To even consider framing him with drugs is pretty fucking beta.

or I could set him up with drugs or something

Jesus christ man. Why is ruining somebodies life, because they get under your skin, even an option.

I'm sure he's not too fond of you, either, but he probably hasn't thought about setting you up. My first roommate was in ROTC so he woke up at 4am every morning and a lot of nights he was getting ready to leave as I was coming in to sleep. I fucked girls 15 feet away from him as he was sleeping and woke him up several times, and he's planted weapons on my side of the room and I claimed it because I knew the RA and could get away with it, he wouldn't be so lucky. We weren't "friends" and we didn't talk much, but we never threatened to set each other up or have one of us jumped. It's college bro, not the perfect match. lol perfect time to learn to adapt to shitty scenarios and work on your frame - and not the kind that involves planting drugs.

TL;DR: If it's that big of a deal, talk to the RA's and find another place to smoke. Sounds like being able to smoke in the room is more important to you than getting sound sleep, keeping up with your health, and improving your grades.

jesus dude find a way out. talk to the RA. ask to switch rooms with someone, sometimes they'll allow that. beating the shit out of him or framing him are incredibly stupid moves

I had a roommate like that my freshman year. Your options are get another random weirdo, luck out and get to live alone on campus (long shot), or deal with it and just avoid going back there. If you have as many friends as you say you do just crash at their place once and a while and stay over there. If you explain the situation it's not a big deal. No need to frame a kid or have him beat up, that's a bit much.
