Re: I love my roommate
[ QUOTE ]
Rather than letting Bob discover that something of his was broken with no warning, Jim should immediately tell Bob it was broken, and offer to replace it. Bob should then say to Jim, "no way, don't worry about it" (perhaps tacking on a "bro" if Bob talks that way).
Jim and Bob should break out a couple of beers and watch a ballgame. Beer>>>water anyway. If Jim goes to the store before Bob does, he should pick up a filter.
Nothing in this interaction went as it should have.

See my clarifications. Jim's only chance to bring it up with Bob would be to have called him or left a note, which I think everyone can agree is kind of absurd given that it's a $30 filter, not an expensive TV or something.
