Simple just pour everything you hate about your college rooommate.

I, for instance, have slept only three hours on thursday night. We share a small apartment where soundproofing is minimal. So Mr A Brings in two of his friends, one of them his cousin. They stay in the living room until 12h45 am with music at his usual level... no problem there...

But...

They come back 3 hours later, restarting the music. But then the cousin wakes me up... he brought some lady in and both are having very loud sex in the bathroom, which makes it even louder with all the tiles. I wasn't able to get back to sleep that night after that, or i'd have missed class on friday morning (and i'm glad i didn't miss this one!) On my way to my hometown after that class, i nearly fell asleep 3-4 times at the wheel.

Having sex in the apartment, ok, but 2 total strangers doing it there... i've got a problem with that...

why not take come pics and threaten him to stop or you'd post the pics on ATOT?

or threaten him and then post the pics anyway?

but yes only thing i hated about the dorms is the lack of sleep. they'd tell you that they can't sleep earlier than 4am and then get up around 1pm. yeah good luck pal with your 9-5 job after you graduate, if you ever will!

My roomate won't shut up. He just keeps talking and talking and talking. Like he knows everything about everything. It's really starting to piss me off. He needs to stop. I've started to ignore him. I just don't see how anyone could stand him. Ahhhhh.

He has also worn the same clothes for the last 5 days without washing and the same PJ's since we got here and as far as i know he hasnt washed those either. Its really sickening. He is the most disorganized person.

My other roomate isnt bad though. I guess i cant have everything be perfect. His only problem is the pot smoking/dealing.

my roommate keeps crapping in a box instead of the toilet, running around the house for no reason, and knocking things off my desk to piss me off.

<----- lives with cat.

hm. where to start... let's start in chronological order :)

roommate #1: Brad. freshman year, fall semester
- had to listen to music while going to sleep. loud music. and he only owned 2 CD's -- Will Smith and Kid Rock.
- he was perpetually warm. in November, in the mountains, he'd open up all the windows in the room and turn on a box fan to blow cold air in
- told the entire floor that I never showered (completely untrue... I showered every morning, and frequently, I'd catch a second shower before dinner)

roommate #2: Ben. freshman year, spring semester
- very dirty. rarely did laundry, and though he showered every day, I don't think he took soap with him
- used to play with a butterfly knife in the room. almost hit me with it once by accident when it slipped out of his hands

roommate #4: Rob. junior year, first half of fall semester
- had sex with his g/f in the room. didn't bothered waiting until I was asleep, and never even considered asking me to leave ahead of time (I'd have been more than willing to crash in a friends room)
- invited his g/f to live with us without asking me ahead of time
- threw me up against a bookcase and tried to choke me

roommate #5: Mat. moved in after Rob dropped out due to being batshit crazy.
- claimed to be a druid. he walked around campus with a walking staff, and even slept with it in bed
- he was fat and hairy... which in and of itself is alright, but he'd play drums in the room with his shirt off and I'd have to look at his back hair
- somehow, he managed to take a shower and return to the room smelling worse than he did when he left
- managed to create a 6' long, 3' high pile of garbage (actual trash + dirty clothes) on his side of the room
- used my computer to view gay child pornography

What's so bad about that?

Did he claim to be able to talk to animals? What purpose did the staff serve?

yes

I don't know what purpose the staff served. I just know that he walked around campus with it, and he slept with it in his head. he was known as "stick boy" (all the obviously freaky people in my college had nicknames... there was "trenchcoat guy," "laptop guy," "guy-with-a-huge-belly-that-stuck-out-of-every-shirt-he-wore guy," etc).

Buy earplugs, the dense bell-shaped foam variety. I sleep with them every night and find them unobtrusive.

Lol, without fail they pair you with the worst possible match. IIRC my college even did some sorta thing where they gave some kinda questionaire &amp; based roomates on that... I never seriously considered murder as an option to deal with people until that fateful semester :|

Turn your alarm radio up really loud.

My roommate's a nice, reasonable guy. Sleeps are reasonable hours, wakes at reasonable hours, makes an effort not to bother me if I'm busy or sleeping, etc. Plus, we are forced to sign a contract so if I ever room with the people like loki8481 has then I could easily resolve the situation (of course, assuming I continue to live in the dorms). All of my other suitemates are pretty cool as well. Some are WoW &amp; Doom 3 addicts, incidentally.

OK I've definitely got you all beat. My roommate last year (in the dorms):

A 20 year old pro-israeli jew
Spent the prior year studying with a group in israel, otherwise known as brainwashing him to think israel > *. Literally he answered everything with "well in israel..."
Had seasonal factor disorder which meant he needed to stare at the brightest light EVER for an hour a day. I swear our room was like a lighthouse beacon from the outside.
Hypochondriac. We each had a shelving unit on the wall, his bottom one was filled with 40 or so bottles of crap for EVERYTHING
Antisocial. He hated people being in the room, didn't drink, didn't ever go out with friends. He sat and played computer games all day every day.
I swear he watched the same clips of super troopers, star wars, star trek first contact, gettysburg and maybe a couple others EVERY DAY. I swear to god after a year I can quote them line for line.
Oh and he had the strangest sense of humor ever. I mean, he found sh!t funny that no one else did, and then just laughed hysterically at it for 5 minutes.
There are so many more....god I'm glad that year is over.

But I got him back. The day after finals I went to a huge party and came back so sickeningly drunk. Sometime in the night I got up, walked into his closet, and puked in his clothes hamper :D. It sounded like a good idea at the time, and after the monster hangover it sounds hilarious.

but we have good roommate stories to tell :)

like the one time roommate #5 came back with a bunch of his frat brothers at 1 am. they all started snorting ritalin, and afterwards, decided to penny-lock our RA inside his dorm.

Freshman year roommate: Pot smoker. One time woke up at 4am to start playing the guitar and smoking pot. No idea what the hell was wrong with him so I transferred out as soon as I could.

Sophomore year roommate: A stupid freshman who brought friends over to drink when I left for a weekend. Worst part is that he's too stupid to realize that since the RA does a periodic checkup on the dorms, he should put SOME effort on hiding the evidence.
