Exactly, couldn’t give two fucks really, but what on earth’s going on in their head??!

Smoking inside (don’t usually notice much as the living room is big enough that we’re usually spread out. but when they have people round, and everyone is smoking, it’s a bit annoying. if i die of lung cancer i’m gonna be so pissed off)

Putting a wash on and then just leaving the the clothes in the washing machine for ages after (admittedly i do this sometimes but usually because the drying rack is full. if it’s out of laziness i don’t leave them too long, or go out for the day/night without taking them out)

Keeping food in pans/bowls for ages (there’s a glass cooking dish in the kitchen that’s been there for months now with some old food that went blue and now black. seems uncharacteristic of my housemate and i don’t get why she’s never chucked it out. it’s sealed closed with a lid so not really a hygiene issue but i should probably just dump it soon)

Having dates round to hang out in the living room (doesn’t happen too often but feels a bit awkward)

not washing stuff before putting it in the recycling/putting recyclable stuff in the bin

leaving lights on is a bit of an annoying one as well

biggest gripe is still ‘Signing us up to Couchsurfing without discussing it first’

otherwise get on pretty well

this pretty much happened to me. Get random groups of eastern Europeans staying for week long periods. great bunch of lads, but its really fucking irritating.

You sound like an absolute nightmare :wink:

Regularly takes stuff out of one fridge to use, but puts it back in the other one.

not drinking the dregs of tea/last bit of juice.

MEANING I END UP THROWING IT ON THE CARPET!!!

EVERY FUCKING TIME!!"!!! FUCKKKKKK!!!*

*yes, I realise it is entirely my own fault for not learning this after 11 years, but still. FUCCCCCKKKKKK

I don’t understand how my girlfriend doesn’t have a bald head, given the amount of her hair that ends up EVERYWHERE.

It’s just baffling.

Used to live with a very good friend who is also incredibly bad at washing up. Just ended up splitting it so I always did the washing up and she did some other jobs I hate and she doesn’t mind like taking the bin out, so I could enjoy the clean plate life.

Washing up while cooking is absolute madness

Nah. If you get the chance - say if you’re waiting for something to simmer down or slowly browning some onions or doing something that requires no action then get that sink filled up and do the first tranche of washing up.

It’s madness NOT to.

I mean you can’t always do it. Say if you’re rustling up an omelette you’re gonna be all hands on deck until it’s done. Be suicide to ditch that half way to wash up.

But yeah also say if you’re doing something in the oven. 20 minutes on 200. Absolutely perfect window to blitz the lot and get it in the drainer in time for serving. And you can chow down knowing that when done all you’ve got to wash up is a couple of plates and possibly a heavy soak of a baking tray.

Some of you people are fucking crackers.
