    I lived with 2 guys for about 9 months and regularly got into arguments with them about anything and everything (I closed the door too loudly, the fire was too hot, I used the oven too much (we had seperate ESB bills) and other things, too many to mention really)

    Anywhosen, 1 day the cops turned up looking for the 2 of them because they had been trying to lure kids into their van and they went on the lan.

    So who is the worst person you've lived with or shared a house with?

    I shared a flat with a guy in England who was a thundering alcoholic. After a few weeks I noticed a smell of piss in the flat. I sort of got used to it and passed it off as the smell from a blocked up septic tank.

    As time went by it got worse, it was so bad that a girl i was seeing wouldnt stay in the flat.

    One night he came home drunk out of his mind and went to bed. I couldnt sleep for some reason that night and in the middle of the night i heard something moving in the flat. I got up and looked out the door of the bedroom and there was himself, sound asleep and having a piss in the corner of the sitting room.

    Needless to say i threw him out the next day.

    I just remembered another.

    I was on a year away in canada and moved into a house. On my first day in the place I was sitting on the porch and this nakid girl ran outta the house and down the street screaming, the cops brought her home a few house hours later. This was just the start, it got weirder and weirder.

    i lived with an awful goon at the start of the college year, seemed fine at first but then i think working night shift all the time got the better of his brain. he was soooooo unsocialible, used to come at 3 in the morning from work when everyone was asleep, start banging doors, washing any of our dishes that we left there...badly might i say. as in ya pick up a cup and it slips out of your hand from the grease.

    he neglected to tell myself and other housemates (who are mates of mine and we moved in same time) that the house was previously broken into, he also had alot of stuff belonging to previous tenant who had been in trouble with the gardai. many shady looking hoo-ers used to come around looking into our windows and doors. used to take stuff from my press and another housemates as well without asking EVER or saying he had taken something.
    he had a major problem with me which only happened after he found out what age i was. (im only 20!)

    to top it off, the day before myself and two other housemates moved out. he decided to come home at 5 o clock with a bunch of people he didnt even know to have a "house party". he neglected to tell these people that he had housemates upstairs asleep. so being quite drunk they decided to make as much noise as humanily possible. doors slamming, loud music, shouting, ringing our doorbell, trying to open our bedroom doors (lucky they were locked!!) then hearing these people planning on robbing stuff from his room and downstairs.

    my other housemate confronted him (i should mention shes as quiet as a mouse) he got right in her face and started to shout abuse in her face. then sometime later he done the same to me. when he finally went to bed he left these randomers alone downstairs in the house. who then tried their luck with myself and my housemate once we went downstairs. they stayed in the house until we could finally get them to leave, this was around half 9. the house was in an awful state, beers soaked into the carpets, bottles everywhere, smell of smoke everywhere, lights left on, heat left on all night, doors left wide open, p!ss all over both toilet seats, one of them broke the toilet seat, my housemates underwear which she had just washed and was on a clotheshorse had gone missing! perverts... :eek:

    next day since we were up all night, we moved out very early that next morning. no apology or nothing. we spoke to the landlord, and told him about that night. sadly enough we moved to a different house in the same estate and have to see this goons face now and then :mad::mad::mad:

    I shared with a compulsive shop lifter friend one Summer in Austria,she refused to pay for anything that she could steal.. so the whole summer she nicked food/booze/clothes/books/make up from various shops.. I thought I was racing through my cash way quicker than normal but it took me three months to figure out that she was fleecing me as well.. if she had asked for cash I would gladly have given it to her but I suppose she was justifying it to herself .. .. I wonder has she moved onto blue collar crime now?:)

    Why?!

    My worst experience was with a female flat-mate while I was in Galway. She did nothing all day and when I got home from FÁS, the place was always in a mess after her. She was basically a fat lazy bitch and had her boyfriend did all the running and racing for her - although neither of them would bring the rubbish to the skips. One day, I arrived to the flat and she had locked the door from the inside. I rang her phone and could hear it inside ringing, unanswered, so proceeded to hammer the **** out of the door. A half an hour later she comes down - "Oh, I didn't hear you":mad::mad:

    I met the fat, useless, bitch a few months after I moved out and she blanked me!

