My roommate and I had a bet on who could go the longest without using their phone. He was so desperate to win that he hid his phone in the oven (not turned on, of course). When he went to get it later, he completely forgot and pre - heated the oven. His phone started beeping like crazy. It was hilarious.
One of my roommates thought he could be a magician. He tried to do a disappearing act with a coin but accidentally threw it out of the window instead. He then had to go outside in his pajamas to look for the coin while we watched and laughed from the window.
Once, my roommate tried to cook for the first time. She was making pancakes but got so confused between salt and sugar. The pancakes came out tasting like a very strange, salty mess. We still laugh about it today.
There was a pair of gay roommates who decided to host a small LGBTQ+ friendly party in their apartment. They worked together to decorate the place with rainbow flags and made some really delicious snacks. During the party, they shared their coming - out stories with their guests, which inspired others to be more open about their identities. It was a really positive and inclusive event that brought the community closer.
One horror roommate story is about a girl whose roommate would steal her things. The girl would find her clothes missing or her makeup used up. And the roommate always denied it. It was really creepy as she could never trust her roommate and always had to be on guard.
One horror story is that my roommate never cleaned up after himself. The kitchen was always a mess with dirty dishes everywhere, and the living room was filled with his clutter. It smelled bad and attracted bugs. I had to constantly remind him, but he just didn't care.
One of my friends had a roommate who would stay up all night talking to herself. It was really creepy. She would mumble things that didn't make sense and sometimes even laugh out loud in the middle of the night. My friend was so scared that she ended up moving out after a few weeks.
I knew someone whose roommate was extremely noisy at night. They would play loud music or have friends over late, not caring that others were trying to sleep. The person tried to talk to the roommate about it, but the roommate was very rude and said they could do whatever they wanted in their own place. This made the living situation unbearable for the other roommate.
Well, my new roommate once surprised me with a home - cooked meal. She had just learned a new recipe and wanted to share it. It was a delicious pasta dish with a unique sauce she created herself. It was such a warm gesture that made me feel really welcome in our new shared place.
Well, I knew a person in NYC whose roommate was extremely noisy at night. The roommate would play loud music or have friends over late. It was impossible to get a good night's sleep. And also, this roommate would leave the bathroom in a filthy state after using it, which was really disgusting.
My drunk roommate once tried to climb into the wrong bed. He was so confused and when we told him it wasn't his, he argued that it was his 'new upgraded bed'. He finally realized his mistake when he saw his own stuff on the other side of the room. It was really funny to watch his dazed expression.
One time my roommate tried to cook a simple meal but ended up setting off the smoke alarm. The kitchen was filled with smoke and the food was completely charred. He just stood there looking confused while I was running around trying to open all the windows to let the smoke out.
Once, my roommate thought it would be funny to hide all my left shoes. I was running late for class and couldn't find any of them. When I finally found them in the microwave (of all places), we both had a great laugh.
