If you never lived in a flat-share, were you even a student for realz? The question doesn’t really have an answer, but it shows one thing. Living with another person under one roof is a one-of-a-kind experience.
And it’s not only about leaving dirty socks in plain sight, bringing in a bunch of friends at 2 am, or borrowing chocolate biscuits with 0.001% intention to return them. Whichever side you were, or currently are, standing on, you probably feel right and the other person is most likely wrong.
But in the land of flat- and house-sharing, there are no right or wrong people, there’s only a nasty-meter that goes up every single time you put an empty pack of ice cream back to rest in the freezer. Call it an exaggeration, but god is in the details when it comes to flat-sharing.
Pssst! More 'I live with a monster' pics can be found in a previous compilation by Bored Panda right here.

Thesis Due In A Few Days And I Don’t Need This Extra Stress Of People Stealing My Stuff From The Communal Fridge
Or if you absolutely can't, use your words instead of stealing.
Load More Replies...Good or bad, those energy drinks weren't the flatmate's to throw out. I sense that the author "will be much healthier and happier" if that flatmate was tossed out instead.
I would just throw out the roommates stuff in return. What an asshole!
Load More Replies...They had absolutely no right to throw them out. It is none of their bloody business. And this is coming from someone who despises energy drinks.
You know what's not good for me? Meddling flatmates. You know what's not good for them? ME!!!
"My life. My choices to make. Pay me back for the drinks you confiscated from me. Oh! And, mind your own damn business!!!"
Threw them out? Uh.... that's called theft and self righteous motives do not change that.
The Way My Dad Puts Things Away In The Fridge. This Is A Piece Of Steak
Maybe he enjoys dried out steak that has absorbed all the weird fridge smells.
Living with someone is never easy. Whether you’re partners, friends, or random students who met by pure chance and equal need to share a flat, the truth is, a big part of the deal comes down to not-so-sweet moments. Like, noticing your biscuit bag rapidly shrinking in size, or drinking the chamomile tea and shoving in the ear plugs since your roommate is a night owl with a passion for techno.
Sometimes, though, it gets more awful than that. And when you realize your relationship has become somewhat passive-aggressive and your sticky note battle is getting out of hand, it may be too late to save your (and your roommate's, for that matter) sanity.
My Husband Bought Memory Foam For “His Side Of The Bed”
No, strictly speaking he’s a psychopath. Sociopaths care how they are perceived and this guy obviously gives no fricks whatsoever.
Load More Replies...im more mad he took up more than half the dang bed lol tell him take his precious memeory foam to the couch
Is it me or this bed is extra narrow? What is it, 120-140 cm for two people?
My Dad Who Takes Bites Out Of Butter. Disgusting
Its horrible for you lol. Do you wonder why my cholesterol is so high? I LOVE BUTTER.
Load More Replies...ok sorry but i LOVE butter. although i dont take bites out of it.. i cut tiny slivers, and thats only once every like 6 months
Once every 6 months? You monster! You need more butter than that.
Load More Replies...Fortunately, there are some things everyone can do to make sure sharing a flat is not a one-way ride to hell. First, make sure you’re compatible from the very beginning. I know, nobody is going to marry their roommate, but being sure you have similar lifestyles, hobbies, and at least, are not immediately averse to one another is a good start.
However, many people who have experienced a flat share can assure you that living with your best friend is not a good idea either. Even though it sounds like a dream come true, living with your BFF may reveal less savory aspects of people’s personalities (And personal hygiene.) After all, it’s not worth putting your friendship on trial just so you two can spend even more time under one roof.
The truth is, when you start living with someone you know, little things that you were not particularly keen on about their personalities often snowball into giant arguments.
My Wife Putting This Peanut Butter In The Trash Because It’s Empty
That is rather wasteful. What an inconvenience for her to get a knife to fish it out.
Also, this does not belong in trash, but to the recycleables.
Load More Replies...Tell me you didn't grow up poor, without telling me you didn't grow up poor.
I was going to say "Tell me you're rich, without telling me you're rich".
Load More Replies...I just place the bottle in warm/hot water to melt it, it all goes to the bottom and I don't waste as much
Or a few seconds in the microwave I do that even when it's full makes it easier to spread
Load More Replies...Not just the pb, people need to be recycling the plastic containers as well...
My Husband Is Technologically Challenged
I prefer to open it the same way: Through the lid it's often difficult to get the last gulp out ^^'
Load More Replies...And? It pours more smoothly and there's less chance to spill. Frankly, every time I see these cartons with the plastic cap I am reminded of the Friend's episode about the invention for people who can't open milk.
Yes! And it'sannoying to get the last drops out through the plastic hole. Always some remains and then spills when folding the carton.
Load More Replies...I've done this. I stems from being a certain age when that's how things were opened. It's ingrained
You can re-learn, though. I managed just fine and my parents (over 70 by now) were able, too
Load More Replies...its a fabric mistake, the way your husband do, he get the last drop out, I do it also that way

