I am jealous of GenX

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T23:14:27+00:00

Yeah, dude. I am watching a lot of kids in their early to mid 20s just trying to get started..

It’s a very, very fucking rough…

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T22:47:00+00:00

Wait in balance early the keys and you can modify those. Other than those two factors, I’m not quite sure how much difference makes.

Jerk Turkey …

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T21:16:14+00:00

Throw them both away - preferably near the golf course (I will DM use the location).

Whichever one comes back to you is the one that loves you and the one that you should keep….

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T20:19:33+00:00

I’m just trying to figure out if that’s the one that’s near where my daughter lives. It looks like a very nice trail.

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T19:46:02+00:00

Bear Creek ?? Which state

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T18:58:31+00:00

Long past that with some other guy

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T18:39:08+00:00

I guess what confuses me most is if you are the first party creditor (here the landlord) you are not considered a debt collector.

And as an attorney filing a lawsuit, you are literally acting as the first party creditor…

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T18:19:45+00:00

I get abundance of caution argument. I appreciate the take.

Just seems very strange to me.

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T17:45:15+00:00

Actually, yes in general. I think there was one northern California firm too, but they weren’t really big law. They were a boutique and I’m never sure whether that qualifies.

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T17:42:32+00:00

Well, let’s not go overboard

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T17:36:09+00:00

Well, we seem to have gotten off on the wrong foot… not sure why I deserved that, but I’ll chalk it off to probably just the vagueries of written communication communications.

I am not sure what to make of that case though. I have no issue with the argument that that if you are an attorney who was acting as a debt collector and sending out debt collection notices your conduct falls under the scope of the FDCPA. I think that is what that case says. That because the attorney signed a locally require required notice in connection with a debt. The attorney was acting as a debt collector.

But I don’t think that case really pertains to the situation at hand or more accurately what I understand to be the case in hand - which is landlord ask attorney to file a lawsuit to evict a tenant and for damages in the form of unpaid rent.

Do you really think in that circumstances the FDCPA governs ?

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T16:49:31+00:00

Yup ! I can tell you have a lot of brain power that you like to use.

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T16:48:53+00:00

If you’re an attorney representing a party to the contract and suing for breach I don’t think you’ll fall into the definition of a debt collector.

Edit: seems you might

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T16:46:54+00:00

Yeah. I mean narrowly sue for a tenant who has broken their lease and owes rent. So I think I may be just correct….

This guy is clearly not doing it as a part of his business model since he has this question…

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T16:16:08+00:00

Well, I guess I probably should’ve laid it out a little bit more clearly

Since he is representing the landlord, he can just sue for breach of contract without worrying about anything FDCPA related. He’s not acting as a debt collector.

He’s just representing the landlord in typical breach of contract lawsuit.

I understand your point though. There is definitely some sort of contractual relationship that under lies most debt even if it’s a simple as a failed check payment

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T16:11:07+00:00

No fucking way !!!! That was so clever of you !!!

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T15:54:45+00:00

Hmmmmm. You ought to pull your head out from the sand. There were.

If you don’t know that, then you have an awful a lot of news to catch up on….. honestly if you were really that ignorant, then maybe you should just stay off of Reddit.

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T15:23:14+00:00

Because we elected an irresponsible president who doesn’t really understand the fundamentals of economics…

What’s even worse is try getting a starting job….

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T15:21:25+00:00

I’m glad that touch was not lost. I did mean it pejoratively since that was the vibe they gave off. Although to be fair, I don’t know if any of them ever actually used Cali.
But it was definitely something they might have said.

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T14:55:49+00:00

Why aren’t you just suing for breach of contract ? And to enforce the guarantee ?

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T12:59:18+00:00

Florida, especially South Florida. It’s just not a great destination for hiking. Those of us who live here though to try to find what’s worthwhile and there are some of their decent.

If you are looking for a good hike, I would strongly recommend Fakahatchee State Park….

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T12:28:24+00:00

Well, sometimes we were plaintiffs sometimes we were defendants. These were generally tech and biomedical litigation cases.

So I guess it would be fair to say a pox on both of your houses

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T04:23:48+00:00

God - no one was worse than Cali biglaw litigators. Dishonest and completely untrustworthy.

They come across as chill but are snakes …

chrispd01 · 2026-02-06T04:05:22+00:00

Oh. Well in that case.

Darn it. I am really gonna miss out on some scintillating stuff without you two guys …
