Which ones weren't too bad?!?

The ones that were mostly clean and just lacked furniture or wallpaper.


Also, the one with the stuff rigged above the bed gets a pass for DIY-initiative and the fat fluffy white cat on the bed that most people probably didn't even notice; vacuum the carpet and I'm okay with it.

I saw exactly zero that were acceptable. Eeeeeewwwwww.

ShannonKW: About a third of them look like mine. The chair isn't visibly broken or soiled yet. There is a countertop between the monitor and kitchen nook that is usually filled with empty Diet Pepsi cans with the overflow ending up in a mound on the floor below -- perhaps as many as 300-400 cans before they literally get underfoot and I end up having to take 1/2 an hour or so to stomp them flat and haul them out. There's usually a dirty bowl laying around somewhere. The visually worst part of the scene is the floor which is full of trash except for narrow pathways, or when it gets really bad, steppingstone-like vacant spots. The trash is generally clean, being castoff items like shopping bags, wire hangers, empty containers, etc., so it's an eyesore rather than an hygienic hazard, and anyway the the carpet beneath looks worse as it hasn't been cleaned in maybe 3 years.

Oddly, it's only bothersome when I picture how others would see it. I almost never want anyone else in my house, so I have no reason to clean it beyond service calls and periodic efforts to clear away the accumulation for mobility's sake. There is even a sort of peace of mind in knowing that no burglar would take the time to search for valuables there.

That is the saddest and most disheartening thing I have heard in a long while. You should probably look for some mental health assistance before you do get to the place where your hoard resembles the ones in this thread.

dready zim: steamingpile: Gordon Bennett: cryinoutloud: oh god. This is gonna be my son in a few years. Pick any one of them. I was just giving him a lecture about this sort of thing today.

I am sorry to hear of it. I suggest a quiet word from someone to inform him that if he doesn't start to make some serious lifestyle changes right away he'll never have a girlfriend whose name doesn't end in .jpg.

The ones who seem to be living in squats or other forms of abject poverty get a pass. They're merely unfortunate. The ones who are content to live and breathe in a swamp of filth and rubbish are at best pitiful and at worst a firetrap and vermin magnet threatening their entire neighbourhoods.

I don't understand how any male wouldn't know this already, I was never the cleanest person but if I knew I had a female coming over I would always spend a few hours trying to clean up.

Do what we did. Make a facebook account for their room, friend them and their friends and post regular profile pictures and status updates

"I`m feeling so alone, neglected, and dirty"...

Or, if the offending slob lives under your roof, MAKE HIM KEEP IT CLEAN. My words to my grown one: keep it clean or get out and be a slob at your own place. So now I have a nice guest room, and god only knows what their apartment looks/smells like.

Nothing there that a little of this wouldn't take care of.

I salute you, sir.

The really sad thing is that hearing this one comment would probably be the highlight of his month life.

FIFY.

You could buy a large Rubbermaid trash can, put a bin liner in it, and load your cans in there, and when it was full, just take the bag out and recycle. That trash isn't really "clean" as each can has a few drops of soda left that can leave a sticky mess on the counter and floor. But since it is Diet soda, maybe it will not attract roaches, or do roaches also drink aspartame?

I thought you lived on a ship somewhere.

ThrobblefootSpectre: theBigBigEye: Son of a farking biatch, what is wrong with some people?

Honestly I would have say a lot of these people are somewhat mentally ill. I don't mean that offensively. Not retarded or unintelligent, just not well.

This is what care for the mentally ill would be like under Romney.

Fifi Le Pew: ThrobblefootSpectre: McBatt: I just realized the water bottle at the front, and all of the powerade bottles behind the monitor, are all filled with urine.

I would bet it's cigarette butts. A single cigg butt in the water will give it that color after an hour two. But yeah, still gross.

Only problem with that theory ... Powerade is not water. You know he didn't rinse out those bottles and bring water back in them. That is definitely what came out as waste, after consuming the original liquid in the Powerade bottle. And anyway, why put your butts in bottle of water, when you could just snuff them out on your desktop?

Cig butts float too. You'd see them if that's what they were used for.

