't even breaking the rules. They were just running the fans in their room, which to my mind, is what they're there for. But that didn't stop this overreaching landlord from being an overreaching landlord. Read on for the details.
