5. It shows
Your nostrils have never flared at the smell of Jock urine. You've never watched a couple slip on human fecal material on an elevator. You poor deprived soul! ;)

4. Pay it all in pennies
I lived in a ground level residence hall freshman year. Most of the people who pissed and vomited in the hall were drunken little boys who lived upstairs coming home from a night of wild partying. Once this was clear to the administration they never billed us for the damage.

If I were you I'd pay it in pennies, and get your hallmates to do the same. Legally they have to take it and if they have to deal with thousands of pennies every semester, they'll get the message.

6. Ha!
That's diabolical! :evilgrin:
Man, I'm a Junior I should have thought of that by now! Well, I'll have to lead my freshmen on a bit of a children's crusade if you will!

7. Dorm life used to be great...
Then the life of the party flunked out of school, and the dorm is boring as shit now.

8. You gotta MAKE dorm life interesting.
Pull crazy elaborate pranks on the people you're cool with. Or, failing that, get wasted on Thursday. :-)

I've managed to keep dorm life interesting by spending as little time in the dorms as I can.
