Taking all the arguing aside that topic turned into, this reminded me of a story of my own. When I was in college, me and my roommate got back to the dorm room on a Friday or Saturday night after going out with a group of friends. It was like 2AM, so we went to bed. About an hour later, theres some loud banging at our door. Were both half out of it, but we go and see who is there.

It was some dude that was hammered and was convinced that this was his room. We actually lived in what was at the time (dont know if it still is) the largest dorm building in the country, so there were 25 residential floors, each looking identical. He just was on the wrong floor, but goddamn, it took some convincing to get his drunk ass to leave. After getting him to tell us where he lived and telling him he was on the wrong floor, he left... for about 30 seconds. He then started pounding on the door again and was getting a bit more hostile about us being in his room. I mean... we were never in any danger by any means (2 vs 1, were sober hes drunk, etc), but it was just annoying to get this dude to leave.

Had something similar happen at our apartment when I was in college. Was hanging out with my roommates and a couple of friends and a random girl who was completly trashed came in our apartment and wouldn't leave. We tried to find a way to get her home or get someone she knew to come and get her but she was completely incoherent and didn't even have a phone or purse. She went into my roommates room and refused to leave so we eventually just had to call the cops to come get her.

I felt bad, but we couldn't just throw her out to fend for herself in the state she was in and didn't know what else to do.
