Pet Peeves

Recommended Posts

I'm at the breaking point. I live with 2 roommates and the little things are really starting to get to me.

1. Ice cube trays keep getting put back into the freezer with either no ice or 1-3 cubes.

2. The dryer filter is always full of lint

3. Tables have become way too cluttered

4. My groceries are being consumed by ghosts

5. The shows I record on digital cable are getting erased to make room for CSI Miami

6. Someone is taking sh#%s right before I have to brush my teeth

7. The shower curtain is constantly being taken down and I have no idea why

8. My favorites got erased on the computer

9. There's a huge stain on the carpet downstairs and nobody knows what happened

10. I left a 20 dollar bill out (ok, partially my fault) but nobody knows where it is

11. The gas can for filling the lawn mower has become empty

12. There was a piece of some foreign foodlike substance floating in my aquarium

13. There's a large oil spot in the center of the driveway, and I'm about 99.9% sure it was my roomates friend's car that put it there

14. The sink in the utility room smells of urine

15. The thermostat keeps getting moved up and down

16. The kitchen sink was full of what I could only describe as pottery clay

17. Did I mention my groceries keep disapearing?

18. I found the computer left on to an adult porn site

19. My laundry has been placed on the floor after it was washed and before it made it to the dryer. Why not put it in the dryer? OK, I left it in the washing machine. Tell me and I'll put it in the dryer.

20. I need to get rid of somebody or move out myself

All this has happened in the last 2-3 months.

Sounds like you need to set some ground rules. Or move out of the UFC reality show house.

18. I found the computer left on to an adult porn site

Better an adult porn site than the alternative... :freak3:

^^ Did I just say that?

Oh man. They probably jerk off in your shower as well :lol:

You're past 25 right? GTFO!:smashfrea

Sorry for the delayed response, I've been windsurfing and haven't had time to get on here.

Actually, yes, I am over 35 too, but seeing how after the divorce and custody battle with this given economy, getting layed off and having to go back to school since changing careers seemed the smartest thing to do I have taken room mates into my house. I've lived here since before I was married and had a child so I will NOT be the one moving out. Number 20 was a "statement made in frustation". I've since told one of them to start looking for another place. Not sure about the shower but did catch him with a girl in my room. He said he needed the bed. :mad:

Does everybody persecute you PD? Somehow I bet the roommates have their side of the story.

I've heard their side, it goes a little like this... "I pay to live here so I can do what I want". At least they aren't as anal and arogant as you and some others on here. Last thing I need would be for them to say how outdated my house is. At least they don't go looking for me to start arguments. Has Tex showed you the ignore function? :eek:

Well, no matter what if it's your house you get to say what is going on. I own, I make the rules with the roomies and that is established when they move in. Enough said.

I think the problem has been solved. It's been just over 48 hours since he left and not only I, but my other room mate also commented that the level of stress and general atmosphere in the house is much more "zen". I think we are going to leave it this way. I can't afford not to have a room mate, and the one that's left has been pretty good over a long period of time.

Good! and I hope that should you need one, you're able to find a much better replacement.
