Talk:the landlord

the landlord
"A shark, imagined as the owner of a surf break (or the whole ocean), and to be avoided." I suggest a move to landlord. --Volants 15:52, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Sounds like tosh. Is this some sort of imagined deity like the Invisible Pink Unicorn? Mglovesfun (talk) 07:45, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It's figurative use. It might not be attestable. It is possible that there is a general figurative sense of "landlord" as one who effectively collects rent for something that one might think is freely available. I wouldn't be surprised if it was used with respect to someone collecting money for protection:. DCDuring TALK 10:13, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
