Maybe it was you. Maybe it was a friend of yours. Maybe it was a friend of a friend of a friend with a four foot bong. The fact is, every single person on Earth knows someone who, between the ages of 18 and 25, lived in an apartment with…
1.
A coffee table that is absolutely filled to the brim with random trash:
2.
Complete with crusty ol’ weed from an undetermined amount of time ago…
3.
…a burned-out ocean-themed scented candle that doubles as an ashtray…
4.
… an old Domino’s box from AT LEAST two weekends ago:
5.
And, of course, at least one random video game controller standing alone in the midst of the chaos:
6.
A living room with a couch that looks like it’s had a lifetime supply of asses sit on it…
7.
…generally with some dude who doesn’t live there crashing on it at like 2 PM:
8.
Next to that is one singular “good chair” that seemed to be the sole domain of one dude:
9.
And a patio chair that’s secretly the best seat in the house:
10.
The decorations must be either a random flag hung on the wall…
11.
…or a bunch of old beer cases delicately secured to the wall with electrical tape:
12.
There’s always a copious amount of empty liquor bottles on top of the kitchen cabinets…
…next to several jugs of protein powder that no one can reach without climbing on the counter:
13.
The fridge needs to have basically nothing in it except for some beer and an expired pack of chicken:
14.
And a gallon of milk with exactly THIS much left shoved way into the back:
15.
The kitchen also has to have a sink piled full of “somebody else’s” dishes:
16.
A full roll of paper towels directly next to an empty roll:
17.
And a garbage can that looks like the world’s stickiest game of Jenga:
18.
Inside the bathroom there’s always a toilet paper roll with either a mere sliver of TP left…
…or a full roll nestled on top of an older roll:
19.
The bathroom sink should also be completely filled hairs of undetermined origin:
20.
And the bathtub must have a very similar hairy vibe:
21.
No bathroom is complete without a razor in the shower that no one has used in months and is quickly becoming a tetanus hazard:
22.
A bottle of 3-in-1 shampoo-conditioner-mouthwash that’s been half full since freshman year:
23.
And, of course, a bar of soap with one single pube on it:
24.
Finally, under no circumstances can there be any hand towels in the bathroom. You have to use a damp, musty shower towel to dry your hands:
25.
Every bedroom has a mattress pushed into the corner with absolutely no bed frame:
26.
A bed sheet taped to the wall in lieu of a curtain:
27.
And blinds that are out here fighting for their LIFE:
28.
Lastly, no early 20-something’s apartment is complete without a smoke detector that either is unplugged or has been beeping for weeks:
