Anyone who has lived in a college residence hall before will know that it's definitely an interesting experience. There are some perks, such as making awesome friends and being close to everything on campus. However, there are also some frustrating parts, one being that you have to learn to live with hundreds of other people. If you're curious about what I mean exactly, keep reading to discover 20 annoying things people in residence halls do as told by Toy Story!
1. Run down the halls
Ugh, this is the worst. Like I'm sorry, but unless there's a fire or you're about to burn something, there is no reason to disturb everyone with your stomping feet.2. Burn food
I'm sure everyones done it at least once or twice, but there's always that one person who will never learn how to make popcorn.3. Leave hair in the shower stall
Is it really that hard to pick up the hair with some paper towels?!?!?
4. Smoke, use hairspray, straighten hair, etc. near the smoke detectors
If you do this knowing that the smoke detectors are super sensitive, don't be surprised when everyone finds out you were the one that caused the fire drill. It'll be super embarrassing!
5. Sing songs while blasting music
I hate to break it to you, but you don't sing as well as you think you do. Also, we are not in elementary school anymore, so please stop singing Hannah Montana songs.6. Have sex while everyone else is trying to sleep
7. Walk into rooms without being invited
Mr. Potato Head makes a good point. Mr. Potato Head knows what he's talking about. Let's all listen to Mr. Potato Head.8. Do laundry at 4 AM
I did this once and totally regretted it 5 seconds later because I could hear the machines from my room (the laundry room is conveniently right above mine). Never again.
9. Invite 5-10 people into the room almost every single day
There's always that one room full of people who are super loud and that everyone secretly hates. Don't be these people.10. Scream "I'M DRUNK" before and/or after going out on Thursday nights
The entire floor already knows, so stop announcing it!!
11. Erase people's whiteboards on their doors
Honestly, how is this even fun? Acting 5 years old in college isn't actually cool.12. Never flush the toilet
Bonnie is basically me when I open the stall door and see the unflushed toilet. I mean, is it really that hard to press down on the handle with your foot?
13. Be loud in the lounge
The lounge is a place for people to study and avoid their roommates, not for you to be distracting!14. Knock on people's doors and say "RA, open up!"
You better make sure the real RAs aren't around, because it's actually offensive and completely unnecessary.15. Leave toilet paper/paper towels all over the bathroom floor
What purpose does this serve??? Someone please tell me, because I just see it as littering.16. Keep the door open so everyone can hear the loud TV
Come on people, there's a thing called manners!17. Stay in the room even though they know you have a ton of work to do
It's so awkward kicking people out, but they're pretty much asking for it at this point.18. Leave laundry in the washer/dryer longer than necessary
... and then complain about someone moving it.19. Barge into people's rooms to either ask for something, rant about their problems, or be nosy
Chances are that you try to avoid these people as much as possible.20. Smoke weed inside the residence hall
I don't care how cold it is or how tired you are -- the smell does not need to linger in the hallway for everyone to notice.
