Ben Affleck on living with filthy Matt Damon: There were ‘maggots’

Have you ever lived with someone who didn’t exactly prioritize cleanliness? Well, according to Ben Affleck, living with his longtime friend and collaborator, Matt Damon, was no walk in the park. In a recent interview, Affleck revealed just how dirty their apartment was back in the day.

According to Affleck, their apartment had a serious roach problem - and not just any roaches, but the big, flying kind. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the apartment was also infested with maggots, causing Affleck to become sick on more than one occasion.

Despite the less-than-sanitary living conditions, Affleck and Damon managed to create some of their early masterpieces in the same apartment. In fact, it was during this time that they wrote the screenplay for Good Will Hunting, which would go on to win an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.

While the story of Affleck and Damon’s less-than-ideal living situation may seem like nothing more than a funny anecdote, it highlights a larger issue that many people face. For some, living with messy roommates can lead to stress, anxiety, and even health problems. It’s important to not only prioritize cleanliness in shared living spaces, but also have open communication with roommates about expectations and boundaries.

In conclusion, Ben Affleck’s revelation about living with Matt Damon may have been a humorous moment in pop culture, but it serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining a clean living space and having open communication with roommates. So, if you find yourself living with roommates who aren’t the cleanest, remember that you deserve a space that is safe and comfortable for you.
