Why can't adults act like adults?

Today has been a very stressful day, all concerning the immaturity of one single person. A girl, one of my roommates, that successfully brainwashed herself into thinking that she, is the only person in the world. I've had many issues with her before, and though at times it may seem that we argue for things done (all in her part), I believe the problem lies, in her inability to act like an adult.

The "problem" was that in the beginning of the quarter she (girl A) began using my other roommates (girl B) internet connection (yes, no wifi) without asking and without saying. Well guess what, Girl B needs to use the internet too! After girl A barged in multiple times screaming and yanking the cord out and inserting her's into Girl B's internet connection, she began saying she had homework to do...Well what about Girl B? So this what I told her after observing the bullying, that Girl B has homework too, and what gives her the right to say that her homework is much more important? What makes her more important. Among many other things said, all me and Girl B wanted was her to talk to us.

We wanted her to approach as and say "hey can we make a compromise and share the internet connection?" Or at least, express her feelings in a non yelling matter. That's really all we wanted. There are many other things that she should learn, from what I've clearly observed these couple of months, but that is one of them. Sit down and talk things out, learn to act like an adult.
