Flatmate issues

Let's be fair, sometimes cleaning up other peoples mess is unavoidable.
All the plates, cups and cookware are dirty and the kitchen is generally disgusting. What are you to do?
Clean what you need for yourself, and keep it in your bedroom when not in use.
There's also the "3-step" procedure:
Step 1: Pile all the dirty stuff in front of the offenders door.
If this fails to remedy the situation:
Step 2: Pile all the dirty stuff in the middle of the offenders room.
If this fails to remedy the situation:
Step 3: Pile all the dirty stuff on the offenders bed.
This is a working person, who still lives like a student, outside of some sort of behaviour conditioning you work to rule.
That's just childish though, why not just tell the offender to sort it out, if they want to live like an animal they can go live in the ****ing shed.
Behaviour conditioning is what I'm saying, if you fix other peoples lives they'll continue their pattern.
And "lives like a student" that really ****es me off, I never lived like that when I was a student. I cooked, cleaned and maintained the house.
Because sometimes (as appears to be the case here) just telling them doesn't cut it, and they need... an incentive.

Yeah, but as you probably know, you and I are in the minority. Most students are repugnant.
Well yes, the incentive is avoiding a plate hurtling toward their face.

Switch to vaping and leave the smoking lark behind.
VV mod, micro coil, cotton wick and 70% VG juice will have you blowing clouds all over the damned house. And it won't stink at all.
See how she likes that when she walks in to what looks like the foggy streets of Victorian London (aka. the Living Room), to find you in the kitchen holding the brand new cleaning rota that you've devised.
"Hey look... I did it. I'm not smoking anymore. Now, here's your chores... and stop slamming doors."
Her face would be priceless.

Maybe combine the two activities?
Oh dude, vaping sucks, after quitting for 6 months I tried vaping so I didn't "slip" when I was drinking. Gave up on vaping - it's nowhere near as satisfying and it tastes like crap.

I'd have to disagree.
Taste depends on which juice you're using, surely. Were you having a go at crappy disposables or something?
So putting the dirty objects in a place which leaves them no choice about dealing with it is "childish" whereas throwing crockery at them isn't?
