Rule number one when staying at an Airbnb…don’t ever snoop around…and secondly, most certainly never attempt to unlock a locked closet door.
Ashley Fryer was staying at a rented Airbnb and decided it was a good idea to snoop around, breaking rule number one. What she found when she broke rule number two, well…it’s a little sketch.
What Fryer found was basically a Criminal Minds starter kit.
Which included:
- Two guns, which while not unusual in America, in Europe means you’re either planning a crime or a revolution
- A highly erotic painting. Perhaps the owner was waiting for his contractor to finish the renovation on the Red Room. And…
- A TYPEWRITER MADE OF HUMAN TEETH!!!!!
After the discover Fryer didn’t call the police, instead she took to Twitter — because that is obviously the next logical step.
Fryer said she felt “a bit mean posting a photo of someone else’s place,” clearly less of a sociopath than whoever made that typewriter. She also rhetorically asked, “We’re going to die in here, aren’t we?” Which is funny, since she’s still alive at the time of publication. Her Twitter, however, is now private.
Twitter responded as you’d think, advising her to shoot the typewriter with the guns, bite the guns with the typewriter, and do pretty much everything short of torching the whole place and sending it back to the hell it crawled out of. Author Judy Picoult even offered to write a novel based on the tweet, though licensing terms have yet to be negotiated.
So what’s the lesson here? Oh yea, don’t snoop around and unlock doors that don’t belong to you. The door was locked for a reason — a shady ass reason — but it was still locked.
