I rented a room in my house to a coworker. I found him smoking meth, so I kicked him out. He called the police and tried to claim squatters rights. The police arrested him and he got fired. This is my roommate story.

I lived with three of my best friends last year and it was pretty great. We all got along, we all had jobs and never got into any huge financial issues. I ended up moving in with my girlfriend this year and kind of miss them, though

Every city I've been it had no studio apartments open anywhere. Are you people just lucky or living in places where no one else wants to be?

I mean every time I've had roommates it's worked out pretty well some of them were dumb as hell but no non-rent payers or thieves unless you count food/beer thieves

I laugh at people who are so scared of basic human interaction that they find the idea of roommates abhorrent.

My roommate pays me $600 in rent a month, is that $600 you have OP I did not think so. I think my worst roommate story is that once I had a roommate that made chickpeas because he was a health nut and they smelled like butts. But then he bought a bag of cookies for me so I was like this is okay. Also once I rented out my extra room to a woman that would walk around in her underpants all day long for some reason and also made extra chili so that was pretty swell. drat good chili, too.

My living situation is just like Spaced, in that my roommate is a cool goon and we never have sex and I haven't done anything worthwhile since 2001.

I live with 2 roommates because we live in a absurdly expensive beach community in a great house and it rules here, but it costs a trillion dollars per second (rough estimate) worth it

would rather live with roommates is a better location than alone in a shittier one. i'm about 30 minutes from where I want to be but it's way cheaper and my only roommate is my  .poo poo can be annoying and i kinda miss times with roommates. if you guys can act halfway decent in terms of cleanliness and, most importantly, have your own poo poo going on then you'll be fine. if you can't close the door to your room and throw on headphones/chill then sorry you picked gay rear end roommates.

Roommates make for the best life experiences of strange humans. I once a had an overweight Hawaiian college roommate by the name of Kevin. He was the very definition of sloth. All he ever did when my other roommates were home was play video games in the living room and watch TV. So for a week we tried an experiment. On Monday, we removed the XBox (it wasn't his to begin with). He continued to watch TV. On Tuesday, we removed the cable cord. He attempted to watch crappy local channels with the rabbit ears. On Wednesday, we removed the television from the living room. He then spent the remainder of his evening in the campus lounge watching that TV. If your roommate is this much of a lazy introvert, I highly recommend doing this to get him out of the apartment. Other crazy things Kevin has done: -Will never sit in a chair like a normal human being. It's always at a slight angle or completely upside down. -Slept anywhere in ill-fitting shirts that revealed his massive gut. -Constantly ate the nastiest food ever brought over from Asia in frozen plastic containers. When he moved out, we tossed them all out the window in celebration. -Came home from classes early once to find him on the couch with a Gameboy in one hand and down his pants with the other. The triggering of the open door made him bolt off the couch so hard he fell onto the floor, hand still in pants, as he stumbled to the bedroom. -Received a 0 in Introduction to Multimedia class. In order to achieve this grade in the easiest of classes, you would have to do absolutely no work. I didn't even think this was possible.

While I was with my DnD group this weekend, my room mates got into a fight (they broke up a month ago). The downstairs neighbors called the cops due to the yelling and other scary sounds. Now one is in jail, and the other has a restraining order against him for 7 days. Now I'm watching movies on his big screen TV cuz ain't nothin he can do about it?? who's on top now idiots.

Did you learn any reasons from this thread why some people might want to have a roommate? Was this thread just a troll?

Maybe it's cool in some cases, but these two were insufferable. Playing games where the girl tries to lock the guy out of the house while he runs and checks all the doors, grab-rear end in the kitchen, and constant giggling. I think the lesson here is not to room with undergrads. A really obvious lesson.
