40 Photos That Prove Roommates Are The Ultimate Test Of Patience (And Sanity)
Roommates. They’re either your best friends, your worst nightmares, or—most likely—both at the same time. One day, you’re bonding over late-night pizza; the next, you’re contemplating calling the police because someone ate your leftovers again.
This collection of 40 pictures perfectly captures the ridiculous, frustrating, and downright hilarious reality of cohabiting with another human being. From dishes that mysteriously never get washed to bathroom habits that defy logic, these images are a tribute to the chaos, passive-aggressiveness, and unexpected hilarity that come with sharing a living space. If you’ve ever had a roommate, prepare to laugh (and maybe cry) at these painfully relatable moments.

#23. Roommate always pays rent in $1 bills
My roommate works as a bartender, so he gets loads of $1 bills. He usually keeps the bigger bills, and pays rent with the 1s. I’ve told him various times to please change the bills before paying, but he takes it as a joke. At first it kinda was, but now it’s just annoying. He’s also late on his rent payment for January… only paid $200/500 because he has an upcoming birthday trip to Colombia.
