My roommate thinks he's entitled to a 'roommate tax' on all my food deliveries.
By @finnok2 · Friends
It started as a joke but now every time I get a rideshare he's waiting for me to open it so he can take a bite or a handful of fries. they says it's just what roommates do.
The full story
ngl it was funny the first few times. but now it's just annoying. i'll come home after a long day and just want to eat my food in peace and he's over my shoulder like a vulture. it's not even about the money or the amount of food, it's just the expectation that he automatically gets a piece of whatever i paid for with my own money. is it that deep? idk but it's lowkey driving me crazy.

@nicokk — start taking a tax on his groceries lol
