>tfw I steal my roommate's booze

uh, hide it somewhere in your room?
>>
Locking it up wouldn't stop me unless you use a safe. Your best bet is hiding them and not letting him know you even have booze. If he sees you come home with it, it's already too late.
>>
You're fucked. Drunks are like bloodhounds for that shit.
>>
>>7191227
Hide it in your room, and on it, put a sticky note saying "smile you're on camera" Hopefully he won't go that far to root through your stuff, but if he does, hes going to feel weird as fuck.

Start looking for a new roommate.

If he's stealing your shit, he's not worth staying with.

This.

You need to hide your booze. I am an alcoholic and have lived with fellow boozers. We don't necessarily steal it, but sharing is caring.
>>
as others have said, the most important thing is that you hide it and don't let them even see you bring it into the house. if you're looking for a clever hiding place, i know someone who hides their liquor in their car trunk (works if you live somewhere temperate).
>>
>>7191383
I'll steal your absinthe. In fact I'll prioritize your absinthe over other spirits.

You clearly don't know any boozers. We'll drink fucking anything, and absinthe is a prime target. It's much higher in alcohol content, so we can sip little by little and hope you won't notice.

Keep it wherever you keep the cleaning supplies, guaranteed they'll never find it.

>not filling it with rancid piss and baby oil

It never really starts out as stealing all of your booze. Just one drink he won't mind. Well maybe just one more. Next thing you know, the entire bottle(s) is gone and you're too drunk to care and instead pass out while trying to find more. Like the one person said, if they know you have it, hiding it won't help. Not one bit. If it's there and they know it the house will be thoroughly searched until it's found. You could empty into different containers to hide the fact it is alcohol. That would work until they catch on. They see you bring it home. Tell them don't touch it. When not around, put it into a different container some where and leave the empty out to be seen.
>>
>>7191377
>being unable to sustain ones self.
>>
>>7191227
Just mix a bunch of knorr stockpots into it.
>>
Whenever my flatmates steal my booze, I always just hide it behind my Knorr Stockpots.
Why?
Because Knorr stockpots are absolute rubbish and no one would ever steal them.
You should try it.
>>
If you're serious, you have 2 options. 1) Don't have booze. 2) Move out.
>>
>>7191227
Last warning: kick them out if they ever do it again. Follow through on that warning.

Alternatively, you could do what my brother did once to a perpetual milk thief: phenolphthalein. It's a commonly-used chemical indicator solution found in any lab, but when neutral, is colourless and odourless. It's also a fierce laxative. (It's also apparently known to be carcinogenic now - so actually no, don't do that shit. Just kick him out.)

>>7191362
This. It's a small step from there to them stealing your money, or stealing your stuff to sell it for money to feed their habit.

>drinking to be cool
>pretending it tastes good
Yeah, if you're 17 maybe. everybody with a wit about them knows 99% of alcohol tastes worse than a fucking humdrum bog-standard coke, and alcohol certainly isn't cool in anyones eyes.

Except of course the underagers, the high-school kiddies; I'm guessing you're either still in school or you're just a baitlord. Some people enjoy a nice malt, and some people drink alcohol to fit in, but at the end of the day most people between the ages of 18-35 who drink just do it to get shitfaced.
>>
>>7193802
Good advice, spike his drink with an obscure chemical only found in laboratories that will give him cancer in 10 years
>autism the post

>>7193160
that's a good idea

Leave a note with your booze saying that you have poisoned one bottle and only you know which bottle contains the poison.

Alternatively, clean out a bottle of poison and pour the booze into the clean bottle (pic related). The housemate will think it's poison and avoid it.
>>
>>7191585
>Have an intervention with his friends and family and assist him in seeking help.

This.
If this is your roommate, stop being disappointed in him. Either stock him up, lock your items in a metal chemical cabinet, or stop having it on hand. Your collection days,and having a choice is not how it's going to be for you while living with this person. Buy a bottle or rum, and when it's gone, you do your gin mood, or whatever, but you can't keep a choice going for a whim. You can't stop an alcoholic from binge drinking, and when they can't drive and they don't want the buzz to end, they will cross boundaries and drink your stuff without regret.

What bothers you more, the pricetags or the fact its not there when you want it? If it is the latter, oh well. But, if you don't mind buying more because you plan all your parties, just make it where you get money upfront and you make it where you aren't robbed without being paid back.

If they don't want to pay for whatever premium shit they drank, then you should leave. If they always give up the money without argument, and are graceful about it, fine.You'll work out a system.
>>
>>7194503
I'm not even OP but i think drinking out of old chemical bottles is a great idea and I'm going to do it. I don't even have a roommate.

