Please cancel the visit. You know he does twisted things you’ve hear the stories. It seems like he was vetting you as his next target since you’re conveniently out of town.

Sorry, you may be right. From where I come (poor 3rd world), we are more considerate.

A family member would not mess esp if others vouch. Its very rare but US has its own issues maybe

Put laundry detergent on them then hit their hands with a blacklight

What am I missing? Grammer? All 5 of what?

Take the job. Ask the school if they have options for part-time, online, or defer.

It took me a long time to find all 5 because my brain just skips over the ones that are right lol. How do you mix them in one sentence?

Mmmm free icing

I mean, this might be comparable to a hotel if you just add in your peace of mind.

Obvious karma baiting doesn’t answer anyone’s question and just spams “unhygienic habit”. If it is real just say no ffs

On one hand I can see that you don’t know this person, but on the other how psychotic do you have to be to want to tape your fridge shut to catch him in the act of being fucking hungry?

This doesn’t belong here, this belongs in AITA, and yes. Yes you are the asshole. You probably don’t know him because other family members warned him about your psychotic mannerisms.

They gonna open the fridge no matter what you do man

Alright so first you're gonna wanna get a collar and leash. This is useful to keep your guest in a specified radius. It should be long enough to reach the bathroom and bedroom.

Secondly you're gonna wanna hire someone to stand watch and shout if necessary. They should be able to monitor your guest should any issues arrive. You might also need a leash and collar for your guard, in case he decides to go for the refrigerator as well.

Next up you're gonna wanna get a bike lock for the fridge door. If guest thinks it's suspicious tell them you have a half dead body in there that you don't want getting out. He will understand.

Finally you're probably gonna wanna just get your buddy an Airbnb for the night instead

I saw on a YouTube video a trick to see if someone messes with your stuff in prison. You put some baby powder in your hand and blow a fine dust over the item. If it was moved you can see it in the dust. Almost like if you take an item off a shelf to dust that hasn’t moved in a long time there is a mark on the shelf where the item sat and dust couldn’t get underneath. So if it’s a candle for example you’ll see a circle on the shelf where it sat. If it doesn’t line up perfectly you know it was moved.

If you've ever played Skyrim, once someone allows you into their home, all of their stuff is up for grabs.

OP isn’t sure about this

What’s the school for? Undergrad? Graduate school? Honestly a full time job and school isn’t that difficult to manage if you can practice effective time management.

Are you just finishing a degree or starting from the beginning? How much do you have left? What’s the degree for? A lot of degrees aren’t worth much nowadays. If you can land this “dream job” I’d probably consider it a bird in the hand kind of situation. does the degree have online options?

I’m just gonna ask…is he adding his own special sauce to items in other peoples fridge?

Three sentences here that I have never read before. Lol

There once was a teenager who used his parents' extra car without permission. His mom got home, took one glance at the car, and then grounded the kid because she knew he used it.

Another opportunity came up to use the car. The kid tried to get the car at the exact same spot, but again, he was immediately grounded when his mom got home.

That happened again and again. The kid took polaroids; lining up the car and even the tire tread exactly as shown in the pictures. Still... Grounded.

Years later, after acquiring his own teenager who liked to break the rules, the kid asked his mother how she knew when he'd take the car.

She replied, "Oh that! I would just put a hair in the door. If it was gone I knew you had taken the car. 😁"

I couldn’t imagine asking a family member to let a friend stay with them while simultaneously warning them to lock up their possessions and throw away their food because the friend is so sketchy
