I think you need to contribute to [this thread on passive aggression.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=591403) And then have an honest, adult conversation with your roommate, wherein you articulate your concerns re: his downward spiral. As for his room, well, that’s… **his** room. He can be a lazy slob in there all he wants, as long as cockroaches aren’t taking up residence. ---

Be careful he doesn’t break your weed-smoker-breaker. ---

Caring about your friends is cool and all, but breaking their things is the work of a baby-maker head. ---

You’re hearts in the right place, but probably not a great idea. For me occasional use is really nothing, but chronic use (of the chronic) is not acceptable behaviour. ---

You’re a fool if you think breaking his “smoker” (whatever that is) is going to stop him from smoking. There’s about a million different ways to get a fix–or so I’ve been told. He’ll be pissed that you broke it (and I sure hope it wasn’t a vaporizer) and then he’ll make a bong out of an apple and promptly forget about it. ---

Making a bong out of vegetable matter is better reserved for something like a pumpkin, which can hold more water. Um, not that I would know that from first hand experience. ---

Halloween party, 1998. Someone made a smallish pumpkin into a bong and drew a jack o’lantern face on it. High times were had all around. ---

Hey, **PSXer** , why don’t you come back and tell us how it went? We’re all ears, but personally, I think you’re full of shit and won’t return. ---

PSXer, if that was a weed smoker, then doesn’t that make you a weed whacker? PS- When you whacked it, did it go “bong”?
