 Anything wrong with this? Ask no questions, tell no lies — in the good old days, you’d say maybe no, but nowadays not so much. The guy on the lease eventually got rumbled and was expelled from his school on the gloriously bombastic grounds of “''operating a brothel during school hours''”. Note, fellow lovers of [[The Victory of Form over Substance|form over substance]], that it was not renting the place ''per so'' that sunk him, but doing it ''during double biology'' — fnarr fnarr — if you catch my meaning.
