<p>I'm just wondering what are all of your biggest fears in regards to getting roommates. What would be your worst case scenario? List yours here, in hopes that this will not be the case (or share your terrible roommate story).</p>
<p>mine: a roommate that smokes all the time and doesn't care that I have asthma and will wheeze like a mofo (constant hard drug use is a big no-no for me also), and one that is extremely promiscuous and brings in sleazy guys into the dorm constantly. On the other side of the spectrum, I'm hoping I can avoid an extremely religious health nut who despises warm weather and likes to study for fun.</p>
<p>I'd hate to have someone who was against my smoking and drug use, and who was too prude and never was down for my sleaze. Although, I'd hate if they weren't as religious as me, and didn't share my love of the winter months.</p>
<p>But that'd all be remediated if they were a smoking hot alaska chick</p>
<p>promiscuity? can deal with that. drunken parties on weekdays? definitely not a problem. i was terrified i'd end up with a crazy christian fanatic who put jesus all over the walls and would frequently "tsk" at me and suggest bible verses that JUST MIGHT save me..</p>
<p>Someone with a toxic personality. You know the type: the one who somehow seems to bring every situation down and always seems to be in a bad mood. They can't just live and let live; they have to judge everything anybody does. They don't end up with very many friends, but they do make a lot of enemies.</p>
<p>That would be the worst for me. Different lifestyles I could probably handle, but a toxic personality would drive me crazy.</p>
<p>Well since i'm going to a private jesuit college, i was really scared to get the bible thumping extremist. Also, i am not to worried about the drugs, cause most of my school is going to be bible thumping extremist... so. meh. I am really worried about promiscuous people, not because i think it's wrong, but like the radio says... "The gonorhea rate in Douglas county (Omaha, NE) are 50 percent higher than the national average" :( poor hoochies, they're going to have some funk down under.</p>
<p>Seriously tho, it's a reasonable fear. I am a straight male and having a non-straight male roommate simple would make me feel very uncomfortable doing a lot of things, including sleeping.</p>

<p>You know what they say, if your roommate rapes you, you get all A's</p>
<p>I would hate to be roomed with a fat, annoying, ugly person who would make me vomit everytime I look at him. A roommate that snores is just as bad too. I wouldn't want a lame & embarrasing roommate or a roommate that ends up getting attracted to you. That will be extremely uncomfortable.</p>
<p>"Harlot! Abandon your wanton whorish ways and embrace thy lord!"</p>
<p>Easy, you user name says alot....Trust me....."EASY" tsk tsk tsk.</p>
<p>A fugly girl. All the issues of a gay roommate in trying not to get sexed up, plus your food would disappear and you'd constantly be subject to an extra source of gravitational pull.</p>
