Any city-dweller will tell you that finding that right apartment is the toughest thing in the world. You’ve sublet-hopped through Craigslist or lived with friends of friends of friends and finally found that perfect apartment with the passable roommate. Then a month passes and the bloom is off the rose. Warning signs start popping up and you’ve realized you’ve made a big mistake. To help you recognize them, we’ve categorized the top 10 best (or worst) reasons you need to move now.
1.
You’re watching “Breaking Bad” and your roommate says, “Ah, this brings back memories.”
2.
You’ll lose your deposit if your roommate implements his zombie defense system.
3.
The creepy guy who hangs outside keeps telling you you have a “purty mouth.”
4.
The broker wasn’t kidding about that Indian burial ground.
5.
The wild young twins who moved into 237 aren’t what you expected.
6.
You can’t afford the $5,000 containment fee anymore.
7.
The guy on the couch now has squatter rights.
8.
Your roommate’s parents stopped supporting her.
9.
Your actor roommate finally got a gig, but now the cat’s covered in blue paint.
10.
Because a Lannister always pays his debts, but is frequently late with the rent.