Load More Replies...I Married A Monster
When my nephew was little he used to lick the chocolate off the chocolate iced donuts and put them back in the box. They looked like regular glazed donuts after his "treatment". Learned never to eat donuts at that house.
That’s so selfish! If I want two donuts but only the amount of one I cut it in half and I eat half of one and half of the other my bf likes this and does the same thing but that is just horrible! 😣🍩
If they are his/her donuts, this might be their way of letting everyone know they're not sharing.
"Its Always So Cold In Our House. Our Furnace Sucks." -Wife Jan2020 -32C
I see why you're leaving. "A marriage is like a hurricane, it starts with a lot of sucking and blowing, but in the end you lose your house."
Load More Replies...There's almost always a way to arrange your furniture so the vents aren't blocked. Not always, but usually. This is weird.
I understand the gloves, so they'll dry out. The res of itshould be a team effort-- is she the only one who Siffers? Just clear the vent and stop complaining.
Teucer T, just because he posted this doesn't mean that it's his fault lol. When you said "males gloves" , do you realise that people are different sizes.
Even though there are no existing rules governing how roommates should live with one another, psychologist Fredric Neuman suggests a couple of things to have in mind. First, it’s mutual respect. “By respect, I mean certain specific things: Do not eat the other person’s food unless you ask first. Do not borrow clothes, or pick up money lying around, or take up any other possession of the other person without asking first.”
The Way My GF "Puts Away The Groceries" Still In The Bag
How do you know that she was the one to get them?
Load More Replies...Does everyone put these items in the fridge?I don't put popcorn chips oreos in the fridge. Ooohhhh. Pfff its a pantry
Messy indeed. But it makes snack searching SO much more suspenseful and exciting!
Wife Doesn’t Pay Attention To What We Already Have When Buying Groceries
It looks like she made one, and has always been using the same one ever since.
Load More Replies...I'm less bothered by her stocking the house and much more bothered by whoever opens a new item without finishing the old one.
Legit was going to comment this. You may buy multiple of one item, we all do sometimes and it's okay to have an extra on the side. But it doesn't mean that you "have" to use it without finishing up the other one!
Load More Replies...look, we all sometimes do this, but if you have 4 boxes of crackers or tubes of toothpaste you either need to make a list or see a Dr about some possible memory issues.
I try so hard not to do this. If I'm making a meal and need groceries. I check first before running to the store. It does happen but not like this.
Load More Replies...maybe she likes a tooth paste cinnimon soy sauce sandwich on saltines for a late night snack ?
I'm pretty sure she has a condition not to remember things after two items are left ... Why would she think "I need cinnamon!" if she doesn't remember finishing one box and having bought one for nothing the last time?!
The Penzey's cinnamons are different types. There's Chinese, Ceylon, and Saigon, all with different flavor profiles.
This is me grocery shopping. But we open a new one when the first is empty.
This is my dad! On the upside, when everyone was panic hoarding this time last year, we were already fully stocked.
My Brother Has A Habit
This is not forgetfull this to me feels more like taking others for granted. I've had a brother like this, never taking responsibility and constantly expecting others to clear up his mess
Load More Replies...Yeah, this used to be my partner... when we just started dating, I was baffled to hear that his family members regularly didn't bring their keys when they went out, so someone always had to be home to let the others in. Like I heard him say more than once that he has to go home, otherwise his mother or brother would be stuck outside, or that he has to go now, because his mom is leaving soon, and if she leaves, he won't be able to go home. Only when I told him that's weird (and demonstrated by carrying my keys and fkin letting myself into my own home whenever I wanted) did he start to carry his own everywhere. Now, even he's baffled as to how he could live like that once...
My hubby does this and it infuriates me. I can't leave the door unlocked coz it automatically locks by itself as soon as you close the door. He does have a key but always leaves it in the bloody car as it is on a separate key chain as his car keys. Why, I don't bloody know.
Key safe - fix to the house, code to get in. Sorted. We got locked out once, never again.
Load More Replies..."No, I'm in the bathroom and unavailable. Figure it out on your own."
I say use your f*****g damn key Your at home blah blah not going anywhere Yeah BUT if I f*****g ain't.... Few times was out and stayed out later on purpose just to leave my brother who does this outside
Don't. Either he'll remember his keys, or learn patience while waiting for you.
I Married The Person Who Does This
Yes it is. Plus a hefty compensation for pain and suffering.
Load More Replies...We can't go over it, and we can't go under it, so we have to go THROUGH IT! -The kids from We Are Going On A Bear Hunt.
Load More Replies...Don't get me wrong, but I believe that simple things like that can show whether someone cares about others or not. That logic -leave it there and someone else will take care- for me is a sign of not caring enough.
I used to do this when we had an awkward to use holder - had to slot both ends into it somehow. My hands hurt and my partner was happy to do it for me. Might have looked uncaring to others though.
Load More Replies...That doesn't bother me at all, as long as I have toilet paper it can be stacked anyway you want.
That is quite a challenge, ya know, taking off the old and sliding on the new one. TOUGH
My Mom Always Eats The Chocolate And Puts It Back In The Freezer Like That

