Shared House Etiquette
October 13th, 2008
Following on from a post earlier this year entitled “You know when you’re living in a shared house when…” I’ve had some further thoughts on the whole house sharing thing. Well, I say some further thoughts - more like one big lurking brown thought. As you may know I’m now living in another shared house - but this time with a bunch of guys and gals I didn’t really know before I moved in. I’d say I was quite lucky in this respect - everyone has been awesome.
But, I’ve just been to answer a call of nature and someone had left a rather large brown gift waiting for me. Despite 4 flushes, it refuses to budge - so I’m unsure what to do. What’s the etiquette for this kind of situation. I mean, I know it’s not mine, but it bloody stinks. Should I try an tackle it with a spoon? Give it a few more flushes? Or just leave it for the next unsuspecting person, who may or may not the owner of said object? Who knows - if you do - please comment with suggestions asap as I’m likely to have nightmares about what I like to call the “Lid Lifter”.
Thanks!
