My roommates actually stopped talking to each other for three days because one of them was pouring water into a glass and a little bit spilled onto the floor. A full-blown argument broke out in the kitchen, with people shouting about respect and boundaries all over a simple glass of water. It was so awkward that I just hid in my room and didn’t come out until evening.

I recently landed my first full-time job and thought I’d finally struck it rich, but “buy now, pay later” apps completely broke me in just three months. I split a few $40 purchases into installments, thinking it was no big deal, and then suddenly half my paycheck started automatically disappearing on payday for random things I barely remember buying.
