Top Ten Funky Roommate Quirks

Over the years I have had several opportunities to have roommates. It's really an excellent way to learn about people and how they live. Everyone's family life growing up was different and so not everyone had the same values and ways of doing things in their homelife. It makes life interesting to try out a new way of living by learning another's style to live.

Some roommates are never home. Some stay home all the time. Some are clean and others not so clean. You find out a lot about a person when you live with them. Here are the top ten funky traits I have found in some of my roommates and some I have just heard about.
1. Roommate who has an imaginary friend
2. Roommate who sheds (literally hair everywhere)
3. Roommate who talks constantly about their love of spam
4. Roommate who sneaks up from around the corner to claw your leg (crazy feline)
5. Roommate who tells you they have cancer and they really don't
6. Roommate who was so sheltered they think making microwave popcorn at midnight is an exciting riskay event
7. Roommate who can fart song Jingle bells suprizingly well
8. Roommate who flirts with your blind date before you meet them (happened to me)
9. Roommate who spends hours making homemade dog food for their boyfriends dog
10. Roommate who plucks their nose hair in front of you

Really it's amazing the funny things we all have about us but in reality we are all just people and one persons normal can be totally different from another persons reality.

I think it's good we are all different because if we were all the same it would be a bore. Finding he humor in your roommate challenges is really the best way to get through those things.
