RIP ROUP HOUSE, 20010-2012

We haven't updated at all in the last two months, and we're deeply sorry, but posthumously here we will say that the house has been pretty chaotic due to landlord arguments, neighbor arguments, and everyone scrambling for new living arrangements upon finding out we were going to have to leave a month early almost without warning.

So it is with a heavy heart that I must announce that Roup House is officially over, this First Day of July in the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Twelve.

Brian and Lucy will be traveling extensively across the United States for the next several months, and will be updating us on their adventures from an upcoming blog.

Ron's living in a basement; RJ is in Lawrenceville; Joe and Ross found a place together; Seth will be in a new  Christianity- and art-focused collective house; and Autumn is off to stranger climes yet unknown.

Thanks to everyone who's followed us during our time here, been our friend, come to our parties, hung out on the roof, played our enemy, or avoided us as self-obsessed, socially awkward, and slightly cultish. 

121 forever.

BREAKING NEWS!!!!

Local Rouper seeks sugar daddy, denies allegations

PITTSBURGH, PA (AP) -- Today inside sources have revealed that Lucy Goubert, leading poetess and monstrous denizen of the Friendship netherworld known only as "Roup House," has been secretly updating an account on SugarDaddyForMe.com for an unknown number of years. This information was discovered when two prominent Roupers, who wish to remain anonymous, walked in on Ms. Goubert just as she was attempting to log out of her account. When confronted she claimed that the account was made "as a joke" on "this kid in [her] high school," and attempted to explain her continued monitoring of the page by stating that she continually received updates from the SugarDaddyForMe service but didn't believe that the account could be terminated. Authorities are currently investigating these claims. -- by RJ Myato, staff editor.

Freaky Friday the 13th!

Today, Rouper Brian gathered for himself a big ole bowl of Lucky Charms, soy milk and all. He set the filled bowl on the kitchen table and walked over to the freezer to get some ice for his Sprite. Somehow, the bottle of water sitting next to his bowl of Lucky Charms spilled over into the bowl, causing the cereal and milk to overflow splashing onto the tabletop and floor below. What a loss! But, even more importantly...how did the bottle tip?! Ghosts? Or, maybe something even weirder! ahhhhhhh!!  Scared, partly of the friday the 13th ghost, and partly because he didn't want other Roupers to see his cereal splash embarrassment, he quickly cleaned up the mess. 

Luckily, he came back to his senses after a few minutes of cleaning up his room. He found this from Rouper Autumn. He also cannot remember when or why she gave it to him.