    I've only lived with other housemates once and that was enough.

    There was the French guy who played guitar constantly all day long whilst singing a heavily accented and tuneless version of Sweet Home Alabama. It was the only song he knew and man did he like it! This went on for about six months. He would stay up til 5am every night and then go absolutely mental at me if I made too much noise in the mornings buttering my toast at about 8 or 9am before work because he was tired. The stingy bastard also managed to never pay a bill the entire time I was there.

    The other room in the house housed the very creepy guy who was known on occasion to enter my bedroom in the middle of the night and stand there staring at me whilst I cowered under the duvet. He was also obsessed with turning the heat on in the house. He went mental at me one day when I asked if it was okay to turn the heat off because it was summer time and 25 degrees outside. Nope it was his house too and he would put the heat on if he wanted. He also liked to leave rotting meat and such lying around the house and never washed a single dish.

    My worst was three years ago (not as bag as the drug dealing scumbag from four years ago, but definitely more long-term annoying)

    Anyway, I lived with the guy for a year and didn't know his name for six months. He was one of those people that never speaks until spoken to, and at that does nothing to continue a conversation. Not too bad in itself, but there were a few things he did to make it torture.

    I was in my final year and out from 9-7 most days, looking forward to coming home to relax (the others in the house were mostly away, or kept to themselves upstairs). He obviously had nothing to say to me, I had nothing to say to him. I had gathered from our snips of talk that he didn't like watching TV, and yet he would come down the stairs every evening and sit in the room with me with a cup of tea for half an hour. Saying nothing, not removing his gaze from the TV no matter what was on. Never talking.

    It was annoying at first but it got to me no end after a few months. I started to hate, really HATE and resent his presence. He had no expression apart from this stupid annoying half grin, he spent half an hour in the shower twice a day (and brought 6 bottles in with him, three for his hair, two for washing, an a special contoured bottle for his ears....ugh....). He always smelled like talc.

    Doesn't sound like the worst but easily the most annoying person I have ever met

    Nothing creepy just some idiot lazy gits.
    They insisted on getting sky sports with the cable package and then looking shocked when they were asked to pay their share very month. They also hid from the landlady because they had drank the money mammy gave them for their rent.

    They thought nothing of helping themselves to my food and getting all offended when I finally (after an entire college semester) got pissed off with them and called them ignorant ****ers for never replacing any of it.

    Then their lazy mates were invited to squat in the house, broke my games console, hi-fi, and scratched my CDs.

    I hate business studies students ever since.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,525 ✭✭✭DanGerMus


    I hate Big Brother. Pretty Much every one ever on it is/was a complete ass.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,181 ✭✭✭LolaDub


    I have so so many its hard to pick a worst. One guy worked around the corner from an apartment with three of us in it and got home first in the evenings. He'd change into his nightclothes get the duvet and be on the couch watching tv by 4.30. He stayed there all night every night, would never let anyone else near the remote, even took it into the toilet with him. He'd only leave to go to the toilet when we weren't in the living room and would highlight all the shows he wanted to watch in the paper to 'book' them.

    Another girl who moved in at the start wanted the big en suite room and agreed x amount of rent. Then over Christmas she pushed a note under my door that said she wanted to pay less rent than me or she was leaving. I told her i'd swap rooms with her and she could pay less rent but she said no way she wanted her room which was much bigger than mine and had the ensuite for less than what i paid for mine. Came home on rent day and she was gone!

