What to do if you can't get along with your roommate

by Cody Gambrel

Created on: September 04, 2009

You come back from a three hour night class. Your exhausted ready crash in your bed and drift into a deep sleep. You steep into your room only to find that it smells like rotting eggs. Your roommates stuff is scattered all over the room. On your side of the room! Even worse he went into your fridge and drunk all you your milk. Your freaking milk! Leaving you with four or five drops to eat with your bowl of fruity pebbles you eat every night. How can you freaking eat cereal with five drops of milk. Not to worry if you have to put up with this kind of crap I'm here to help you out.

The first method is the most logical and successful. Simply just let your fist make powerful contact with his face. This method goes all the way back to when your parents spanked you when you did bad things. You learned didn't you? I'm sure that after your dad gave you four or five licks with his belt because you told everyone at your mother's dinner party that she wears a wig, that you never even mentioned the word wig again. The same concept applies here. If he gets hurt he will think twice about drinking your freaking milk again. Which this method does have its flaws. If your only benching 80 pounds and your roommate is putting up 450 pounds and is a third degree black belt than you may have made a mistake. Just go for the throat.

The second method is also highly effective. You will not ever get into another argument with your roommate again. Your roommate will be so pleased with you that he might even invite you to some of the hot parties he goes to. Just simply do nothing. Just let him walk all over you and don't oppose anything he does. Yes this is the coward's way out, but it could save you a trip to the hospital. Not to mention and outrageous medical bill. But you must be prepared, that bowl of fruity pebbles you like to eat so much after a long day before you lay your precious little head down to go to sleep, you will never eat those all so satisfying tiny little colorful pebbles again.

Which ever method you chose I hope it serves you well. I hope you find peace with your roommate so you can quit worrying about coming back to you room to this crap and focus more on your studies. Because we all know a good education leads to a successful career and a comfortable lifestyle. So good luck with your situation I wish you the best luck.
