(Someone suggested making a shirt with an arrow pointed to the side and right above it "I'm with a commie".. but that was a bit much). On some level, I think it's a good way to start things off; it's a good conversation starter and whatnot.. but, on another level I think it could get awkward if the new person takes it the wrong way. What do you guys think? Good? Bad? Have you ever had a foreign roommate?

BUT i still like this stuff, i suggest you work it in after you get to know each other Lewdness Posted at 9:13 pm on July 3, 2009 Quote: from Complex Kid at 9:00 pm on July 3, 2009 Too political.
