But what happens when other housemates’ schedules don’t align with this new rule? Let’s dive into this deliciously dramatic tale! ️

In a shared living situation, compromises are essential. But when one housemate’s rule threatens to leave others hungry, it’s time to stir the pot! Our protagonist, a hardworking student, finds herself at odds with her ‘clean freak’ housemate who’s imposed a ‘no cooking after 6:30 PM’ rule to ensure her beauty sleep. Despite attempts at reasoning and proposing a house meeting to discuss the issue, the rule-maker remains unyielding, hurling accusations of selfishness. ♀️ As the tension simmers, we’re left wondering – will the housemates reach a compromise or will dinner time continue to be a battlefield? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this culinary conflict! ️
