Roommates

This topic does not apply to family members. If you haven't moved out of your family's house yet then there's no reason for you to reply to this thread... well, unless you guys rent out rooms in your house.

So what's your opinion on roommates? Everyone tell me they're awful and to avoid them, but in my experience, it just takes the right combination. I've had my share of both decent and shitty roommates. I think it really depends on the people. Then again, I've only had one roommate that I didn't mind living with - I'm going to be moving in with him again shortly. All the others just had no respect.

For example, when I lived in Orange County, I shared a room with a 50-year-old Vietnam veteran (he'd remind us everyday). Every single god damned night he'd put his blanket over his head, squeeze a lotion bottle (I could hear it), and talk to himself while masturbating loud as fuck. I could literally hear the fap of his dick and hand. That wet smacking sound with the lotion. Blah. He was louder than hell when he came too. "OH YEAH OH YEAH OH YEAH... ahhh~"

What a dick.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I shared a room with him.

How ya doing, buddy?

You mean you didn't pick up on it after, oh I don't know, the first month, or so?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
