Today, my roommate played a crazy April Fool's joke on me by not paying his rent this month. Good one. FML

Roommate from hell #457
Today, my roommate and I were watching TV, and he ordered a pizza. After it was delivered, I took a slice. He yelled at me for taking his food and told me to stop mooching off him. I had to cover his rent last month and he still hasn't paid me back. FML

He's a very naughty boy
Today, I found out that my roommate is starting a religion in which he doesn't believe in humanly things, such as paying rent. FML

Priorities
Today, my roommate and I received a non-payment notice from our landlord, over a dishonored check that was used to pay the rent. I give my roommate money for my share and she handles the checks. Apparently, her trip to Puerto Rico was more important than paying rent. FML

Get back here!
Today, I texted my flatmate to ask him when he would be paying his portion of the rent, since he has told me he would be late this month. He wrote back to inform me that he had moved out last night while I was away, and that he won't be paying me anything. FML

Today, my roommate wants to kick me out because I can't afford to pay my share of the rent this month. I couldn't afford to, because I had to pay for repairs to my car after my roommate got drunk, stole my keys, and crashed it into a street light. FML

Emotional lift
Today, I finally got my paycheck that I could enjoy $300 for myself after taking care of my bills with so many other ones. Then, I find out that the water was shut off, which is supposed to be my roommate's responsibility. Apparently, he has not paid it in months, and they want $288. FML

And now, on Judge Judy
Today, I found out my roommates spent my rent money and told the landlord I never paid. I've paid my rent and theirs the past six months. My name's on the lease. FML

Today, my roommate admitted he spent his half of the rent money on a tattoo. It's all good though, we're just gonna get evicted. FML

Today, I came home to found all of my belongings out on the street. My roommate, who is also my brother, apparantly neglected to pay his part of the rent, and we got evicted. FML

You should play an april fool's prank on him... leave all his stuff on the side of the road and tell him to move out.

There's a difference between an April Fool's prank and just being a plain asshole. Your roommate is an asshole.

I'd casually drop something like "no biggie man, I know you'll pay me back, you make good money with that child pornography thing" the next time his parents are visiting. I may be an ass though. But so is he anyway.

Hopefully it is just a prank OP and he gives up the money tomorrow. If not thats super shitty and im sorry :/

Many places require payment on the 1st, or the next business day. Since the 1st fell on a business day, rent was due. If it's not paid, a late fee is charged. So even if it was a prank on the roommate's part (highly unlikely), they would then have a mark on their record, and a late fee to pay. This would make it a very stupid prank. OP's roommate is just a dick.

That's not funny... Jokes are supposed to be funny. I don't think your roommate understands what joke means
