Manky international studentLast year was my first at uni, I got put in a flat with 3 other guys. Two of them I get on really well with, the other guy was from Kenya, his name was Gideon.
To begin with, we would get pissed off that him and his cousin would come back at 4am or other antisocial times, and then put music on as loud as their stereo would go.
Then it moved on to his cousin just coming in and using his room, even if he wasn't there. I went away for a weekend and came back to find my stereo had gone from the kitchen. It was in his room.
We went away for Easter holidays, came back and the majority of the food in the freezer had gone.
But the worst bit would be that he fucking stank. You had to hold your breath to walk past his closed door. He even stank AFTER he came out of the bath. And he left the bath in the biggest mess ever, it was covered in filth all over, and you had to wash it after every time he had been in it.
The housekeeper, when she came to inspect the flat, wouldn't even go in the room it smelt that bad.
We got a sort of revenge, my mate punched a big dent in my door. We blamed it on Gideon. Haha.
And now this year, we have another stinky flatmate, however he makes us laugh, sitting at his computer all day, playing Counter-Strike, occasionaly hearing expletives emerging from his room.
