View Full Version : The Reason why I'm up late

My new roommate has a massive snoring/talking in his sleep/making weird noises problem while sleeping. He's woken me up the last week in the middle of the night big snoring streak. (It usually occurs between 3:30-4:00)
Normally, I just try to get to sleep before him, and when he wakes me up, I just kick his bed to wake him up, then run back to bed like nothing happened.
The problem tonight includes the fact that he got to sleep before me, and he seems to have adjusted to the kicking tricked, thus making it useless.
He also likes to keep the room a scorching 90+. He refuses to turn on the fan or open window. So I have to sleep with loud noises all night long while sweating my balls off.

Back to the ipod for now I guess.

Id lose my ****ing mind. I HATE hot temps. HATE. Combine that with loud noises and lack of sleep = dead bodies.
Im up because I had to pick up my gf's sister and her bf from the dealer after the tranny in her Escape blew up in Roseland. After hours of waiting and two AAA tows, over 300 bucks later, we are home and getting ready to go to bed.

Al, I'm slowly waiting for insomnia to kick in. Any lawyers here know if that's a valid defense against a murder charge?
And yes, hot temps suck while trying to sleep.

Hot temps suck no matter what. I would seriously hurt someone. I cannot explain not comfortable I am when it gets hot out.

Your roommate might have sleep apnea (which could kill him if he doesnt get it checked out) Tell him he needs to go see a sleep doctor i used to do the same ****. Martin and my mom (who slept 2 rooms away) couldnt sleep at nite cuz i snored, moaned and kicked in my sleep. found out i had really bad sleep apnea and now I use a CPAP machine and everyone sleeps like a baby lol

I thought he might have sleep Apnea, but violence against a bed post is a much easier answer. And this new roommate and I aren't as close as my last roommate and I.
Edited for wording.

i have had this issue my freshman year, the thing i did was not violence but hilarious, i took his pillow case and used the inside of the pillow case instead of toilet paper after droping the kids off at the pool. Its gross i know, but i hated my roomate freshman year.
I also cooked some cookies for him and put a laxative in all his cookies =D

dont worry about the sleep apnea thing :lol: thats his deal. Wear ear plugs.. like the soft foamy kind you can find at cvs or whatever.. they're WONDERFUL. its just hard to hear you're alarm in the morning, but i used to use them when my roommates were up typing a paper (keyboard drives me nuts when trying to sleep) or a party down the hall.. also works with snoring.

what year escape? my buddy has an 08 and is complaining that the tranny feels like its slipping. he bought a bunch of ford tranny fluid and i think he replaced it. dono if its a problem.
the overall situation sucks. you should tell him/parents/school to consult a sleep doctor or get a new roommate :wink:

I would turn the heat off and open the window all the way while he was snoring. If he tries to say anything, just tell him that if you are gonna be kept up al night you figured you should at least be comfortable

2005. My gf and now my mom have the same car.
My sophmore year, my roommate did something similar. Only he would eat chips in the middle of the night. I would try to hide the laughter.

Use, propel, discharge, spread or conceal, or cause to be used, propelled, discharged, spread or concealed, any human excrement or bodily fluid:
(1) With the intent to have the excrement or bodily fluid come into physical contact with any portion of the body of any other person, whether or not such physical contact actually occurs; or
(2) Under circumstances in which the excrement or bodily fluid is reasonably likely to come into physical contact with any portion of the body , whether or not such physical contact actually occurs.
yeah its illegal to do what you did
Crayface

im going to just add that to the list of things ive done illegal then, that roomate still to this day doesnt know, so i guess what he doesnt know cant hurt him??? i normally would never do this but this guy did numerous things that just made me go off.

If he's snoring and you're uncomfortable with the room as hot as it is, open the window.. If he gets cold he'll wake up (and stop snoring!)

I would be so pissed off. As other said I would just open the window and turn down the thermostat when you wake up from him.
cdacda13

The one problem is, there is no thermostat, the dorms just run hot. So the only way to cool them down is to open a window or turn the ceiling fan on. I'll open the window or turn the fan on, and as soon as I leave the room, he closes it and turns off the fan.
Not a bad idea with the earplugs. I might have a pair somewhere at home.

Open the window when he's sleeping. You could even just leave it open enough so there's a breeze, we do that in my apartment.
(though we'd swear they cut back on the heat this year.. it was 56* in our apartment the other day)

Got a room humidifier? It will add white noise and could help with his snoring.

Get a can of shaving cream, a screw driver and some bags.
1) Cover all your stuff with the bags
2) When he is in there alone, make sure teh door is shut.
3) Quickly stab the shaving cream with the screw driver( don't stab your hand, it hurts) and cover the hole with a finger
4) Proceed to open the door, throw can, close and hold door shut.

Damn, you younger guys are evil.
Maybe today I'll snatch a video or two of his snoring and show it to him.

Buy him a few extra blankets. Then open the window. When he complains, tell him to use the blankets. If that doesn't work, I kind of like the C*** fairy idea someone had earlier.
