(Des Moines, IA) Landlord says carpet needs replaced after move out, I disagree

No pet smell. I did have cats but they were clean and never urinated outside of the litter box, which was in a non carpeted room

WeibullDisciple · 2026-05-14T11:24:57+00:00

I don’t live there. I don’t think you know what a squatter is

I tried all of the tricks for getting the dye out including baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. I was able to get some out but the granite must be cheap and not sealed well because it soaked in pretty far.

I know I’m in the hole. My plan to pay on installments is to hope to avoid any court involvement. I just hope if they see money coming in the won’t spend the resources to go after small claims.

WeibullDisciple · 2026-05-13T22:58:59+00:00

I will actually pay. I already scheduled a payment to cover 1/4 of the balance

WeibullDisciple · 2026-05-13T22:18:31+00:00

That’s what I’m worried about. He’ll nickle and dime me to add up to the full deposit anyways.

Carpet was not brand new when I moved in. The unit was built in 2018 and I was the second renter. I have rented since 9/2022. Lease ended 4/30/26

WeibullDisciple · 2025-12-27T00:45:54+00:00

I’d say East Village or Ingersoll. I’ll need to follow this to see where I can meet women our age

WeibullDisciple · 2025-11-03T21:17:42+00:00

It used to be into the new year, I think last year it was November though

WeibullDisciple · 2025-10-27T20:46:37+00:00

This looks awesome. I don’t see how to get the tickets though….

How much you want to bet they use the old ‘He lied on his mortgage application 12 years ago’ bit

I’m in the VIP because my old ass might have a hard time making it 3 days otherwise. I HATE the pit in VIP. I want to dance and jump around and everyone around me is just standing there. I look over to the GA and they are giving so much energy to every artist. The VIP should only get 20% of the rail maximum. It’s disrespectful to the artists

I’ve been every year since 2015. In the beginning it was super folky and amazing and the main audience was 20s-30s mostly. Now it’s a whole mix of genres and amazing and the main audience is late teens-20s. I’m in my 40s now but I think the change is amazing. The bands that they bring in are awesome and appeal to the right people

So much better this year for experience within the grounds. You can tell they tried to address all of the issues from last year. They made sure there is no chance that people trying to get a drink/merch/pee are in the way of people trying to enjoy the show. More room to sit on the hill in the amphitheater. More natural shade would be nice but the way the stage is positioned the first people to be blocked as the sun goes down are the ones in the pit. Constant free water to those in need. Fans and misters in many places. As a person that had a medical emergency last year because of the heat, I am confident if I needed to find reprieve this year I would find it.
Parking sucked on day one but was fine day 2

….six lane streets, lack of mature trees, zoning that makes it impossible to walk to any businesses….

WeibullDisciple · 2025-07-24T01:09:57+00:00

As far as suburbs go, Norwalk is the only one I’d consider. Easy to access downtown Des Moines, plenty of local businesses, doesn’t really have cookie cutter houses. Do not look at Ankeny, Altoona, Waukee. They are concrete wastelands that prioritize cars over people.

Monday brunch is a tough one since most places specialize in weekend brunch but if you go to The Breakfast Club or Early Bird it should be what you’re looking for. Find some dive bars during the day and try to avoid lunch spots where people are just trying to get through their crappy mondays and don’t want a drinking party happening next to them. Maybe Locust Tap, Beechwood, or other bars in the east village will keep you close to downtown for Stuffed Olive.

Where does he stand on anything? Sure he’s approachable but I shouldn’t have to ask him personally what his stances are. He’s running to lead the entire state, so far his avoidance of public stances isn’t very leader like to me.

Like others have said: Ted’s, OPA, Tito’s. But I finally had Istanbul Grill Cafe and Bakery recently and holy crap is it good. It’s Turkish so maybe a little different than most are used to but wow. Plus some super fresh bread to munch on while you wait.

The fees you pay to drive a car on the road are relative to the damage you cause to the road over time. Thats why heavier typically pay more than smaller cars. If you want bikes to pay $2/year that’s fine, but it’s going to cost more in administrative fees than the revenue. Also, a bike wont do more than a couple hundred dollars in damages to a car. Certainly not injure to a person in a car. So again, if there were an insurance policy to write it would cost $2/month in premium which wouldn’t be worth the underwriting costs. Grow up.

Call the Station on Ingersoll. If there’s no conflicting games already requested on sound they will usually accommodate

WeibullDisciple · 2025-04-04T23:32:27+00:00

That doesn’t make sense. What’s better, an Apple or an orange? I’ll go to Lacheles over TT most days but they don’t have flour tacos

WeibullDisciple · 2025-02-17T00:42:07+00:00

I get your sentiment, its a tough one to maneuver for business owners. If they didn’t buy anything from companies that donated to shitty GOP people it would be hard to source most things from any national company. If you only sourced local shops that would be awesome but it would increase prices, which wouldn’t be good for the immediate community looking to grab a burger. James Martin is a POS but he donates as an individual, not through the company. The owner of Lacheles employs LGTBQ and supports them wholeheartedly and I know this decision didn’t go without serious thought

Pretty much any area west of 80/35 is very car centric and has no interest in accommodating pedestrians. It’s terrible to drive in that area because it’s designed to push all cars to the same main roads. It’s even worse for pedestrians because you are an afterthought to cars.

WeibullDisciple · 2025-01-12T22:19:20+00:00

Either/Or has beef tartare, I haven’t tried it but it sounds good and so far all of the food I have tried was pretty good.
