How socially incompetent can you get? Like this guy just spends all day inside on his computer, looking up dumb stuff like horror stories and writing articles for a bad website. He just engages me in the most awkward conversations whenever we are around. I mean, like why even bother to try to understand where he is coming from, or to help him out- he is just that much of a loser. Another thing, he has awful taste in music, and he watches waaay to much anime. I just wish he would be more like me and get out of the dorm and do something useful once in a while. Like this is College, why doesn't he get out and hook up with some women or something like every other "normal" student- no he is just anti-social and never leaves his room. Ughh, it just angers me so much. I mean, isn't there anyone that will talk to him, or engage him in some sort of activity? I mean I'm a nice guy, but I'm too busy/lazy to do it. Sorry, just had to get that rant off of my chest- and yes the snoring does suck, I mean why the hell isn't everyone as perfect as I am? | ||

Btw, Chinese people throw keys/money/anything from windows all the time. I'm talking about >10 floors, sometimes they tie the object to a rock to break the current. You just need to have an open mind. | ||

im chinese, kinda socially awkward, and talk so little that my voice sounds weird when i actually use it... me and my roommate are completely different, different interests/etc. we dont have much to talk about but we hang out together and with the same people mostly. I would consider him a good friend though - i got his back and i hope he's got mine. | ||

did the iron + paper bag trick and got rid of the wax, however there were still oil spots (though hardly noticeable). i told him about it when he got home from work and he told me it was no problem he was returning the couch. another time his girlfriend (also a roommate) started yelling and essentially throwing a tantrum at me for not cleaning up a mess i made in the den (was my fault but did not warrant the reaction). i had just walked in the door with friends who were visiting from colorado and they were just standing there while she went at me. i felt very embarrassed (i was only 18 at the time). same house, girlfriend's mom moves into the basement about 6 months into the lease. she cant pay rent (no money) so she offers to clean the place as her rent. at the end of the month i get a bill for cleaning supplies that she bought to clean the house. turns out she was a distributor for some MLM company that sold cleaning supplies (organic/not animal tested/hippie shit), and bought the cleaning supplies through them. they were about 3x as costly as going to wal mart (not to mention i shouldnt have to pay for the supplies, it was part of the rent). i just made a decision to let the crazy people be crazy and just accept that. fights between roommates tend to be over stupid shit anyway. just be thankful you arent living with a girl (nightmare to live with......). im living solo right now, but if i had to get a new roommate, i would probably choose a gay guy, for obvious reasons. | ||

This is a massive step up from my previous housemate, who, after months of passive-aggressive bitchery, decided she couldn't stand to live with me anymore after I didn't adequately (to her standard) clean the stove-top one day, left, and subsequently threatened to sue me when it wound up taking 6 weeks to replace her instead of a month. This was made all the more awkward by working in the same office space at the university. Some months later, we're on speaking terms and even a bit friendly (to even my own surprise), but goddamn, never again. That all sounds ridiculous, I know, but I couldn't make that shit up if I tried. | ||

Can't you just shut down and drown everything out? I mean I've passed out on couches at parties near blaring speakers etc. No way I can't sleep with noise around me no matter what. They need to make individual rooms shared kitchen in the US thats what its usually like in the UK. | ||

Can't you just shut down and drown everything out? I mean I've passed out on couches at parties near blaring speakers etc. Try doing it dead sober. Totally different ballgame Chalz. Nothing tilts me more than snorers or people who wake me. Dealing with food theives is fun. There is only one way to prevent it from happening: negative reinforcement. Create something that’s totally irrestistable and leave it on the counter—a manwhich works good. For the perpetrator, it looks like a perfect opportunity. However, only you know that your little harmless sammy is a fuckin’ IED loaded with wasabi, hotsauce and jalapenos. PACK THAT SHIT FULL, but don’t leave any of it hanging out the sides. The best time to make this thing is before you head out for the night. Take it out like you’re going to eat, ‘forget’ it and leave. The sight of it will torture him all night, before succumbing to drunk munchies. For added measure, you can leave a dr ink next to the food and spike it with vinegar or something! | ||
