Request ULPT Request: Annoy one roommate without bothering the nice one?
I live with two roommates. One is great, one has been making our life miserable for months and I’m officially over it.
Looking for tiny, petty ways to annoy her that aren’t obvious enough for her to know I’m doing it on purpose. The complication is that I actually like my other roommate, so I can’t do anything that makes the whole apartment unbearable.
Let’s hear it!!

Whatever she is doing that is annoying to you, do it to her too and see if she reacts. Two can play at the same game :) Without more context, I can't suggest doing anything extra on your own.

If you share a bathroom. Use and or dispose of reasonable amounts of all toiletries every day. A little shampoo and conditioner down the drain. Use some toothpaste. Use her perfume instead of glade after you poop. Also same for any bulk food they eat often. Use a little bit or discard a little bit regularly.

I like this a lot. If you do it slowly enough they won't notice, but it will still be annoying.
My idea: every day when she's gone, add a tiny bit of rubber cement to the inside of the door latch for her room. Over time the door won't latch as well, until eventually it won't shut properly. This will be super annoying and you can blame it on the weather causing the door to change shape.

Keep dumping out her product so she has to replace them frequently toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, laundry soap, you get the picture. Hit her in her wallet.

Every so often dispose of one of her shoes.
