I have definitely noticed that people who talk about how clean they are definitely aren't. Just like when people talk about how smart they are.

I’m a bit suspicious of any claim a person makes about themselves.

Or their kids, usually.

I’ve met too many “gifted” kids for that term to have any meaning

I'm the smartest most beautiful strongest funniest alwaysgotareplyonthetipofmytongue perfect person to ever person on this universe.

My only flaw is how modest I am.

I am SO hesitant to use that term, it's too loaded. Mine is above grade level in all subjects (in kindergarten lol) but I prefer to describe her as an energetic drama queen. Which really applies to both kids.

my kid was supposed to roll months ago but he just sits. when i pick him up in daycare he's just sitting there while all the other babies crawl in circles around him.

Fear not, before long you won't be able to catch him

I was friends with one of them and mild acquaintances with the other two while moving in. The one that I knew better moved out, and was replaced with another acquaintance.

The one that sucks is good at presenting himself differently from how he actually is. He seems like he has his life together, is charismatic and funny, talks himself up, etc. Going in, he was talking about how clean he is and shit. He turns out to be the messiest person and I'm always picking up after him. He tells me this thing about how he used to be an alcoholic and overcame it. He's still an alcoholic. He needs to get drunk every night.

Pretty much, paying rent is our collective responsibility, so even if one guy fucks up, can't really just go to the landlord and say "well it's his fault," because we're all collectively on the hook for it, anyway. It's not like the landlord will just say "that's all right; I'll accept 3/4 of the rent and only pester the freeloader for his share."

Replacing him would take a lot of effort for the few months we've got left. And that's a few months where we all have to pay more rent. I mean, yeah, I'm already paying more rent, but in previous times where he went months without paying rent, he's eventually paid it back. If he's not a tenant, then there's no one to eventually pay back the extra rent I'm paying for those months.

His name is on the lease as an occupant rather than a tenant. He used to be one of the tenants, but when we renewed the lease, I thought it better to pick a roommate who can stably hold a job as the co-tenant for the credit check (maybe that was stupid of me).

well all the roommates are paying the extra rent yes?

if you're just loaning him the full share of his rent indefinitely...idk, that was a poor decision

either way sorry you're dealing with that

Ive been renting rooms in other folks house since I moved out and Id recommend it honestly

the homeowner is typically on the hook for utilities and for the extra cost of a delinquent roommate

the drawback is ofc that the homeowner sets the rules, however, I've found that because they have a mortgage and you don't, you have a decent amount of bargaining power

I've done that a few times and didn't enjoy the experience, but the home owner was also still living there. It would probably be nicer to just rent a place that has tenants only.

i have to move too, in 5 months

it sucks shit and I want to die

I need to stop moving to places that later become very popular so they won't JACK MY FUCKING RENT UP 400 FUCKING DOLLARS

fried eggs and country ham

I should be moving in August...this houses closes in less than a month, then we gotta rent it back until our tiny new house is complete. So ready to be back on the other coast.

netphoria house coming soon

A total cringefest, too

I feel like no one would be the first person to talk and more than half of us would be wearing a Zero shirt

there'd be a ZOMBIE wing and a SYCOPHANT wing

also a COUGARED section

Pretty sure I would start talking straight away and then the ice would be broken and everyone would talk to each other and I’d just be left standing on my own awkwardly looking around
