    Default OMG!! This is unbelievable (total asshole roommate rant)

    This morning, I was taking a shower when my roommate came home from work to get something I guess. By then the water was cold (hot water doesn't last long here) so I know to save scrubbing my feet w/ my pumice for last, so I can get my body out of the cold water, but scrub my feet with it. This is what I was doing when I heard him *pounding* on the door.

    He yells at me through the door. He's pissed that the water is running still, saying "I know you're not in there taking a cold shower, what's the water doing on? If you're trying to waste water that's pretty spiteful!" So I explain what I'm really doing, but I don't think he stuck around to hear me cause he didn't respond and I heard footsteps going away.

    I'm pretty irritated and the pounding on the door scared me, and him yelling through the door and accusing me of 'wasting water' was totally out of line. So I write him a note, saying, "It is rude to pound on the bathroom door and yell through it while people are in there! Please do not repeat P.S. Mind your own business "

    Keep in mind I'm moving out in 2 days. So fast forward to just now. I go outside to smoke, come back in and he's waiting for me in the kitchen. He says,

    "I'd like to talk to you about your note. At the end you said, "Mind your own business." I live here, I pay rent, so the water use IS my business. I was washing my hands in the kitchen and noticed the water is cold. I'm not fucking stupid, I know you're not taking a cold shower in there (confirmed he didn't listen to what I was saying this afternoon)

    He then crumples up the note, throws it at the ground near the fridge, saying, "You can take this note and shove it up your ass! I just want you to know what I think of you I'll be moving my truck... the fuck out of here... (he was mumbling towards the end of his rant, but those were the little snippets I understood.)

    So in response, I just say "that's great, Roger," (to which he says "It IS great!" WTF?) b/c, I just don't care what he thinks of me, and I'm not wasting energy arguing.

    I can't believe how angry he is though. This whole time he's been waiting for a reason to attack me for ANYTHING, I know he has, I could feel the hostility. Still, how absurd of him, and not to mention extremely vulgar.

    It sounds like there's been at the very least, some tension between the two of you, and perhaps he thought your motives was to run water (not using it) and waste his money?

    This doesn't sound normal...like people who generally get along. It sounds like there is distrust and some animosity between the two of you.

    Just try to avoid him during the rest of your stay. (I would say to try to explain yourself, but I think it's past that.

    Thx for the reply. It's not his money though, he isn't the landlord and water is included in the rent. There has been animosity in the past, but we haven't spoken this whole month, but I could sense he wanted to bitch at me more, and well, he got his opportunity today!

    It's so bizarre, I have never been talked to *this* disrespectfully even in the SC. Yet I have to hear it when I'm home.

    And you're right, explaining myself is futile now.

    Boundaries, a*hole! If it was me I would have punched him right in the mouth - glad I never had roommates and that you know how to keep your cool.

    I'm doing a little dance of gratitude to be living alone right now. I had a bizarre, confrontational roommate like that years ago. One time he crushed a box of tea bags (it looked like they had been stepped on) I had in the kitchen and then said they were his and accused me of having done it. Like, I know that sounds like a stupid made-up story, but that's just how fucking weird he was. He made it into a really big deal, too -- who crushes a box of tea bags anyway?! I mean, what? What even? I'm baffled by this almost 5 years later.

    Honestly, roommates are just the biggest source of WTFery. Who needs Twilight Zone or Black Mirror when you can have your mind blown 24/7 by how strange people are when you live with them? Living solo is the way to go. Glad you're almost done with that freakazoid!

    Ooooh I had a crazy roommate once too! It was during college and I had to move one year on really short notice right before the semester started so I ended up taking a room in an apartment full of randoms. This one girl was convinced I was eating her food, I never actually touched it but she would send me threatening text messages saying she was going to take me to small claims court and contact the tenants rights coalition to have me evicted. And one time she tried to get me evicted by calling the landlord to complain about me smoking pot in the house and the smell getting into the vents, I wasn't even home at the time. It was so weird! There was a silver lining though, girlie had some serious bad karma. In the 10 months we lived together her car was broken into and later died completely, her laptop was stolen from her office on campus, and she got dumped by a guy she was really into. Maybe she was just taking out her frustrations on me?

    Anyway your roommate sounds like a drama king so congrats on getting the hell out of there.

    he sounds like a power-tripping little twerp who has no control in his own life, and so he seeks it out in bullying/controlling others any way he can. what does he care if you're taking a shower in cold water? i liked how he just walked away so he wouldn't have to hear the reason, he just wanted to bitch. thank god you're moving out..i just HATE psycho roommates, after having a bad experience myself.

    ^^ He is and so is my landlord. Their lives honestly are so pathetic and empty. All they ever do is go to their crappy jobs, when they're home they watch TV for 6+ hours, then go to sleep. Even on their days off. They don't go out, and they don't have friends over. They are both broke, single, middle-aged- in fact, the reason my landlord had to start renting her house was b/c her bf of 5 years dumped her. No wonder they have nothing better to do than fuss at me.

    Well today I've been packing and I took the opportunity to do shitloads of laundry. I left to get dinner about an hour ago and came back to find he had moved his car to the driveway while I was gone. They have gone out of their way to be assholes to me, so I'm gonna have no trouble finishing up my laundry late, and possibly having to go out a couple times tonight. If they had just acted like normal people, I would be more considerate. I've been walking on eggshells for months, don't care anymore though!

    Remind them that you'll be out of the hair quicker if they don't do things which take up your time (the driveway)

    Ugh! So sorry you had to live in hell for as long as u did girlie :/ I HATE roommates!!!! I'm living w/ my bf & his parents now for about another week & it has been stressful as fuck. I'm sooo looking forward to living alone once i leave here. I'm just gonna live in a motel by the week so I don't have to deal with anybody else's BS. My advice would be to just avoid them completely until you're out of there. I did that w/ my last roomie. She was an older woman in her late 50's & she was a real bitch to me towards the end. She too started complaining that I was taking too long of hot showers & what not plus bitching at me bc I accidently clogged up the vacuum cleaner (even though she'd never once changed the bag). I'd totally just take a huge shit in the toilet on your way out the door before you leave for good LMAO since he likes to crumble up notes, tell him to crumble this :p

    ^^ Speaking of huge turds. True Story/ I lived on an island once and the staff accomodation was basically a blocks of rooms, so no privacy and everyone knew everyone's business. One staff member was fired and left a present underneath his bed for the staff cleaner to find..... mmmmm classy!
