Nothing worse than the average house-share experience (apart from a video cassette launched at my head)
But I'm just so much happier since I took a second job and kept the flat to myself.
I love my best mate but I couldn't live with her for too long. And some people seem really keen to have you as a surrogate relative/partner just because you live in the same house.
I prefer dancing round in my trolleys to checking cleaning rotas. I hope I never have to go back.

Yeah
Can't say I ever had a particularly bad experience with my housemates, they were all kinds of lovely, but there's nothing quite like dropping trough and curling one out as soon as you get through the door

Nobody to judge you...
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Mon 16 Nov 2009, 16:01, Reply)

I love living on my own too
That feeling of locking the door when you get in is great, and going to bed knowing that nobody is going to stumble in drunk, turn the tv on, start cooking...

I never want to share EVER again.

Buried
In March.
She'll be useless by now.

Not true
they put all sorts in there to keep 'em fresh for years, just in case they need to exhume the body. Where's she buried? I may need to pay the saucy old tart a visit

Thankfully I have never had to flatshare, I have heard scary things and I have a book called 'I lick my cheese' which is a book of notes made by people who have flatshared - its very funny! :)

My uncle used to lick each of his roast potatoes to prevent Grange Hill banger-style theft at the table.

That has tickled me that has...

Hehehe I used to do the same thing
so my brother didn't steal off my dinner plate. I don't care who you are, its never appropriate to take food off someone elses plate! IF YOU WANTED CHIPS YOU SHOULD HAVE BLOODY BROUGHT THEM!!

The book is rather funny - a good stocking filler! :)

Meh
Its annoying. I like bad food but my stupid dieting friends always want what they're not allowed... 'Oh I'm on my points so I shouldn't'.

I don't understand the point in having these mystical 'food points'... does it not count if the food is stolen from someone else’s plate?

Anyone taking from my plate is liable to get a forking
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Mon 16 Nov 2009, 16:41, Reply)

that is how most women's minds work
if they are just pinching one or two then it doesn't count. similarly crumbs (as from a cake) don't count.

fortunately when my other half decided to lose some weight via weightwatchers she got stuck in and lost like 3 stone in a short space of time, rather than dithering and scoffing stuff when she shouldn't.

That's the thing. If you're going to do it, great, crack on, but do it properly or what's the sodding point.
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Mon 16 Nov 2009, 16:46, Reply)

exactly
it was quite amusing, neither of us really noticed that we'd both been packing some extra weight until we saw some photos from my brother's wedding.

we were like "christ, when did we become fat fuckers?" (in my case I added the word again to the end) and set about it.

piece of piss.

Hehe
It is one of those things that creeps up on you. Thankfully I tend to notice if I put on even a tiny bit of weight and I can sort it out relatively easily. One day my body will decide to punish me for the misuse though... then I'll become a fat fucker!

it has nothing to do with their low IQs, or the fact that it's mostly for geeks with superiority complexes who can't get girlfriends

The internet stopped being for geeks about the time AOL was popular.

S'alright though, I figure I'm a geek girl with a shopping addiction. Most of my girly friends think I'm a bit odd and that I know too much about films, weird music and comics... surely that’s the definition of a geek?
