Strange housemate stories

It's been a long while since I had housemates but it's fair to say that in my early twenties I moved around a fair bit until i bit the bullet and moved into a place on my own. There are some strange people about!

My stories are fairly mundane, people who didn't clean up EVER, housemates who only ate super noodles out of a saucepan and somehow didn't get scurvy, housemates who seemed determined to shag anyone single in our town and the one who liked Winnie the Pooh more than anyone in their late twenties should admit too!

The one who made me leave decided that he fancied me, and started trying to get into my bed in the middle of the night Confused. I'm not sure if he thought I would roll over and reciprocate his advances but after I started barricading myself in at night I started looking at places on rightmove with enthusiasm!

Someone who thought condoms were flushable… there was a lot more, but that was the biting point!

Housemate 1 accused me of flirting with her married (with new baby) brother. Later that evening I heard a piercing scream - she had walked in on her brother shagging housemate 2.

Sounded like the house mate no 2 suggested you were the flirty one to deflect off her !

Had an argument with one once and returned home later to find ALL the contents of my shampoos and shower gel bottles poured down the drain.
The one that was trying to potty train her child who wasn't even a year old (obviously completely failed) and just left shit filled pants all over the kitchen floor.
And the pregnant woman who never opened the windows in her tiny room and chained smoked cigarettes and marijuana (walked past the room while door was open and the smell was shocking)
