To all the landlords out there: if you send out your proposed lease as a Word doc, you might want to read it before you sign it. One landlord will be providing birthday cakes (not vanilla) for his tenants. The tenant posted a photo of the birthday cake clause for the world to see.
Or here is the source....
Funny, I've never seen that clause before

Joe - I think the tenant decided to have some fun with the Word doc before they signed the lease. It looks like the landlord will be providing cakes as a result.
That's funny, I have never seen that before. It should be amended to also allow for cupcakes as many people enjoy that re

Dan, this one is GOOD, and have not ever seen this before. Maybe chocolate would work?

Ed - it doesn't specify, so cupcakes should be fine.
Mark - this is a humorous illustration of a serious flaw (sending out a contract in a Word doc that can be editied, then the landord signing it apparently without reviewing the document) BUT - if you have a good tenant, maybe they should get a birthday cake every year.
Joan - chocolate cake, or chocolate icing? Or both??
I must admit Dan, I have never seen a birthday cake clause before, hopefully there aren't any of my leases.
Hi Joe, you might have a birthday cake clause or worse in your leases if you send out your leases to tenants as Word documents. In this case the tenants had some fun with it.
