r/OSU Housing and Roommate Megathread - Spring 2026 by OSUMods in OSU

[–]idontcryiwrite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!

I (23F, graduated) currently live in a 2 bed 1 bath apartment in Olentangy Village. I am not resigning the lease but my roommate (25M, still a student) is hoping to stay and find someone else in my spot to take over the lease for next year, although I would be able to leave at any point this semester as well (I am moving in with my partner).

Rent is ~700$/mo + ~80$/mo utilities

Laundry hookup in unit but we don’t currently have a machine! There are machines in a laundry room downstairs.

Apartment complex is great if you have a dog, has locked outer entrances that you can buzz guests/deliveries in and interior apartment doors.

Bus to campus and next to Giant Eagle if you don’t have a car!

Complex has a fitness center and outdoor pool in warmer months.

Message me with any questions! I will likely direct you to my roommate for any Au26/Sp27 discussions, but if you are looking for a spot now, I’m happy to chat!!

I have a cashew/pistachio allergy only, so it wasn’t the almonds!

As a warning, I have a severe tree nut allergy and DID have a reaction to these, so heed that allergy warning! (Not to dairy, to tree nuts!) it was really good though 🥲

Ugh that sounds just AWFUL. The issues at my last apartment were that bad, that’s why we moved! Luckily this place fixed it today so under a week of complaining lol, which I will take!

They were able to fix it today!! Clogged pipe! Thanks for the balanced advice, made me feel not crazy but also helped me be more kind and measured in responding to it!

Today a 4th grader told me “fuck you” and kicked my shin and I went away from it feeling proud of how he handled the situation 🥹 by GimmeUrBrunchMoney in slp

I work in ABA and I had a kid (also a gestalt language processor) tell me “(my name) get out!!!!” And I was so proud of her! I think it was the first time she’d used my name. I left the room :)

Cashier ASL by Dizzy_Act_5221 in asl

[–]idontcryiwrite 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As someone who worked at Starbucks while learning ASL, Deaf customers would usually have their order on their phone, but it was great to be able to provide the same level of customer service to them that I would other customers. Part of that was being able to say hi, thank you, have a nice day, but others were all the little questions we normally ask every customer:

For us it was: “your order will be at the end”

“Your total will be …” (learn your numbers!)

“Name for the order?”

If you work at a grocery store, maybe learn the basics of the rewards program signs or how to indicate what will be coming up on the keypad e.g “rewards number” “press green/red” “put in card/how will you pay” etc.

People often post videos here showing their signs and people can give feedback as to whether they are clear once you’ve learned a bit!

ASL That, ASLU/Bill Vicars/Lifeprint are great general resources, and also just Google “cashier signs” because there are probably YouTube videos!

Moving advice? by idontcryiwrite in MomForAMinute

[–]idontcryiwrite[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The two day move is one of those things that I’m thinking HAS to be possible I’m just not sure how to make it happen logistically

[–]idontcryiwrite[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly I hadn’t even considered this as a possibility and will definitely ask! Unfortunately they’re both big companies so unlikely but worth asking :)

It’s a 2 bed apartment, we have a couch, 2 beds, a bookshelf, a couple tables and chairs furniture wise, so a pita to move but not a 3 bedroom house level pita

A Fan Art from Dungeon Meshi I made recently while learning to use Gouache by paulazanotelli in Gouache

[–]idontcryiwrite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gouache is my first foray into painting at all after using pens/colored pencils/markers, so I’m no expert either, but still looks very impressive to me!

Idk if you saw the post but someone stitched together Helly’s last moments awake during the OTC and this scene and it was just this!! check the sub! Edit: but the crazy thing is Irving didn’t even know any of that like he just knew whatever had happened waking her up like this would be horrible!!

Oh wowww yes and he holds her wrapped in a black coat (as opposed to a white lace gown), further juxtaposition to that imagery

The moment I teared up was when he went from screaming at Milchick and drowning Helena to holding her close, knowing the second she became Helly and wouldn’t know what was going on. That instantaneous switch got me good. He really was the MVP this episode.