    The worst was a girl who moved in who seemed to have no standards of hygeine whatsoever. She shared a bathroom with another housemate and when he got pissed off that she never ever bought toilet roll and used it for everything, taking make up off etc, he kept it in his room. She still never bought any though! She never did any cleaning or washed her own clothes, but she would take my clothes from the clothes horse, even underwear and socks and of course always denied she did it despite wearing my clothes while denying it. Never ever bought food but took ours, still denying it. Once i cooked a pizza, took it out of the oven and left it on a plate and went quickly to the bathroom, came back and a slice had been cut out. I went in and said if you wanted some you only had to ask but she said she didn't take any. She was still eating it!!! When i pointed that out to her she said she had bought and made herself a slice of pizza and a slice missing from mine was purely coincidental and then became offended that i had accused her. Despite smoking not being allowed in the apartment as per landladys instructions she constantly smoked in the apartment and denied she did it :rolleyes: One day when my then boyfriend was coming over to Dublin for a weekend i had cleaned the apartment and went to meet him at the airport early in the morning. When we got back she was passed out on the couch in her underwear with a duvet clutching a bottle of tesco brand gin :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    I live with my brothers, who walk around in their underwear (normally standing to attention too), eat all the food, borrow my hair straightener and leave nudie mags in the bathroom. (I enjoy the articles, but it gives me ma a bit of a shock)

    I get a 6am wakeup call every weekday morning when my housemate stomps in to the bog beside my room and takes a whizz aiming for the water with accompanying oooooohhhss and ahhhhhsss. He may as well sit a saucepan on my pillow and take a slash into that.

    My flatmate in college, who was a good friend, once had a drunken moody day because he got turned down by a girl the previous night. Cue a very very amusing day (which I did my best to be out and about for, only popping back in for the funny parts and highlights). His mates had dropped around to try and cheer him up and get him to stop drinking.

    Highlight no. 1: Walking in the door to find him drunkenly trying to rub his ballsack off one of the other guys.
    Highlight no. 2: We think he pooped himself at one stage. That was around the point the others dragged him off to the shower and I left for a pint.
    Highlight no. 3: Later that evening myself and the girl from down the hall, who hung around in our place a fair bit and I was trying to get stuck into, were vaguely cuddling on the couch while he was passed out on the other one. Laughing at the silly things that had happened, when all of a sudden he shifts slightly, and begins unbuckling his belt and sliding his hands into his pants. Needless to say we sent him to bed.

    Great guy, and a good flatmate, but man some of the ridiculuous **** was erm...well..ridiculuous.

    1. I lived in a house in Dublin with a few other girls. One moved her bf into her room. I didnt mind. He's a lovely guy and helped around the house and paid his way. She was the problem. Lets just say there were some "issues" with her. Her poor bf wasnt allowed to talk to us. He did all her cooking and cleaning. She made him wait in the bathroom while she showered. She would make a point of moaning very loudly while they were in bed, just to irritate everyone. When the rest of us went home every weekend, she would take stuff from the other girls rooms. Thankfully she never touched my stuff. She was afraid of me because of my dress sense and my taste in music. Daft I know, but she was a complete nutjob.

    2. Another year of college I lived with a guy who slept all day and stayed up all night. It wouldnt have bothered me that much only that my room was next to his and the walls were paper thin. He had a fondness for asian porn, which I heard every night. Not pleasant.

    3. One of my current housemates is pretty bad. She has a serious drinking problem. She used to drink in the living room every night, until she was mouldy. This meant none of the rest of us could use the room, as she'd watch episodes of Stargate Atlantis ad nauseum. She'd eventually pass out around 2 or 3 and wake up at 5 or 6am and crash and bang the whole way up the stairs. A lot of the time she's late for work, or sometimes doesnt go in at all because she's so hungover. Last year she rang in sick for every bank holiday. The May bank holiday she drank for 3 days running. It came to a head at christmas after 3 weeks she drank non stop as she was off sick on a cert. She passed out and threw up all over herself and the suite of furniture. Red wine vomit. It doesnt clean easily. It was projectile as it ended up on the walls, across the floor, everywhere. We had an intervention, but she's taken to going straight to her room, so she can drink in private. We've gone into her room when she's not there, (lousy I know) and there are 30+ empty wine bottles under her bed.

