Pretty sure this qualifies me as a shitty person, but I feel so good about it at the same time:
Two of my roommates (a couple) are utter assholes who really have no business living with other people. I've tried being nice, especially considering the boyfriend is a dick who cheats on his girlfriend and treats her like crap, but I have really stopped caring about them.
He has not paid for utilities in almost three months. He keeps whining that he doesn't have enough money, but then goes out and blows his money shopping, going out to eat or buying shit to rice out his racer BWM. I have asked repeatedly for him to pay, but he won't. I have withheld his utility portion from my rent, but that makes his girlfriend nag me endlessly to pay the rest of the amount, so I decided to hit him where it really hurts: the interwebs.
When he's not ricing out his car or douching around the place he is hogging the only tv with CoD MW 2. He plays online all day and night. While they were at work I decided to switch the internet password and hide the modem so they can't access it but my other roommates who DO pay for their shit have access. I wasn't here when they came home and found out, but according to one roomie they were not pleased and left in a huff.
I feel sort of bad, and yes it is passive-aggressive bullshit but being upfront with them doesn't get much other than a sob story and I didn't know any other way to make a point. If he just pays $31 for this month (I'll forgive the last two months) he can get his internet back... and really, that isn't much considering his parents are ridiculously loaded. They bought him two import BMWs, I am sure they can spot him $31.
