    Font - whateverphil · 1d 1 Award He took the stale remnants of an old bag of Doritos and poured them into a fresh bag of Doritos. The result was about 1 in 10 of the chips were stale. Not enough to make me abandon the new bag, but enough to taint the experience. "Why are only some of these chips stale?" | wondered, before realizing his trick. It's such a subtle prank, l'm kind of awed by it. 6 Reply 1 261 ...

    Font - sypho_galia · 1d He keeps breeding mold in the fridge and lets the stuff in there. He does not seem to bother that much. And when I came into the Apartment after being somewhere else for some weeks I wanted to cook dinner. Guess what I found in my cooking pot that was stored in my cupboard? The rest of some food happily molding in my pot that he must have used, not cleaned up and put in the cupboard. Why does somebody not know how to clean a cooking pot after they've had a meal?

    Font - Vero518 · 21h We didn't discover this until he moved out, but apparently he had been smoking cigarettes in his closet and ashing onto the shelf that runs along the top of it. This guy already stepped outside like 10 times a day to smoke and would often smoke two cigarettes in a row when he did so. T have never known another smoker who smoked so much, and my husband used to tell me to have more sympathy for this guy coughing at all hours and keeping me awake. It's his asthma! He can't help

    Font - Fabulous_Alpaka · 1d On mondays, I had courses from 8am-10pm without time for a lunch break. Every sunday, I would cook a meal for monday evening to eat and then go to bed immediately. One monday night, I came home and my fridge was empty. And I mean, there's nothing left. Even my Tupperware was gone. I went to bed hungry because I was too tired to even make a bowl with cereals.
