So currently I have the douchebag roommate (freshman) and two cool roommates (juniors like me).  Well one of them, the Irish one, and I got in a little spat due to last night.  Heres the scoop.

He goes out around 10 with his friend after Lost and getting all dressed up.
He drunk dials me around 2 as its pouring out and he's looking for a way home, I tell him to call a cab, and we hang up.  I remember something and immediately text him "You better not have forgot your fucking keys again..."
He texts me around 2.30 "Whats the number for XXXXX cab?"  I wake up, get out of bed, go to my computer to look it up and send the number to him.
At 3.00 I get woken up again by pounding on the front door.  He fucking forgot his keys again.  So I go and let him in, but I'm angry.

FLASHBACK:
In the past, I've answered his calls/texts for the exact same cab number 3 times.
In the past, I've been woken up by his loud knocking (I'm the only one on the ground level) because he forgot his keys 4 times.

Now I'm usually pretty easy going, most things just aren't worth getting upset over, but he woke me up 3 times last night for things he shouldn't have needed.  I don't get angry often, but I was angry.

SO I calmly told him that if he asks me for that cab number again, I'm not giving it to him, so he should put it in his phone, and that if he locks himself out again and I'm asleep, I'm not opening the door for him.  He kinda freaks out and starts talking louder and faster, trying to tell me to man up and accept it, that it was an accident, trying to argue me out of it, I just kept on telling him that I wasn't going to let him in, that remembering your keys isn't that hard.

Personally I think he purposely leaves them behind, as he doesn't like carrying them around.  He usually doesn't forget stuff, and the only times I've ever had to let him in has been when he's been out drinking.

And asking him to remember it isn't really all that much, May 19th he's leaving to study abroad in Ireland for the summer, and he won't be going out much with exams coming up, so basically I'm telling him "If you can't remember to take your keys with you when you go out (possibly 3 times?) for the next few weeks, you get to sleep outside."

I don't think he thinks I'm serious.  I deal with the bills, with the landlord, I lent my TV for the main room where everyone else has their own, I run the router and do tech support, I keep the common areas vacuumed, I rarely use the common trash and dishes, but I still take it out and empty the dishwasher.  I go out to the bars with people when they need it, even if i have other stuff to do or would like to stay home, I'm the one who listens when people bitch about their day or about a test, or when they're in an academic mood and want to talk about the line of scottish kings for half an hour (who cares?).  I help them with math and science homework, I listen to their women troubles, I walk with them to the liquor store so they don't have to walk alone, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna back down on this.
