Oops, got beat to the German post. Oh well.

So instead I'm going to talk about Bad Roommates, so we can form a list of what not to do for any future collegegoers out there. Or anyone who will have a roommate at all.

Here's my first addition to the list:
Don't drink all of your roommate's rum without asking him or inviting him, especially if you have other booze available!

Currently making Possession 2, a game where you play as a ghost and possess your enemies.

No, you beat me to it. Now I'm gonna need to think of another purpose for this topic.
Alright, fixed. No harm no foul. We can just pretend this never happened.

Never forget to mention the fact, if it applies to you, that you're a nudist.

...Also, don't forget that little detail, especially if you're fat.

Bring your noisy girlfriend in and get it on while your roommate is trying to study.

Why am I here? Why do I exist, and what is
my purpose in this universe?

Don't think that by being the first one to do a prank, involving whip cream (or shaving cream), will make sure it won't happen to you while you sleep...

Join in unannounced after your roommate brings in his noisy girlfriend and proceeds to get it on with her while you were trying to study. Especially while yelling, "Banzai!"

Quite simply, do not do any pranks on your roommate. Kind of a "don't crap where you eat" thing. Also don't steal from them, or steal their significant other.

Get your roommate's mom's number on your own. My roommate still hasn't forgiven me for that one.

Don't take a dump on his face while he's sleeping, especially if you've just polished off that tin of smoked almonds.

Don't do any of the lame-brained stuff I would do.

Sanity brings Clarity. Clarity brings Understanding. Understanding makes everything boring as hell.

Don't fill his bed with novelty condoms stuffed with oranges when he's bringing someone over later.

Find his phone, scroll to his girlfriends number and send her a text saying "Don't worry, she'll never find out. X"
