Disgruntled people have revealed the ‘monstrous’ habits of their housemates and partners.
Photos posted in a Reddit thread show that some live with hoarders, others with cheapskates and an unlucky few with outright slobs.
Partners were the worst offenders, with husbands outing their wives for savagely tearing food packets, hoarding empty shampoo bottles and used rolls of toilet paper and leaving toothpaste tubes open with gel oozing from the lid.
