So, I live with 3 girls in a townhouse in residence. I've lived here for 2 months and we've had a big problem for the past month.

My one roommate isn't doing her dishes or any cleaning up around the house. In fact, her dishes have been sitting for almost 2 weeks. Dirty dishes. Now, she's been talked to more than a few times and still, her dishes sit. Her excuse; "I don't have as much time as you guys."

My attitude is we live in a communal area and that I shouldn't have to clean up after her everyday just so I can eat.

Now, there's been a few more issues with her but they really don't involve me so I won't go into it. But she has a history of extremely explosive behaviors when she's confronted.

So, even though I feel stupid posting this problem here, I was wondering what I should do, or what we should do as a house?

Last night I highlighted a section of the rules and put it on the table just as a reminder of what we all agreed to (and yes, it was a little cheeky). Today on the message board was a note reading: "DO NOT enforce one rule when you know fucking well none of the other ones are being enforced"

So, any advice?
