re: Funny College Roommate Stories?

my buddy and I decided to live together in the engineering dorm at lsu. we get set up and it has us rooming together on the 3rd floor

we decide to use my buddy's recent back surgery as an excuse to get moved to the first floor. he puts in the request with no issues. several weeks later I get a message from a guy (lets call him Bill) that says "sup roommate?" I was like wtf and pulled up the dorm website. sure enough, it shows me with Bill on the 3rd floor, and my buddy with someone else (lets call him Stephen) on the 1st floor. long story short, we cancelled the room change request and got put back together on 3rd floor, while Bill and Stephen were on the 1st floor

turns out the Stephen has some Stephen Hawking-like physical disability. he walked funny and his legs were locked in place like he was skiing or something - half squat with his knees together. he rode around campus on a segway-type thing and was recognized for it.

I ended up meeting Bill a few times and he was a good guy, think he was Kappa Sig. Turned out Stephen was a huge prick - super rude, never took showers, never cleaned..total slob. Bill always cursed me in jest but he probably really meant it What a long, shitty year for that poor bastard. My buddy narrowly dodged a bullet from that Stephen Hawking mf
