I haven't read the article yet but had to share. I had two really awful roommates in my lifetime. None of this is exaggerated.

Horrible Roommate #1
- This girl was a food slob - she left chicken bones (she was always eating the cafeteria's nasty fried chicken) and pizza crusts all over the room.
- She also kept her clothes strewn all over her side of the room and just picked up stuff off the floor when she wanted to wear it.
- She turned the phone off at 9pm (it was in her name but we split the bill) and I remember I had to beg her on bid night (we had to wait in our rooms for either a phone call saying we didn't get a bid) to keep it on until midnight.
- She would call her parents every single day for at least an hour, sometimes more than once a day.
- Her parents came to visit (4 hours away) most weekends and spent the night ON THE FLOOR.
- She was very religious and openly questioned a lot of things I did - like have a steady boyfriend, pledging, going to parties, etc. She'd say things like "do you really think it's a good idea to go out two nights in a row?" or "how serious are you going to get with your boyfriend?". As if any of it was her business. I tried to sleep anywhere but my own dorm room as frequently as possible that semester.
- She never left the room, except for class, church, and EMT calls (she was on the campus EMT squad). I never had any time for myself in the room.


Horrible Roommate #2 was MEAN. I recently found an essay I had written about her for one of my writing classes.
- Even though she knew about my lung disease, she'd smoke (tobacco and pot) in the room with her friends.
- She would bring people in the room at 1am on weeknights when I was already asleep, and they'd come sit on my bed (as I was trying to sleep), eating my food, playing music and just plain obnoxious.
- She and our next-door neighbor would take stuff off my bed and either chuck them on the floor or throw them out the window. I had a couple of stuffed animals, one of those headrest/pillow things, and several sleep pillows (not decorative) and she'd come in my room when I wasn't there and just toss stuff. I'd come home from class to find stuff missing or damaged.
- She'd find which washer I was using to do my laundry and turn it off mid-cycle so the clothes would just sit in a tub or water, or she'd take my clothes out of the dryer mid-cycle and throw them on the nasty floor.
- While I was in the shower, she would take my towel or clothes from the bathroom.
- I moved out the following semester (to the room next door, which was going to be empty because next door neighbor moved in with her) and the two of them would bang stuff against our shared wall, or knock on my door incessantly, to try to upset me.

I was so happy when I started rooming with who would be my final roommate for the rest of my college career. We became best friends while pledging. She was just chill, fun to be around, and we had each others backs.

We definitely do, but no idea where or how long ago the thread died.

But I cracked up at "I apologize in 12 different positions."

ETA: Found it!
