48 Jerks That Made Their Roommates Consider Working 5 Jobs Just To Live Alone (New Pics)
Your house, your rules. But if you're sharing it with another person, they too have a say in what's acceptable and what's not. Or at least they should be able to.
Some, however, are so focused on themselves that they forget shared living space comes with a set of compromises. From questionable hygiene habits to food theft, these people can be really infuriating.
To remind everyone that manners matter, we put together a list of the worst roommates we could find on the internet. So be nice with yours, because if you're not, karma might match you with some of these.

Roomate Eats Everything Then Puts It Back!?
I seriously can’t make this up. My roomate gets “the munchies” and forgets she can use cups instead of drinking out of the carton. Recently she started eating the butter and cheese and just puts it back. I only know this because I walked in on her eating butter TWICE between the hours of 12 am and 3 am. This is the 5th time I find this…

Roommate Complained The Dryer "Takes Twice As Long Now"
Reminds me of the time when I was asked to vacuum at work and the thing barely functioned. So I took the radical step of emptying it, which had obviously not been done in a VERY long time. Hey presto, it worked great now and everyone acted like I was so smart for figuring that one out.

I Showed Up To Help My (Supposed To Be) Roommate Move Into Our New Apartment
This is how their current space looked when I showed up with the dolly for the U-Haul. I was told everything was boxed and ready to go.
My husband did this when we were first moving in together. I was mad, but his sister was raging because we were moving out of the apartment I shared with her that day, and we had to pack everything for him.
My College Roommate Sets Our Thermostat To 80°f Every Single Night
As someone who likes it at 66°, I live in pure hell every single day. Yes I have told management (they don’t care). Yes I have tried to negotiate with her (she doesn’t care). Random roomate assignment. Unbreakable year lease. I get heat triggered migraines

Roommate Turned Stalker Because He Thought I Featured Him In My Books
Back in 2021 I roomed with a guy, for privacy purposes I'll name him Andrew, who turned into a stalker after he moved out because he thought I featured I him in the novels I wrote. Everything was fine when we roomed with each other in the dorms at UIC, and it all went down after we moved out. Back in 2018 I self published a romance novel about two roommates, long before I even met this person. I also published additional books about soccer, hockey, and band romances as well. Andrew knew about these books and I'm assuming he must have googled my name or something like that as he brought it up in a discussion that he liked what I wrote. Fast forward to the next school year, I got an email from the dean of students requesting a meeting. In that meeting, the dean discussed how Andrew believed I wrote about him in my novels. Literally, every detail he linked to himself, even saying the protagonist had a house with a brick facade which supposedly matched his parents house. Ultimately, the dean sided with me when I showed her the publication date. I thought that was the end of that at that time.
Later on, roughly a year later, I attended a soccer game at my alma mater high school, and I saw Andrew at the end of the game as I was leaving. Both Andrew and I are from the same hometown, but the intriguing part is he never went to either of the high schools playing. At the game, he made a scene, accusing me of following him there. I told him I never knew he was here, and left after. He did the same thing at a local bar and grill restaurant when I was with my girlfriend, he came in after us and accused me of following him there. I got the manager involved, who looked at the security footage and reassured him that we were there first. A month after that incident, his father showed up at my girlfriend's house while I was there (seen in the photo, faces censored for privacy) and refused to leave until I took down my novels. She had to call the cops and his excuse was that he was on public property (pointing to where the sidewalk line would be) and that he could be there. Eventually, I found out Andrew posed as people I knew on Snapchat to view my location, which stopped once I turned my feature off (why is this even a thing in the first place?).
If that wasn't bad enough, nearly a year later, I discovered Andrew went on a Minecraft server and forum and shared explicit passages of my novels along with pictures of himself and pictures of household items with his face on it (pillows, blankets, candles). I'm not sure how he got the pics on the Minecraft server, but the screenshots show him on there. For added context, I gave him my Minecraft account when we were roommates since he wanted to play the game and I lost interest in the game years prior. Long story short, my Minecraft account had my name tied to it and he used my identity to do his disgusting deeds on the server and forum. He also added my phone number to the forum account, and I got several texts regarding the matter, which is how I found about this incident. I emailed Mojang to get my former account deactivated to no luck.
So yeah, this is what happened with my hell of a roommate who thought I knew him before he moved in. Like, I get the concern that one my books is about two roommates, but when it was published long before I knew you, it's obviously not about you.
I totally did base a character in a novel I wrote on a real guy, because I wanted the character to be an amoral narcissistic bullying jerk and the real guy was the perfect model. And also I hate him and wanted to mock him in print. Assuming he ever reads it, the guy will either assume it's a joke or, more likely, is so arrogant he won't even pick up on it. (You can tell it's fiction because in the book the jerk pays the price instead of being rewarded for his rotten behaviour yet again). Either way I've had my revenge. Nyeh!

Not to mention his food when only the right one has the garbage disposal. And just the sheer amount of toothpaste this man goes through is just insane. Same with shampoo conditioner when the dude doesn't even have an inch of hair.

I suspect the prelude was something on the lines of "Too bad we ran out of dishwasher tabs, but luckily we still have dish soap" Readers: don't do that. The two are not interchangeable.

Are My Roommates Trying To Threaten Me?
So this started happening about a month or two ago — every time I stay overnight at my girlfriends house, the next morning I come back and all the cabinets in the kitchen are open and all the knives are out on display.
Am I worried over nothing? Should I say something? This is a college house and the other six people living here have all known each other for years.

SO glad I've never had to put up with having roommates. I also feel a lot less of a slob right now. I might be lazy about cleaning and tidying, but at least I don't leave rotting meat in the d**n wardrobe, good lord.
