The Hangover sequel writer said his hatred got him 'laid a few times in '88'

Mazin said girls would complain to him after Cruz would walk to their side of the dorm in his bath robe

Said he was invited to senior parties because people felt sorry he had to be Cruz's roommate

Of all the people who are happy to speak out against Ted Cruz, no one is more enthusiastic than his freshman year roommate

Screenwriter Craig Mazin shared a dorm with the current Texas senator at Princeton University for one year, and it has clearly left him with a lifetime of stories - and of hate.

'As a freshman, I would get into senior parties because I was Ted's roommate,' Mazin recently tweeted. 'OUT OF PITY.'

'He was that widely loathed. It's his superpower.'

Screenwriter Craig Mazin has gained a massive following on Twitter thanks to the stories - and hate - he has shared for his former Princeton roommate Ted Cruz, who also just happens to be running for president

Mazin, who has more than 63,000 followers and has written the screenplays for the Hangover and Scary Movie sequels, now fields questions from people curious about Cruz on Twitter

Mazin has been speaking out against his former roommate long before Cruz launched his bid for the Republican presidential nomination.

After Cruz was elected to the Senate in 2012, Mazin announced on Twitter: 'My freshman year college roommate Ted Cruz is going to be elected Senator.'

'In case I hadn't made it clear, he's also a huge a**hole'.

The very next year, Mazin was one of Cruz's few Princeton peers willing to go on record about their disdain for him.

'I would rather have anybody else be the president of the United States,' Mazin told the Daily Beast in 2013, predicting Cruz's future campaign.

'Anyone. I would rather pick somebody from the phone book.'

As Cruz's profile and support has continued to rise, Mazin has shared more and more stories about the 17-year-old he said would don a paisley bathrobe and walk to the girl's side of the dorm.

'I would end up fielding the [girls'] complaints: "Could you please keep your roommate out of our hallway?'" Mazin told the newspaper.

Mazin, who has more than 63,000 followers and has written the screenplays for the Hangover and Scary Movie sequels, now fields questions from people curious about Cruz on Twitter.

Mazin first made headlines when, in a 2013 interview, he proclaimed he would rather pick someone out in the phone book then vote Cruz (pictured in a high school yearbook photo) for president

'Other than existing, what's the worst thing Ted did to you?' one asked.

'Set his alarm for 7am and then hit the snooze button seven times in a row,' Mazin replied. 'Day after day. Until I crazy-glued it.'

But Mazin didn't have a response when one Twitter user asked what Cruz did on a 'typical Friday night in college'.

'I have no idea,' Mazin replied. 'Because the first thing I did after my last class of the week was GET THE F*** AWAY FROM TED CRUZ.'

One user couldn't believe it had been all bad, asking Mazin if at any point during in their dorm he and Cruz shared 'genuine moment', made 'sincere eye contact' or even agreed on what television show to watch.

'No, no and no,' Mazin responded.

The screenwriter did admit there was one benefit to being Cruz's roommate. Along with the party invites out of pity, he said his hatred of Cruz 'got me laid a few times in '88'.

But along with the jokes and tales from college, Mazin has been vocal in his belief that Cruz would make a dangerous president.

'Ted Cruz will become the thing you need him to be so that he wins an election,' Mazin wrote. 'No principles, no moral center, no values. Just ambition.'

Mazin said that ambition came from Cruz's upbringing: 'Ted has wanted to be President ever since his father told him that's what Jesus really, really wanted to happen,' he wrote on Twitter.

Now as Cruz gains in the polls, most recently winning three states on Super Tuesday, Mazin said some people are wishing he had taken action.

'Getting emails blaming me for not smothering Ted Cruz in his sleep in 1988,' Mazin shared.

'What kind of monster do you think I am? A really prescient one?'

As for the rumor that Ted Cruz is the Zodiac Killer, an unidentified serial killer who claimed to kill 37 people in Northern California during the 1960s and 70s, Mazin says it's impossible.

'Ted Cruz is not the Zodiac Killer,' he wrote. 'The Zodiac Killer actually got things done.'

But along with the jokes and tales from college, Mazin has been vocal in his belief that Cruz would make a dangerous president, writing that he has 'No principles, no moral center, no values. Just ambition'
