No voice
Today I'm not in any way pissed off with my flatmate. She has lost her voice. In fact I'm so pleased I don't have to hear her talk, I'm not going to complain about her today. I hope her voice doesn't come back!

Great stuff. Just stopping by the site in one of my random quests for entertainment. Keep up the good work, and feel free to stop by my blog should you be looking for entertainment as well.
she's probably going to have to come up with some way to compensate. like when she forgets her keys and then throws rocks at your window instead of just using the intercom.
Hear, Hear!
Enjoy the sweet sound of silence...while it lasts!

This is absolutely the time. Have SEX with her. It will solve all your problems. Nothing like bodily lust and an ooh-aah to distract you from minor daily irritations.

Man whenever i feel i have it bad with roommates (not so much now but i have had some really bad ones) I come to this blog and have a chuckel at your extreemly wonderful observations on "my flatmate". the only thing terrible about her leaving... well actualy there are two would be first this blog would end, and second would be the poor person who'd have to use her room next. ugg think 'bout the cleaning bill...
My dear roommate,
I've lost my voice becoz I was giving out free blowjobs at the local pub.
Hugs & Kisses,
Your lovely flatmate.
Darn. What a let down. No epic tales of excrutiating behavior today. What a let down . . . .
I absolutely LOVE your blog. Delightful entries!! I enjoy the pictures too. Will add this blog to my favorites!
I can tell a tale to fill the void! I live in a pretty big house, and am the only person without a phone jack in my room. Unfortunately, I also live down a long hallway, so the closest phone to me is about 30 feet away. One night,when I was home with just one other roommate, we happened to get an abnormal number of calls.
Each time, the phone would ring once or twice, I would realize that she was not going to answer it, and then have to get up and sprint to the closest phone (answering it by about the 5th ring, missing a few calls in some cases!).
After probably the 5th or 6th call of the evening, she happened to say "sorry to make you run around, I just don't answer the phone. It's a personal thing." I was too stunned at the time to say anything, but I couldn't believe it. If she doesn't KNOW that the call is for her, she will not answer the phone. It's fucking ridiculous.
Tonight, I attempted to call my house at least 6 times within a 10 minute span. Even though I had just left the house and knew that it was full of people, there was no answer. When I returned, I asked my housemates if they had heard the phone. They told me that there had been a call for this particular roommate, and she had been on the phone the whole time. So, not only does she never answer the phone, but she never answers beeps either. No matter how annoying it is to answer the beep, we all do it - and if there were 6 beeps within a very short time period, wouldn't you think it was somebody desperately trying to get ahold of someone? Perhaps an emergency? AUGH! I can't believe she still wouldn't answer it.
Just curious. I just encountered your blog, and was wondering, if you hate your flatmate so much, why are you still living with her?
Have a good flatmate day.
If you stop blogging, does it mean there is a body buried somewhere?
It is good to vent, it beats the alternatives.
Living alone sucks, and living with most people, sucks.
Living with someone's future serial killer kid is no picnic either and I'm not talking from experience ...
Keep up the good work, it looks like you have something good going here.
I get little traffic as of this date on my personal site, "The Stark Raving Viking" but on FreeSpeech.com, we get about 35,000 page hits a week.

you should let her learn the hard way, next time she does something to piss you off, leave her standing outside, turn off your mobile, even stay over with a friend so you don't have to know what she is up to!
she'll soon learn you can't run to her rescue all the time.
LOVE this site.
what a great outlet. i came upon it by googling "i hate my roommate" and wah-la ! your site was the first on the list.
it's very comforting to me.
