Things We Say to Our Roommates

Living with a roommate can be weird, you are living in what feels like a 4x4 square foot room with too much stuff that you have no idea where it is going to go and you have known this person for all of five minutes. The cool thing about roommates is that you develop a strange system as to how to survive living in this tiny room and you get know them pretty well; so well you basically know how to finish their sentences. So in honor of finishing each others sentences here is a list of things that all of us have said to our roommates at some point in time.

1. But does he have a dad bod?

I'm not sure why, but anytime a guy gets brought up in a conversation his question is always one of the first asked; as if we can't give some love to the scrawny guys too.

2. Are you going out tonight?

"Are you going out tonight because if you do I will too but if you aren't then I don't know if I will but I mean if you do I totally will of course. I also need to know if you will be coming home tonight." I mean we are just looking for an excuse to go out lets be honest now.

3. Can I borrow *insert clothing item here*?

Once you decide to go out, it's almost like all of your clothes have turned ugly and all you need is your roommates clothes because you don't have anything to wear.

4. What time do you get out of class?

Because I need to know how long of a nap I can take.

5. Are you hungry?

Please say yes so that I don't have to eat alone.

6. Where do you want to eat?

Once you both have decided that you need food it takes about another 30 minutes to go get food because you can't decide on where you want to eat.

7. I don't want to go to class today.

I mean yeah, I'm paying a lot of money to go to class, but do I really have to go?

8. Yes, you have to go to class today.

Wow, okay, who are you? My mom?

9. Will you do my homework for me?

I mean you are the one that convinced me to go to class; it's only fair that you do my homework.

10. When is the last time we did laundry?

My favorite shirt is dirty and I can't remember that last time I wore it.

11. Is it bad if I wear this today if I wore it yesterday too?

I mean your Monday, Wednesday and Friday people will never know you wore it in front of your Tuesday and Thursday people.

12. It's too cold in here!

I don't know why you insist on keeping our room the temperature of Antarctica, but I might die of hypothermia if you don't turn the air up!

13. Is that a shacker shirt?

Ohhhh, is that that same boy from that one party you were totally in to?

14. Is that your boyfriend?

Anytime a new boy comes over or the same boy comes over more than once we have to know the details.

15. Why are you naked?

You are in the hallway. I think that question speaks for itself.

16. I saw a dog today!

This is one of my favorite things to ever be said and it's even better when there are pictures of said dog.

17. We need to clean our room!

It's a total disaster and looks like a tornado blew through it!

18. I quit college!

I'm dropping out and moving back home! This adulting thing is WAY too hard!

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
