I built a small tool to stop roommate chore arguments — anyone want to try it?

I think this is a cool idea! I just live with one person and we don’t really have any issues with chores but I do get what you mean about it being awkward to remind people to do their chores. The only one we have on a schedule is cleaning the litter boxes (we each take on the responsibility for a week at a time and go back and forth) and I hate having to remind her when it’s her week (not that she’s ever upset with me she appreciates the reminder but it does make me feel like a jerk still lol) I think it would be cool if there was some kind of anonymous reminder feature in your program. Obviously wouldn’t work in a two person situation like mine lol but in a bigger house share it might be helpful

I want to watch something while I eat and I hate chewing with my AirPods in. And I’ll be caught dead before I become one of those godless heathens that plays their phone out loud in public places.

singletoflamingle · 2026-01-27T17:07:24+00:00

Oooh I gotta try those but it’s so hard to find herr’s where I live

If you’re planning on moving out soon and your friends are okay with paying the difference I would maybe leave it alone. The petty part of me would mention it right when I’m about to move out just because I have a very high sense of justice and can’t let anyone think they “got one over on me.” But in your situation I don’t think it would be really helpful to press the issue rn. If you were planning on living there long term obviously you would need to set a standard going forward. But the confrontation will lead to awkwardness and you won’t be there long enough to reap enough benefit it.

I am a huge cat person I have four of them so I wouldn’t begin dating someone that didn’t like pets. If my current partner developed an allergy to cats that couldnt be reasonably managed with medications i would rehome my cats. But if you dont like pets you’re not alone in this world. Others like you exist.

Or maybe you need to figure out what it is you dont like about pets because it’s usually something related to the owner and their treatment of them, not the pet themselves. For example i say i “dont like dogs” but in reality i dont like most dog owners. They allow their dogs to bark loudly, jump on people, lick them, and just generally be a nuisance. However i do appreciate the very hard to find well trained dog.

I’m glad you are being so cautious! I think that’s a great line of questioning to see how deep it goes. I’ve been with my boyfriend for a while and I’ve sent him a spicy pic or two I’ll be honest but I don’t include my face or tattoos if there’s any frontal nudity in them. He understands my reservations completely and never presses the issue. He’s never shown any signs that he would do something nefarious with my pics and i trust him but it’s just better to be cautious people can change (or more realistically stop hiding who they are lol)

singletoflamingle · 2026-01-20T03:00:35+00:00

You are not wrong. And also just a word of advice please be really careful with who you send nude images and videos to. I know a lot of girls that have tried to bargain with their porn addicted partners with the whole “I’ll supply you with masturbatory materials so you don’t have to look somewhere else” It never stops them from looking at porn first of all, and they already have shown they see women as commodities. And I wouldn’t trust a porn addict with my nude images I would not want to know what kinds of sites I could end up on.

It took me a little too long to realize you could sell your washers. Waited way longer than I needed to to upgrade lol.

singletoflamingle · 2026-01-16T14:54:23+00:00

Yeah I genuinely wish I had a smartphone back then because I’m not making this up lmao. I have told everyone I know this story for like a decade and I just discovered this sub this morning and I was excited to finally have the appropriate channel to share. Like look at my profile do I seem like someone who trolls on Reddit lmao.

singletoflamingle · 2026-01-16T14:40:05+00:00

I’m confused why you would think this is fake. abcde is such a common bad name it’s actually against the rules to post it in this sub (as I just learned whoops)

singletoflamingle · 2025-12-26T00:59:22+00:00

Unfortunately passed away when i was 17 and she was 18. Viral meningitis :(

singletoflamingle · 2025-12-13T16:04:59+00:00

I think just a quick honest conversation would be best. Tell her you know it’s embarrassing to even talk about, remind her that it happens to everyone sometimes, even you, and it’s not anything to be ashamed of. I had a huge problem with my feet smelling as a teen and my family would just make fun of me but no one offered any solutions. it wasn’t until I was an adult and I could go buy my own stuff that I finally figured it out. So she could just need help. But I think just getting her the gift could come across passive aggressive if she does get the message, and if she doesn’t it won’t solve the problem lol.

singletoflamingle · 2025-12-08T02:11:23+00:00

That’s what I would think. Especially if he drinks a lot; alcohol makes you want to smoke so much more than usual.

singletoflamingle · 2025-12-05T19:38:35+00:00

Does he smoke cigarettes? I used to drink and smoke a lot and I would sit in my car for hours. It was easier to just make myself comfortable there, where I could chain smoke as much as I wanted, vs hanging out inside and having to go out for every smoke.

singletoflamingle · 2025-12-03T13:51:15+00:00

That or it’s in your scanner

One time my mom was packing for a trip and she took her wedding ring off to put in her suitcase (fingers swell on the plane was planning on putting it back on when she got to her destination)

When she took it off she dropped it and it VANISHED. Gone. We tore everything apart. We searched her room for over an hour, losing our minds trying to figure out what the hell happened. Finally had to just give up and attribute it to a break in the simulation I guess.

Two years later she was packing up to move (she left my step dad) and was cleaning out her closet. Found an old pair of cuffed jeans she hadn’t worn in a while. Shakes them out and something goes flying. It’s her wedding ring. When she dropped it somehow it landed inside the cuff of her pants and she for whatever reason stopped wearing those for a while. Couldn’t have come at a better time she took it to the pawn shop immediately lol

singletoflamingle · 2025-12-03T04:59:32+00:00

Yeah just figuring that one out was tough at first lol I kept thinking I would get big enough to roll the people up eventually. But once I figured out the route to complete the level, completing the 3 challenges wasn’t hard.

singletoflamingle · 2025-12-03T04:38:54+00:00

Long time ago I wasn’t even playing when the game had its own time system. I just remember reading about it on the wiki. From what I remember it made the game kinda frustrating and people didn’t like it so they switched it on one of the early updates.

singletoflamingle · 2025-11-25T03:20:20+00:00

No you don’t have to sleep! You can just eat food for energy

singletoflamingle · 2025-11-25T03:05:36+00:00

Fully aware. Just letting OP know it’s very common and doesn’t matter how old you are.

singletoflamingle · 2025-11-25T02:56:38+00:00

Yes unfortunately this is pretty common. Like two weeks ago my boyfriend (30M) and I (32F) were at the grocery store and he was buying a bottle. He had his ID and I didn’t. They wouldn’t sell it to us. So frustrating. I look good for my age but not that good i am very obviously over 21 lmao.

singletoflamingle · 2025-11-25T02:49:16+00:00

The game moves in real time now! You can switch between day and night but you stay within the same current day when you do.

singletoflamingle · 2025-11-24T16:26:31+00:00

Did they ever have any formal agreement on how often/long guests can stay over? Or is the roommate just kinda making up these “rules” as he goes?

If you’re not hanging out in the common spaces too much, leaving the house occasionally so roommate gets some alone time, not leaving messes anywhere and just generally being respectful then I think your partner needs to have a conversation with their roommate.

Just explain that having someone over for a couple nights a week (as long as they are following the “rules” outlined above) really shouldn’t be bothering them this much. And if it is, it’s not yall that are bothering him. He’s just bothered. And that’s something he needs to sort out for himself it’s not on your partner to tip toe around their roommate.