Load More Replies...My Roommate Has Difficulties In Finding The Right Hole
I did this once. I think I was drunk, and yes it was difficult.
Load More Replies...This looks like it could be problematic with other things in life ... finding the right hole is important in so many situations
I read the caption, I wanted to make a silly sex joke, but maybe I should not.
Jesus. His girls have to have an arrow tattooed to show him the right one
THE REAL HOLE IS BIGGER THAN THE HOLE HE/SHE MADE
"My Roommate Has Difficulties In Finding The Right Hole" Michael on The Office: That's what she said.
Second, it’s following through financial commitments so that none of the roommates feel pressured. Also, chores should be done without reminding one another, so make sure to set up a schedule in the communal zone.
How My Wife Loads The Dishwasher
My boyfriend AFTER I SHOWED HIM EXACTLY HOW TO DO IT A MILLION TIMES. I go to check the next time and he still hasn't figured it out
He probably has figured out, but either he doesn't care or he hopes you will get tired showing him and do it on your own 😂😂😂😂
Load More Replies...When I was living with my ex I used to wonder why the dishes weren't clean after a dishwashing. Turned out he didn't know that you have to put detergent in EVERY TIME you run it!! This was a forty year old man. And yes, I dumped him.
My husband tries his best to cram in as many dishes as possible and then I find bowls and cutlery with vestiges of food stuck to them, big surprise. I have been nagging him about this since he's been home working. It seems obvious if you overload the machine, things are NOT getting clean.
Does she think it works like a clothes washer, filling up with water and agitating all the dishes around??
well if you keep showing them..then they wont have to do dishes. Madness method 101
The Way My Family Leaves The Toothpaste
You're lucky. When my brother and I still lived under the same roof, he would do this all the time. I tried using my own toothpaste, but he would just take it and do the same. When I tried hiding it he always managed to find it and leave it a mess.
Load More Replies...I AM DISGUSTED! MY MUM DOES THIS, AND DOES NOT WASH HER TOOTH BRUSH EITHER! EWWW! LUCKLIEY MY HUSBAND DOES NOT DO THIS.
Even the tone it’s bit bugs me, and I don’t want to clean because then it’s hard and sticky and - just ewww
My Wife Ate Every Single Marshmallow In A Family Sized Box Of Count Chocula. Every Single One
Not sure there's any more sugar in the marshmallows than the cereal tbh. Those types of cereal are packed with sugar/sucrose/dextrose or whatever else they want to call it.
Load More Replies...Marshmallows are hardly part of cereal... Signed, A Person Who Gets Flabbergasted by the Idea of Eating Candy for Breakfast

