The roommate who treated my air fryer like a garbage disposal
My roommate used my $60 air fryer to reheat lasagna with the foil still on, and the sparks melted the basket liner last Tuesday night. He shrugged and told me 'it still works, just use a spatula to scrape it,' but now every meal tastes like burnt metal and smoke. How do you get someone to pay for what they broke without turning the whole apartment into a courtroom?
My old roommate did the same thing but with a plastic spoon he left in a pot of chili on my stove. Melted plastic all over the burner and the whole place smelled like cancer for a week. When I asked him to chip in for a new pot he acted like I was being dramatic and said "it adds flavor." I ended up just taking it out of my half of the electric bill and he never even noticed, which honestly says a lot about him.
