“I’m also really chill too, But as you can see from my previous email, I am like a ticking time bomb that sets off when things I don’t like happen to me.”
Anyone who sends an email like this has serious issues and this email should be forwarded to the administration. I certainly wouldn't want to be anywhere near them, much less live with them, and I survived a weird freshman roommate. In today's world, who would be that stupid to use the phrase "ticking time bomb that sets off . . ." especially in a school setting?
I did not express myself well. Here is the propaganda:
Forcing people to reside with people that are different from themselves increases tolerance and respect.
In actuality, the "forcing" part tends to decrease tolerance and respect due to the interference in private life. Instead, programs should encourage, but not force people to live with people who are different.
When I went to college, my foster daughter and 2 step kids (4 different colleges) we filled out forms and they tried to match us up with students with similar likes, dislikes, living habits, etc. I think you are misinformed how colleges handle this situation.
You'll get the top bunk over YOUR desk, yes, THAT will be your desk, and you'll like it. Otherwise you can take your s***** attitude to another dorm, or another country, for that matter.
Signed,
A bigger b**** than you, with the height & weight to back it up

I too am curiously intent on using twatwaffle every chance I get. If anyone thinks that is stupid, well... You are a twatwaffle!
I will need to you speak loudly so my phone can record you. I won't be putting my phone on your desk because then I cant get my texts. I will need to sit on the edge of the third row, and I will need the chair to be made of high-quality leather, no cheap stuff. I don't want anyone to walk in front of me when I am sitting, no matter what. They can go the other way if they need to. I will be getting asked out on Fridays and won't be doing any work then or over the weekend, so DO NOT make anything I will need to do by Monday. I am a super great student, but I can also go apeship.

Exactly. And I don't know about all colleges, but I know I had the choice of rooming with a friend, if I already knew a classmate. I know my niece had the same option 3 years ago at a different school, because she chose to room with a girl she grew up with.

Not all colleges do that. My son's college roommate questionnaire asked if they smoked and/or were ok rooming with smokers. He filled out his form 3 years ago. My daughter selected a living community with international students and there was no additional information asked.
Edited to add - you could select another student as a roommate (if they also select you). But other than that, no matching of likes/dislikes.
She probably needed the biggest medicine cabinet to store her diazepam, latuda and lithium carbonate.
She probably needs her own room with padded walls and all sharp objects removed.
When I was a freshman in college I had 3 roommates and we got along great, none of us were "that guy" but of course that was almost 35 years ago before special snowflakeism.

I asked my husband and he had the same experience 10 years before I went to college. He also had it in other student housing in different training situations. I think its standard, I would guess anything different isn't as common.
