You see, because he's an idiot, he has the power cable wrapped around his headboard and behind his pillow.

...WHY?!

I mean aside from the part where he's an idiot. Did he provide any explanation for that particular idea?

[Frumple]

Ha, meant after the students left. They'd fine yer arse for leaving a mess in the ones I stayed in, but they still sent folks in between semesters to make sure things were straightened out and they were under the general maintenance department stuff. Replacements were 'cause stuff broke due to no fault of our own.

... and yeah, echo Siri. Dude want to start a fire or something? Maybe have to cover the cost of a replacement? Eesh.

No.

Appalachian's policy is that neatness and cleanliness are lifestyle choices that students are left to self-determine. Nobody from the University enters the rooms except to confirm that we do not have any banned items, and hiding any banned items is trivial because their inspection times are posted.

It's a liberal campus, regulations on students are few and far between.

About the same where I was at, really. They'd come in a couple times a semester to check for fire hazards (kinda' important, 'cause the way the sprinklers were set up if one went off most of them would, dumping enough [stagnant] water into the rooms to basically ruin goddamn everything. Or at least that's the line they fed us. No one was stupid enough to risk thousands upon thousands of water damage fines landing on their head, amazingly.) and, like, infestations and illegal crap but that was about it beyond AC filter changes.  'Bout the largest "imposition" I remember was related to alcohol if you were rooming with someone underage or fire hazard related stuff.

But yeah, leaving the place a mess carried a fine if you just dipped after the semester was over and left stained everything and ruined furniture and such.

Four year old just told me he needs help with something.  I ask him what he needs.  "umm... you need to do stuff... with things..."

It sounds like he's massively intelligent, and has not only grasped that the world can't go on the way it is, but also that he is incapable of changing anything and SalmonGod is his only recourse.

Poor kid doesn't know the words "tab" and "slot" yet, and doesn't know how to explain that he needs help with the furniture he secretly ordered from IKEA.

This whole conversation. I cried with laughter, silently yet vigorously. I'm not even sure quite why I found it so amusing, but I did.

Maybe you can get him kicked out on grounds of creating a biohazard? Having sparks on a bed is asking for trouble, too, btw.

Obvious fire hazards certain seem like something you should report. Unless you want all your stuff (and maybe you too) to go up in flames.

This. Of all the things colleges take seriously, they take fire safety most seriously of all.
Fires:
1. can cause millions in damage to big housing complexes
2. can cause millions in property damage to students' belongings
3. cause risk to students
4. screw up all their plans for student housing for a year or more
5. bring scrutiny of fire plans/fire code from the outside

Basically it makes college administrations' lives hell, whether or not they are found responsible. It's arguably worse if they aren't found responsible; in those cases, it would be the roommate responsible's problem to pay for property damage. And I would be willing to bet he doesn't have $10 million in the bank for such occasions.

The fridge issue, while annoying, won't result in anything. The obvious fire hazard will.

I think it ended for me with the comments section. As most of my remaining considerations for humanity usually do.

It's the Daily Fail. What did you expect?

[Karnewarrior]

To be fair, the guy does sort of look like Obama.

Then again, I highly doubt the guy also looks like SATAAAAAAN. Wasn't Satan supposed to be the most beautiful of angels? Therefore, if Satan looked like a president, he would look like the most beautiful of presidents... Now to figure out who that is

But that's not possible. If that were true, than Satan would be....Bill "Morningstar" Clinton.

My god. How did we miss it all this time?

It's a UK rag...I guess I kinda figured it'd be better than its American counterparts.

Chester A. Arthur. Dat 'stache.
