I’m at college. I live in a dorm, and the people on my floor are driving me insane. I really don’t appreciate hearing shouts, screams, and squeals coming from the hallway when I’m trying to work. I really, really don’t appreciate it when it’s 3am and I’m trying to sleep. I’ve tried asking them to keep it down, and it works for a few minutes, but then the volume rises again. :rolleyes:
Dopers and dopers, lend me your revenge fantasies! I promise I won’t carry them out (I have to live with these people for six more months) but I need a good laugh.
I live on an all-girls floor. Too bad it’s also substance-free. If it weren’t, I’d make a point of vacuuming my room at 7am on a Saturday. Mwahahahaha!
You could get a bottle of carbon dioxide and attach a hose to it and slip the other end under the door of the offenders’ room(s). Assuming they were making enough noise, they’d never hear the hissing sound of the gas being released.
Once they passed out, you could play any practical joke you like on them: for example, strip them naked and steal every stitch of clothing, bath towels, bed linen, etc., that they own.
You are all lacking in imagination, but you have taken a step in the right direction. You use the gass to knock them out. Then you suspend them from various trees in the Campus grounds. On their back and front you spray paint a letter in such a manner as to recreate some famous song lyrics.
A) you should talk to your RA about the noise, you’re paying good money to live there.
–assuming this is for fantasy only, and that no one locks their doors—
B) Rogaine in their body wash
C) unplug their mini-fridges
D) reset their alarms for 5:23 am
E) remove the leads from their mechanical pencils
F) epoxy their windows open
G) Swap out their nailpolish remover with rubbing alcohol
Someone I know once replaced a roommate’s mattress with shaving cream. Just bought a whole bunch of cans of it, piled it high on the board that had been underneath the mattress, and verrrry carefully replaced the sheets and blankets. Roommate came home from class, threw himself down on the bed as usual, and there was much laughter.
My roommate stole someone’s bed last year. But he deserved it.
Add a bit of super glue to the hinge too. Or super glue the seat to the lid. Or if your feeling real mean, a few drops of super glue on the seat just before your mark sits down.
Earplugs are absolutely essential when living in a dorm. I would have gone absolutely bonkers these past two years if I hadn’t had and used them when necessary.
As far as revenge goes, a friend of mine told me that someone once duct-taped his door shut, using several rolls to get it nice and stuck. He had to find a knife and cut around the door to get in his room. That struck me as absolutely hilarious for some reason.
