That's actually pretty sick.

if your living with "normal people" there will always be one dude who smokes more weed than you thought was humanly possible

I like being alone in my house for about a day or two... then it gets lonely and scary!!

I like having housemates that I kind of know as acquaintances, so I'm not obligated to always chat them up, but it's not weird/awkward having them around and we have some stuff in common and know each other a bit.

I don't like living with people.

I'm an only child and prefer the solitude as well as being able to clean/organize things the way I like. I find I've lived with people who don't share my standards of clean (ie bathrooms/kitchens don't have to be cleaned regularly), and it upsets me.

And if I'm lonely, I can always invite someone over.

But living with only one other person is much, much easier than living with five other people. Bleh.

only get a roommate if you know the person well enough to know that they are sane. in most cases roommates suck.

I lived with 3 ppl in res(awful experience- triple room), then 6 people in a house, and then now 5 people in a house.

some people are just awful to share living space with even if you can hide out in your own room. for example with chores, them being loud etc.

but then again be alone would get lonely!

so maybe just a good friend or two would be best

How is it hard?

You can just do it in the shower. Everything just flushes away. The water and soap makes perfect lubricant.

Guess you never watch **** with your guy friends eh?

Weirdest time to get an erection. Second weirdest is probably watching a sex scene in a movie with parents...
