Yes, my daughter should have to clean up after an insensitive and irresponsible idiot.

Exactly in what way is she NOT a victim of idiocy of her roommate?

jdub

4/16/20 4:28pm

Yes, her roomate is being insensitive. But can she force her hand?

zerigke

4/16/20 4:32pm

And I agree with 777 below. Bring her home where she can be safest.

I wouldn't call it insensitive. I would call it something else that would be accurate, but get me suspended.

jdub

4/16/20 4:33pm

I probably came off as attacking and super unempathetic. I apologize.

zerigke

This hardly ever happens in CB. Good for you.

If the moron roommate gets sick and doesn’t show symptoms, jdub’s daughter...

You are absolutely right. I take back what I said. Horrible take on my part.

zerigke

4/16/20 4:40pm

Or the roommate could go somewhere else since that's the most mitigating factor

Agreed. Protecting the old and vulnerable is at the top of the list.

777

Ditto. This just sounds like a jerk move.

Some kids can be pretty selfish.

Hate to be a narc, but that needs to be reported.

Your daughter's roommate is a cougarboarder?

LiveCoug

Plenty of cougarboarders are idiots, as evidenced by some responses in this thread, but not all idiots are CBers.

Bring her home. Protect her. Having her live with someone who doesn't care about

Tomorrow is the last day of finals. She also has research she needs to do for her job. At home, she cannot work nearly

jdub

Well if her health is that important she should make an adjustment. My son came

Again, it wasn't an issue until today. Did you miss the part about last day of finals TOMORROW?

jdub

4/16/20 5:07pm

Easy fella.... sure the roommate is being a tool. But if my child

kotacoug

Having a few friends over to make brownies isn't "partying". I don't know if you can fault her roommate for that

IceBlueCoug

4/16/20 5:08pm

Yes, I can fault the roommate for that.

jdub

4/16/20 5:11pm

It may be the right call but it's beyond ridiculous that her roommates should force her into that position

spinner

4/16/20 5:09pm

Hypo for Spinner: If the roomie was inviting a boy over after hours, would you

rcbyufan

4/16/20 5:17pm

Hey! The roommate already did that at least once.

jdub

4/16/20 5:22pm

Probably not, but at the same time I'm not really the right person to ask

Why didn’t she live with you guys. If she’s in the at risk group she should

That mentality sounds familiar.

Her roommate sound like 90% of CB.

IceBlueCoug

4/16/20 4:46pm

How do you figure that sounds like 90% of CB?

gwalker

4/17/20 1:44am

Because I’m on CB everyday and read all the posts

You may want to retake a math class or two.

Good news: asthma is no longer a risk factor.