    i lived in between 2 german woman who seriously pissed me off

    they used to make charters for days who does what cleaning etc and made up a shedule

    If i played music in my room ( my room was right inbetween theres , one to either side of my side ) they would come in and shout "DAS MUSIC IST SEHR LAUT" etc

    Was horrible, ended up shagging one of them tho before i left ( got kicked out ) so wasnt too bad in the end :)

    my last housemate was an American guy aged around 25/26. Very nice chap, very polite. He cooked his dinner, ate it and washed up immeadiately. Bathed every single night, went to bed at 9pm...every single night. Got up at 5am 7 days a week and did an hour of exercise (sit-up's, push-up's). His body was totally ripped, i mean tanned six pack...

    What was the problem? God love him but he was sooo stupid. I couldn't listen to all the stupid crap he came out with. It was like living with the ditziest man on the planet. I know it's not terrible like most of the stories here but the mental abuse of listening to 'dumb & dumber's' younger brother, 'Dumbest' was agony in the end! :D

    Lived with a 'fashion designer' once before... Laziest, messiest freak I've even had the misfortune to share company with. She was recently graduated from some Tossy posh designer school her folks had to shell out for and seemed to think the world owed her some fabulous career cause she made a wedding dress in college (WTF? That's all you did in college in four years?!!)

    Met her on daft, said she was a non-smoking professional and I thought "great" as am I'm also non-smoking professional. Lets rent together. Within two weeks she'd canned her job and was chain-smoking and reducing the place to a pig sty. Wore the worst clothes ever, incidentally, never washed them, became a kind of second skin - a greasy threadbare food-stained skin.

    Needless to say we stopped 'getting on' when she just turned into a fat lump that smoked all day. She couldn't take the least bit of criticism or gentle reminders to clean and would leave the nastiest notes for me to find in the fridge e.g. "Dear Cúnt face..." Towards the end of our tenure (we stopped speaking for four months before) I came back during lunch (worked around the corner from the place) to find a seventeen page letter addressed to me! What a fúcking freak! Couldn't talk to me like? I never read her shítty letter and took pleasure in telling her this.

    I could go on about her hygene etc. but it would sicken me to recall the details... my mate shagged her though :eek:

    Where do I start :confused:

    1. Lived with a girl when I first arrived in the smoke who was addicted to buying two packs of deodorant - If it was 2 for €4 etc. In her room (no joke) the floor was covered, the shelves were covered, everywhere was covered with 2 packs of deodorant and shower gel. It was freaky. She wore the exact same underwear - had like 14 pairs and 14 bras all the same and she'd wash 7 at the end of a week, all safety pinned together and dry them pinned together on the radiators - freaky.

    2. Lived with a guy who owned the house. He had a safe in which we "posted" our envelope (constant supply by said safe) every Friday with our weekly amount. He only had girls renting the 3 rooms in the house. Wouldn't allow males. He locked the sitting room every day and the girls weren't allowed into it. He had an obsession with bleach and bought 3 or 4 huge bottles every week. He didn't clean?? :mad: Could often hear him and his girlfriend going at it in the small hours, caused many sleepless nights as he took up the entire attic above all our rooms. I bought a sweeping brush especially for banging on the ceiling with.

    3. Lived with a very strange girl - she was a bit of a compulsive eater and thought that if she hid her eating from me, it would be like she wasn't eating at all. Example - she'd come in from work, turn on CARTOONS and sit on the couch scoffing biscuits and I mean Cookie Monster style. I'd walk into the room and cue her stuffing packet of biscuits under a cushion. I'd be like "got a few crumbs on your top there" :D There was crash diet after crash diet and taking diet pills. All sorts with this one.

    Glad I'm not sharing with weirdos anymore! :)

    We lived with a bunch of stoner girls a few years back. One of them was a real princess. Used to leave notes around the bathroom rather than actually asking us anything face to face.

