My roommate works in a nursing home. Last night he said he prefers bagging dead bodies to, say, selling a lawnmower. He said it's true that "women rot while men age", and wanted to describe the "rotting" process of the uterus. (I'm a woman, he's a man). He also walks around talking to himself loudly all the time. I should mention here that he has generally been very nice, generous, and helpful… and I also wonder if he doesn't fit the psychological profile of a deranged killer.

Wow. I am so glad I never had a roommate. I know those situations would be hard but I agree with Jenna. There are times when it is absolutely appropriate to put your foot down. It's either that or get walked on.

My freshman year roommate was a hardcore catholic. She also had eating disorder(involved with throwing up in our room) and ADD( involved with ALWAYS walking around in the room). She got up every morning at 7, FREAKING 7!!, to read bible.

I had a weird roommate once… my goodness doesnt like to clean and do laundry, so our dorm room would smell weird all the time. Would dominate the tv which was mine to begin with. He was soo annoying and would always play his pc game and talking loudly into the mic when i'm trying to study or sleep…

My freshman year roommate was a horrible person. From her pet millipedes to her unrestrained narcissism parading as religious beliefs to the excessive amounts of back hair, I considered death to be a nice reprieve from that year. I made up for it by excessive amounts of sexiling and boozing. Ha.

Wow. Why don't you people stand up for yourselves and tell them that you are shutting the window or switching sides of the room or tell them not to change behind you. Demand some respect for yourselves.

My roommate also never let us keep the door open, but would change her clothes in front of the wide open window…which was where my desk was, so she'd be standing behind me with nothing on.

My room mate kept her pet rat on her at all times, and giggled whenever it "piddled" on her.

Wow… this makes me afraid! I'm actually a freshman now and I've never had to share a room ever!… Wow, do I ever hope for a remotely "normal" roommate, please Lord, I beg you!
