AITA for telling a girl to stop wasting food?

'All of your friends told you not to say something': College student asks 'AITA?' for questioning woman's cafeteria habit

One college student took to Reddit to ask if she was in the wrong for a cafeteria eating disagreement, and she probably didn't expect that people would end up calling her a bully!

And of course, at many colleges, this is the main or only dining option — you can't just avoid the cafe. One OP posted to r/AmITheA******…

Motel bathrooms are basically a receptacle for all human excretions and it's not always cleaned (or nuked?) appropriately. However, for one non-discriminating foodie has combined the horrors of motel bathrooms with the culinary arts, building his entire social media platform on creating elaborate recipes…

'I have a roommate that says she only needs to brush her teeth once a week on Sunday': 30+ People who ratted out their worst roommates ever

You never really know a person's quirks and habits fully until you've lived with them. For these poor roommates , it's too late! They're already stuck living with a person who is convinced that they're doing everything right, and their roommate is the one interfering, actually. I've had wonderful luck with roommates in my own life, they all were normal and clean (great qualities in a cohabitator).

'I read the book and I'm still gay': Man recalls how he accidentally came out to his ultra conservative college roommates via voicemail from the bookstore

The 90's was such a wild time. Everyone had an answering machine and voicemails were recorded then straight up broadcast in your home, spouting your business out loud to everyone within earshot and that was just a normal, accepted thing. An answering machine wouldn't be a problem if you lived alone, but the moment you live with other people, you share your voicemail (on your land line of course). There's no privacy there. One man, who lived in a big house of dudes when he was a college freshman…

Clever college chick gets revenge after being told to stop walking around braless by a jealous girlfriend after receiving unwanted attention

Dorm life is a double-edged blade of debauchery and dissonance (cool D&D item name, by the way). That's what happens when you cram a bunch of barely post-adolescent young adults -who have never taken care of themselves on their own- into close-quarters living conditions. It's like a poorly optimized training simulator for adulthood. Some of us were too focused on video games to learn any real lessons from this time of our lives… but we all got there at some point.
