    I am submitting this to the CF.net ethics board to see what people think.

    I have a friend staying over at my house for a few days. I've known him for more than 10 years and in school he was my roommate for awhile. Generally a good person and not a douchebag or a moocher.

    Here is the situation. He came in pretty late last night and I was pretty tired so I went to sleep pretty much right after he came in. I guess he stayed up awhile and he had been drinking with some other friends of his. So this morning I find a used fork with peanut butter on it in the sink and when I check my jar of peanut butter it looks like he was eating peanut butter straight from the jar. Now usually I don't eat peanut butter straight from the jar, but have occasionally.

    So Clutchfans would you be cool with a friend eating your peanut butter straight from the jar without asking or not cool?

    FYI this isn't that big of a deal and am probably not going to say anything to him unless this happens again but am posting here more out of boredom and curiosity about what people think.

    Not cool at all. What is he, 10? And he should have cleaned the fork, too, not just leave it in the sink.

    He probably had the beer/weed munchies and it was probably torture for him to lay off the other food items in your house.

    So I would see it as him doing you a favor and maybe you need to apologize to him.

    Not cool, tell him that (frankly) because you have known him that long and know he is better than that.

    I'm only cool with it if I don't find out. He could at least have the decency to hide it from you.

    I drink straight from the carton at a lot of my friends houses, but the trick is not getting caught. If you don't get caught, then no one's worse for the ware.

    not "cool" of course, but i wouldn't get upset about it. at least with my very closest friends, we know to forgive and forget if there's alcohol involved. but i'd imagine it would be nice if he apologized.

    stuff like that generally doesn't bother me if the person isn't sick.

    I'd ask him if he ate straight from the jar before tossing it. He may have been at a loss at finding your knives. (And who uses a fork? At least use a spoon if you're eating from the jar.)

    And by asking, you pretty much let him know the right way of helping himself, and the wrong way.

    Again, it's no biggie, but it brings it up without sounding petty.

    What if it was only one fork-full? (i.e. no double dipping)

    Just take a dump on his face while he's sleeping, from my experience this usually sends a pretty strong message.

    Unless there is some sort of mushroom shaped indention in your peanut butter, I wouldn't worry about.

    Is "eating peanut butter straight from the jar" a reference to something else? ;)
