It can disrupt the flow of the text and make the reader question the writer's competence.

Share some bad landlord horror stories.
There was a case where a landlord entered the tenant's apartment without any notice. He would just barge in whenever he felt like it, claiming he had the right to check on the property. The tenant felt so violated and unsafe in their own home. It was a nightmare for them. They had to constantly be on guard, not knowing when the landlord would show up unannounced.
Share some bad roommate horror stories.
My former roommate was extremely noisy at night. They would have friends over late and they'd be shouting, playing loud music. I tried to talk to them about it, but they didn't care. I couldn't get a good night's sleep for weeks. It affected my studies and my mood. I ended up moving out as soon as I could.

Share your bad date horror stories.
My worst date was when the guy showed up two hours late. And when he finally arrived, he didn't even apologize. He just started talking about how busy he was as if that made it okay. Then during the date, he was constantly on his phone texting. It was really annoying.
