i moved into a house once and the previous tenants had been using the inside of the windowsill as an ashtray. it was disgusting, and fake tan mitts (for applying it) under the bed. 3 girls were sharing the house.

which begs another question to you all, who do you think are cleaner to live with , guys or girls ? or does it depend on the individual ?

anyone lived with both that could make a judgement ??

Girls were much worse. Particularly the dirty bitch who left a used flange cartridge on the bathroom windowsill. WTF!

flange cartridge! I am horified.

midlandsmissus

Cartridge hahaha. In fairness women make more bodily mess so are bound to be messier. It can be really embarassing to make sure all things are hidden. But a window ffs!

bodice ripper

until like a week ago I was sharing a flat with one other girl.

She had a unicycle, 13 lizards, and a clown fetish - which she displayed all over the flat. She also took her synthetic dreads out occasionally and put them in the washing machine.

I miss her

The house was messy as fook, it was college but that has to hve been the most revoltin thing ever. We made a point of all tellin her to move it. She was some posh irish music student from d4 aswell. Maybe her servants usually picked them up.
That house was mad, that wasnt even the worst thing that happened. Some knob came knocking at 4am looking for one of the housemates who wasnt in. When i wouldnt let him in and closed the door, he took a dump in our driveway. Apparently he did it all the time

Yeah usually girls are much more discrete with female matters. That shocks me a little.

Ive lived with both and personally i think that guys are worse. It depends of course, some guys are very clean and organised, while some think its acceptable to generally treat the place like a dump.

Dont get me wrong, we were dirty feckers in that house but thats beyond a joke. And i've been informed its called an applicator. I think flange cartridge gets the intended use across better tho

Ah no! He left he gas on and left all of us in the sitting room smoking. But I had to get something in the kitchen and saw all the knobs and oven left on and thought "thats odd" then realised ....:eek: turned them off and packed my stuff, as did other housemates. He owned the house and was in some financial hot water.

That's not fair. I've never called you names. My hero, Michael Scofield, once forgave his friend tweener for telling Bellick about his escape plans because Bellick gave him chips. I guess I can forgive you too.

I wish I could meet some whackjob type people. Everyone I meet is so normal.. :pac:

It seems like I would definitely increase my chances if I moved out :rolleyes:

I shared a big house with 6 people as a student.One left and a new guy moved in, called Dominic.

Dom was a god freak with a drink problem and immediately got it into his head that I was an evil disciple of Satan.

What was really worrying was that he never confronted me on it, yet consulted the others, who obviously told me.Even though Dom couldn't beat eggs I actually started locking my bedroom door as I slept for fear of being knifed.

If he walked into a room he was in, ie kitchen or living room,he would start mumbling hymns and prayers and blessing himself.The others thought this was priceless.I did too but it did scream 'paranoid schizophrenia'.

He would spend hours in his room drinking cider and talking to god a sing hymns.

Then he locked himself in there for 3 days solid until there was no sound coming from his room ,only a stench of excrement.

One of the lads called the college after I said I reckoned he'd probably slashed his wrists and was only going to stink the whole neighbourhood.

Then,his parents arrived............more fcukin godfreaks,straight out of the 1950s, dressed like the cast of 'The Sullivans' .

They proceeded to bang on his door until he unlocked it and opened it.There he was balls naked, smeared in his own crap in a room full of empty cider bottles.

The parents rushed in closing the door behind them.What followed was 10 minutes of shouting, screeching,slapping noises and sobbing, by all three of them.Jesus' name was bandied about an awful lot.

Then a period of relative calmness ensued.All you could hear was 'rummaging'.

Finally,the door opened and the three of them came out with all Doms belongings.They came down through the house without saying a word to the rest of us,who were all mooching around pretending to be doing something so we might be able to watch the circus,

They left and that was the last I ever saw of Dom.Though I suspect he's in a forum somewhere telling other simpletons how he lived for 3 weeks with the Devil (that'd be me), but Jesus saved him with cider and poo

I lived with some guys for 3 weeks 1 of which was possessed by Satan. I used to keep him at bay by reciting scripture whenever he walked into the same as I was in. Things got so bad that Jesus himself told me to stay in my room, cover myself in scat, drink cider and pray. My parents showed up after 3 days of solitude in my sh!t filled room and we proceeded to scream about how Jesus was involved and beat the sh!t out of each other (excuse the pun). Then I went home with my parents and salvaged my soul with with some penance.

What a thing to mention in front of people. She must have went scarlet!
Yeah using my milk and bread is one thing, but my razor.............!!
A male housemate asked once if he could use my scissors as he needed to cut his toenails....at least he asked i suppose.

My attitude in life has always been you might as well say it, especially if its funny. Screw her the weirdo.
Didnt happen again :-)
Did you let him use them? :-)

Im still laughing at flange cartridge...ha! I dont get that girl, I have and Im sure most ladies here will know what im on about, 'period paranoia'. Im absolutely paranoid when I have my period that Ive left any trace anywhere, especially in some-one else's house/some-one else's car. Im constantly worryin that ive left a mark sumwhere. Of course it rarely happens, but its always in the back of my mind. Us poor wimminz!

You're evil, you could have saved her all that trouble by just telling her there's a 'Best Before' date on all her food

Dom, How's the form?..........Wait a second........... Dom would never use a computer,the devils desktop.More of a crayola kind of guy, I'd say.Hmmmm
If it's really you Dom, then what's your favourite hymn?And what brand of shoes do you wear Ecco or Adidas?Sorry I gota ask, but for all I know you might be some average, normal, well adjusted person, trying to set me up.:D
