Take one for the Team

Also known as the "Volunteer's Dilemma". This is a social dilemma with several people involved and one must sacrifice their evolvement or reward for the benefit of the rest of the group.
I saw that guy really take one for the team. You must be close.

You can't force a person to do what they don't want to do.
You can't take a horse to water is a useful phrase to learn when making friends.

Take-out Tower

A take out tower is when your roommate orders out every day but also loves their food so much that they save it for weeks on end in a 6x6in square within the fridge. Also, though, it implies that there are other items in the fridge that are taking up space because your roommate is so organized and cleanly. The roomate utilizes just a 6x6in square for all the take out that they have ordered and saved for a later day to have their roommate throw it away.
"When you have several takeout orders stacked on top of one another, preceding the most recent order, you have a 'Take-out Tower.'

If you ever encounter a 'Take-out Tower,' make sure the foundation of the tower is a pizza box or a taco bowl, crowned with a Burger King bag. If you or your roommate have your 'Take-out Tower' in reverse order, the builder of the tower will ultimately scoff when it collapses and then blame their non-offending, non-Take-out Tower-building roommate.

Take-out towers are a kind of flex because you can afford to build such a tower."
