Today, my roommate who stays out til 4 or 5 in the morning each night got her key to the dorm fixed. I've been having to stay up nightly to let her in (my normal bedtime being 12:00) How'd they fix it? Turns out it was never broken she was just putting the key in the slot wrong. FML

...appropriate for someone whose nick is "assdan." |the kid|

Come on is she that dumb? Did she also sell her car for gas money?

If she can't operate a key I'm thinking higher education may be a waste of money. Marry well child, marry well.

Why didn't you use her incompetence with a key as your excuse to stay out and party with her? If she's so dumb she can't operate a lock, I'm sure guys are telling her all kinds of crap about slots and insertions. Maybe you can get one of her leftovers, or a guy who'll settle for you.

You know....you aren't obligated to go along with every stupid, inconvenient idea your roomie pitches to you. Just say "Sorry. That's not going to work for me. You'll have to make other arrangements."

I'm surprised more people didn't vote YDI. WHY on EARTH would you tolerate that? Your roommate should be more respectful than to expect you to change your lifestyle to put up with her. YOU should have had the balls to put her in her place and say, "No, I will not stay up 5 hours later than usual just because you can't be home at a reasonable hour."

As so many people have said, you should have put your foot down and told her that she either has to get her key fixed, get back at a reasonable hour or sleep somewhere else. However, I can understand why you didn't do any of these if you didn't to avoid confrontation. Things can get awkward and nasty if you fall out with your roommate. Which is why you do it in a mature way and if she can't take it, just stay strong and make sure she can't prank you into oblivion if she goes psycho.
