Relax. My roommate is not dirty, although he has some poor habits when it comes to keeping the bathtub drain clear.
I was once sitting in my room on a Saturday afternoon, minding my own business at around 2 pm, and my roommate was in the bathroom. I can't remember what I was actually doing, but I do know that my roommate decided to open the bathroom door to ask me a question:
13. "Now, if my toothbrush is already somewhat wet, is it possible that I didn't brush my teeth this morning and that it's still damp from using it last night?"
Wow. He has resorted to detective work to determine whether he had brushed his teeth yet. He told me that he can't feel/taste the difference before or after brushing his teeth, except for the minty aftertaste for a few minutes afterard. I'm wondering who has any doubt about his teeth have been brushed 6 hours after waking up.
This only happened once, so I kinda made fun of him and moved on. Then one day I realized something about his shower habits on the weekends. I normally sleep in on Saturdays while he decides to wake up at around 8AM.
14. I noticed several times that he takes showers in excess of 45 minutes and sometimes takes showers over an hour.
I noticed it early on but dismissed it, figuring that I had poor time judgment when I was half asleep on a Saturday morning. However, one day it was confirmed, when I woke up and needed to use the bathroom at 8:20. I waited until 9 AM before I decided to finally knock on the door and I hear "Oh you need to use the restroom? I'll be right out." He comes out wearing a towel, and I proceed to use the bathroom and come back out. He says to me "I wasn't finished so I'm just going to hop back in." Uh. Ok. I go back to bed and go to sleep. When he finally comes out of the bathroom, I check my watch and see that it is 9:30.

Update on ideas #10 and 11
Almost to drive the point home on my criticism that , my roommate does not understand the concept of barter, I came home to this sign:

So he spells my last name incorrectly with an 'o,' despite the fact that we've known each other for 9 months, and almost every time we see each other during the duty day we're wearing freaking uniforms with our last names on them. Secondly, he took a DVD of mine without asking first to another city. What the hell is the point of driving somewhere when you're just going to watch DVDs anyway? And finally, he makes sure to make clear that I am entitled to ONLY ONE drink, so that I don't take too many. I open the refrigerator hoping that it's not crappy beer, but alas, it is even worse than crappy beer - it's freaking regular old soda. NO THANKS, I DON'T WANT YOUR PEPSI. And he still owes me like 4 beers and a bag of cheetos. Finally, he decides to spell "tomorrow" wrong. I swear, any jackass with money can get a bachelor's degree.
EDIT: I forgot to write that I did take his last energy drink. And it was especially delicious for being the last one.
