Complete the frustrated roommate's sticky note by dragging the correct phrases into the blanks.

"I have been washing the dishes for three weeks straight! Meanwhile, you have been playing video games on the couch since you woke up. It is time to buy a dishwasher!"

I have been washing the dishes for three weeks straight!

The present perfect continuous is the best choice here to emphasize the ongoing, continuous nature of an action that started in the past and is still happening now. The phrase "for three weeks straight" highlights the duration.

Meanwhile, you have been playing video games on the couch since you woke up.

We use the present perfect continuous with "since" to show an action that began at a specific point in the past ("since you woke up") and is still continuing.
