Oct 5 2009Spider Drawing Guy Is Back At It, With Sharks
David Thorne, a man best known for drawing a picture of a seven-legged spider to settle an unpaid bill, is back at it -- this time staving off another rental property inspection with shark drawings. And while David may never top the spider bit, this one did have its moments. Namely the end. Unfortunately, it also has a lot of words, which I mostly skimmed over. Not unlike the way you read Geekologie. Kidding -- like any of you get past the picture. Your sister's a whore!
Hit the jump to see how the whole ordeal played out.
David's Website (with a bunch more antics)
Thanks to deadbodyman and Gino, who don't have to deal with landlords because they're both squatters.

Haha. Funny.
9. Helmut the Cat - October 5, 2009 4:29 PM
WillC has it, this guy is a looser. He's akin to the crack house down the block but with the addition of smartass and MSpaint.
10. Kanye Westicles - October 5, 2009 4:37 PM
AWESOME!! That shark is pretty good but it's callled a GREAT WHITE shark not a negro.

When life gives you Zombies... Drawing a picture of a brain and hoping the Zombies choose it over you will result in you becoming dinner.
12. Chag4 - October 5, 2009 4:38 PM
Best ending ever. Picture Peter's face! I love this idiot.
13. Poo Nau - October 5, 2009 4:38 PM
I made many laughs during this reading time. The small man was my best laugh.
14. Closet Nerd - October 5, 2009 4:39 PM
I love the last email subject: NOM NOM NOM
This guy had a pretty funny back and forth with a neighbor about a party the neighbor was throwing.
15. Scruff Mcgruff - October 5, 2009 4:44 PM
@9 kanye westicles this guy may be a loser but.....Zombeleton has the best comment EVER!!!!
16. Dream - October 5, 2009 4:45 PM
Cant stop laughing.
I wonder if the spider was the one from his 7-legged spider.
17. John - October 5, 2009 4:46 PM
Man, I respect this dude. His site 27b/6 is off the hook. So many funny stories there.
18. Hawk - October 5, 2009 4:58 PM
Too funny! Guy probably stakes out his apartment writing notes on the same clipboard!
19. Nick Sydney - October 5, 2009 5:18 PM

XD
20. Conspiracy - October 5, 2009 5:20 PM
So has the landlord stabbed him in the face yet for being an ass hole? I will give him it's funny to me, but if i was the land lord it would piss me off.
21. finfan - October 5, 2009 5:21 PM
I would have some sort of drawing war with him....
22. lissy - October 5, 2009 5:21 PM

23. JFreezy - October 5, 2009 5:35 PM
Oh man this retard is freaking GREAT!!
24. Me - October 5, 2009 5:44 PM
Funny stuff...
25. JG - October 5, 2009 5:48 PM
very funny, but seems a little sketch that the company name is misspelled on the inspection report... unless i'm just not familiar with the 'managment' business.
26. ShitBitch Carl - October 5, 2009 5:53 PM
The spider was hilarious, obnoxious, but funny. This is moronic and aggravating. But I did read the whole thing, so I guess I can relate.
27. noodle - October 5, 2009 6:04 PM
that was the greatest shit ever!
28. ALZU - October 5, 2009 6:20 PM
I went soi soi soi when I read the end.

29. Milkman - October 5, 2009 6:26 PM
This is dumb. The guy's a slob who damaged the sh*thole he's renting, and now he's "getting back at the man" by harassing some college dropout who can't get a better job than to inspect apartments.
Way to go dude, you win at life.
30. SlowMonkey - October 5, 2009 6:39 PM
I wonder how well his grilfriend does on pinning him down on a date for the wedding.
31. Jujubee - October 5, 2009 7:00 PM
@4 - Nah, jew's arent really that funny........except for Jon Stewart, that's their most valuable jew
32. boo - October 5, 2009 7:12 PM
Loled so fxxking hard.
33. Mike Hawk - October 5, 2009 7:25 PM
I bet the shark is still hungry, as the meal was so small.
34. College student - October 5, 2009 7:33 PM
"Jesus, that wolkswagen would make me at least 6 feet tall!"
I laughed hard.
35. One Really Furious Magician - October 5, 2009 8:32 PM
I read the whole thing and laughed so much, it made my day golden.
@ Mike Hawk: oh lulz :P
36. Beastman AIDS - October 5, 2009 8:36 PM
This was awesome - on par with 7 legged spider in my opinion.
37. theycallmeleo - October 5, 2009 8:56 PM
This was just outstanding, im glad this was posted!
38. VEA - October 5, 2009 8:57 PM
That made my day.
39. AntBriWes - October 5, 2009 9:56 PM
I love this guy, and by love, I mean if he were a pillow and I were a Chihuahua... Just sayin', the Geekologie writer and his dino friend should double date with me and my pillow sometime.
40. mrrgl - October 5, 2009 10:43 PM
The spider one is very funny, largely because he's so polite and innocent and the person on the other end is being polite also. Spewing random crap and making up stories doesn't make for humor. The person he's "messing with" doesnt even care. I hope he gets evicted.
Here's a great joke; the police come to my apartment on a noise complaint. I jump around in a gorilla suit and recite Dante's Inferno. They punch me in the stomach and taser me. Golly I'm sure a funny guy.

