I love my roommate
I'll try to make this as objective as possible. In fact, I'll change the names of the parties involved.
Bob and Jim are roommates. On Friday afternoon, Bob leaves for Miami for the weekend. On saturday morning, Jim opens the refrigerator door, and Bob's Brita filter falls out of its resting place in the refrigerator door and tumbles to the floor. The filter is plastic and the top cover piece is cracked. Bob comes home Monday and confronts Jim. Who should pay to replace the filter? |

Re: I love my roommate
Either:
Jim pays, end of story Bob pays, and shoves broken filter up Jim's ahole. Edit, also no one cares about the broken top? Damn, if you're going to be a nit, go all out. |

Re: I love my roommate
I thought this thread was going to be about the gay.

Re: I love my roommate
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. |

Re: I love my roommate
Clarifications
The filter was empty. Bob placed it on the shelf and was the sole user. Bob got home during the day Monday while Jim was at work, and confronted Jim soon after he walked in the door. For those voting Bob, why should he pay for a filter that Jim broke? For those voting Jim, how could he have prevented this, other than not use his own refrigerator? Stop calling people nits or trying to guess who's who. Come up with a reason. |

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. |