Load More Replies...This Is How My Mom Puts The Knives Away In The Drying Rack
I actually put the knives this way so they don't blunt or rust. I live in a household of 4 and so far nobody's been stabbed lol
Load More Replies...Dry your knives by hand and put them away. This is both unsafe to the people and damaging to the knife.
Well i live in a house of 5 and IVE been stabbed
Load More Replies...My husband does that. He stabbed himself once. I was kind of forced to say 'I told you not to put them like that'.
My sister did the same thing in the dishwasher!!! Thankfully it only took me a few nasty cuts til I finally remembered to look closely before reaching in.
Lost my balance and ended up with a knife in my hand because of that. Knives point down every time and stuff it blunting them. I can buy a new knife.
Load More Replies...According to Fredric Neuman, it’s best not to keep close track of everything you do for your roommate. “Weighing every action on a scale leads invariably to someone feeling disadvantaged,” he argues, so it’s best not to set your expectations too high.

Less Than 2 Days After Moving In, One Of My Roommates Scratched My New, Non-Stick Pan With Metal Utensils
Husband does that. I stopped buying Teflon.
Load More Replies...My dad did this to mine while living with me when they were building their house. He is a chef!!! I only eve use that pan when they are over since he refused to replace it :(
My 28 year old son texted me the other day asking why his nonstick pans were scratched. I asked about his usage and found out he was scrambling his eggs in the pan to save dirtying a bowl & using a metal fork. I said how lazy do you have to be to worry about an extra bowl to wash? I told him if he's that lazy then to get a nylon whisk. He had no idea you couldn't use metal. I tried many, many times to teach my boys to cook, they couldn't be bothered & now none of them know what they are doing in the kitchen and regret it.
I have a 9 year old that has taken to cooking. I am teaching him, in detail, about utensils, cooking and procedure. (at 9 he can make a perfect roux, that of course, leads to a perfect sauce). I believe all mothers should teach their boys how to 1.cook 2. basic sewing 3. manners and etiquette) ( I also think that all mothers should teach or find a teacher for their girls to know basic auto mechanics, electronics, construction and manners and etiquette) Along with my boys culinary skills, he is an awarded athlete in swimming. This boy is like a fish in water. What better man can he become but athletic, polite, and mannered in all aspects of life. I am going to leave this world sure that he is able to take care of himself in every way...it is up to him to find love, his passion and path in life...I just want him to know the basics.
Load More Replies...Off topic but Teflon is really bad for us. Dupot was sued for this. They had a plant in Virginia and just about everyone either died of cancers or the women on the Teflon line bore children with birth defects. Teflon was initially made for the military; for their tanks so they would be waterproof.
Stop buying non stick pans that can scratch. They are very very toxic. There are alternatives that may cost more at first but will save your life in the long run.
NEVER use non-stick! My city is contaminated by 3M due to the old toxic chemicals for making non-stick pans. The chemicals are basically indestructible. So, they just come up with something new we'll find out is toxic in 20 years.

