These are the roommates that will make your friends say, in response to your invite to come over, “I don’t know, is she gonna be there?” Some roommates are worse than others, but they all manage to annoy us in their own, unique ways. Whether you’re a girl or a guy, you’ve definitely dealt with at least one of them.
1. The roommate who can’t even be bothered to pick up her clothes, let alone the ramen she ate last week
This one is pretty self explanatory. Some people are okay with their roommates being messy, but when your room starts to smell like old food and laundry I’m pretty sure most people would say you have a problem.
2. The Neat Freak
This roommate is the opposite of the first one. They vacuum twice a day and always ask you to pick up your clothes. This one’s actually kind of nice to have around, as long as you’re not too messy.
3. The roommate who always eats your food and borrows your clothes without asking
Definitely one of the more annoying ones. There is nothing more aggravating than coming back to your room after being in class all morning and finding out your meatball sub you were saving for lunch has been eaten.
4. The roommate who is always sleeping
This roommate is annoying because you can’t have friends over to study at 3 p.m. without interrupting their nap… that is unless they’ve just been sleeping all day. And do you want to watch Netflix without headphones? Forget it, they’re sleeping.
5.The roommate who never offers to help with dishes or any cleaning
These roommates are the worst. If you don’t take out the trash, it piles up for weeks and she doesn’t even seem to notice. And it's not like you haven’t asked her a million times or there’s a note on the fridge or anything… the worst is that they’ll probably passive-aggressively text you asking you to do the dishes since they're out of town.
6.The roommate who’s constantly smoking weed and playing video games.
This roommate isn’t so much annoying as they are confusing. How do you do this and still go to class? Please, I would really like to know. The only problem with these roommates is when your RA comes to do a fire inspection and asks why there’s plastic bag over the fire alarm.
7. The roommate who is always messed up
This roommate can be funny unless it’s a Tuesday night and you’re studying for midterms while they’re shot-gunning beers. Yes, I would love to go out with you Friday night but no, I’m not skipping my midday lecture to go to a party. I once had a guy in my hall who was drunk for an entire week straight. This is the type of guy that brings beer to class in a coffee cup.
8. The roommate who always brings home a guy/girl, even during the week
Again this roommate can be funny, but enough is enough. We know its college and YOLO but just go to her room for once please. This roommate might even have a long distance boyfriend/girlfriend they always cheat on which is just not cool.
And if you’re reading this and haven’t had to deal with one of these roommates, then I’m sorry but you probably are that roommate
