This sort of ruins our buzz on account of how sad it is. Then we realize he didn\u2019t mention Tiffany. Mel goes, \u201cFuck Tiffany! She\u2019s a nasty bitch that smells like infected budussy!\u201d The sentiment warrants a shot. Cheers! I go, \u201cFuck Lloyd because that motherfucker wants to rape the both of us!\u201d Mel goes, \u201cAnd fuck Mark for being a piece of shit cheater with a tiny dick!\u201d I wish every day at Victoria Lawn could be like this. Mel tells me she\u2019s supposed to have a date tonight.<\/p>\n

I go, \u201cFuck yeah, dude. Good for you.\u201d We take a shot. \u201cI haven\u2019t heard from April since the other night.\u201d She asks why, so I tell her, and the look of horror that spreads across her face bears an uncanny resemblance to the one April had when she escaped my apartment. She goes, \u201cJesus Christ, David.\u201d I go, \u201cYeah, she was out of my league anyway.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mel goes, \u201cNo shit, just give her some time. Honestly, I\u2019m just amazed neither of you noticed until it was too late. You didn\u2019t taste anything at all?\u201d I start getting a chub, so I change the subject by asking who the lucky guy is. Mel rolls her eyes and says, \u201cThis personal trainer at my gym.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s an asshole with the intelligence of a turd, but he\u2019s hot and I have needs.\u201d \u201cWhat\u2019s his name?\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s really bad.\u201d \u201cIs it Kyle?\u201d \u201cHis name\u2019s Hartley.\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s precious.\u201d OceanofPDF.com It takes over a month for Rick and corporate to narrow down a few poor fuckers as his potential replacement. One of us let it out that Rick is leaving and that his position is open, so we get about a dozen applications from some of the residents. It\u2019s a glorious freak show.<\/p>\n

Most of these people haven\u2019t had a steady job in over a decade but wholeheartedly believe that paying some of their rent on time some of the time makes them ideal candidates. They come in dripping with beads of yellow sweat, smelling like minced garlic and onions. They come in with big dreams and high expectations. My favorite of all the resident applicants is the lady from 302A.<\/p>\n

She has a mouthful of silver teeth and a plethora of tooth gems. She walks in real slow and gives the office a long onceover like she\u2019s planning to run this bitch soon enough. She hands Mel a massive pan of freshly baked cupcakes then goes into Rick\u2019s office and puts her handwritten resume on his desk without uttering a single word.<\/p>\n

She just smiles and winks at us, motioning for us to eat her rainbow-sprinkled baked goods. Mel says they\u2019re probably poisoned.<\/p>\n

\u201cWild, sharp, and hilarious, the stories in Leasing refuse to be confined by the walls they exist within\u2014D.T. Robbins is a force to be reckoned with.\u201d\u2014CHELSEA HODSON, editor of Rose Books and author of Tonight I\u2019m Someone Else \u201cFast, fun, and fully grounded, Leasing is a no-nipples dive into a low-rent lifestyle. It sprints and crackles. Glistens and heaves. D.T. Robbins is a bold voice\u2014an exhilarating raconteur.\u201d\u2014BRIAN ALLEN CARR, author of Bad Foundations \u201cLeasing is a feat of hypnosis\u2014sucking you into its world, reminding you of some of the worst moments of your life, your shittiest living conditions, people you\u2019re happy are in your past instead of present…<\/p>\n

all while making you enjoy the experience. And every now and then, the writing breaks that spell, reaching down into something deeper, or up into the heavens, or straight off the page and right into your heart, and shows you something special that reminds you why you read.\u201d\u2014AARON BURCH, author of Year of the Buffalo \u201cLeasing is a buck wild novel about the dead-end jobs we endure in our ridiculous quest to stay alive.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a little like The Florida Project set in Southern California, or Harry Crews writing an episode of The Office while high on acid, only the office is in hell, and the acid is actually PCP. D.T. Robbins is the patron saint of fuckups, and his sick, perverted world will make you holy.\u201d\u2014KEVIN MALONEY, author of The Red-Headed Pilgrim \u201cLeasing is about the invisible forces crushing people until they collapse under their own despair.<\/p>\n

Also, a hilarious story of workplace friendships and romance. Also, one man\u2019s tale of how (not) to vomit on opportunity. D.T. Robbins has centrifuged human misery to reveal its sweet centre.\u201d\u2014 CHARLENE ELSBY, author of Violent Faculties and The Devil Thinks I\u2019m Pretty \u201c[Leasing is] fucking funny, so moving, such an incredible ride\u2014utter genius and hilarity from D.T.<\/p>\n

Robbins.\u201d\u2014LEXI KENT-MONNING, author of The Burden of Joy \u201cScatological, nihilistic, and absurd\u2026 [Leasing] has the narrative velocity of a racecar with all the bolts loosened. We move quickly, but we\u2019re not in control, not safe at all\u2026 something gross happens\u2026 something sad happens\u2026 [like] other House of Vlad titles, specifically [Jon Lindsey\u2019s] Body High and [Tex Gresham\u2019s] Violent Candy, but whereas those books sought to occasionally transcend the scuzz and grime, Leasing luxuriates in the squalor.\u201d\u2014KYLE SEIBEL, author of Hey You Assholes \u201cThe short bursts of chaos that are the scenes in Leasing form a cohesive whole much in the same way the mind threads together flashes in a dream.<\/p>\n

Except here it\u2019s more nightmare than dream. And the language itself is its own character. Robbins\u2019s prose certainly isn\u2019t spare or lacking description.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