Live With A Girl They Said, Things Will Be Clean They Said
ROFL... I've seen worse at a woman's apartment. No idea how male bachelors got the reputation for being messy compared to females.
Oh, there are PLENTY of examples where the male bachelor (or non-bachelor, for that matter) is sloppy as f.ck. I do think, though, that it is a gender-neutral fault in people to not care about their living-spaces. I'm pretty sloppy, but not to THAT extend. And I live alone.
Load More Replies...I could never, ever be that messy!!!!! I want to tidy it all up and then clean the bathroom for good measure. And then do the rest of their house because it is probably just as bad....
not all girls do this! I share a bathroom with my sister and it's the cleanest bathroom in the house.
Everything I own looks like this. But then, I've got ADHD and we're a bit disorganized sometimes.
Load More Replies...This Is How My Boyfriend Leaves The Sink After He Shaves
The amount of disgusting-ness also depends on what he shaved exactly. I call it "the beard-to-crack scale".
Load More Replies...My ex used to do this, and usually right after I had cleaned the bathroom it drove me nuts
Load More Replies...I put toilet paper in the sink when I shave using my electric razor. Makes cleaning it much easier.
You can also use a towel and shake it into the trash :)
Load More Replies...that's what my stepson does. Made him clean up the mess several times and it seems to have gotten better. men can be such lazy bastards
My Husband Doesn't Want The Case To Get Scratched And Cause An "Eyesore"
I don't think it's scratched. I think those are wrinkles in the protective film.
Load More Replies...How do people scratch their computers? It's like the same people who keep the plastic on their TV and monitor screens? who is scratching that? are you touching your screen so much?
Yeah ikr, those people dont get that most glass screens and pc cases are scratch proof these days.
Load More Replies...leaving that cover makes an eyesore worse than if it was scratched and cracked to the point of being almost opaque, this is ruining the aesthetics of a computer that you probably spent tens to possibly hundreds extra on because it has good aesthetics
Eugh. I can just FEEL all homes and venues in a roughly 20 tile radius have 2 happiness points removed.
I Went To The Fridge To Get Milk For My Cereal But Someone Put The Milk Back With This Much
my dad is alway, but he over react, i leave enough for a bowl o cereal, jut not enough for his monster bowls
Load More Replies...This should be common sense, but you’d be surprised how many roommates actually don't comply with not going into your roommate’s bedroom unless they are present. Setting boundaries before starting to live together is a great way to make sure everyone is one the same page.
For some people, common sense may vary, and letting everyone know you’re not comfortable with anyone visiting your room without you present is a simple way to avoid miscommunication.
Day 6 Of Living With A Roommate For The First Time. I’m Looking For A New Place
Gotta wonder...who exactly do they think is going to clean this up? Oh, right...Mommy.
If they are anything like the girls I used to live with, this will be after a very long lecture on how each of them is more OCD about cleanliness than the other. Yeah. I love living alone.
Load More Replies...I am so easy going about many things. Leave your dirty dishes? ok fine I suppose. Don't throw away empty milk cartons? fine, I will. But, if you put food in my sink, (mine is without a garbage disposal), YOU will FEEL my WRATH.. I do not even mind washing dishes by hand, I find it soothing. I put on "Levon" by Elton John and the warm soapy water and bubbles calms me, gives me a few undisturbed moments to myself. BUT food in the sink, makes me gag. Scrape the plate first by all that is holy, please.
burnt piece of toast in the sink???? thats a pretty designed knife tho it does not deserve to be there in that filth *steal*
How do you make a sink that disgusting in such a short period of time?
My Roommate Can’t Read
I can imagine how annoying it must be living with bad roommates. My aunt had one in college and the roommate was so lazy. My aunt then got tired and she said she would not cook for anyone anymore.(And yes, she also did that for the roomate). So, my aunt was a hardworking person and she would make dinner early and go off to work. Then, the roommate would eat her dinner and she would e hungry. Also, she wasn't very rich back then and the roommate was a monster, in my opinion.
I hate commenting on comments with my own story but yours inspired me. Me grandma had a neighbor that she invited over for dinner once, I repeat one night. she kept coming over at dinnertime afterwards. Three weeks in my grandma let her dog lick the dishes and put them away in the cabinets in front of this women. She never came back. Love listening to my grandma's stories😂
Load More Replies...They... Put... The... Dirty... Dishes... Back... In... The... Cabinets...
This idiot did this deliberately, so they wouldn't be asked again to help with this task. Feigned ignorance is a thing amongst those who expect everyone else to do household work for them.
IDK. My husband does it. All. The. Time. I have repeatedly asked that he not do dishes but he keeps wanting to "help."
Load More Replies...That is not ignorance, that is passive-agressive behavior and total lack of respect for anyone other than themself. RUN! You do NOT have to put up with any one else's free-loading.
This is worse than not loading the dishwasher. Now you have to track down dirty things like you will remember what was in there. Gross.