Max Awesome: This is full-on internet addiction shaping these environments..

LOL great shoop but you can't entirely blame the internet. I have seen tenants with knee deep trash since way before computers went mainstream. Some people just were not raised to clean their rooms as children. Or are mentally ill.

//At least my keyboard isn't covered in diarrhoea

But what about your trash can?

eraser8: All I did was look at the pics...and, now, I feel like I need a shower.

This, oh so much. That was horrifying. I don't understand how anyone could live like that. I have some clutter in my house but filth I cannot tolerate.

Those are not bottles of urine. Those are bottles of water that cigarettes were put out in. Gross, but not as gross as pee bottles.

I had a buddy that liked to spit snuff in Dr.Pepper bottles. He would seriously fill them up all the way up with snuff and saliva before he capped the bottle and started using another one. At one point we finally persuaded him to clean his corner of filth and we found at least a dozen bottles full of snuff juice. In my opinion thats worse than having a few thousand cigarette butts laying around.

ShannonKW: I live in Saudi Arabia

Oh that's right, Afghanistan, right? So how big are the roaches in Afghanistan?

The one with rigged up bed is most likely someone that has had severe injuries so that one is the only acceptable one to me.

Put the monitor on top of the PC instead of that plastic box and you have the setup that I used to check available TV channels and to have a football game on in the background while doing some painting and laying the carpet in the flat I was about to move into.

Ok I will grant u that one. I stand corrected.

GoBadgers: It just goes to show that no matter how decrepit and depressing the surroundings are, once a person is engrossed in the digital experience, neither the environment nor personal hygiene matter.
I try to keep things interesting, if not too cluttered.
[img.photobucket.com image 800x600]

that's not cluttered, that is pure AWESOME. Is that a bass pod (can't tell if it's black or red from the picture) on your desk? Which fender gdec is that?

I have my ancient G4 in my music room, it has my PT LE on it (hate the noise the fans make, mics pick it up big time). Could use the pod 2.0 that i have on permanent loan but prefer to play through my amp. Had a much quieter G5 but the power supply blew up (put computer back in original packaging, awaiting day I can get a new ps without selling a kidney, not sure if it is ever going to happen). My mac mini is dead silent but I'd have to spend 6 hundred dollars for new PT LE and that's not going to happen either. I'm procrastinating moving the mini to the music room, not sure what biblical sign I'm waiting for. No posters at all :(

Love the CD border trim around the top of the walls

Does your son need to be involuntarily committed? If not then it probably has little to do with Reagan, but rather a matter of health insurance. I'm not really a big fan of involuntary incarceration of the borderline mentally ill myself. I take it you don't allow him to live with you?

Somewhere on the 'net is a story w/pics about a large roommate who was disgusting, one of her feats being shiatting the bed and simply covering it with another sheet (not shiat, sheet, I sheet you not).

Some adventurous person can find it and post a link or pics and we can all enjoy them while eating s'mores.

I don't know about where you live, but around here you can't involuntarily commit someone unless they are a threat to themselves or others. An imaginary threat does not count. ("He MIGHT hurt himself.")

Fount it.

Ultra gross. Read at your own risk.

Forty-Two: Yesterday was the first time I've vacuumed my apartment as maintenance, not because I was expecting a guest. I felt like a responsible adult, since usually I let things pile up until I'm hosting something, and then I clean everything all at once.

I've never let my apartment get this disgusting.

After vacuum cleaning my apartment in June, I was surprised to discover that the natural colour of the carpet was beige, and not grey. Evidently, accumulated dust can substantially discolour a surface.

Had my apartment been half as filthy as the cleanest room depicted at the linked site, I would have cleansed it with fire.

This is better (?), a link to the full story.

Consider yourself now doubly warned.

I have that same plate sitting on my desk so I'm really getting a kick out of this thread.

TWX:
I kinda liked that one actually.
Of course I'm strange, I'd be happy to make my home a large cave- I'd probably add walls and segment out rooms, but it'd be interesting to have a semi-unexplored inner chamber past the house, further into the ground.

I'm with you, though I'd prefer one of the "tumbleweed" style houses, I like small hidden spaces though.
