Living with a bad roommate is a surprise; you wouldn’t agree to it if you knew. They gradually reveal messy or gross habits, and by then, it’s often too late.
Many have faced nightmare roommates, making it a shared experience. Some had crazy habits like leaving their dirty dishes in the sink or leaving the stove burner on all night. It’s like a rite of passage, preparing us for living with a spouse.
Check out these roommates and see if any of them can match the level of badness of yours.
