This is a question Housemates

Catch21 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.

A tenderly roasted petit pois for le compo
Back at uni in Hatfield, I ended up living in a shared house with some mates from 1st year. It was a blinding house, made even better that the house next door was rented by 4 other mates from 1st year. By removing the fence in between the two gardens, we created one massive garden suitable for barbecues, drinking, silly games, drinking, attacking each other with BB guns, drinking and er...drinking. It was fucking brilliant.

Anyway, this story concentrates on one of my housemates, Mark. I am unsure how it started, but we got involved in a practical joke war. Always bad, especially when Mark was an equally inventive bastard as I was. Highlights included him bursting a baloon filled with pepper over my head when I was asleep (imaginitive, I give him that)and me finding his spare keys and moving his car around the corner so that he thought it had been nicked. After his latest effort of putting blue food dye in my shampoo (made me look like a fucking smurf) I decided to exact terrible revenge. I got every single alarm clock in the house, and set them to 20 minute intervals and hid them around his bedroom. The first alarm, however, was his radio. Now Mark is a bit of a music fan and had a fairly powerful speaker system which I noticed he never turned up above quarter volume (even that was enough to melt earwax). So, I set his music system to radio mode, tuned the FM dial to static noise, and turned it off, setting the volume to full.

As it happens, I was on a night shift the next day, so I was able to stay up until 3am when my master plan came into play. I could hear the static quite clearly through a 10 inch brick wall at normal conversation volume, followed by Mark's muffled screaming. After he turned it off and (I imagine) went back to sleep, the first alarm went off. This contined every half hour until 6am!

I was nearly murdered the next morning.

hah!
I once set my alarm for 5am and hit it under my brother's bed. He rewarded me by dumping a jugful of iced water over me, as I lay in bed giggling and pretending to be asleep.

Actually
the blue food dye in the shampoo has impressed me most. That's inspired.
