Weird Roommates

Re: Weird Roommates

My room doesn't face east and I'm on the second floor. It's still visible from outside but the angle is steep enough to not really be able to see anything other than my desk which is right next to the window. I prefer to look out and nobody rarely ever looks in unless the door to the building is locked and they need help opening it. This is what it looks like:



I don't open it all the way, maybe 8-10 inches. The thing that I don't like is that there's no light in the room. He usually has all the lights off and then will close the window, no matter what time of day it is.

I don't beat my meat or anything

There are 2 kinds of guys in this world: guys who masturbate and liars.

In that case, he's just a weirdo.

I personally cannot sleep with light beaming in, and hate anybody looking at my ****. But I always have lights on after 5ish.

Re: Weird Roommates

Today was the first time I've spoken to one of my roommates in a couple weeks.

He said "hey".

Re: Weird Roommates

I'm really close with all my roommates. We get dinner together every day (schedules permitting) and go to parties and weekends together and stuff.

I'm in a 2 bedroom, 4-person apartment... we've only got 3 people this semester though because one of my roommates is studying abroad in Italy for the semester.

I am, however, getting a little irritated by the kid I share a room with...


I knew him from high school... not really well... I mean, we were friends but not real good friends... never really hung out aside from football stuff.

He's got really strange habits that are starting to nag me and isn't very considerate of others.

He ALWAYS leaves garbage laying around the kitchen. For some reason, no garbage he touches ever hits the garbage can, and I end up picking it up and putting it in the trash. I'm just going to start leaving notes next to his garbage saying "hey, put this in the trash." Also, he never changes the trash bag in the can. He'll pile on garbage until it's overflowing and laying on the ground (both my roommates now do), and I'm the one that ends up changing the bag EVERY TIME. And his gum inside the wrappers ends up everywhere. He choose like 3 packs of gum per day (and pops it and blows bubbles CONSTANTLY) and it rarely finds the garbage can.

He likes to hyjack my music too. And what I mean by this is I'll be listening to music at my computer, and he'll come in to the room, sit at his computer and jack up his music to overpower mine. It's no big deal because I've got really good headphones I can switch to, it's just annoying.

He also craps with the door open. I wouldn't mind him crapping with the door open if it didn't stink terribly. I keep telling him "dude, you gotta shut the door... you're stinking up the apartment" and he just grunts something and continues to crap. I've actually sprayed him with air freshener while he was on the crapper in hopes that he would get the idea.

Which brings me to another point: he doesn't pick up on clues very well. One day I came into the apartment and went to my room. He wasn't there, but his music was BLARING loud. So I got on his computer and shut it off. Again, nothing big, just annoying and inconsiderate. So when he came in, I was like "hey, i had to get on your computer to shut off your music." "He just replies "it's ok," as if I had done something bad. Similiar thing happened the other day when we were waiting in line for a comedy show, and he was blowing bubbles with his gum right next to my head. I leaned to the side a little on accident and almost hit his bubble. "I almost leaned into you bubble," I said. "That's ok," he said... same deal, as if it was my problem.

Oh, and he's got this strange habit of watching videos of guys lifting weights. He's strait, there's no doubt about it, but he's real into weight-training and health and stuff. Every once in a while I hear from his computer what could easily be mistaken for as gay porn (if you've heard the Adam Sandler skit, you know what I'm talking about). I just don't know how many times you can watch Arnold or Ronnie Coleman or Jay Cutler do the same lifts over and over. Of course, I'm sure he sits there and says, "I dont understand how Geno can look at those same Sports Blogs all day"... to each his own on that one I guess.

He doesn't use utensils when eating, either. And dips EVERYTHING in ketchup. So, being that he gets all the protein he possibly can, he takes a grilled chicken breast and, rather than cutting with with a fork and knife like a normal person, he just rips it with his hands and GLOBS it in ketchup. Same with hard-boiled eggs. Even cheese cubes... he dips everything in ketchup. When we went to Red Lobster to celebrate a friend's dinner, he got one of the most expensive fish dinners on the menu, then requested ketchup from the waiter... I would feel offended if I put hard work into cooking something and the person eating it just covered it in Ketchup like that... I feel bad for his mom.

Well, that's my weird roommate stuff. I've lived with him for over a year and a half now, and I'm really looking forward to the prospect of having my own bedroom next year.

Re: Weird Roommates

So has anyone roomed with 2 other people? I'm looking at where I might be dorming next year, and there's a good chance I'm tripling up.
