20. I came back to my college apartment....

…and found that my roommate was boiling her underwear in a spaghetti pot in the kitchen. I moved out the next day, no questions asked. I feel for these students who were subjected to this! They had it much worse.

Somewhere other than a college dorm kitchen, as a general rule. Paladin Sep 2025 #13
My question was more about "sanitation laws" than the specificity of a dorm. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2025 #17
AFAIK most people do this partly in the field and outside at home, but not in a kitchen which is not their property ... eppur_se_muova Sep 2025 #28
"not in a kitchen which is not their property" -- again, my question is more about "sanitation laws." WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2025 #35

Once you've field-dressed it, it's just raw meat. If you've skinned it, you won't smell anything but raw meat. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2025 #37

It was a wild animal--Not in a shared/communal kitchen. Parse each word in that sentence. Hekate Sep 2025 #66

The hell with that. No Cornell student is starving. This was way out of line. Dock_Yard Sep 2025 #19
Does a person have to be starving before hunting is okay? WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2025 #36
The point: It's not OK to bring a carcass into a shared public area. Dock_Yard Sep 2025 #58
It's how they "processed" it that's a problem. Farmer-Rick Sep 2025 #31

If you eat meat - something died DenaliDemocrat Sep 2025 #56
I do happen to be a vegetarian, but beside that point Coventina Sep 2025 #57
It is NOT a dirty job DenaliDemocrat Sep 2025 #59
According to the article, the carcass was brought to be skinned Coventina Sep 2025 #60
In YOUR opinion DenaliDemocrat Sep 2025 #61
Well, there were plenty of people upset by their actions, so your opinion is not universal. Coventina Sep 2025 #62
And there are plenty like me DenaliDemocrat Sep 2025 #64
Well, maybe you should contact Cornell, if you feel so strongly. Coventina Sep 2025 #65
I'm not the one calling for people to get arrested DenaliDemocrat Sep 2025 #67
I'm not calling for their arrest. Maybe take it up with those who are? Coventina Sep 2025 #68