42. XxNecroJeStErxX - October 5, 2009 11:16 PM
Daisy. Where are youuu?
43. Justin - October 5, 2009 11:33 PM
@mrrgl (40), Your story was piss weak. Really piss weak. The reason David Thornes emails are popular is that they are well constructed and clever. You are not clever and I doubt very much well constructed.
44. Red Ruffensor - October 5, 2009 11:44 PM
The spider thing was great, but this is just annoying. Your fifteen minutes are up, now stop with the stupid stuff before you wind up having someone large come over and beat you to a messy pulp.
45. James Tryon - October 5, 2009 11:51 PM
good stuff, but i might think about cleaning up the place a little.
Sounds like Peter is friends with my HOA, I got a letter saying that i needed to trim my bushes, so i cut them all down. Now i cant get in trouble for having my bush to big.
46. Heather - October 6, 2009 12:00 AM
That is so damn hardcore.
This guy is my hero.
47. BAM! Nasty - October 6, 2009 1:29 AM
ha ha i want to meet this guy these are amazing! P.s. nether is mine
48. Eskimobob - October 6, 2009 2:46 AM
That was seriously awsome. It also reminds me, i should clean my apartment.... nah.
49. Jessica - October 6, 2009 3:30 AM
To 44. Red Ruffensor, he has had more than the spider and he has a website. The spider was good I give you that but his Party in apartment 3 story is way better than the spider email. The one about Strata is is also good and the love letter from dick are unbelievably well written. Get a life and a sense of humour and take them for what they are meant. Fun.
50. J - October 6, 2009 3:33 AM
You have to take it in context. On the website it says that Peter the inspector guy listed that he swam with sharks once. It doesn't make sense to have the pictures of sharks without that?

i kind of feel like this whole thing is fake.
54. Robert - October 6, 2009 8:09 AM
This guy is an ass and needs a good slap (or ass kicking depending on how stupid he really is).
55. Jaded Icon - October 6, 2009 9:39 AM
I think this is pretty funny, but only because I think its fake.
56. You Are All MIssing The Pointy - October 6, 2009 9:49 AM
For all of you who've ever been on the receiving end of something akin to what David has gone through, you know who you are, this is the bees knees. Stick it to the man Dave. Yeah!
57. Walla - October 6, 2009 1:43 PM
Yup, agree that David is the man. I can kinda see why some comments take offence to this but seriously, drop the shit and get a sense of humour already.
Peter is obviously a stuck up dick with a pencil in his a$$, making unannounced inspections and throwing his administrative weight around (sounds like he's got small man syndrome too).
David's just exercising his right to say 'fcuk you' in the funniest way possible - hell yeah!
58. Geekolojew - October 6, 2009 2:11 PM
Must See!!!

59. Largo Lagrande - October 6, 2009 10:03 PM
What makes this so hilarious, is that it is obivous to all involved that the correspondence has no effect on the intended follow-up inspection. David knows this. Peter knows this. Yet, Mr. Williams keeps taking the bait. Who can really blame David then for keeping up with the trolling?
60. Frank - October 7, 2009 1:53 AM
I hope this guy gets evicted and never gets near an internet connection again. I'm thumbing this blog way way down, and reporting it as duplicate content... Because seriously, this copypasta shit has to stop.
61. robb - October 7, 2009 4:49 AM
david thorne is the man.
he's so full of win.
epic win.
62. Robert - October 7, 2009 6:35 AM
Bring on more genius! I love this dude. Thanks, stumbled....
63. jen - October 7, 2009 11:29 AM
that just made my week!!!
64. Richard - October 8, 2009 6:09 PM
well taking into account that his spider drawing sold on ebay for 10,000$ i would say hes a genius.
65. holiday tenerife - October 13, 2009 12:50 AM
Hi..
I will give him it's funny to me, but if i was the land lord it would piss me off.
66. steve - October 16, 2009 4:24 PM
Seriously, this guy David is a moron. I think his IQ must be the same as his shoe size. The crap he writes (and draws) is not even funny but moronic. I will not waste my time in future looking at the rubbish..
67. John Mulligan - December 7, 2009 12:34 PM
Brilliant! http://www.noplaceinthesun.com/page13.htm
68. chrisdavidsbrother - January 29, 2010 8:34 PM
David Thorne raped his grandma. And his son. His website is shit. I could write better stuff in my sleep. And no I am not jealous. he cant rite for shit.
69. T-VO - March 11, 2010 2:59 PM
@68 Neither can you. write is spelled with a "W" dumb ass
70. T-VO - March 11, 2010 3:07 PM
oh yeah, and this made me laugh my ass off, as well as my co-workers. its not supposed to be about his writing, its supposed to be funny because his disregard for people who are trying to get things out of him. like asking him for the money he owes, or fixing his apartment. i would do something like that to just to get back at "The Man".