Hide the good stuff but leave some really cheap stuff out from him to steal. He'll be guilt ridden but at the same time you'll only lose a few bucks.
>>
You need to put an end to this.
Today he may be stealing your liquor, but tomorrow he'll be stealing your life.
I suggest dioxins in his drink.

Locking a fridge won't work. Friend of mine's mom was an alcoholic (was because she died from it) and he got a fridge with a lock, thinking this would keep her out.

This frail 80-90 pound wisp of a former person broke the fucking lock and drank all the booze. She also stumbled into his room, made a beeline for any booze, popped a straw in for airflow and shotgunned everything in front of him as he was to shocked to actually stop her and left without a word. She was certainly... fascinating to see, I guess would be the way to put it.
>>

>>7191227
First tell him to leave your shit alone. Second fill an old bottle with piss, if it's vodka hydrate till your pee is clear. Leave the piss bottle in an obvious place.

If you don't want to do that try vinegar or some type of colorless oil.

Get a latch and padlock for your room and look for a new roommate.

The other option is to not keep alcohol in the house (mayhap outside) and drink his shit when he finally gets desperate and buys some.

I drink all the time, and I've never stolen my room mates' booze. But seriously, I'll tell you how to stop this.

If he's a problem alc, he will find it and steal it if he knows you have it. 100%.

You have to do two things. Never let him know you have any, and lock it up in a special and hidden safe/container.

Take 2 bottles and fill one with rubbing alcohol and put a note letting him know. Wrong choice will fuck him up.

Empty a vodka bottle and mix ether with water.

Ether does the same thing as alcohol except more potent, it used to be popular in Ireland in the 19th century.
Don't give him pure ether as it can cause funny hiccups since it boils at 35 degrees so it can rupture his stomach.

Alternatively you can make a fly agaric substract and put it in your drink, the fly agaric isn't dangerous unless you consume 10+ shrooms at once but it will give him a horrible trip unless he's a true masochist.
It's a deliriant and I've learned from experience that absolutely nobody but me and another hardcore masochist who's into being degraded like deliriants.

Afterwards you just call the police that he's become psychotic.
>>
you can't stop them from stealing it... you can hide it and not let them know it's in the house at all, but just hiding it or locking it up is unlikely to do much... if they know or suspect it's there then they'll probably steal it

and i say that as someone who's stolen plenty of pain killers and benzos... and alcohol... not from a roommate ever, but yeah... can't say i'd be above that if i was physically addicted, most addicts aren't

in all honesty you should probably consider moving out, or having them leave... living with a severe alcoholic is awful if all you are to each other is something like roommates... i mean it's bad when you care more, but it's easier to put up with things too...

>>7196170

more like "was" it's been a long time... but having done shit like that is why i'm saying no matter what if it's even suspected that alcohol is in the house op's roommate will probably get it... full searches of the house for alcohol will be a thing if they even find out it was hidden once, and are a severe addict

Mix ipecac syrup into a bottle

I remember when I lived with my stoner, business major roommates I eventually started stealing their weed that they left out in the open because they'd make me clean up their post-munchie cooking binges and shat up my good cookware. Our relationship degraded so much that I lost all respect for them. When they finally realized their weed stash was quickening more than usual they hid their weed in their rooms, which I eventually got to as well. No fucks given for those cocksuckers, I moved out within 4 months.

OP, if someone is thieving from you they don't respect you. No amount of hiding their desired product will stop them from invading the very personal space that they don't respect. I imagine boozers are the worst because their addiction is physical and mental.
It's best to pretend like you don't have any alcohol. Getting a fridge, even with a lock, basically validates that you have alcohol you don't want them to have and the second your guard is down they'll try to take some, or pick the locks.
Don't mention that you drink to them anymore. If they probe you for alcohol tell them you've been dry for a good long while. Meanwhile, get out asap.

If you MUST get a personal fridge then sneak it in your room and hide it somewhere in the closet or some shit.

what you need to do is become an alcoholic yourself and bond with him.

I live in a house with 3 other alcoholics and any booze we buy that night gets is consumed that night, there's no "oh shit anon's asleep I'm taking a shot of his jameson" If there's a bottle of jameson, everyone will be too drunk by the end of the night to want to steal more, you know what I mean? It's not hard to go to the store when you want to get drunk instead of having a weird collection of half filled bottles.

You'd have awful spread and the shot wouldn't be nearly as damaging as from an actual shotgun but if you bolt down the trap to keep it in place it would absolutely work.
Might not have lethal force actually, I'm not sure, but it'd certainly deter him.

The fact that you refer to what is obviously a shotgun shell as a "bullet" makes me suspect you're not quite as much the expert as you want us to believe.
