I had a roommate who would jerk off at night. And I swear to god he knew, and he would purposely switch it up to shaking his leg when I moved in my bed and be all nonchalant about it like "what I shake my leg when I'm trying to sleep. Like every night."

Fucking asshole didn't even try to switch to BAGD before dropping out.

I think I got off pretty lucky when I was in the digipen housing thing. I was in the first year they had it set up. My roommates were pretty great whenever we crossed paths. Some of the people I hung out with though…not so much. One of them lived on their own in a studio and I think they only cleaned their place the first time we came over and never touched it again. A couple of us in the group actually tracked how long it took for soda cans and milk cartons to make it to the garbage, usually they only lasted two weeks before the germophobes cleaned up for the guy…. If the towers of cans or empty pizza boxes didnt block Dark Souls, then they stayed put.

When I got my deposit back, I was told that there were some groups that would not get any back because there were holes in the walls and other sorts of permanent damage.

…man going through this board makes me feel so much better about leaving…

Oh god where do I even begin

My roomate takes up about 3/4 of the space in the room with random wiccan shit, which I don't really mind since I rarely go in the room. She also is an anti-GMO all natrual organic blah blah blah hippie which I would normally be fine with BUT she only drinks from plastic water bottles, puts zero effort into recycling, and leaves the lights on in every room she goes to when she leaves in the morning. The only thing worse than a hippie is a hypocritical one. I don't really care about that too much either, at least in comparison to trying to sleep in the same room as her. She watches anime every night in bed on her laptop which faces my bed, but I can even put up with that by leaning over her to shut it. The biggest problem byfar is that she snores louder than my headphones at full volume (not always that loud, but she does constantly snore loud enough that I need headphones). I have never slept in a room with someone who snored nearly as loud, but I have also never slept in the same room as someone who is morbidly obese so maybe that's a reason.

On top of all that she isn't even my least favorite roomate, another is far worse not because of habits but because she is a genuinely terrible person. Our sink broke for about 3 to 4 days so dishes piled up in the sink, including a spaghetti pot I used. Every other dish I used in that time went straight to the dishwasher. I used the dishwasher for anything small but other roomates just left stuff like bowls in there. After the sink was fixed, I forgot about the spaghetti pot so instead of asking me to wash it other roomie decided that all of the dishes in the sink were mine and called the RA for an intervention about this. I then decided to wash every dish in front of them while announcing with each one "I have never used this dish since I have been here," except for the pot of course. I do know that at least the majority of them were from the first dormie I mentioned, but the second one did not place any blame on her. It doesn't help that she is a badger who constantly gargles Bioware's dick, or that I heard her recently talking about how she was amazed by how good Battlefront 3 was. She also happens to be a SJW who will try her hardest to make fun of "white people lol" and comes off completely racist in the opposite way. Such as going on for several minutes about how whole foods is such a "white person store lol" while there was a black dude behind us clearly tired of this shit.

Now I would be fine with ALL of this if they just let me sleep in the living room, but no they are uncomfortable because I left my shirt in there once and they don't like feeling like they are keeping me up too late by staying in the living room. If you assholes stay up until 3AM every night I'd still get more sleep out there than I do in the room with the snoring.

This was way longer than I thought it would be, it's definitely detailed enough that it can be traced back to me but honestly I don't care at this point. I expect no future consequences for two badgers and a lazy BFA hating me for the rest of my life because I expect them to go nowhere anyways. I gave up a long time ago with helping them do programming or art.

PSA to everyone in DigiPen Housing: If you live in a 2-bedroom apartment with 3 other people, as a group you're paying double what the local apartment complexes charge. You could pay the same with one person you can stand and NOT have to share a bedroom.

I knew that when I was in the housing program, but this allowed me and my family to bypass credit checks…i think…i dunno…looking back I probably would have been better without it, since I was couch surfing at my friend's so often cuz late night d&d studying

yeah but it comes with 100 down internet, is fully furnished, and you don't have to pay utilities. Plus it's generally easier to sign up for.

Plus I have super great roommates. We're all clean (or at least semi-clean) and get along together. (pic related).

Holy crap. Unless they rotated around the furniture, you're actually in the apartment I lived in for the one year I was in DigiPen housing - I recognize the chair, TV stand, etc. Weird.

Seems like you got lucky and got decent roommates - mine were loud, prissy, and drunk respectively.

>>2903

fair enough; I'm just pointing out that it's a decent option if you think that DP housing sucks.

I just realized exactly why I got such good roommates. I didn't come here straight out of high school - I took a year to make some money, while mildly pursuing further education at a community college so I could get into digipen and sustain myself here. All of my roommates have been to other colleges before as well, and I think they try to room people who have done this together.

I think I got into some kind of good housing bracket by being a freshman who *didn't* come straight out of high school.

