I was so moved by this blog that I decided to gather my memoirs about my own landlord/roommate experiences and compile them.

I lived with Chris, the soft-spoken actor, for several years. He was generally pretty great and had a penchant for building recumbent bicycles out of broken hockey sticks on our living room floor. He had a revolving door of ( Read more... )

My room mate stories seem pretty tamed compared to this. I dealt with a room mate who tried to kill me while I was taking a shower with a jagged shower caddy made of wire and ill intent. Another one refused to wear pants, even on her period.

Terrifying! Beats any roommate horror story I've ever heard or been subject to. This includes the girl that would grunt loudly at odd intervals, who literally sounded like a moose in heat, and would loudly hork up spit for twenty minutes every morning.

this moose/grunt girl...did she leave a large reservoir of cigarette butts in an oildrum in her bedroom? if so, it sounds a helluva lot like "grace" this girl who lived in my dorm at York.

university is just like summer camp with scabies.

No, no cigarette butts. But, maybe this is a bad roommate archetype they are living up to that we are just unaware of. It's a shared conspiracy amongst people who can't overcome how grating they are.

like in Calvin and Hobbes...its all building character.
