I had a college roommate that used to collect fingernail clippings in mason jars (plural)
:wat:
One of my biggest regrets in life is when i was about 14 me and a friend almost managed to steal a whole-ass parking meter, but not just any parking meter but one painted BLUE with a handicapped parking symbol on it. I noticed that the concrete the pole was sunk into was all fucked up and i could wiggle it pr good, so we waited until night and grabbed that shit. I only lived about a block and a half away, and we got most of the distance there but a cop came rolling across the street right as we were about to cross.
Fucker made eye contact with us, I'm pretty sure he mouthed the words "what the fuck?" when he looked at what we were carrying and right as we dropped our haul and booked it down the alley i heard the siren come on. He never caught us, we were good at running from cops lol
I didn't even want the money out of it, i just thought it would look cool in my room! I mean, i totally would've tried to get the money out, but it wasn't like a primary concern
Pipe cutters might work for the pole-style ones depending on what the pole's made of.
Please tell me that those were separate projects with different materials.
Here is a true, gross story: one time my roommate had a bunch of people over while I was sick in bed and, not wanting to get anyone else sick, I pissed in an old beer can instead of leaving my little QT zone. After battling a fever all night, I forgot about the can while hurriedly packing for a month-long work trip.
Well, about three weeks in, I'm on the phone with my roommate and I hear him do a spit take. "Dude, how long has this beer been sitting here on your dresser?" Now at that time, I was not the sort of person who would leave a beer unfinished, and the realization slowly dawned on me: this guy just drank my urine.
"Well, I left three weeks ago so you do the math."
I still feel terrible about it, but I figured he was better off not knowing. Plus, like... dude drank an open beer that had been sitting on my dresser for a month. I don't know what exactly he was expecting it to taste like.

I've seen people watch cable news on a regular basis :jesus-christ:
I had a creationist-fundamentalist roommate for roughly a year. Earth was 6000 years old to him, dinosaurs were put there by :vegan-seitan: , the works. He was also a disciple of Supply Side Jesus so he'd have cherry-picked Bible verses on a whiteboard in his room, facing the door so I could see them when the door was open. "If a man does not work he shall not eat" and so on.
He was simultaneously misogynistic and deeply obsessed with lesbians. I could write an entire thread about that but I'd rather not.
He would also take very long showers. I'm talking over an hour. Because the apartment was attached to other units in the same building, I started getting complaints about no hot water for anyone during those times. When I confronted him about those very long mastur-I mean, shower sessions, he countered that he worked so hard that he deserved to shower as long as he pleased and no one could stop him.
Not the filthiest story presented here, but still weird to me.

lmao standard christian then
i dated a guy (not for long!) that came on his blanket every day and just.... slept in it. like the blanket he uses on his bed. he barely washed it
i have more stories. men are whack
edit:
knew a guy that compulsively and proudly displayed a ton of dildoes at his apartment, some of which were clearly used
knew a guy that compulsively stole stuff and somehow stole some of my underwear when he visited my place. he assured me that it wasnt sexual and that he had a problem
dated a guy on first date that came out to me that he had a gambling compulsion and was like 500k in debt to a casino or something
i honestly dont know what it is about me that makes guys wanna pour their souls out to me n shit
his mom washing it was the point if he was doing that to the blanket what the fuck
Still appears like a psychosexual compulsion, but perhaps you are right it was only infantile development of self brought on by abnormal class conditions
i honestly dont know what it is about me that makes guys wanna pour their souls out to me n shit
I'm assuming these were like tinder dates? honestly a lot of men are just waiting for the opportunity to do that. They want a women to pay attention to them long enough to listen to their problems. Since a lot of men don't actually know any women and ToxMasc means no confiding in men that just means they tell the first women they can. It's probably less you and more the guys.
now it's absolute vanity to think that a random women wants to hear or cares about your terrible problems but our society is vain so it happens often.
I’m assuming these were like tinder dates?
not all of them but some of them 🙃 the rest were just random dudes i knew
though i do appreciate them dropping all the red flags up front, thanks bud
There should really be a “guy encyclopaedia”; seems we’re discovering new ones daily.
somehow stole some of my underwear when he visited my place. he assured me that it wasnt sexual
:sus-deep:
i didnt even ask for it back he just came up to me and mentioned it and i was like :bruh: you can keep it
I suspect, emphasis on sus, that he wanted to see your reaction by telling you that. :kombucha-disgust:
:yea:
This has the energy of sex pests that “innocently” horny post in non horny spaces
he assured me that it wasnt sexual and that he had a problem
:doubt:
An old relative of mine has to close his kitchen door at night; the first time I asked he said he has a friend who comes in to feed his (indoor) cats and let them out of their room in the mornings while he's still asleep and he doesn't want the cats getting into the kitchen, except.....the friend has to go through the kitchen and open the kitchen door to get to the cat's room anyway. When he gave his cats to other relatives to keep, I asked why he was still closing the kitchen door at night and he said so if there's smoke it doesn't filter into the rest of the house but....who's cooking at night? There's no smoke to worry about, there's no worries about fire or a gas leak whatsoever.
They started this habit and now they're compulsively doing it for literally no reason.
I had a roommate who stapled underwear to the hallway and living room walls and called it “art.”
One of my partners did that. I pointed out it was on an episode of Real Monsters. No longer a partner but tbh they probably still do that.
I also realise I'm going to be this for some people.
I had a mentally ill roommate who never clipped his nails/basically never showered and often talked to himself. He tried to steal another roommates’ bong (which was not very incognito ofc). I never did anything/didn’t know what to do with a prestigious college drop out’s slows descent into madness so I just was generally friendly
Somehow he later ended up in New York and tried killing a random woman by pushing her onto the subway tracks (she was not harmed thankfully)
And now I don’t know how to feel about what I could have done :what-the-hell:
And now I don’t know how to feel about what I could have done
Unless you worked in mental healthcare, literally nothing
When your former roommate is featured in a racist, anti-immigrant Ann Coulter tweet :kombucha-disgust:
(of course, for the record , I’m nearly certain he was a good ol American citizen - since birth)
The entire DNC shitting its pants and lighting itself on fire to prevent me from winning
I kicked Joe Biden’s ass so fuckin hard they had to summon The Other Biden
At a certain point my brother just stopped flushing the toilet.
It was annoying with piss but insane when he'd leave his shit there. He'd cover it with like a quarter of a roll of toilet paper so if you went in after him and flushed it, the toilet would immediately be clogged and it was awful if you had to go really bad.
He did this for actual years starting sometime in his early 20s and only recently started flushing his shit at 28 (still not his piss though)
Hed just act like he wasn't doing anything. Like he'd even complain about the pipes being backed up all the time when he was clearly the cause of that
You know, I'm actually OK with the fingernail thing. I hope that person uses them for a really weird art project or something.
