The 10 Most Annoying Things People Do In A Communal Bathroom

Pxhere: Free Images

Sometimes, the people you live with can really get under your skin. College bathrooms are probably some of the most disgusting places on earth. And it's not because they are bathrooms -- plenty of people keep their bathrooms clean. It's because, in any group of young adults, you're bound to find at least one person who is lazy, gross, and has no respect for shared spaces.

Believe me, I've shared a bathroom with at least a few of them.

Here are the most annoying and just plain disgusting things these nasty mofos did:

1. Knocking your towels down and not picking them up

I get it if your arm bumps into my towel (or really any of my stuff!) and it falls, stuff happens. But to just leave it there and go on your merry way? Come on.

2. Leaving their stuff in/on the sink

You have your designated place to leave your stuff. Don't blockade other people from using the sink. Next time I see your crap there I'm putting it on the floor.

3. Not changing the toilet paper

Seriously, so gross guys. Especially when someone leaves their long dark hair all over the sink every. single. day. You know who you are.

5. Flicking/splashing/spitting water on someone else

I shared a bathroom with someone who would squeeze out her (very long) wet hair and drip it on the floor, and then toss her hair back so the water hit everyone around her. And someone else who would spit her toothpaste so hard that it bounced back from the sink and hit me multiple times. Literally the most disgusting thing.

6. Not washing your towels

This is the worst. And if your towel smells that much like sweat after your shower, you probably didn't really clean yourself fully. By your age, you think you'd know how to properly clean yourself. You're nasty.

7. Dripping water all over the floor (and not wiping it up)

So many people in my old house leaked water all over the floor from their showers and then just left it there for other people to slip in it or get their perfectly dry socks wet. And again: I don't know what the hell is in your shower water, but I certainly don't want it near my feet.

8. Cleaning weird body parts at the sink

No one wants to see you scrub your belly button. Please do that in private. Thanks.

9. Flushing the toilet while someone else is washing their hands (without warning)

So you can get a nice burn. It's really not that hard to announce before you flush, or at least wait until you hear the sink stop running.

And the one that really gets me:

10. TURNING THE F*ING LIGHTS OFF WHEN SOMEONE ELSE IS IN THE SHOWER.

Seriously, people. Don't do this.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

25 Thoughts Everyone Has When Registering For Classes

May the odds be ever in your favor.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

University of Kentucky

pointsincase.com

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

The struggles of having an RBF are all too real

1. People asking if you're mad at them.

2. Those people who hand out flyers don't always try to stop you.

3. Creepy guys telling you to smile.

4. "I thought you were a bitch when I first met you."

5. People telling you you'd be "so much prettier if you smiled."

6. Doing your makeup and looking great, which somehow intensifies the bitch face.

7. Regularly explaining "it's just my face."

We all go through certain stages when we have a crush, Tina just explains it better.

That moment that someone you never looked twice at suddenly makes you do a double take out of no where.

But you can't have a crush, that's outrageous. It's all in your head.

Because you don't have a crush, there's no reason to tell anyone about anything. Right?

But then they do something irresistible and you start to lose it.

Now accepting the fact you have a crush, you have to keep it under control.

Then there's the part where you tell your friends who will claim they called it.

They'll be excited and cheer you on. That's until they realize that your crush is all you'll be talking about.

Your obsession has become so bad, that your Facebook stalking is getting out of control.

But your friends will try and help move things along any way they can. That doesn't mean it will be any helpful though.

As time goes on, you start having fantasies about the two of you and it's starting to scare you a little.

You can't focus on anything because all your attention is on them and everything they do.

Anybody who comes near your crush is now an enemy, and you are willing to fight for your crush.

When you see them, you act like an idiot. Trying to hide your feelings may not be as discrete as you think.

Keeping your feelings inside will start to be harder and harder until you can't keep it inside anymore.

Who knows, maybe it will work out? Take a chance.

Everybody hurts sometimes.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

1. You feel like an elder.

2. You may feel lonely.

3. Senioritis is more real than ever.

4. You may feel a little down sometimes.

5. Fear of missing out won't be as real.

6. You are a college pro.

7. You'll have more free time.

8. You're happy you're still in school.

9. You feel like a guru.

10. You continue to grow.
