-
(#1) The Thief
They don't know where it is and they don't know how it got in their room, but they definitely had nothing to do with hiding it in their secret drawer with the other stuff you thought went missing. But don't feel special, their sticky fingers have a big reach no matter where they go. Well, at least you both get a nice TV out of it. -
(#2) The Slob
If you haven't been able to see your bathroom sink for over a week and you live in daily fear of opening tupperware in your fridge that you didn't pack yourself, chances are you're living with a slob. Why pick up after themselves when they've got you around? -
(#3) The Snoop
Lock your doors and reset your passwords because this kind of roommate has no idea what privacy looks like. You're not quite sure what they get out of looking through your closets and reading your emails, but you're pretty sure they've got a bright future if Facebook is ever hiring. -
(#4) The I.O.U.
They'll get you the rent in a week or so, just spot them this time, and they'll even give you double that, honest! OK, maybe not in a couple weeks... also, can you buy the toilet paper again? They would have picked some up but they needed new headphones. What? It's for work. Get you next time, bro! -
(#5) The My Stereo Goes to 11!
If your roommate trips and falls in their room and nobody is home, do they make a sound? Nobody knows, because your roommate has been blasting the same wubwub dub step track so unfathomably loud that the entire apartment complex would probably ignore it even if they did. -
(#6) The 24 Hour Party Person
We all enjoy getting down every now and again, but this party animal brings it home so hard that you'd swear a stampede went through your living room. And forget about keeping some booze on hand for you. That got used for shots last week to celebrate surviving the fourth lifetime stomach pump (after that, the fifth one is free)! -
(#7) The Food Burglar
Remember that amazing dinner you had last night? The one that waiter/wizard turned into an incredible, aluminum foil-wrapped swan that's just waiting for you in your fridge? It's dead now. Well, it was probably dead before. But it's gone to another place now... your roommate's stomach. -
(#8) The Drama Magnet
Why can't you understand?! It's not their fault that they missed their shift at work. And that their car was towed after being in the red zone for only, like, a minute. And that their friend got them both arrested because they tried to steal a police horse. And that that horse is now in your yard eating your new vegetable garden. It's really, like, not their fault, OK? Don't be so judgmental! -
(#9) The Absentminded Pet Owner
Sure, you think rooming with a pet owner is going to be 24/7 tummy rubs and couch cuddling with their pet without all that pesky responsibility. But you'd hope SOMEBODY would be responsible for this needy creature and all the poop it makes! -
(#10) The Wait, When Did You Move In?
Nobody is sure how they got on the couch, but it's pretty clear where all the burritos in the freezer went. Couch surfers traveling in and out of town are one thing, but there comes a point in time when they should probably start paying rent. Or at least stock up the burritos. -
(#11) The Human Cling Wrap
Why get their own friends when they've got you in their life? By the way, what are you doing tonight? Because if you don't mind, they'd like to come with. Boundaries? What boundaries? Why put a wall around this friendship when it's only meant to grow together! -
(#12) The Loud Lovemaker
Honestly, you're happy that your roommate and their new "friend" are having a nice time, but do they have to have a nice time in DOLBY SURROUND SOUND? The walls aren't even paper thin, but you have such a good picture about their activities that you're practically having a threesome. -
(#13) The Human Bong
There's no part of "no smoking indoors" that they understand. You can either get used to living on the inside of a skunk's butt or you can get high enough to think that that joke was funny. -
(#14) The Exhibitionist
You know you pay rent, but did you know you also get free tickets to the wang show? It's not in the lease agreement that they can't let it all hang out, but it's not not in the agreement either. Better hope your leather couch is Scotchgarded... at least you hope that's a leather couch. -
(#15) The TV Hog
One of the wonders of modern technology is that you can both watch and play practically whatever you want, wherever you want from the comfort of your own laptop or phone. But sometimes you want to get out of your room and use the big TV in the common area for a movie night. Too bad your roommate is there, binge-watching the entire Netflix catalogue and adding more definition to their permanent butt indent on the couch. -
(#16) The Prankster
Who doesn't love waking up in a bed filled with soil and earthworms as your roommate cackles down the hall with their camera? Living with a roommate who loves to prank is like signing up to be a substitute teacher in a locked detention room for the rest of your lease. -
(#17) The PDA All Day
Your roommate finally found someone they really have a connection with. Hurray! But part of you really wishes they wouldn't connect all the time, in every part of your apartment, while you're still in the room. -
(#18) The I DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN MY ART TO YOU
You could use your freezer for about a half dozen frozen pizzas. OR, you could use it to house all of the dead animals you've found on the side of the road that you will use in your taxidermy... eventually. Living with an artist is great. Living with an ARTIST can get a little, messy. -
(#19) The Note Maker
If being passive aggressive was a sport, this person would not only be the MVP, they'd also be the bitchy cheerleader telling you how much you suck behind her pompoms. Sure, they could tell you their grievances to your face, but what would happen to the stock holders of Post-It if they ever acted like adults? -
(#20) The Mom
Poor little bird – you left the family nest to find your wings only to discover there's a whole new mama ready to sit on you. Odds are, this is a close friend who only wants what's best for you. But they should keep their beak out of it and let you make your own mistakes once in a while. -
(#21) The Hermit
Being a homebody can be a lot of fun, but when your roommate's body literally never leaves your home, it can feel claustrophobic. Your concern kind of falls between thinking they should get out more and wanting to walk around without your pants more. But either way, you're very sincere. -
(#22) The OCD Clean Freak
You may think you want this kind of roommate because you'd never have to worry about living in a messy apartment again. And you won't. But is that worth the constant fear of the lemon-scented totalitarian regime you've signed yourself up for? Sometimes people can be messy. And the next time you are, that's when they might, just, snap. -
(#23) The Silence
Oh, they're there. You can see their body. You can hear their breathing. Sometimes, you can even see a blur as they make for the bathroom. You're pretty sure if you lived with an actual ghost, they'd somehow talk to you more than this guy. Oh god, they're right behind you, aren't they? -
(#24) The One You're Kind Of Into
They're so funny, always there to talk you through your problems, and they smell really, really good coming home from the gym. It's totally OK if you guys sleep together once. You're just friends, so it won't mean anything, and you can totally maintain the relationship afterwards. Did you say relationship? You don't mean relationship-relationship. You know what? Forget you said anything. -
(#25) The Chef
If you're lucky, this Food Network obsessed gourmand isn't half bad and is maybe willing to share some chocolate lava cake they just whipped up on a whim. The more likely scenario? Well, it's probably a good idea to invest in both a dishwasher and a fire extinguisher, just in case.
