United Kingdom chat thread V4: lamb rogan josh, £3 meal deals, and brexit - General

I lived at Uni with two mates who drank so much Monster that their piss was burning through the toilet bowl. The other guy had OCD, but what I didn't know was , this did'nt mean he tidied up. It meant he utterly refused to eat anything that wasn't frozen or that someone else had touched. He lived out of three suitcases all year and claimed the whole freezer for himself, we couldn't even fit a pizza in there. He also took 35 minutes to use the bathroom, and if you knocked he had to start the whole routine over again. Nice guy otherwise, very funny.

The flatmates I had in my first year were incredibly nice, along with the cleaner and security. My flat had 5 girls plus myself (being the only guy). They always offered to cook dinner for me every night and were always super tidy, sometimes offering to even do my laundry. It really does just seem to be hit or miss with your first year flatmates at uni

i'm glad i don't have housemates / flatmates. the amount of horror stories i hear: you sign onto a house with what you think are decent people, and then 3 months into it, you realise they're utter bastards. they never clean up, they start fights all the time, they're plain rude, they steal your shit. nah thanks.

I got lucky with my housemates, really no issue at all. the problem was people staying round in the kitchen/lounge area on the sofa. We had some girl who did too much [random intoxicant] and passed out on our sofa, vomited all over the floor (about 4 inches away from specially placed vomit receptacle bowl) and then fucked off in the morning without cleaning. I didn't see it bc I was out at the time but when I heard I had half a mind to find the bitch and push her head into a bowl of cold sick [QUOTE=geogzm;52937006]I have work at 6am and im expected to tiptoe around some passed out girl whos cropped up on the sofa. fuck u son ima eat my cereal at standard decibel volume[/QUOTE] this too. I like to get rowdy as much as the next dickhead but this is where I live, I want to listen to the radio and cook proper breakfast, not have to worry about waking up some spastic I never met [editline]2nd December 2017[/editline] I do miss it a bit tho, our halls had a nice little sense of community, I think I was quite lucky

Glad I've suffered too much brain damage to go to uni.

Seems like a good thing that I went local for my uni choice and didn't have to move out. It's cheaper anyway

I remember visiting a group of mates and they had one housemate who was into the weirdest shit, food-wise. he'd order cow liver, tongue, brain, store it in the freezer. when he'd cook it, the entire place would stink like an abattoir, it was fucking rank.

Like im probably the only person that'd cook some meat up, maybe some burgers or a steak. [editline]2nd December 2017[/editline] ho shit Don't even like football but my facebook has just gone mad because Brighton lost 0-5 to Liverpool fucking hell those poor albion bastards, my girlfriends dad is a huge seagulls fan and he was in such a good mood since they got promoted.

Me and my mates were queuing up for Stone Sour in t-shirts and it began to snow. Fuck that! Then about 3 hours later I slipped on some ice and dislocated my knee. Had to manually relocate it.

sounds painful, why'd you have to manually relocate it? don't you know where your knee is? ba-dum-tsh how painful was it putting your kneecap back in place?

Spent £3 on superglue to fix a £5 flower pot. Used far too much because I didn't see the little butterknife thing it came with until after I put it back in the package. But at least I did a thing I said I was going to do. The pot itself is ugly, cracked, and sticky but at least it doesn't leak. Maybe it's an anaology for my life.

you're a real elliot rodger

Only ever dislocated my arm and shoulder once, popping it back in was one of the weirdest sensations of pain and relief. Can only imagine how bad it is doing your kneecap.

[QUOTE=loopoo;52941839]you're a real elliot rodger[/QUOTE] Spree killers, from what I've heard, blame others for the problems within themselves they don't recognise. I blame myself for all the problems.

[QUOTE=Reagy;52941869]Only ever dislocated my arm and shoulder once, popping it back in was one of the weirdest sensations of pain and relief. Can only imagine how bad it is doing your kneecap.[/QUOTE] i've subluxated both shoulders, that's where it pops out and in really quickly. it's like a kick to the nuts x100 and you feel like you're gonna throw up. ever since that, I wake up every morning with really sore shoulders and I sometimes have a pinched nerve kinda pain running all up and down my back. used to be so bad I'd ask my family members to just wallop the shit outta my back cause that sometimes helped get rid of the pain.

He was on some sort of morphine solution and still screamed the place down.

[QUOTE=loopoo;52941839]you're a real elliot rodger[/QUOTE] Don't be a twat, mate.

Smashed some poor girl's drink by accident after getting up too fast last night. I don't entirely understand how but I didn't even notice until I was several metres away. I just pegged it as well because I was buzzing as one of my mates turned up. The lesson of that anecdote being to know your limits lol Rest in peace cheap rose

Also if I accidentally ate someone's lidl pizza, but said person also leaves my cutlery and kitchen equipment in a skank state all the time and has been caught using my milk and shit - do I reimburse? Or is that sort of an accidental retribution thing. Can't tell :v:

I have never dislocated any part of my body, so I can only imagine how bad it must feel - much sympathy for you Hezzy

I just channelled the pain into anger and it helped me push through and put it back in
