my older brother went to university in ireland
in his third year, he and his friends got a house overlooking the beach, real open fireplace, more than one toilet between the four of them, all very nice and civilised. however, shortly after they moved in, two things happened.

1 - my brother got a new girlfriend and spent nearly all his time at her house, which wasn't full of skanky student boys
2 - his housemate got a new dealer and spent nearly all his time at their house, taking drugs

one day my brother came home from a lecture to find a big smoking black wreck where the house used to be. when he found his housemates, his relief that they were unharmed turned to utter rage. it turned out that they'd had the dealer round and they'd been having a bit of a party, when someone had decided to "move the fire" because "it'll look better in the middle of the floor". needless to say, this had ended well.

but my brother's rage was nothing to my father's when he found out about the incident via a solicitor's letter a few days later. apparently my brother was the only one who'd bothered to sign the lease, so the landlord was holding him solely responsible. as guarantor, could my father now cough up for all the damage...

i was too young to be told all the details, so i don't know what happened. i do know my dad didn't pay, so i assume the insurer did. and that i learned a lot of new swearwords during the breakfast when he opened that letter. and no, i have no idea what sort of drugs they were taking.

Yeah, drugs are really like that
I heard that if you take LSD you think you can fly and jump off a rooftop.
