<p>I cannot STAND when people ** SCREAM ** in the dorms. I cannot fathom why someone would do it. All the drunk people like to hang out in the hall and they go in various rooms and open their doors and then they SCREAM. I usually go out there becauuse it’s 2PM on tuesday and they’re SCREAMING and tell them to shut the hell up but then they just scream more or start making monkey/bird noises right outside my door to **** me off. Then I bust out again and yell at them and they don’t listen to me and I threaten to tell the housefellow (i will proably never actually do it) and they call me a tattle tail and then go into their rooms and stop screaming but THEN they start BLASTING their Call of Duty and I’m trying to study so I get soooooooooooo mad and go bang on their door and yell “shut up shut up!!!” and they usually turn it off for 5 mins but then they are right back at it so I go knock on their door and tel them to stop and I open the door and theyre fooling around and screaming so I just walk away and get the hell out of the dorm.</p>

<p>Oh how I hate the dorms.</p>

<p>When your roommate’s alarm keeps going off but they don’t wake up for another two hours…</p>

<p>@HotIvy. I feel like you yelling so much makes them louder because they like to push your buttons.</p>

124

<p>^ probably true</p>

<p>Best thing to do when there’s a true problem like that in your dorm is usually just tell whoever is in charge.</p>

<p>Also, try to move next semester!</p>

125

<p>-people who believe that the only aim to college is academics, live in the library, and could care less about getting anything else out of the experience.<br>
-people who hate college or complain that it is “overrated” because they have very few social skills
-people who leave excessive amounts of hair (or trash, or puke) in the community bathrooms.
-people who act like they are holier-than-thou because they don’t drink and look down on others who do choose to partake.</p>

<p>In terms of the elevator, it does bother me immensely when someone takes the elevator down one floor. Up the stairs is one thing, if you are disabled or feeling really ill. But down the stairs? Give me a break. That is just completely unnecessary.</p>

126

<p>^Down the stairs is harder for me than up the stairs. My knees give out and I fall.</p>

127

<p>Lots of elevator/stair usage problems on this page? My dorm doesn’t even have an elevator. Isn’t that fun when you are moving in? :P</p>

<p>-when your roommate “gets busy” in your dorm and you really need something, but REALLY don’t want to see what’s happening in there…
-people who play music at 4 A.M. This isn’t turning on the radio, this is actual playing in a band in the dorm! I have morning classes! Grrr…
-People drunk and it’s not even night time…
-people who judge you for refusing to drink…I try to be as polite as I can. I’m not any better than you because I don’t drink, but you don’t have to treat me like I am weirdo.
-when people “borrow” your things and give them back to you in a terrible condition.
-people who smoke right outside the dorm. I especially hate that when I am about to go workout/run and I walk out only to inhale smoke that makes me cough like crazy.</p>

<p>Individuals who “reserve” seats at large tables in crowded dining halls by tipping up chairs and heading over to the food when my friends and I are trying to sit down together, plates in hand.</p>
