So, when I got home today, I realized that my sink was getting a bit full and started to do dishes. This was going as normal until I realized that my sink wasn't draining. A bit of fiddling by trying to run the garbage disposal to force things to clear failed to do any good, so I called my landlord and asked her to send a plumber.
The plumber arrived about 45 minutes later and began to work the sink with a narrow auger. This seemed to be going well, when suddenly he said that he needed some rags. I looked into my kitchen to see a giant blob of mostly black water spilling onto the linoleum. I quickly threw a bunch of my towels on it and managed to contain most of the damage. Apparently, he broke the sink's trap while trying to clear the jam. Of course, he didn't have an extra trap with him, so he's gone out to (hopefully) fetch a new one.
I find all of this annoying.
