Today, my new roommate took a shower. This would be a good thing, except for the fact that it's apparently taken her two months just to take this one. I have to live with her for another year. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my roommate confided in me that she hadn't been taking showers while at school because she was afraid of being in the shower when the fire alarm goes off. She goes home once every month, and will only shower there. I have to live with her for the rest of the year. FML
Today, while watching TV in my dorm, I clearly heard my roommate yell to someone proudly, "I've only taken a shower 4 or 5 times since I've been here." He's been my roommate for four months. FML
Today, I discovered that I have to share a room with my new stepbrother. I also discovered that he takes the same number of showers over the course of two weeks as I do in a single day: one. FML
Today, my new roommate puked into the sink and all over the bathroom floor, before passing out on her bed. Apparently, she was awake enough to wash her own face but not clean up her vomit. We share the bathroom. This is the second time already. FML
Today, I came back from break to find that my roommate had been shitting in the bathtub for the entire 2 weeks I had been gone. FML
Today, my new roommate moved in. It seems that instead of using toilet paper like a normal human being, she instead opts to use the nearest towel in reach. I found this out when I went to dry off with mine after a shower. FML
Today, I woke up to my step-mother taking a shower in my bathroom. Of course, this would be fine, if my bathroom wasn't connected to my room and closet, or that I live in an apartment in their back yard, built before she moved in. FML
Today, my roommate decided to go on a group trip instead of paying our water bill. Now I can't shower until next week. FML
Today, I realized that my flatmate showers so little that the furniture she uses smells like BO. FML
Today, I realized that my roommate has been using my loofah to clean our toilet. I've been cleaning myself with the shit of four college boys for the last six months. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Sorry, OP. That stinks.

Tell her she needs to shower more. Otherwise you're going to start spilling buckets of water and soap on her every morning.

I doubt one of the questions ppl ask a potential roommate is whether or not they actually shower on a regular basis...

Sometimes college freshmen have no choice. They are assigned by the school. It is thought to enrich their college experience; being exposed to people you would not normally choose.

Sounds like my college roommate from freshman year. I am so sorry. You'll get through it.

Oh god, reading this made my skin crawl. I'm a bit of a clean freak body wise. I have a shower in the morning and bath at night. The longest I ever went without was a trip to gaelteacht ( irish community in Kerry) and they had no running water, a week with no shower just dips in lakes. Worst week of my life!!

Get a male roommate. He'll take 4-7 showers a day, so that will maximize your shower usage. They tend to spill "conditioner" on the floor and the walls -- don't use it in your hair ;)