>>2907

Logic? at digipen?? holy balls

That definitely would make the good roommate chance significantly higher…funny how life experience changes things like that

Yup, Gates. I'd specify which apartment but that wouldn't be wise

>I didn't come here straight out of high school

Biggest fucking protip that everyone should know before enrolling. Imagine how much better the school would be if you had to be at least 21 to attend or something, holy shit.

THAT SAID…

I started DigiPen at 22, my first roommate in DigiPen housing was also 22, and a total sack of shit regardless.

He would play Assassin's Creed IV while drinking rum and wearing sunglasses (??????) at midnight.

One time he was drunk and kept playing with a knife to the point where another roommate had to seriously tell him to stop because it was freaking him out.

He spent all of his money on Kraken rum and, from what I could tell, subsisted solely on that and instant mashed potatoes.

Every night, he would get super drunk, lie on his back in bed at night with his laptop on his fat belly, and just browse the internet for hours at a time… or so I thought at first! I always slept with my back to him because the dim light of the laptop would keep me up, a little bit. I often have trouble falling asleep immediately upon lying down in bed, and I learned pretty early on that this fucking assclown would wait about five minutes after I got in bed, assume I was asleep, and begin blatantly masturbating. I'm assuming this happened about every single night, because I caught him so many damn times.

I began my second semester by waking up for the first day of our shared early class (while he slept in) by stepping into the shower, only to find it covered in pubes, because apparently he decided to shave his dick the previous night, and, presumably due to how drunk he was (or maybe just because he was such a horrible person), he left his goddamn pubes there, in the shower.

But that's not even the worst of it.

Before first semester started, our other two roommates were staying with their parents at a hotel. Nightmare Douchebag Roommate got drunk watching anime by himself and passed out on the couch, snoring loudly. I was on my PC in the "dining room" and just sat there, in awe of how shitty someone could be…

…then he started vomiting in his sleep. He stumbled off the couch, barfing everywhere, and ended up on the floor in a puddle of his own puke. At this point, I was freaking out, thinking to myself, "holy fucking shit, I've seen fucking Breaking Bad, I know how this shit goes, he's going to fucking die right here, choking on his own vomit, and fucking… goddammit, now I have to deal with this."

I had to roll his fat fucking ass over so he was lying on his belly and not killing himself by inhaling his fucking puke. I have minimal training with like, saving lives, and really I should've just called 911 at this point, but after he got the rest of his rum-puke out of his system, he just fell asleep there, on the fucking carpet, snoring like a big fat dumbass.

I took a washcloth and wiped the puke from around his face and cleaned it up in the immediate vicinity around his face and head, and left it there for him to deal with the next day.

(Thinking back on this, how was I so fucking stupid? He could have died, and even though it would've been his own damn fault, I probably should've called 911 or something, ANYTHING. Just imagining waking up the next morning to find his stupid fat body, dead on the apartment floor, covered in puke, before the semester even began… that would have fucked me up, there would've been legal proceedings… Jesus Christ, I'm so lucky it didn't turn out any worse than it did.)

He didn't remember a damn thing the next day, and assumed that his drunk ass must've got the washcloth. When he asked me about what had happened, I kind of glossed over it because I thought, since I didn't know him yet very well, this SURELY must have been a weird outlier and not a grim sign of things to come.

I was super wrong!

Thankfully he was terrified of programming, despite being a BSGD, and dropped the fuck out shortly after second semester began.

I haven't always been the best roommate, but compared to that stupid gross fat fuck, I think I've been pretty alright.

I hope you realize there's a big company called Microsoft around here. They sell a bunch of used furniture for extremely cheap. You'd buy something like that in your living room, minus the carpet and electronics, probably $150. Sure it's used, but so would be the crap inside that place.

As for 100down, who gives a shit? You can get 20 down pretty much everywhere here for like $50.

I just don't see how it's $850 and why anyone would pay that when it's not required for first years.

>>2911

I think getting a third of your degree at a CC should be some unwritten rule. Holy hell, just spend the $100/credit a community college instead of bitching and moaning nonstop here "Oh god I gotta do english/math homework! I just wanna work on game!"

Age is just whatever. I didn't come here straight out of highschool, but half the people I hang out with are. It's just they're more likely to drop out since they don't realize how expensive coming here is and that they made a huge mistake of going into [insert degree].

Real talk. How would someone go about buying furniture from MSoft? Because that sounds like a solid deal.

My friends had a horribly smelly roommate who would almost never go to school, spending all of his CS classes making ASCII art and would take his free time to ride his bike, in the rain, with his laptop on the handlebars.

That being said, I was fortunate enough to have a pretty good housing situation last year despite being fresh out of high school, although everyone was messy because apparently digipen means people forget hygiene. Towards the end we got a new roommate, who was a total anti-SJW cuck who wouldn't shut up about "poor men" and "muh anxiety"

Well, asci art is pretty darn fun.
