Today, I came back to my apartment to see that my roommate had left out bread, deli meat, and cheese on the counter, and made myself a sandwich. When she came back, she informs me that she found bugs in the fridge and took out all the food she thought would be contaminated. FML

Today, I came back to my dorm to find my roommate forgot to get rid of her massive amounts of cheese before break. She did, however, remember to unplug the refrigerator. FML

Eight hour window

By fishyrael - 12/07/2022 00:00 - United States - East Lansing

Today, I got home an hour late from to find that my roommate had left the fridge open for the entire 8 hours. The kicker is that I was an hour late because I was at the grocery store, not buying the things that were getting ruined because I thought we had some. FML

Today, to keep me from "getting fatter", my roommate raided the kitchen. She ate everything from cookies and ice cream to deli meat. The only thing left in the house are vegetables. FML

Today, after I cleaned out the fridge of things that expired months ago, my roommate got angry and insisted upon pulling all the moldy dairy products out of the garbage and putting them back because "they weren't mine and I shouldn't throw out other people's food." FML

Today, surprisingly, my roommate made a nice meal. Within an hour, I started throwing up. When I confronted her, she confessed that she'd used long expired ingredients, including meat, because she didn't want the garbage men to think she's "the type that wastes food." FML

Thanks for the heads up

Today, I grabbed a handful of crackers from the kitchen, only to find it crawling with bugs. Apparently, my brother had made the same discovery earlier, but put the box of crackers back in the cupboard anyway. FML

Today, I came back to my apartment after moving most of my stuff out. Upon returning, I learned that my now ex-roommate drank all of my alcohol and threw away my things, thinking that I had forgotten them. FML

Roommates from Hell

By Snoodist - 06/05/2019 20:00

Today, as usual, I got home to find that my roommate had eaten all my groceries and left a mess behind for me to clean. To be fair, this time she did some cleaning - she "energy cleansed" my room with a sage wand, burning a huge hole in my mattress in the process. FML

Today, my roommate was packing up her kitchen stuff as she prepared to move out. Apparently that included the majority of things I bought last week to replace all of her stuff she is taking. FML

Today, my roommate of a year and good friend of several more decided to move out. When I came home from a long work shift, I found all the cupboards emptied out of everything, including all the new stuff I bought to replace what she was going to take with her. FML

That's disgusting. And I don't understand in anyway why there's such a large amount of "you deserved that one" votes, your roommate should have thrown the food out.

I mean, she should have thrown out the food, but why would you make yourself a sandwich with food that's clearly not yours? For all you knew SHE was planning to make a sandwich with it. I think that was pretty rude.

I can't believe no one has mentioned this yet: how would bugs survive in the fridge? Moisture, maybe, but actual bugs? This is so, so fake.

Jenny's half-right. The bugs would survive in the fridge, but they wouldn't be moving around. About 10 seconds after getting in the door, they would slow to a crawl and after about 10 more seconds they would be immobile. Insects need heat to move around, which is why you see so few of them in the winter. However, many of them can be frozen solid in your freezer and later be thawed out and completely fine. Try it.

#8 I assume you aren't the "brightest bulb on the tree" either, seeing as how trees don't have bulbs.

1) Why would you eat food that may have been out for a while and may have spoiled? 2) Your roommate is an idiot for leaving food out and not telling you anything -sounds unlikely 3) Did you see the bugs?

Also, the expression, "not the brightest bulb on the tree" is an expresson like "not the sharpest knife in the cabinet" or "not the sharpest tool in the shed." Your obviously not "the brightest bulb on the tree" if you've never heard that expression. I've heard that expression and I'm 12.

#8 and #37, #35 wins. Trees do not have bulbs, but tools are in sheds, and knives can be in cabinets. Last time I checked trees didn't have electricity. Now that the flaming is done with, FYL, because usually people would assume that because the food is out, somebody had just taken it out. Also, to whoever said it was rude to make the sandwich, wtf? It's called a shared fridge, and just because the OP didn't take it out of the fridge doesn't mean they didn't have a right to it. I'm bored.
