Sure but I'm saying OP used the right word. A proletarian is inherently fucked, a plebeian may not be.

Sorry to add to this but:

Plebian**

I lived in shared housing for 3 years but it was cheap and there were many people that I wish I could have hanged out with more. Not so happy with apartment lifestyle but my bed and pillow are heavenly. No bugs. Great climate control. Dirty dishes and fridge were the worst. Sometimes random noises bothered me too.


Proletarian was correct, plebe does not have the same meaning.

Oh shi... I thought I googled this. My bad.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

a landlord providing a plunger, even in a furnished place, would be odd. and if you knew your space did not have one, why wouldn't you just get it?? that just seems weird. if the landlord isnt home, you just have to deal with a shitty toilet?

the roommate thing sucks though. make that dumbass clean it up.

Maybe it's a Canada thing but all of the apartments/houses I've ever lived in have had a plunger... I would have the same problem as you for sure =(

Uum, you should probably tell your roommate to schedule a colonoscopy. Also, do you usually take cold showers? If my shower even had a cold water knob, I'd never use it.

Do you not have split knobs in the U.S.? Like you turn the hot a little, and you turn the cold a little, and it mixes and comes out at just the temperature you want. You can't shower in just the hot water, it will scald you.

Not all showers/sinks are like this but it's quite common.

In my experience, most sinks in the U.S. have separate knobs, but showers only have one. It could be different in other parts of the country... and never mind what I said about not using them both if the hot one's scalding. That doesn't sound fun. On a serious note, your roommate probably has an urgent medical condition. I don't know how he wouldn't already realize that himself, though.

Maybe in hotels or some showers, but my showers at home have absolutely always been of the two-knob variety

I heard if you put bleach in your toilet and leave it there for a few hours it unclogs on its own.

I think if the toliet is getting clogged often and suddenly cold water is not working on the shower pipes I'm guessin the place is old and the plumbing is building up like calcium deposit or something.. should probably tell your landlord to get a plumber to check it out lol
but seriously you should just buy a plunger and put it next to the toliet.. if your roomie has the slightest shred of dignity I would think he'd attempt to unclog it after use if he sees the plunger like right there lol.

Sounds like you were an awful housemate. You "told the stupid bitch to fucking clean it?" Yikes.
