Reasons Why You Should Choose Your Roommate for the Next 3 Years Right Now

Issue 87 | September 2026

  • Your boyfriend? He’s not going anywhere. Make a blood pact to live in a K two person studio with him. That’s basically a promise ring and then you know what comes next, sister.
  • I’m sure your friend that chews with her mouth open will change her ways because you’re sensitive to that kind of noise and everyone you know right now is susceptible to changing just for you.
  • I guarantee your experience will be the same as Adults on FX because FUCK your straight friend (hopefully curious) looks like Paul Baker and you’re totally an Anton type.
  • Sleep schedules sync up like periods, so totally don’t worry about your friend that can’t go to sleep until 3 AM without hitting the bong with the windows closed.
  • Girl, everyone sleeps with the lights on!
  • You’re going to start absolutely LOVING your future roommates friends that, to this day, still call you that nickname you got during Playfair, so you’ll compromise and get to know them better only to find out that YES, they are trying to sleep with you even though they totally still have that hometown sweet heart that they consistently FaceTime in your presence, but your future roommate still loves them all the same even though they have Republican tendencies and you’re too scared to bring up abortion around them, but good news: they’ll be in your apartment more than you will.

TRUST ME. You are never going to find anything better than this. It’s time to lock it down.
