What would you do if you had a really messy roommate? Would you clean after him, try to reason with him or find more creative ways of getting your point through?
Comedian Justin Cousson chose to fight this war the most creative and hilarious way ever. He created a passive-aggressive gallery where he turns his housemate’s messes into a series of unique art pieces.
So far, it doesn't look like this kind of shaming is working that well, but at least it's making the Internet laugh.

There are few things as gross as used cutlery, which is much overdue for being cleaned.
Never mind that comment, I meant the guy who left it there not the person taking the awesome picture lol

I would never let that happen. I rely on dairy products WAY too much.
Ewww wrinkly milk - I don't drink the stuff apart from a squirt in coffee. Nasty surprise pouring it out, only to find it has gone off!
That's the reason I've started always smelling it before I pour
Load More Replies...One time me and my family decided to be dumbasses and buy milk from 7-11 and it had little flakes of dried milk in it. But this is bad
this is me. I have a near phobia, dry heaves, panic attack etc. I will leaverify in the fridge for eternity unless someone else handles it. this is why I buy the smallest portion of milk possible.

This actually works. They can break down and decompose on the couch.
Why man!!?!! Why!!!? I'm only 13 and me!!!! Me!! Would think right away to put those away!! Including everything else!!
Most Americans live nasty. Get rid of the guy. OR I would just start dumping trash in his bed til he leaves. Nothing worse than coffee grounds in your bed. This, I can tell you works great.
He's saving them for the cats he's adopting. The apartment needs more hair and pee.

There's no way to avoid jerks like this. I've had them, so I figured I'd learned my lesson so one time I wrote up list of house rules we both were to sign before she moved in to my place. I naively thought it would put us on the same page so there could be no arguments since we both agreed on the same rules in writing. Nope. Less than a week in she started going "What's the big deal?". Then I pointed to the list of rules she signed and she rolled her eyes. Many people seriously lack empathy. The day I was moving out she put all of my stuff into the hallway of hte building and started painting the bathroom, then claimed she was trying to help me. I absolutely lost it.
Sounds like a piece of s**t person. And the "art" pieces are funny :D I just avoid these kind of people as much as it`s possible. And I do agree that it`s not THE worst but it is still disgusting.
Load More Replies...This is the most active passive-aggressive reaction I've ever seen.
thought the same great hand writing but the room mate get rid of him they dont change wht did my mother teach me
When my son was living home, his biggest sin was to leave endless glasses in his room. He never brought them down unless I took a hissy fit to tell him off. One of my few "good parenting" efforts, came about when I once found a live maggot in a glass. I promptly returned the glass and it's inhabitant to the lad's room complete with a note saying This maggot belongs to Chris! I was trying to shame him, but it didn't work. Proud to report he is a changed man now !
