'I Want the Desk near the Window. Plain and Simple': Student who calls herself 'A Ticking Time ...
The Daily Mail (U.K.) ^ | September 13, 2016 | Aimee Brannen

Friendship is unlikely to blossom in one university dorm room this semester after one of its occupants sent an aggressive list of demands to her roommates before even meeting them.

The message, sent by a UCLA freshman known only as Ashly, was shared by one of its two recipients on Twitter in a post which has now been seen by thousands.

One of Ashly's new roommates, 17-year-old Winnie Chen, an aspiring make-up artist from Los Angeles, took to the social media site after being left in total shock by the email which, she says, was sent because Ashly's earlier messages hadn't drawn a response for a couple of days.

Snowflake Chen should just make her new roommate’s life a living hell.

Take up smoking? Leave all your clothes on the floor? This is really easy. Come in at 0130 and collapse on the bed. Get up at 0700 and turn on the radio as you go to the shower...I suggest Bob&Tom or John-Boy*&Billy.

Grow up!

So these are the incoming students at ucla. Read their e-mails - their grammar is terrible.

“an aspiring make-up artist...”

You need to go to UCLA for that?

Some people have a real ghetto attitude, and it obviously has nothing to do with skin color.

Wow, that sounds just like the moron I was stuck with for a term. I transferred schools and as a junior ended up in a freshman dorm. It’s amazing what two years of maturity makes. This kid I got stuck with had apparently never spent a night away from mom and dad.

Within a couple weeks he had taken up smoking in our non-smoking dorm, got wasted drunk often, once even aspirating his vomit, hung porn up all over the walls on his side of the room and all kinds of other stuff.

I moved off-campus as soon as I could. I heard he flunked out by second term and frankly, didn’t care. I can’t even tell you his name.

Please take me back to a time before social media where things like this didn’t make national newspapers.

This may be a good thing. People are now on notice to give this “ticking time bomb” a wide berth. If it were me, I would not room with her or have any further contact with her.

Whatever happened to just throwing a Mary Kay party?

If you are going to slap rouge on someone in a beauty shop no. If you are going to make a career in the movies or TV then yes.

“If you are going to make a career in the movies or TV then yes.”

Seems like you’d still be better served working for four years in indie movies and having something on your resume than wasting four years at UCLA.

"Ticking time bomb."

Sounds like someone's future ex-wife, alimony, child custody divorce from hell.

What ever you do don’t microinvalidate her.

Geez. I hated my first roommate (and left at the end of the semester) because he never bathed and slept in old newspapers. I guess I was just too sensitive.

You would think but even in the movies they will not look at you unless you have a degree.

It is silly but what can you do.

Cletus, what was your dorm room - the local public park?
