From personal experience...

From personal experience, ten ways NOT to impress a future roommate aka ME.

10.)  Do NOT tell me you find bugs and freeze them.  I have flash backs to Nick freezing his bugs next to my frozen bananas.

9.)  Do NOT show up late and walk to two different houses, than decide to call to say you can't find the place.  Nick and I watched this happen tonight.

8.)  Do NOT tell me you stereotyped me before you came - I guess I'm "a neat-freak, paranoid, dumb athlete" because I am a graduate student.  If only you knew me…

7.) Do NOT tailor your answers so you fit the "perfect roommate criteria."  That's just creepy!

6.)  Do NOT leave the door open… it is -15*… SHUT THE DOOR!

5.) Do NOT tell me your glad you don't live right next door to the sheriff's office because they would find your drug stash quicker.  NOT EVEN FUNNY because I BELIEVE YOU!

4.) Do NOT tell me you don't wash your clothes that often because it saves money.  Smelling is NOT cool.

3.)  Do NOT talk to me for an hour.  Then tell me you locked your keys in the car and ask if Subway is close by because you'll call Triple A there.  You sound like an idiot because in the hour you have talked to Nick and I, Triple A could have been here by now!

2.)  Do NOT stare at my chest.  Look me in the face!

1.)  Do NOT tell me about your roommate's sex stories.  I only meet you ten minutes ago.
EARMUFFS!!!!
