Post your dorm stories/experiences!

I'm about to be dorming next year, and was wondering what I can expect from it

Statistically, you can expect a bunch of threads to be posted on ATOT about how much X hates roommate Y. Don't become a statistic. Wreak terrible yet humorous revenge on roommate Y, take pics, THEN come post about it.

well, I dont live in a dorm...
But, last year some buddies and I at Oklahoma State decided to take one of those small kiddie pools and place it in the common room on their floor. We then proceded to fill it full of water via a hose from the bathroom. It was great fun until their RA showed up.

I always seem to get the roommate who can never hear his alarm go off in the morning. Granted I'm normally up before them, but it bugs me.

Special Jello recipe used for college dorms (one of your staple foods for the next 5 years):

10 oz Smirnoff 151 proof Vodka
2 packs of Jello mix
5 sugars (all the extra sugar/jello mix helps mask the Vodka flavor)

Put it in your freezer which should be cranked all the way to the coldest setting, as Vodka doesn't freeze anywhere near 32F and you'll need it much colder for the jello to congeal.

Just drink the vodka

I must admit I had a rather negative run in with vodka lately though.

You'll do well to stay away from Natty Ice and the Beast.

Lots of drunks, lots of stupid people, loud noises at most hours, and if you're lucky, endless gunfire. (I was on a floor with nothing but gamers my freshman year. We had our own floor CS server and it was gunfire at most hours of the day. It was great.) Not to mention, if you're unlucky, you'll get the roommate who never goes to class, never gets up when their alarm goes off, is a complete slob, and a complete jerk for one reason or another. Oh yeah...also expect god awful food in the cafeteria. It may be good for a little while...but it gets bland pretty quick.
