One of my roommates stole some loose change out of a piggy bank I have in my room, probably for smokes. The thing is I wouldn’t have known, but my bank comes apart in two halves and when he put it back together after taking the money he put one side the right way and the other side upside down, as if just to say “fuck you, I stole your money, what are you going to do about it?”

I have been friends with him through grade/high school, and I would have given him the money if he would have asked.

It just seems like a kick in the teeth that he doesn’t seem to even give a shit about it. —Looking for a bachelor apartment

  1. is the bank big enough to plant a mousetrap?

    I had to do that to an old roommate once.

    It works beautifully.

  2. If you’ve known your roomie that long, why not sit him down and tell him what you told us in your bitch? Then never leave money out again.

  3. Try emptying his smoke pack after he goes to sleep. Then you’ll both have a secret.

  4. Fart into his pillows. It will be an added bonus if he contracts pink eye.

  5. Had a roomie do that to me once, except it was $40 out of a plain-looking can I kept some cash savings in. I was pissed and confronted him and he was so ashamed and said he was gonna pay me back. He did, but I have no way of knowing if he would have had I not confronted him.

    Talk to the guy, sometimes people are hard up and addictions (including cigarettes) make people desperate. If you’ve been his friend this long talking to him won’t kill you.

    Having said all that, I ALSO got a bachelor apartment shortly after this incident, heh.
