    I know what you mean...

    My roommate at arizona state always used my trashcan, when he had his own 10 ft away.

    This is all you can come up with to b**** about? If that's the worst roommate problem you have then sit back and consider yourself lucky.

    My roommate listens to rap 24/7.

    Annoying rap. I officially hate all rap because of him.

    He watches BET, 24/7. Or MTV is rap is on.

    He thinks the song Bohemian Rhapsody is "Gay music".

    He hates country music.

    He acts like he is black, and is a thug. He talks like he is black too, but he's really Pakistani.

    He plays NBA Street like all the time.

    He cuts his hair like once a week, and it gets all over the sink. He doesn't clean all of it up.

    He uses my razors like all the time.

    He uses my QTips without asking.

    He doesnt get up to his own alarm, so I have to get him up to turn it off.

    He doesn't drink at all and hardly goes out any, so he thinks that gives him the right to **** with with people when they come back from going out.

    Him and some other punk spent like 3 hours trying to convince me how public school gave them such an advantage and private school sucks. :)rolleyes: )

    He leaves his crappy music on when he leaves the room.

    He leaves candy wrappers lying around for days.

    He gets his nasty ass toothpaste all over the sink. Our sink was literally white for about a month before he sacked up and cleaned it.

    He plays video games/watches TV when I'm sleeping.

    When talking to his friends on the phone, and this one kid on my hall, he says "One" to end conversation. *shudder*

    Had the ****ing nuts to try to start some **** between me and another drunk kid one night after coming back. Look buddy, just because you don't ****ing have the balls to drink and have a good time, don't try to start a fight for your own entertainment.

    He smells.

    I'm sure there is more I'm forgetting.

    Well to be fair, Freddie Mercury was... But yeah, Queen rules. You should kick his ass on this alone.

    Again, why haven't you kicked his ass allready? You'll get a new roommate if you do. :D

    OMG Nomar!!!!! If I was in the vicinity I'd beat the crap out of this guy for you.

    There are 2 or 3 things on the list that aren't a huge deal...but most of them alone would warrant a trashing.

    Complain away...I shan't try to stop you again.

    ... but he is right for giving you a hard time about drinking.

    Refman brings up an interesting proposal though:

    For a small fee(;) ), your buddies here at cc.net would love to pay a visit to your friend[crack knuckles]. Best part is, there would be no ties whatsoever to you. :)

    These are the really annoying things on your list. The watching TV when you are asleep thing is only annoying if:
    1) it is not at a low volume
    2) you are a light sleeper, AND
    3) you live in a dorm.

    Haha. Thanks man.

    Honestly... I'm a pretty patient, laid back, and bad at conflicts.

    I just deal with it by thinking that its only one year. And I don't really want to move so eh.

    I will start not standing for this **** though. I can't take much more.

    Ref - If youre ever in ATL, drop me an email. ;)

    So you don't agree with drinking. But would you try to start a fight between two drunk people just to see what happens for your own ****s and giggles?

    I think you have to get him buzzing at least if not drunk. Mix up some drinks, put some alcohol in it, and then when he's all excited...tell him what you did.

    I did that once...don't get into a game of one upsmanship with a guy who has access to all your stuff and the place you sleep. Trust me...it NEVER ends well.

    I think I might be the bad roommate. I can't tell though since it's my sophomore year and I'm already on my 4th roommate since starting college. There are circumstances though. My first roommate was a senior and he graduated early. My 2nd roommate was a flamer who was too cheap to put his girl friend up in a motel when she visited, so she slept in our room. Anyways, he only moved in because his dorm was being renovated, now he's back where he belongs. My 3rd roommate was pretty cool, but it was during a summer semester and he lives on the opposite side of campus that I do during the regular school year. My new roommate is a freshman from a small town where he was probably the ****. Anyways, he's having trouble adjusting to just being another person on this campus and not the big dog. I think I may have bugged my roommates because I'm sloppy. I leave papers and books strewn accross my desk and my shelves. Also, I'm a night owl and I stay up pretty late on the internet.

    Man, I miss my first roommate. He was from Trinidad and was half british half Indian. He looked like a regular white british guy, but he had a cool accent. Like a British accent with a Carribean twang. You just don't find people like that everyday at A&M, where you can't walk 2 feet without bumping into your average ambercrombie and fitch wearing, from the suburbs, pat green lovin', pre worn in hat with the purposely torn brim sporting, white guy. Unfortunately, THAT guy has been my last two roommates from last spring and this fall.

    I miss my boarding school days, when I had multiple roommates that I got to pick. My favorite year was 9th grade when I got to live with 2 of my best friends, my older brother, and my friend's older cousin who was new to our school. I miss the good ole days when we used to get into all kinds of mischief. Sneaking out at night, breaking into the library to use the internet, and watching p*rn on school VCRs.

    Yeah, private school is the best, tell your friend he's dumb if he thinks Public School has an advantage over private school besides being cheaper.
