Roommate eating my food... using my soap

[Think]

So I've got this roommate who is a pretty big prick. He has treated myself along with my other roommate like shit pretty much the entire semester and doesn't really seem to care. He has admitted to eating some of my food in the beginning of the semester but I constantly notice more food missing and I know my other roommate isn't doing it because we hang out most of the time and when he wants some of my food, he asks.

Not only that, but I'm pretty sure he's been using my soap also. Everytime I go in the shower, there is less and less of my soap, and a lot of the time there are pubes on my soap... and I know they're not mine.

Anyways, so I've confronted him about both things, and he just gets SUPER defensive and starts to yell at me about it. My mom suggested putting exlax in some of my food, but I'm not sure if she was joking about it. I'd like some ideas on how to get him to stop before I end up killing him.

[Devaclis]

Confront him. Do it around other people.

It doesn't sound like the kind of thing that would ever settle down or blow over so IMO, it's time to serve that prick with his 30 day vacate notice. If he's too much of an asshole to even discuss issues that he's creating with any maturity, you'll never be able to relax after a confrontation. You'll never know what's in the coffee, the cereal, the butter tub, etc.etc.. Get rid of the pest and gain your peace of mind.

I had the same prob a while ago. I confronted him in front of the household (4 of us total), it turned into an everyone bitching at him for the crap he did. Seemed more like a mugging than a chat.

I started keeping all my food in boxes in my room unless it had to be in the fridge. I started keeping all my shower stuff in my room as well. Toilet paper, everything. i never saw him take TP to the crapper when he went it, and I presume he crapped eventually.

Gotta say, I like your mom's idea. Find what he is consuming and taint it. Just not too much, don't want to kill the guy.

He eventually dropped out of school and moved out, but that was because his folks stopped sending him money.

Speaking of fail.....

[jimwallace]

LISTEN TO YOU'RE MOM!!!!!!!

[jimwallace]

oh yeah and put nair on your soap.

[salsashark]

butter the floor...



OK, in all seriousness though... lock your stuff up... this cat obviously doesn't see anything wrong with what he's doing so it's not going to stop.

[Sully]

Make brownies with Exlax... and put a big sign on them, DO NOT EAT... guarantee the A$$hole will eat them ! Then remove all the TP in the bathroom !

Totally gross on him using your soap, get a new bar and give him the old pubed out one ! Or buy some of the prankster soap that will make him turn blue or something ! Act like you live in a dorm and keep your stuff in your room if it's really bothering you.

I hate it when it gets like that, I've definitely been there before, if I was you I'd ask him with your other roommate to find another place to live over christmas break and pick up a new roommate for second semester.

you'll have to bring your soap into the shower with you and keep it in your room, I've had to do that with the tp before too, it's not very fun.

As far as the food goes I don't know what to tell you, the tainting thing is good, but if he's that defensive then I wouldn't know what to do... I'd just tell him it's not working out and he should find another place to live for the next semester.

[PROFLYER]

I'll whip his ass for ya.

Roommates suck bro, I don't miss them for a second. Confront him about it with the other ones around. Tell him if it doesn't stop he'll need to find another place to live once the lease is up.

PM me if you wanna find a new place, I have a rental property that may open up soon with 2 bedrooms 2.5 baths and a 2 car attached garage. 1000 a month, no mowing or shoveling, it's a town house.

[Doron&Katie]

Kill him!

[asp_125]

Post up the house rules on the fridge.. maybe he'll get the idea.. and then again, maybe not.

[MetaLord 9]

make him sign a contract saying that if he doesn't put the brakes on being such a phenominal duesch bag then you've got the right to remove him from the lease & send him on his merry effing way.

[Big-J]

A belting across the mouth always works, seriously.

[DFab]

Roll him up in a carpet and throw him off a bridge. Or maybe you could switch to liquid soap, and if he starts using it, add some sort of dye. Read some Hayduke revenge books.

Seriously though, if he's not on the lease you should be able to get rid of him pretty easy. If he is, read the lease to see if there's anything 'legitimate' you can do...

[rforsythe]

Leave pubes in some of the food. He'll get the point.

[PhL0aTeR]

Piss on his bed.....

[MetaLord 9]

superglue gay porn all over his things. Especially his bed. For stealing your food & pubing your soap he should have to sleep on dudes blow'n dudes every night.

I would have a conversation with your roommates once you have calmed down.

Write down the conversation topics/concerns so the two, (or more) of you can be respectful of each others time. Set the rules for the conversation and seek a mutual approval of the rules before starting the conversation.
Depending on how a question is phrased, creates the reaction. (Laws of Physics)

Example conversation rule: Do your best to avoid compound questions and/or interrupting the other.

Use tact to communicate with others during frustrating moments. We can be kind, right?

Piss on his bed.....

Then tell him it rained in his room.

[zetaetatheta]

arsenic in very small doses, start using liquid soap and put a dibilitory in it. (here today and gone tomorrow with one and hair today and gone tomorrow with the other)

[SaShWhO]

a, go some place to eat together, order a $20 plate, drinks etc, then tell him you only got 10 bucks.
b, put hotsauce and/or zippo fluid on your soap!!!.
c, rub your balls on the food items he seems to enjoy the most and frequently steals from you!
