My little brother is such a character.
He’s always up to something funny plus going on some adventure… This was most recently demonstrated when he decided to move to Ukraine, but if that sounds like a completely random endpoint to you, my friend and I agree, however none of us can understand why my brother decided to move to a third world country where he can’t speak enough of the language to pay his own energy bills or manage his indoor air.
He has an house that his landlord manages for him. He never pays his own bills or adjusts his own indoor air handling devices because he does not know how to. Thankfully, his Heating and A/C system plus indoor air handling devices are shared with his neighbor. They have a central heating plus cooling system that services both of their apartments. The apartments are affixed by a short length of HVAC duct work. The thermostat is contained within his neighbor’s apartment, for many months so there was no concern with the indoor air hot plus cold temperatures that his friend wanted to set. Then, one afternoon my brother realized that his friend was gone. The central heating plus cooling system with operating an outdated air temperature control program that was not appropriate for the new outdoor weather conditions. When he asked his landlord about the new air quality concern that he was experiencing, his landlord nodded grimly; Apparently, my brother was going to have to learn how the foreign thermostat worked rather hastily.., and because his friend had been arrested for murder. They found bones hidden in his HVAC duct, which was just beyond my brother’s air vents.