We Are A Family Of Four
either somebody has a secret family or they have ghosts with great hygiene
Get rid of these, and buy each person their own color of toothbrush.
not that easy with kids... every time I buy them new toothbrushes, they just refuse to throw away the old ones. So the old toothbrushes pile up like that (I sneakily throw them away from time to time, but they usualy notice and throw a tantrum. and no, explaining never worked)
Load More Replies...Ew!! Unsanitary. The human mouth is a disgusting place, and y'all are sharing your germs.
IKR?! We all keep ours separate... I never understood why they have to be SOCLOSE!
Load More Replies...Throw them all out and give each person a holder with their name and a toothbrush of their own colour...this is insanitary.
Gross to have all the toothbrushes in a slow dance together. All the bacteria going on . And that purple one on the right and short purple and white on the left should be tossed, bent bristles are bad for the gums.
Exactly who keeps purchasing and unwrapping the new toothbrushes w/o throwing the old ones out?
We Love Awful Roommates
So just clean it up and lock it in your bedroom seeing you're the only one who knows how to keep it clean!!! *revenge monster moves*
ok- I have had room-mates leave ridiculous signs all over the house- and I lived in a multi-person house... these signs drove me crazy... its like, you learned how to use your words at what age? and instead of speaking with me you leave a passive aggressive sign. Me being me, wouldn't clean it out how petty I thought the sign was... I cant stand passive aggressiveness.
My Damn Family
In my experience, and mine only, we just use the tins for what's being used most to least, and the labels come from the factory. I put sticker on the lid with what's really in it, just in case, but I don't think anyone will ever mistake the whole wheat flour for the green tea, LOL.
Load More Replies...We had some EMPTY salt shakers, so I put some SUGAR in one, to sweeten my coffee when in town. I labelled it with "ATTENTION SUGAR" but my mom sometimes confuses them and sweet the potatoes. She once salted the strawberries too... White powder isn't always what you think!
This is another traditional concept that I have done away with. Canisters take up valuable counter space. I have a sugar bowl and a salt shaker, that I refill when needed. Everything else, like flour and coffee etc can remain in the original sack or package, in the pantry or fridge.
I always split my flour bags when i open them - stupid glued up tops!

actually most of the strippers I know trade out the ones to the house for larger bills throughout the evening.

Yep, or a short trip to the bank, they will exchange for larger bills.

