Last week we asked you to tell us your worst housemate stories and it seems like a lot of you have had some really bizarre experiences. So we've combined your best stories with hilarious ones we found online. Here's 13 of the worst housemate stories ever:
1. Nia Frazer (via CT Facebook): Had a housemate who always cooked chicken and left it on a plate for later. One night he got stoned and forgot about it. We refused to throw it out because he would go crazy. He left it for weeks, it's turned completely green and fluffy from mould. He denied it was his. After two weeks we threw it out with the plate...
2. Persephone11185 (via Reddit): 'I had a roommate who thought it was funny to change my alarm clock setting from am to pm at night. Then she'd gaslight me and tell me I must have set it wrong. Every time I would reset it and it would be fine the rest of the week and come Monday it would be switched again. I finally caught her when I woke up one night while she was changing it.
3. Ellen Battles (via CT Facebook): Had a housemate who stole my underwear off my clothes horse every so often and built up quite a nice little collection for herself. Needless to say I moved out.

4. petrilstatusfull (via Reddit): had a roommate who would (attempt to) leave unjustified scathing, passive-aggressive notes for just everyone: our apartment neighbors, cars parked outside, and even our landlady. The kind of notes with overly-polite language, underlines, and randomly capitalized words. Always written in red marker. Always rude enough to get the shit beaten out of her. Always signed from both of us. I spent that year following her around and removing the notes as quickly and quietly as possible.”
5. Roisin Finn (via CT Facebook): I once had a housemate that blared sex and the city all night, she'd shout at Big and scream 'I'm Carrie'' any time we tried to watch with her.
6. LoooveCommando (via Reddit): I had a roommate in college who could only fall asleep if he watched Disney movies at night. I had to listen to them every night for hours trying to sleep. And I now hate the Lion King with the passion of a thousand burning suns.

7. Eva Doyle (via CT Facebook): I had a 15-stone housemate on the 3rd floor that dealt with her insomnia by tap dancing.
8. Graphitetshirt (via Reddit): He drank my contact lens solution because he thought it was drugs. The whole bottle. A big bottle. Not only did he not figure it out while not being remotely high halfway through a fucking pint of lens solution, if it had been drugs, he would've died a lot.
Bonus idiocy: Also claimed he invented lettuce wraps

9. Jody Coffey (via CT Facebook): I lived with this really weird girl who had a huge bun and nicknamed herself Princess Dildo
10. krukson (via Reddit): He was leaving dirty plates in his bed, covered with his sheets. When he was going to sleep, he just kicked the plates and didn't bother to clean them.
11. Margarita O. Buyukli (via CT Facebook): My ex-housemate put maggot larvae in my opened ham packet in our shared fridge.
12. dreamlite (via Reddit): The very first weekend of my Freshman year in college, my roommate comes back from a party at like 2 AM or whatever, and proceeds to vomit on my fucking desk, which did contain my laptop computer on it...
13. Ericka Ylönen (via CT Facebook): Went to take a shower and my roommate locked me out. I only had my towel and shampoo bottles on me.
