I drink his milk.

I eat his left over sausages...and i just finished off his last 6 pack.

My housemate is a push over.

Got me thinking...are you the dead weight or are you the fella that carries the team.

I tell myself im doing it for his own good as he needs to toughen up. And the beating he gives me when he snaps will be character building for him.

So, worst or good stories of share accomodation. From the French girl in Biarritz, to the hooker who wanted to cook breakfast to...

first house I lived in after moving out was a house with 6 other people, I was definalty the dad of the house.. also the youngest, go figure, but I had to keep everyone in line, and no one touched anything of mine, or ate any of my food lol.. I definatly am not a push over to live with.. after that place though I have lived on my own cos I cant stand having to look after other people that are my own age or older

Yeah I'm usually the dad. Get's annoying after a while. I lived in a house in Cairns that had between 5 and 12 people at any one time.

One time one housemate asked to borrow my drill. I said yeah ok but put it away when you've finished with it cos you know what will happen if *Pablo gets a hold of it.

So anyway, I'm arriving home from work that night. Walking up the stairs to the back door. Just as I'm about to grab the door handle I hear a BZZZZ and a drill bit comes out through the middle of the door!

I open the door and there is Pablo with the drill in his hand laughing manically and giving the drill little revs.

I took it off him. Turns out he drilled about 15 holes in various doors and walls in the house.

Is that the kind of story you were after Troy? Or should I tell you about the time that I questioned 3 of the other 4 housemates about some filth and since they all denied it when the 4th one came home I got stuck right into him. Turned out he hadn't been home for 4 days and one of the others had lied to me. I was very embarrassed.

* His real name.

my old flat mate (my best mate) has 2 blonde 18year old twin sisters..

suffice to say i used to push and push him..

its was great i could just about say anything about them, but if any of our other mates said a word he'd crack the shites at them

gotta love it..

i guess i'm a pushover to live with

my housemates an idiot...eats and drinks wateva he can find, doesn't clean up sh*t.....well, he does occasionally bout once a month to his credit...

worse thing he done was use the money i gave him for bills for drugs to the point of telstra cutting our internet and phone bill!!

sometimes i don't even know why i live there....location and great apartment i guess.

This is the first place i've lived with outta home and i've been out 6 months - anyone got some pointers on keeping the bastard in line?

I once woke up on the lounge with my housemates girlfriends underwear on my head.

Thankfully they thought it was funny when they woke up to see me passed out in the lounge in a real state. My mate who stayed over thought it was funny as after i fell asleep he saw them in the bathroom.

I have to say, i sont have my regular Friday night drinks after work anymore so a lot of my bad behaviour was left at my last place...poor old Kim :rolleyes:

I have some horror stories.

My first house I moved into was horrible. It was a young people project housing. The lead tenent was an intern at Torana and he would bring "boys" back with him for weekend stays. They would sleep in his room and it creeps me out when I think about it now. But the other housemates were wierd too. This was housing for people from messed up homes, mine wasn't , it was just REALLY cheap rent $15/week inc bills. So the deaf guy was into tranny porn. And the other guys was a cleptomanic and serial liar. He (the thief) decided to take the deaf guys bank book and clean out the account. $5k later... Not cool. Deaf guy would eat all our food though so we figured it was ok.

Then I shared a house with this one girl and this was when karma kicked me in that ass.

She was nice to start with, good greek girl doing year 12 and she had the whole world ahead of her. Good family, nice friends, job at Coles not that great but a job none the less. Then she tried weed. I started to watch the downward spiral. So depressing really. She would miss classess here and there, then a few shifts, then she would have late parties and so on. Some wierd stories out of it though.

- I come home to 20 people in my living room smoking weed. Someone had thrown up on the floor and no one cleans it. It stays this was for 3-4 day until I _made_ her clean it. I really had to push her to clean it too!

- Dishes won't be done for about a week. I try to get her to clean them and in her best drugged f**ed voice "Dishes are like your friends man, you can't MAKE them do anything, they will just get done and you know, it will happen sooner or later" I pointed out to her dishes are not living objects, they will not do them selves but it they stay that way much longer, they may very well be. They got done after that. But it was still a constant issue. I'm not super clean myself but a week is just gross.

- All my food would get eaten bec of the munchies so I learnt to live on coffee and ciggies. and chicken rolls for the 7-11.

- I came home to the house and the whole places smells like YSL Jazz. I know I had a bottle that was full so I check it and it's empty! Turns out her friends snooped around my room and threw it everywhere. nice! Confronted her about it and "I'm not responsible for my friends, man" She f***ing well was so I ended up making her pay.

- She never payed any bills so I took the phone into my room and locked it in there (I got locks on the doors after the previos issue) one day her friend calls at about 3am. I tell him to not call as she can't use the phone and it's 3 am. 20 minutes later he throws an iron bar threw my window.... nice.

- She ends up hooking up with some guy that can't read or write and I have no idea what happened to her. I have no doubt she is junkie and I'm sure if drove around St Kilda at 11pm she is out there working. Or she is dead.

Oddly enough, she is the reason I hate weed. Every other drug I'm cool with, just not weed.

Hmm bad house mates...

I've had a few

first one was a feminist vegetation arts student (I was fresh off the farm doing engineering) lets say a few personality clashes.

next was PMS girl. once a month you would arrive home to her in a ban bag eating chocolate watching day time TV...and looking for a fight.

porn fetish boy. Now a bit of porn is fine but when he had hundreds of such titles, a vcr, a vcd and a DVD player all queued to his fav section, a trip once a year to Thailand for stress relief.

and druggie...who died of a drug OD, arrived home from work at midnight to have to face the cops..

lets just say I live alone now

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