This Is How I Cut My Pizza To Avoid Cutting Pepperoni. My Girlfriend Said To Post It To The Internet
Gross! I don't want anyone else touching my toppings. And if it's his personal pizza let him cut it how he wants.
Load More Replies...No, you still have some huge areas of no pepperoni, so you either get one or zero, but you usually don't eat a whole pepperoni in one bit anyways, right? Just grab a mouthful wherever your teeth land. All this does is ensure different sizes for each portion.
Load More Replies...Meh, if it works it works. My pizza cutter is terrible so my slices always look terrible. p:
It sticks on the knife and after cutting they all are askew. I hate it, so i move them to my liking and the middle one is pizza-cutter-tip (I eat it before my SO sees it and wants his share)
Load More Replies...This doesn't really matter or hurt anyone unless they're sharing that pizza

I Love My Wife Dearly, But This Is How She Leaves The Ice Cream After Getting Some For Herself
I've never seen this before. Why did she need to destroy half the carton?
Buy a carton for each of you. If she goes after your carton, this is not "cute" behavior. This is some form of selfish aggression.
I know I tread on unsteady ground here, but I'm reminded of an old girlfriend who - during certain times - seemed as though she would gladly destroy anything that stood between her and her chocolate fix.
Its called stress eating with ice cream it gets serious trust me ive seen my mom do it
How My Girlfriend’s Mum Stores The Washing Liquid
Would you drink milk that was standing in the laundry room? Wait - never mind Tesco is British I think, and they often have a washingmashine in the kitchen. You're right - this could end very badly.
Load More Replies...Doing this is illegal in my state. My brother has been suffering for years with lung problems after his stupid boss put herbicide in a coke bottle and placed it near where my brother keeps his drinks. My brother drank some of the herbicide. He has to go for an MRI coz his dr is very concerned about the continuous coughing he has had since. And no he is not a smoker and never has been.
I have to admit, i can imagine if the regular bottle was leaking or something you'd do this, but surely you should write warnings all over and leave it with the laundry stuff
In my family this is common... but most of the time it’s just labeling the pudding as cheese...
Load More Replies...Milk ones are usually less sturdy then laundry detergent bottles as well. Could just remove the label, that would help. Then a sharpie...

The Husband Used My Favorite Knife As A Garden Tool
He broke it!!!! I've been married 25 years next month. One of the first things I did was tell him not to use certain knives for other than cutting food, don't touch my fabric scissors. Must have worked we made it 25 years
Time to change the DNA on that tool and upgrade its usefulness. “My Husband? I don’t recall having one. What do you think of my garden? I use all an natural, organic and lifetime lasting fertilizer.”😡😁
If my husband did this ---- wait, he'd be doin g yard work an dI'd be ecstatic. never mind....

Put a line on the countertop to divide it (doesn't have to be middle). Anything that wanders over just gets relocated to the sink (or trash, if you wish).
How hard is to pick something up and put it right back where you got it?
I would take all of this stuff and throw it into a box. Throw... Not put nicely in

My Roommate Left A Surprise In The Kitchen, While I Was Outside
Sorry I wasn't trying to do anything I accidentally somehow thought that the roommate was a girl.

The Cord For My Wife’s Vacuum
My wife has her own vacuum. She insisted that the one I bought was too heavy for her. So now we have 2.
Load More Replies...I didn't know, that there was such a thing as a his and her Vaccuum 😳 Actually, I think he means, "He doesn't vacuum at all", she does all the Vaccuuming! I'm not sure why. he couldn't just untangle the cord 4 her?
May have been her favorite vacuum before she moved in
Load More Replies...What kind of cord is that even? Doesn't look like any vacuum-cord I've ever seen.
Normal cord put away badly many times and twirled into a mess. Not a good way to treat electrical cable.
Load More Replies...Good grief. This cord looks as if it belongs to a landline phone decades ago.
For some unknown reason, the song "firestarter" startet playing in my mind

Punishable by fates worse than death if you do that to mine. (I'm female, but NOBODY messes up my tools.)

no, no. you can just fix him with the socket set.

I'd say this is how my husband leaves the tools, except most of the pieces would be in other random boxes.

