"I'm not a crook, I'm an artist!"
*two minutes later*
"I don't know you man."
*kills a guy*
*immediately talk about crooks again*

I’ve used airbnb 3-4 times and 3 times the owner said pretend you’re a friend and try to avoid the front lobby during business hours. HAHAHAH

[nickisme]

I wonder if they made him an artist just to make the con-artist joke

[CaReFrEe]

I stayed at one air bnb, we had the air con on most the day. I didn't notice initially but by the end of the day I realised I'd didn't feel well. We ended up looking inside the air con and found it absolutely covered in mould. When we complained they were so damn rude. We complained to air bnb who could only give us a partial refund but that bnb is still operating. No health regulations at all.

I had the host yell and scream at me and I told Airbnb I felt unsafe. Internet turned off, suddenly phone not working and this was in a foreign country. Airbnb never reimbursed me and in fact they let me get a bad rating when I told them I felt unsafe. Never again.

Adam looks like jimmy neutron in a normal way.

“This is my house now!” That was funny.

I'm watching this while on vacation in a airbnb apartment in a building full of airbnb rooms

THIS GUY IS THE ARTIST WHO SOLD THE PAINTINGS OF EYES IN THE VIDEO WHERE ADAM RUINS THE ART MARKET

I’m just waiting for “Adam ruins homelessness”

[RainbowBubbleSparkle]

So...AirBnb is like the residential version of Uber.



Nice.

You should do why zero tolerance schools don't make people safer

Airbnb is an actual problem in my city bc there's almost no more affordable living spaces for students or young families, yet some people bought SEVERAL apartments just to put them on Airbnb. There have been cases of hundreds of people coming to the same apartment viewing bc they are desperate at this point. I loved Airbnb for the cheap prices but yeah... I'm going back to hotels.

I stayed in an Airbnb for 2 weeks when I went to Japan in '16. The apartment was turned into a hostel. There were like 10 of us in total. My room alone had 6 of us in it (our beds were stacked like cubicles). The day I was leaving, I noticed the power was out. I just assumed there was a black out... nope! I was told that they were actually kicking out the tenant along with the guests. I then found out Airbnb was illegal in Japan at that time (not sure if it still is). I got lucky that I was already leaving but it sucked for the new guests coming in. Oh, and the host did what Adam mentioned. He rented out multiple apartments and turned them all into hostels.

They made it look like they pushed the guy out of a tall building, but then showed in the same shot that the floor outside the other windows was less than a foot down... just noticed that

[Mrvideosandgames]

I came here to find out what Airbnb was.

Another reason why it's terrible for towns: all authenticity is lost. There's no real population left. It's particularly bad in historical European towns. All the people there are tourists plus some people who run the shops but commute every day.

You're not a real tech start-up until your product kills somebody.

Wait so am I the only one who is surprised about the corncob as toilet paper thing

I love learning from Adam. I would really enjoy learning the truth about homelessness.
