Follow up to PITTM\'s roommate problem thread
 

Situation:

You share an apartment/house/whatever with one roommate. You are not good friends and did not know each other prior to living together; this is probably the case for a lot of the younger college kids here.

You each have stuff in a communal fridge and cabinets. Everything is of moderately low value, some examples of such items include, but are not limited to: milk, ketchup, leftover pizza, eggs, peanut butter, bread, popcorn, etc. Basically, I want to be clear that I'm not referring to something like a steak or lobster that costs a lot of money.

Your roommate eats something of yours without asking. Assume that this is not the "last" of it, i.e. finishing a catron of milk or eating the only remaining egg in teh fridge. Also assume that this is not a chronic "problem", your roommate does not just wait for you to buy food and then eat it, they just happened to want something that you had in there.

How do you feel about this?

If you vote "not okay" in this poll I think you're effing retarded and shouldn't be allowed to live with people.

Once my roommate ate my schnitzel. With karate I kicked his ass.

I should clarify, you're really only retarded if you think it's okay for you to live with people. Otherwise you're just weird.

If something like this just happens once/or on occasion, I don't care at all, but I can see why people might worry the first time it happens that it might become a problem in the future.

Evan,

my point is, life is too short to get all up in arms over something this insignificant.

I've had plenty of roommates, and we've done stuff like this many times. It really isn't a big deal. It all evens out in the end.
