Another aspect of Bachman’s life that was given only the briefest exposition on “Worst Roommate Ever” was his legal education. As Screen Rant reports, the show made it clear that Bachman used his knowledge of the law, and his frequent use of legalese, to terrorize his victims. It does not note, however, that Bachman got his law degree at the age of 45 after having spent several years overseas. His law professors at the University of Miami and Georgetown were quite impressed with him: “In 20 years of university teaching, I have encountered very few people of his caliber,” wrote one instructor.

Despite having a law degree, Bachman never became a lawyer. He took the bar exam in 2003, failed, and never tried again. Still, that didn’t stop him from invoking punctilious legal jargon when it came to terrorizing his roommates, and indeed, the show doesn’t go into just how aggressive he was about it. For example, when a roommate complained about Bachman throwing soiled cat litter in a toilet, he wrote, “Correct me if I’m wrong, as I only have two graduate degrees, but my understanding was that the proper place for sh*t is in a toilet,” according to New York Magazine. Similarly, when he found a cigarette butt in a toilet, he told his roommate that they had violated the “warranty of habitability.”