    One day we were having dinner, lasagna or Shepard's pie or something. She came in picked up the dish we baked our dinner in and goes, "Ah couldn't ye have washed this?"

    I was gobsmacked

    First, we always did the wash up, she never did.
    Second of all we were just finishing our dinner.
    and it was our bloody dish!

    Wow some really good horror tales here I have to say.

    When I rented in Dublin my landord was a complete di*k. Every morning he would ask us all to fill out a form telling him what we would be doing for the evening once we got back and settled in for the night. He was extemely attentative as to what the housemates were doing. He wanted to know if:

    1) We were going to be bringing back any friends and he frowned upon girls if I had any over (which for some reason seriously pi$$ed him off).

    2) What we intended cooking for dinner. He never wanted any chicken meals cooked in the oven if other meats were cooked in the oven very recently.

    3) If we broke any rules he would lock the kitchen and told us to go to the takeaway. Miserable git.

    When I lived in the UK I had a flatmate who always raided everybody's fridge items late at night. He used to have almighty feeds at 3-4am and feast on everybody's elses food. It was so bad that eventually it came to head when another one of my flatmates threw his bed outside the flat. He was a complete skiver who at any opportunity would rob you blind. The other thing and most importantly is that he would sneak into our rooms whenever we were away. For some reason I was the only person's room he wouldn't raid. Not sure why, maybe because I didn't like him and we had nothing in common. Everybody else was not so lucky. During trips to the shower he would sneak in and take cd's, de-odourant's etc. He would take my food though!!!

    Why didn't you tell him it was your turn to watch something??
    Or change the station over when he was at the toilet !!!
    He probably did it cos he got away with it.

    I thought i had some annoying housemates but i think i've been pretty lucky from reading these!!

    One guy constantly banged doors really hard late at night and early in the morning. Don't think it was on purpose as he was sound enough but it was so annoying. Another girl had her boyfriend practically living in our place so often times there'd only be them and myself at weekends where i didn't go home so that was fun looking at them all over eachother :eek::eek: If they weren't that way they were fighting. I don't know which was more headwrecking. He also paid zilch toward bills. Got pissed off with it after a while so told her he was there too much why couldn't she stay in his place. So she started going over once a week on a Friday which was brilliant. She wasn't impressed though. Tried to make me feel guilty about it as he lived with his dad and the shower etc wasn't the cleanest and it basically put her out a bit. Like i cared!!

    Why are people so selfish and weird? ;)

    Oh my god, this thread is so scary, there are so many weirdos out there! So thankful im moving in with my two friends shortly, if i could ever get anyone to take my frikkin room off me!

    In College lived with a complete stoner, never went to college and hid copies of nuts behind the fridge?! WTF! Came home one night and decided to play loud rubbish dance music at 4am so i went to the breaker box outside my bedroom door and cut him off from the source.

    Eventually enough was enough and em and the other girl had him tossed out, decided NOT to bring the drug thing into it trying to be nice and keep it about the basics, messy,loud,keeping a non - rent paying friend in his room.

    So every time he saw me in college after he got tossed out he would shout obscenities at me for everyone to hear.

    Then he THREATENED me one night in a nightclub with all my friends watching, said something about getting him kicked out of HIS penthouse apartment. I felt like saying ehhh its not YOURS dude, i was the first one renting that apartment, go FCUK yourself...

    The last house I rented was bloody awful. I lived with four other people in total but two of them were going out with eachother. It was terrible. They were by far, the most disgusting human beings I have EVER come across in my life. They'd leave the house in a state that actually makes me gag thinking about it.

    I remember I was away for a week and when I came back our kitchen was swarming with flies. There was not one clean plate in the house, the fridge was disgusting, the bins were overflowing onto the floor.

    The bathroom was a nightmare altogether. The girl in particular was a fooking dog. She left used tampons on the floor, never ever ever flushed the toilet, left her razors scattered in the bath and on the floor. Just disgusting.

