MF_James posted:Yeah this is NOT on uncommon thing in other countries (putting toilet paper in a bin). Most people wouldn't disagree that poop-stained/smeared toilet seats are nasty and should be cleaned up unless they're filthy shitlords, but they're more willing to debate whether or not it's ok to let the roll spin like a hamster wheel to get the amount you'll use.

As long as there's some derailing about too much toilet paper, I figured I'd go hunting for content related to it, and found a bit more than I bargained for. Not from Reddit, but from Penny Arcade's forum: My new roommate is a toilet paper fiend quote:There's quite the backstory behind my current apartment situation, but long story short: I was planning on rooming with a college friend, he screwed me over last minute, I found myself signing a lease with a couple other university grad students sight unseen. Not the best of ideas, but I was pretty low on options at that point -- I had to live somewhere. So what could be the reason this dude goes through so much paper? A few months later, OP updates: quote:So after a few months of observation I have some news to report: More posts from the OP: quote:Believe me, I don't need more reasons to hate the guy. He got on all three of our collective poo poo lists months ago. quote:Hmm. So my girlfriend suspects that he is, indeed, doing it over/into the sink. We find a LOT of soap and... other stuff caked onto there, and we didn't think that much of it before but And it just gets worse. quote:Guys, I understand where you are coming from here, especially when all you have to go on is this thread. But in my defense please keep in mind that the first post in this chain was over six months ago, when the guy first moved in. The toilet paper, paper towels, and the minor kleptomania was an annoyance to be sure, but at that point the guy seemed manageable -- I just needed advice for a guy with some bizarre habits who would lie, dissemble, or simply not listen to me when I asked him to stop or offered up compromises. The thread doesn't end in a resolution unfortunately, but with this nasty closer: quote:Aaaaaaand the sink pipes just broke. Surprise, surprise. Just eyeballing the pipes with a flashlight it looks like the problem is that they are basically clogged with this kid's puke.

Is there any hope of salvaging even a friendship, after what I(40F) did to him(25M).quote:We met when he was graduating college. I never thought it would turn into a 3 year, on again/off again romance. He moved away almost 2 years ago, but we did the LDR thing and agreed to see other people. We would meet up on weekends, vacation with each other, etc.

NOTE: "like 50" can under certain circumstances mean "six" he does apparently love shoes though, maybe it actually meant "53"

Were there boots, I wonder? Maybe some shoes where he had gone to the trouble to do some alternate lacing techniques? This is the sort of thing that could really mess up your day

Gaunab posted:What's the issue he casually dropped on her? The fact she didn't want to elaborate on it suggests it's more harmless than "said he wouldn't be at his apartment but was" so I imagine it was something like "I know I said I'd leave you some KFC but I actually left you some Taco Bell ok bye"

I knew a guy when I worked at a hotel who had a shoe collection. Limited editions, would wear any one pair once a month or so, kept em spotless. He had at least 50 pairs. The big sports shoes manufacturers do limited runs for nerdy collectors and rap stars. I tried desperately to get ahold of one of the "Alien Stomper" remakes of Ellen Ripley's space sneakers from Alien once. I think I had looked into the crazy shoe poo poo because of that guy and it just happened that there was something I wanted. They make runs of like 50 shoes and poo poo, though, so good luck.

P-Mack posted:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundling_(tradition) From the description it still does not sound like "two people put in bed, under watch, separated by board". It sounds like "together in bed" (the only part that makes sense) was the common part, the "separated by board" was rare and kooky, and the "under watch" literally never. Also it that it was just as common for travelers renting half beds as prospective couples. So yeah the description posted here before the links was false or at best a vague half-truth.

He wore a pair to work and stepped in a mud puddle once. Lost his goddamn poo poo over it which was somewhat amusing since when he wore any of them, he'd make sure to bring it up to whoever would listen.

Real answer: I consider it a happy ending because they found it early and the boyfriend forced her to go and if it was left up to her, she would just continue hearing people narrating to themselves until she dropped dead at a stoplight.

Me [25F] with my boyfriend[25 M] together 3 years, living together 3 months, he won't stop peeing on me in the shower.quote:So I have been with my boyfriend "Mark" for three years and we moved in together in November and have been drifting towards discussions of marriage. We each had our own apartments (w/roommates) but I was pretty much living at his apartment full time so we decided to give living together a try and it seemed to be going well. Generally we are on the same page when it comes to finances/goals/etc. He's totally just seeing if he can do it without her noticing
