Without a written thermostat treaty rule, recurring friction usually stays vague and repetitive. This version reduces ambiguity by converting the issue into 3 visible clauses that both sides can review.
What's Inside
- The living room temperature is legally frozen at 72°F (22°C). Unauthorized adjustment is an act of war.
- If the Plaintiff is cold while wearing a t-shirt, they must put on a hoodie before touching the dial.
- The Defendant may not open windows while the AC is running, under penalty of paying the entire electric bill.
