Katy Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 Get every thing out in the open Holly, you have to live there too. Don't go off on one but try and hold a 'meeting' and lay down some ground rules. Do a supernanny style rosta if you have to but don't let it fester away it's not good for ya.
Daggers Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 Maybe a "Duties" rota stuck to the fridge door with a comedy magnet?

Fez of Mahrez Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 I would take a picture of how f**ked my room is but I can't find my camera. I know it's here somewhere. Women. A rat or two never harmed anyone (possible historical factual error here, may have to look it up on Wikipedia and edit this statement). That's student life for you.
Collymore Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 ha ha ha, good thread. I only lived with females in my first year and there was always serious issues with keeping the place tidy. I think they just gave up in the end on us. If it was me, i would pretend that you saw the rat scurry across the kitchen floor when everyone's out, then bring it out as a communal joke, then say seriously guys, these things spread disease, I don't want a disease... this way it looks like you're pissed off with the rat more than them, should be easier to talk about it and find a solution. If they still do it, get there shit and chuck it out of the window, piss all over their beds and tell them if it happens again, there will be worse.
Katy Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 Supernanny style? Stez? He still doesn't know what you are on about. On the Supernanny prog she draws up rotas and things
Scarby Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 i lived with 2 lasses in my 3rd year and they were messy as hell! i did all the cleaning, washing etc for a year. i didnt say anything cos they were friends! i just got on with it, wish i had said something though! just ask them to wash up after them, cos why should you have to wash there pots up to cook and eat your grub.
gilesyboy Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 I remember those student days, my party trick was cleaning my rugby boots in the sink with dishes and generally leaving it for someone else, usually my impeccably clean gay housemate, to clean up if not for anything else then to see him fly into a camp rage - still makes me laugh thinking about it!
Daggers Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 When studying at Sunderland, I got free rent and a free telephone for "looking after" students in rented accomodation in my area. All I had to do was go to see them for a chat if they had a little problem. Cushy number huh? No! I learned many things on that degree - the biggest one was that students are selfish, lazy, whinging tossers.

You cannot just take the good and reject the bad (well, I suppose you can try, good luck )
Thracian Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 People mate. They're great - but it's always nice to shut the door. Unless you love em - then make sure they're on the inside.
cisono Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 People mate. They're great - but it's always nice to shut the door. Unless you love em - then make sure they're on the inside. What do you do if the person annoying you is your brother? If he turned up on your doorstep two weeks ago and still shows no signs of leaving?
Collymore Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 What do you do if the person annoying you is your brother? If he turned up on your doorstep two weeks ago and still shows no signs of leaving? Piss on their beds until they get the message, it's the answer to everything
Wils Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 What do you do if the person annoying you is your brother? If he turned up on your doorstep two weeks ago and still shows no signs of leaving? Put his clothes in black bin liners and tell him to sling his hook? Or ask him how many potatoes he wants with his dinner.

Milky Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 or you could pull the old phantom shitter routine i must be one of the lucky ones then, cus our house is usually reasonably tidy.
cisono Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 Piss on their beds until they get the message, it's the answer to everything Not such a great idea, in this case... "His" bed is actually mine
Collymore Posted 2 November 2006 Posted 2 November 2006 Not such a great idea, in this case... "His" bed is actually mine you kind person.
