what about when the person in the next bunk jerks off, farts, falls asleep, snores?

this is a nightmare scenario with no redeeming features that I'm sure will quickly lead depression if not violence

Meh, if you've lived in an all boys dorm in a boarding school that's really not an issue. The main issue is how the fuck is the property market is so fucked beyond relief that paying 700 dollars for a bunk bed a "welcome" option.

ah yes, an all boys dormitory, what every young, grown man looks forward to in their adult life

this is some Road to Wigan Pier shit.
