sigh...why do i always have to be the one to put my foot down?

My floor is unusally active at night...everytime i go to bed, i hear people screaming in the hall, running up and down the hall, keeping me up. Ive been a good sport about it, but tonight I had to put my foot down. 10 of them standing out there like monkeys throwing sh!t at each other, i had to come out and yell at them after the repeated attempts by my RA has failed. Sigh. I hate being the bad guy to nice people (well, they are nice most of the time).

Oh well, I just thought I would vent.

Just tell them to shut up and suggest that they pick little bugs out of each other's hair and eat them.

Had you carried out your actions in my old dorm, you would be in a deep state of regret. Our floor was a bunch of jackasses.

That's why your friends work two part time jobs in addition to going to school so they can live OFF campus.

I refuse to "dorm" under any circumstances. I look at it this way; Friday and Saturday nights are fine for Tomfoolery and revelry. Sunday thru Thursday, be respectful and knock off the noise, explosives and other Jackass stunts by ten o'clock or so. Be courteous to those around you that are trying to study or maybe just SLEEP. <--what a concept.

Unfortunately, the above paragraph makes no sense to males under 28 years old, or women under 25 years old. Generally speaking.

yeah.. i got named as the ringleader of my floor's antics.. i would hate to be someone on my floor that wasn't on my side.

last night we made a powerful blower, laid torn up peices of paper next to peoples doors, and blew crap all over their room.

then we taped shut one of the bathroom doors from the inside.. took off a door lock to a lounge, turned on the space people song, and relocked it.

then put down some soy sauce packets and smashed em.. chalked up the walls, and had a food fight.

and this was all in one night...

hehe.. i wish it was only 500 bucks.. we're well into 4 digits.. a 160 dollar chair was most unfortunate.. as was the pudding filled pool in the bathroom.. and the eggs in the carpet... holes in the wall, pizza stuck to the ceiling with knives..

but i do need some major prank for the end of the year.. any ideas anyone?

Destruction of private property.
Destruction of resources placed there for YOUR benefit.
Denial of services. (bathroom)

Real mature. 10 years from now, you'll look back and say "that was pretty frickin' dumb."

I dont need 10 years to say that.

Come to think of it...i think our floor has only been fined once for throwing items into the trash can in the bathroom that made it overflow...but that only happened once. (Crap like milk cartens and stuff...it should be taken care by your own trash can)

the best end-of-the-year prank is taking an old couch out of the dumpster, lighting it on fire in the middle of the street, and then hoping the smoke will go up into the attic of the dorm, setting off the fire alarm and getting everyone out to watch it burn... some kids did this at my school a couple of years ago!
