I have been fortunate to have had many awesome roommates, but my current one is a rather curious character. I know I've shared examples before.

Yesterday, the hand soap dispenser was empty, and his 100 oz. Costco refill bottle had very little left, so he decided to stretch the remains by mixing it with tap water, about half and half.

When I pumped on the hand dispenser, the contents shot across the sink and hit my shirt, because the consistency was so thin. So last night while out shopping, I bought a new refill. I dumped out his water mixture and topped it off with the new stuff.

Today, he is upset because I threw out his personal property.

I pointed out that his last bottle lasted for over a year, served its purpose, and what I dumped out was mostly water, and I replaced it with actual hand soap.

But no, what I did was show disrespect for his things.
I don't have any crazy stories off the top of my head, but I always got a kick out of people in college who would write on their food....esp when they would initial each egg in the refrigerator. Magic marker on the milk carton, on the cans of soup, on the cereal box, on the mustard, etc..

If someone is going to eat your food, writing on it wont stop them. And once they have used it, the evidence is gone, so, once again, writing on it wont stop anything.

I will admit to eating roommates food on occasion. Actually, it was more the drinking of their juice, as opposed to eating their food. If you left juice or Kool Aid in our fridge, I was going to drink it.

I think it was a subconscious revenge against roommate who used my soap in the shower.....and didnt always clean it off.....sick.
