there was an asian fellow who lived down the hall who talked really loudly and could be seen occasionally trying to peep into girls' rooms through the wrong side of the peephole
there was another asian fellow two doors down who would have a bunch of people (including, say, a girl who wore hats with cat ears on them) come over and they would sing j-pop and anime theme songs together long into the night
I grew up about 5 minutes from the university I go to.
So I never got the whole... dorm experience. That would have been a colossal waste of money. Though for some reason some people I went to high school with did end up living in the dorms.... at the university they live so close to already.
I live about 15 minutes from a pretty reputable private university I could have transferred to, however first off I wouldnt want to go to school so close to home, and also it has a crazy comprehensive tuition for 50k a year, I guess they make students live on campus there or some crazy shit? I dunno.
I have to say though, if I focus on the couple bad neighbors I've had in life, I'm really loosing track of all the good ones. I had so many good neighbors as a kid, lived on a really great street. Our next-door neighbors became family friends soon after my parents moved in (before I was born), and after basically became my aunt and uncle.
And since we've moved up to Oregon, once our 10 year old husky-malamute mix took off one night in winter with our 2 month old chocolate lab pup in tow. Turned out it was the coldest winter we've had in the 15 years we've been up here (10 degrees). Well around 3 AM the husky shows up ... no pup. The tracks disappeared when they hit the road, with the wind blowing too much. So everything seems fucked until the next morning around 10:00 a lady about a mile down the road calls saying a very cute puppy camped out on her deck, was treated to a nice sausage breakfast, and would probably like to come home now.
E: Oh wait I'm getting off topic Curse you horrible neighbors and such!

I lived with a guy in Iraq who was easily the most slovenly dude I've had to live with. He'd eat crackers and chips and all kinds of snack shit while laying in bed, and then he'd just roll over and go to sleep, covered in crumbs and detritus. Then all that shit would fall down onto me while I was asleep, and I'd wake up covered in bullshit.
just got new neighbours the other side, the guy there is called stephen (and him and his missus are both police officers )
Why sad faces? Having a buddy that's a cop can be pretty damn handy.
Unless you're some kind of degenerate.
Didn't you see that Samuel L. Jackson movie? Cops are terrible neighbors.

My times in the dorms were awesome
For nerd shit: floor wide Halo LAN parties.
Floor v. Floor games
For brah shit: Theme parties with the girls on the other floors, multiple invites to exclusive events (since half of the people in my school are Greek), and tons of fist pounding.
My first roomie was a fucking hippie though, but a nice dude. My second roomie was my best friend from first year, so it was actually kind of a bromance.

But he isn't my buddy
I never talk to him
I can't just blurt out "MY NEIGHBOURS ARE COPS" after shanking a dude with a bottle in a bar and hope for good things
after we moved in 9th grade i knew none of my neighbors except the family right right next door
thats about it
back in the day at the old place i was friendly with most of my neighbors except i have memories of being little and the two kids from across the street assaulting me with water guns one day and so i ran to the back of my house and got the hose
i was a winner!

i had issues with one in london but i think once you put 6 people in one apartment people are going to end up hating each other regardless
The bedroom doors have locks on them, so I'll be alright.
I hope so.
they're okay
that sounds awesome.
Everybody is a little crazy when you're living in a 5 by 5 box
especially if the box is made out of concrete and has no windows
and the guys are all living on the opposite side of the planet from their family and (real) friends
and all the people who live in this country you're in are potential killers
and you're all required to carry loaded weapons at all times
Oh, hey, I got one of those when I got shot at. In the hood.

Every black guy around me had ducked behind a car and my dumb cracker ass was just standing around looking stupid.
you should have told your mom to be more considerate.
Wait, my name is Stephen.
If you really are black and Stephen, you would be my photo negative. If it was in a mirror you would be Nehpets.

I am black on the inside
No-one calls me stephen though, they call me by my last name

Only my mom calls me Stephen when she's pissed off at me.
Cheers to a fellow Steve. One of the manliest of names.
