Thanks George For Keeping Your Voice At a Reasonable Volume

My roommate eats six jars of peanut butter a month.

His girlfriend does not know what Koolaid is.

I now have proof of how low standards can get

And also of how low the rent I paid is.

Sharing Is Caring

If your roommates are loud

And you want them to hush

Just say “Hey roomie,

“Where’d you put our toothbrush?”

Just Because I Can’t Take It With Me Doesn’t Justify Your Shenanigans, Kevin!

If I were to die tomorrow

And my body just rotted away

And I lived as a ghost

With no body for a host

Even though I never got all old and gray

I would be irked. That’s certain.

But I think that as I crossed the bridge

From Earth to Hell or Heaven

I’d think of my roommate Kevin

And hope he wouldn’t steal my food out of the fridge.

My Bathroom Enemy

(This one’s for anyone who’s lives in a five bedroom, one bath house).

It’s seven fifty-five

And I work at eight.

He’s the only reason

That I’m always late.

He used up the hot water

But he doesn’t care.

He gets back in the shower.

He forgot to wash his hair.

My bathroom nemesis

Taking his daily bowel exodus!

He thinks that it’s his destiny

To be the only one to pee!

My bathroom enemy.

One I day got the flu.

I was puking for days,

I couldn’t use the bathroom

‘Cause of what’s-his-face.

At midnight I snuck in

To go number two.

We’re out of toilet paper.

Oh yeah! Guess who?

My bathroom adversary

Taking longer than necessary.

He thinks that it’s his destiny

To be the only one to pee.

My bathroom enemy!

I haven’t bathed in eighteen days.

I just can’t get around this guy.

I’ve has enough. I’ll show him

A brand new bathroom in the sky!

And when he’s dead

We’ll think we’re saved,

But the corpse will miss the burial

‘Cause he still hasn’t shaved!

My bathroom supervillain,

On the procelain throne, just chillin’.

Turns out it’s not his destiny

To be the only one to pee.

The other roommates worship me

‘Cause I killed my bathroom enemy!

Why Is The Seat Still Damp?

Have you heard of zen archery,

Where you shoot straight and narrow

By using all your strength of will

Until you become the arrow?

I used that logic on my roommate

And got him really pissed.

Alas, he’s no zen archer

‘Cause somehow he still missed.