My Husband Never Finishes A Pack Of Gum Before Opening A New One
This is my hubby too, but to be fair he does keep them in his work bag which does get fine concrete dust in. He could put them in a ziplock bag to protect them from the dust though instead of them going to waste.
Chew most of it in one and put it on his car seat, he will learn when in the office they see him with it all over his bum bum
There's a difference between finishing a pen and emptying it completely. A pen loses its function when its low on ink and writing becomes very cumbersome. It's finished but not completely empty. A pack of gum on the other hand, is finished when it's completely empty.

This was banned at our house, couldn't fit the rest in a glass? Drink it out of the container, find someone else to drink it or drink it when you could fit it in the glass. You could not just leave it like that or else you would get in trouble
I drink part of the glass, then pour the rest in.

My Dad Does This With Every Single Piece Of Trash He Has. Just Push The Lid Down It Isn’t That Hard
One renter here (not sure who) throws trash in the can with no liner in it, will let it overflow onto the floor.
Only the lid. The cup itself counts as a composite and takes more energy input to recycle than it is worth.
Load More Replies...UM. The other side of the lid is blocked. It's physically impossible for him to do that unless you want multiple scratches all over your wall
My Wife Is Incapable Of Finishing A Drink
My ex would do that, too. Said he'd gotten broken glass in a drink more than once, so he never drains the drink. Sadly for me, though, he would just leave his coffee-with-milk sitting around the house; I'd find it weeks later with an inch of green fungus growing on it.
Reminds me of the little girl in "Signs'" (film by MNightShyamalan)...
I do this too because I was brought up drinking leaf tea and it had bits in the bottom even after straining.
maybe she has Cenosilicaphobia of fear of empty glasses (you learn something new everyday)

Before you ask, yes he eats them throughout the week.
Who are you to prevent your roomate from starting a salmonella farm?
I once worked away where we shared a common area to wait around and eat during the day. We had to explain to one girl why she shouldn't buy a chicken curry and keep it warm all day on the radiator so she could snack on it as and when. She was very sweet but definitely one sandwich short of a full picnic. She also put a whole raw egg in the microwave. The egg exploded.
It's like that movie Girl Interrupted...the one that had whole chicken carcasses everywhere...Roommate Interrupted
My Brother Never Finishes Cheese Dip. He Keeps Buying Them

Same, foil is my nemesis, I have often got so angry at it that I ruin the thing completely.

The Way My Roommate Can Never Finish A Water
If the water from the tap is as good [or even better] than the water bought in plastic bottles [plasticizers!] I dont even understand the need to buy these bottles. Where I live [NL] tap water is of a very high quality and buying bottles is besides extremely expensive in comparison, also environmetal unfriendly.
Load More Replies...In my country - The Netherlands - we have very good tapwater (without chlorine) so I never buy bottled water for home use. But not every country has tasty, drinkable tapwater. For example, I don't like the (strong) chlorine taste of the tapwater in France, Spain and Italy, though most of the times it is safe to drink. And when on holiday in India, I couldn't drink the tapwater because it gave me stomach ache and diarrhea, but locals drink it without any problems.
Load More Replies...Also my fiance. Owns two dozen reusable bottles... won't stop buying sealed bottles of water from the store because she "trusts them" and then questions if they've been tampered with...

My Sister Only Eats The Chocolate From The Top Container On The YoCrunch Yogurts, Leaving The Rest Of Us With Plain Vanilla Yogurt
Why don´t you buy just chocolate yoghurts, when you don´t like vanilla?
Not that my parents ever bought stuff like that, but we would have been bollocked for that kind of thing. Either you eat the whole thing or you don't have any.
If you don't like yoghurt, don't buy yoghurt.... Dumping candy into the yoghurt and you end up with something that has more sugar than ice cream.
Thank you! They're not yogurts, they're deserts...or desserts? I forget which one.
