HousematesCatch21 says "I go out of my way to make life hell for my shitty middle-class housemates who go running to the landlord every time I break wind". Weird housemates are the gift that keep on giving - tell us about yours.

Door Thievin'First year, Richardson Road, Newcastle University. Living in a 6-man flat, where each room came with it's very own heavy-set, Yale-latch door.
Halfway through the year we discovered that the doors weren't screwed on in the traditional sense, and could in fact be lifted off their hinges. Two men could do this quite easily, and we had a few days "fun" round the flat exploiting this trick. Then we decided to band together for the good of all mankind, and use our new-found knowledge to annoy the girls in the flat above us.
Rob, by far the least mischievous of us, was the bait (A fact he was ignorant of). We found the right moment - most of the girls were out of the flat, most of their doors hadn't been locked (as usual), and Rob had just trundled up the stairs to watch a DVD with Ana & Cesca.
A quick, discrete text to Rob, and we were in the flat. Ten minutes later, and 3 out of 6 room doors were safely secured inside Rob's room.
It turns out that when girls get back from a night out they like being able to close their door. They get really, really angry when they can't. Girls like to have doors.

stealing doorsnice trick. Possibly would have been better if you'd swapped all the doors around - that way it'd look the same when they got back but none of their keys would work in 'their' doors... confuse the fuck out of 'em I'd bet...
