Here we have a terrible roommate who is doubling down on his reasons for pilfering from the person he lives with.

When you get caught in a lie, you have a few choices. You can own up to what you did, or keep lying, or deny it all. In this person's hilarious tale about their roommate, this person doubled down on their lie about food they were going to eat.

U/DeadShipsDwell wrote to r/badroommates with a tale to share. They wrote that they share a deep freezer with their roomie in a garage, which works great for the OP, who eats a lot of steak and other meats. The OP writes that one day, they were running low on steak and planned to thaw out one of the last ones to eat. When they got to their house, their roommate had taken out two pieces of meat, so the OP thanked him. But then, the OP learned that their roommate wasn't being proactive about dinner for the OP — instead, the roommate decided these steaks were his now.
