Dear Becky,

My roommate grew up in a naked house, and thus is very comfortable lettin’ it all hang out all day long. How can I avoid the view?

Dear Afraid,

Designer's Eye Wall Room Divider
Please invest in a Designer’s Eye Wall Room Divider.

It comes in different colors and if you ever get a roommate whose birthday suit you want to see, you can roll it up and store it with ease. Good luck!

Dear Becky,

My frat brothers have adopted a three legged dog that has never been house-trained. My room is getting rather fragrant. What to do?

Signed,
Juan Epstein

Dear Juan,

I feel your pain. It reminds me of when The Dude has to toss out his urine soaked rug in “The Big Lebowski” and keeps lamenting that “it really tied the room together man!”

First, nail the doggy door shut. This will not only keep Spot out, it will prevent your hygienically-challenged brothers from crawling through it in order to borrow your deodorant.


Angela Adams rug
Second, treat yourself to an Angela Adams cotton rug, like the Bruno Suede or the Raindrop Moonstone. It will impress the ladies and it will really tie the room together, man.
