Snoring Roomate

For the fourth consecutive night now... it is 4 am and my roomate at college is snoring louder than I have ever heard anyone snore in my life. I can't take it anymore. How the fuck do I fix this short of actually telling him that he needs to shut the fuck up?

Wake him up.

That should do it.

-edit

And give him a box of Breathe-Right strips.

shit in his mouth.

I had two shitty roommates my freshman year. Changing rooms midway through the year did not help. I lucked out last year, and this year, though I was unlucky enough to be stuck on campus, I finally got a single.

Have you told him that his snoring's a problem? Maybe he doesn't know about it. You could maybe convince him to use those nose strip things, but I don't know if they work. Never had to deal with someone who snored too loud, but my ex would fart in her sleep sometimes and that used to keep me up laughing. I guess that was a different kind of problem though.

Anyway, get earplugs. The Quiet! Please ones from Flents are great for sleeping because they're soft and you get a ton in a box so it's no big deal if you lose them, but they can be reused, assuming you're not some kind of filthy shit monster who never uses q-tips. If only I had the good sense to do that when I had the gay roommate who sang Mariah Carey in the middle of the night. Instead, I just took obscene amounts of Nyquil and went into mini-comas, and then slept til my 4:00 classes. I could do that two days a week and on the weekends and it was wonderful. I understand this is not an option for everyone.

Haven't said anything to him yet. I dunno, I feel awkward seeing as it isn't something he intentionally does. I think I'll try getting ear plugs. This is just crazy though. I didn't know people could snore this loudly. How does his own noise not wake him up?

He's sleeping really deeply. Go through his stuff.

$4000 worth on manga (no exaggeration)? No thanks.

I'm willing to bet morphix would pay a hefty sum for this stash of manga.

Strike while the iron is hot and such.

Not a bad idea but the fucker has to wake up in 2 hours for work. I don't see Morphix getting me my money that quickly...

AND HOLY SHIT AS I TYPE HE JUST WOKE UP!

I'm a bad snorer. Ask him about it. It's the only way. Nothing you can do by yourself can really fix it.

Tell him to sleep on his side, or at least start sleeping on his side. It also could be sleep apnea too.