    Anyway myself and the other two housemates had enough and after constant arguments and 'house meetings' trying to be civil to them became impossible. It turned into a huge bust up. The landlady was called, (who was also a wagon, may I add) and we all said what was what. These two filthmongers caused loads of damage to the house too, cigarette burns on the furniture, smashed pictures, wine spilled all over the carpet etc..

    In the end we managed to get them to leave. They were moving out and the three of us were delighted, then the landlady came over and said she wanted us all gone by the end of the following week. Ugh.. :(

    Lesson learned: Don't live with filthy muckbirds and always sign a contract!! :mad:

    When I was studying in Germany lived with a guy who used to put pamplets about jesus under my door when he found out I didn't believe. We had a wash room for the corridor, so had shower cubicles, he used to come into the shower room and read the bible to me. Used to end up showering at like 4am after being clubbing and he'd be there! He'd also write biblical phrases on my food. He also used to watch that weird german car stripping woman thing (not sure of the name) in the kitchen EVERY evening, while the rest of us were cooking, very uncomfy! We also had a girl from the corridor across from us who used to walk across the windowsills (5 floors up!!) to get in our kitchen to load her bags and leave again, no one knew how our food was missing til we looked out one day to see her there Spiderman style. :P

    I <3 these threads

    Never personally had any horrible housemate, but I did live in an apartment where you could hear the tenant upstairs beating his girlfriend senseless every so often

    Was liviign with 3 people at the start of the college year. Two of them are the cheapest people I have ever met. One night for dinner the two of them shared 8 slices of Tesco value chees slices. For breakfast every day they would have half a tin Tesco or Lidl suasage in beans followed by half a tin of Tesco value sweetcorn. Their dinner would be the remainder of the two tins.

    The cheapest of the two would always invite himself out drinking with me and my friends and would always want to do rounds ordering the most expensive drink he could get away with. When his round came he would always disappear to the bathroom before returning a short time later when he knew a new round was going and would ask for the same again. First time this happened I warned him and second time I flat out told him to go Fcuk himself. Worst thing was that at the time he was on a full grant, got some top up grant thing and a St Vincent De. Paul grant also.

    He would go into my room when I was in college and take DVDs, my Xbox, cds and anything else he fancied. I had to start locking my door and even then I would come home to find the door handle screwed off as he had tried to get in. There were numerous other things he would do that we either downright cheap or creepy.

    When he moved out a complet enut job moved in but that's a story for another time.

    I lived with a heroin junkie last year... beat that. :)

    I lived with a heroin junkie aswell who used to always have mates up in his room doin gear for hours,and also another lad in the gaf was one of the towns biggest pushers,sold everything like,handy for smoke but anyway he's in jail now and there was this bird,a mate from skool who was seriously messed in the head,she talked to herself all the time,put makeup on before going to sleep every nite,you couldnt really hold a full conversation with her,her reply to everything was 'what,oh my god,what,who what oh my god' all different variations on that but to be honest it was hilarious!! one nite some of the neighbours were in sessioning with a load of us,every nite there would be a session but anyway one of the lads had a load of yokes upstairs and was convinced one of the neighbours robbed them and decked him in the hall and left him there till he woke up,this guy was mental,just as well he's locked up really.
    here's a good story actually,one nite there was a few lads up in the gaf and they were dyin to get some gear so they got a lift out to a nearby dealer but needed a phone to call whilst out there and after alot of persuasion I gave mine to them,was new on top of it all but anyway they went out to get this gear and after getting it the cops had caught onto em and followed em,and one of the lads dropped my phone out the window and fair play to him he jumped out of a moving car at about 60miles after me phone,they all got arrested that nite and spent the nite in the cells and one of the lads had to swallow the gear and the next morning when he was back up in the gaf he had to **** it out and used it then. that was just a normal tuesday or wedesnday nite though,ive hundreds of storys like that. alot of them though are really bad so ill stop here.
