Hello, I'm a 22 y/o male living in australia victoria and attending university.
currently I have been sharing a house with another dude for just over a year. we were acquaintances before school and since living together we became 'friends'. I never really liked the guy because he is a complete melvin and my hidden agenda's are something he would strongly disagree with.
I know this section doesnt allow drug discussion but this isnt the main focus, but I have to mention I have been a daily pot smoker since I was 18 and have smoked every day in the house since living with this guy undetected.
A week ago he pulled me up in the kitchen and said he thought he could smell smoke in the house and tried to find the source and went through my room. on my desk there was my iphone 4s case which i use as a mix bowl and had a tiny bit of leftovers, along with a half emptied ciggerrette. this apparently gave him warrant to search deeper into my room, including cupboards and wardrobes. he discovered my bong, a sealed half bag and the bag ive been picking from with about 5grams left in it. he also found my aldi's bag which had various other paraphernalia like pipes, grinders , tins and shit ive collected over the years which i never use but just store away.
He basically changed his attitude and personallity towards me and was particularly annoyed and surprised when i said i'd been doing it since day 1 without him knowing. he tried playing the 2nd hand smoke game, but i said you cant say that when you have never noticed it until now. I don't even know if he actually did smell smoke, I'm pretty open about my smoking to other people so maybe someone has said something, i dont know. he stopped talking to me and tried belittling me like I was a criminal. Considering I work 22 hours a week + full time study, where he has been forever unemployed and getting paid by centerlink to do the absolute minimum possible, I own a $15k car I bought myself to which he got given one, completely tidy where as he leaves dishes in his room and in the kitchen for days to the point where they are impossible to scrub, and finally completely self dependent and not relying on the government or top ups from parents like him.
After a week of the discovery, he caught me again in my room, this time red handed, and decided that was the final straw and is going to report me to the university. he tried to argue he didnt really have a problem with it, but it was illegal and didnt want to risk getting himself 'convicted'. while I absolutely do understand this, there is no way someone can find out because nobody goes into my room unless they are snooping. the cleaner come once a fortnight but only into the common areas. we have actually been warned twice in one month when I was away during the holidays, because the kitchen was a pigsty and the loungeroom had empty pizza boxes and dvd's lying around everywhere. it was asif he was the stereotypical messy stoner.
it come to a point where if he wanted to play games then I'd have to play along too. I bought an external HDD and jumped on his computer and copied absolutely everything. I took screenshots of browser history on torrenting websites & his bittorrent client which he never cleaned. I took screenshots of the blogs and websites he downloads music from.
I decided if he is going to use the legal arguement side of things, I'd be happy to jump on board with a play of my own. I confronted him with a smirk on my face and told him that I discovered he had been illegally downloading in our house and I wasn't happy about it. I didn't like that he was risking ourselfs to massive fines and imprisonment, or getting kicked out of the university house since this was illegal activity in our house. I told him i went onto his pc and copied everything onto a hard drive and will be presenting it as evidence when the university confronts me about his complaint. I told him that I would not lie about using cannabis to the university people and will find somewhere else to live. He was not happy that I went onto his pc (funny huh?) and was quite confident he was not going to get in trouble for doing something as soft as 'downloading a few movies and tv shows like everyone else does'.
I know it's a soft contradiction and that I am probably going to be kicked out, but I really am hoping to take this dickhole down with me. The fact that the fat pig can do whatever he wants and because im doing something illegal and because im 'doing drugs' makes me a bad person just shits me and I cant let him get away with it. this guy is the definition of someone who is useless and would be culled if earth ever come to that and he thinks he has more right to be in the house than I do. if he doesn't agree with what I do fine, he could of at least asked me to move out if he was that bothered with it instead of immediately trying to ruin my life.
I guess the real question is do I actually have any legs to stand on when it comes to a situation like this? Was my hard drive purchase a good investment or are they just gonna throw it out the door and not bother with it. I'm looking forward to the arguement if they pick and choose what laws people can & cant break.
