ANNOYING ROOMMATES (lots of venting) :(
I am at my wit's end! I think I have one of the most annoying roommates in history. Let me describe this guy a bit.
He is always playing world of warcraft. I don't mean a couple hours a day, I mean like 8 hours a day. He sits there and comments on "fucking rogues" and shit like that. If there's an update or something that will keep him from playing until noon, he gets annoyed and watches those lame videos. Yesterday he was watching one and I heard him say "genius!". I asked him what he was talking about and he went on to explain some nerdy shit that I don't understand. He said that "people haven't done that since guild wars and its really effective!". I now know not to ask him about any of his exclamations to himself, but that doesn't matter because if I'm in the room watching tv or playing xbox, he turns to me and waits for me to react so that he can explain whatever nerdy shit he's dealing with. Even if I pretend not to hear him he'll say it after 20 seconds or so. This is unavoidable. He pays those sites to "power level" his "hunters" and stuff and then bitches when they don't do it right away or something. He was just banned today for swearing and right as I enter the room he gives me a detailed explanation as to why and how it's "so fucking gay". He does this for about 20 minutes. Whenever I go outside for a smoke, he tags along and I get to hear more about this stuff. Not to worry though, because he apparently has another account to play in situations like this. I am privy to every fucking thing that happens in the nerdiest game of all time, whether I want to hear it or not. "Oh my god, I can't believe this faggy gm banned me when I have a daily quest and this stupid hunter wouldn't let me in! I'm going to complain about it on this other account and OMG IT WOULD BE SO FUNNY IF IT WAS THE SAME GUY LOL".
As if being a total fucking nerd isn't enough, he has a severe lack of friends to do stuff with. When I have friends over and we're going out, he asks "what are we doing tonight?" and enjoys tagging along to bars and stuff. Last weekend he started watching basketball in the living room so I grabbed a beer and went to my room to watch something that I want. Right after this, my buddy who's in the city for the weekend comes out of the bathroom, heads into the living room for a second, turns around and comes into my room with the case of beer and we just watch tv and bullshit as if nothing happened. Like a sad child, my roommate drives his remote control car into the room and follows after it so see what we're doing. Having had quite enough of him myself and knowing that my friend can't stand him, I kind of ignore him until he leaves. Then when we go back into the living room to find him playing warcraft, he asks if we're done "touching dinks". Yeah, being an immature little baby is going to make us want your company. None of my friends like him which makes his tagging along that much worse. He is constantly calling good looking girls ugly or fat when they are neither, which brings me to my next complaint. The guy is a 20 year old virgin who likes to act as if he's the most experienced guy in the world and that gives him the right to be extremely picky with girls. He is always telling me how fat some of the girls from high school have gotten and when I see them they look fine. He gossips like a girl. He is a virgin because he's "saving it for marriage", but nonetheless, he tells us that he'd like to take down every tall and skinny girl we see. He's also one of those fun people that like to ask stupid questions during movies. One of the best things about him though is his mispronunciation and improper usage of words. A queue is a "kway" and consideration is constellation. I wish he did more stuff like this because it's funny instead of just annoying.
Obviously he's not ALL bad and would be a lot more tolerable if he wasn't such a fucking dork most of the time, but I'm still very, very happy to be going home for Christmas holidays. Does anyone else have annoying roommates? :O
edit: Oh yeah, he's unemployed right now so he can dedicate ALL of his time to warcraft. Also, I have a temporary second roommate for a bit and this is one of my good friends, so there's that, I guess.
