Here’s a friendly reminder not to make assumptions about your roommates; that is, unless you want to find yourself in some deep trouble like this woman. Look, we’re only human, and sometimes we make assumptions when we don’t even realize that we’re making assumptions. It’s also inevitable that your roommate will do things that will annoy you. That’s simply part of the reality of sharing space with someone. However, if you’re going to talk smack about your roommate, consider making sure that you’re home alone first, even if you’re speaking in a different language.
That’s because this woman learned the hard way that her roommate was also fluent in Spanish and understood every single word that was spoken (and these were some mean-spirited remarks!). The roommate shared her side of the story via this thread on Reddit’s r/pettyrevenge subreddit, and there are plenty of petty things she could have done in return. She could have called her own Mom and said the exact same things about her roommate in Spanish, which was one of our favorite suggestions from a Redditor in the comments section. Instead, OP decided to walk right into her roommate’s room and speak to her in fluent Spanish. Either way, the reveal is iconic, and we wish we could have been a fly on the wall when this exchange was going down.
