• Roommate Woes
    40 replies, posted
So I'm in my first year of college, and my roommate is an honest to god hipster who loves nothing more than to strum really loud on his guitar for 3 or 4 hours straight. His second passion is playing his horrible screechy 8 bit screaming hipster music at full blast with reckless abandon of anyone elses personal music preferences or common courtesy. He does this in public areas as well. Not to mention the fact that he randomly decided to become a full blown smoker half-way through the first quarter despite putting "Does not smoke" on the roommate application forms. I'm bound to a dorm for the rest of the year so I can either go through a fuckton of pain in the ass RA help sessions before getting moved to another room with some other possibly annoying as hell roommate, tough it out for another 3 months, or pay an extra 400-800 dollars to live in an apartment and just randomly move out one day. All attempts at telling him to put on some headphones or stop playing his guitar lead to him doing it for 5 minutes then going back to blasting his music or strumming his guitar like he was jacking off a horse. When I listen to music I listen to it with headphones on, regardless of whether or not he's here. I don't clutter the room and I don't do shit I know would annoy people. I ask him if he'd mind if I turned off the fluorescent overhead lights, and when I go to talk to my girlfriend on the phone I take it outside or go in the bathroom. I'm starting to lose my cool at this point. What would you collegiate veterans recommend I do?
Kill him to death
[QUOTE=NickFury666;20375605]Kill him to death[/QUOTE] No, get him down to 1 HP then throw a Pokeball at him
[QUOTE=MisterMooth;20375623]No, get him down to 1 HP then throw a Pokeball at him[/QUOTE] what if you have a master ball?
i say conform to his ways and listen to his sweet guitar skills, i bet you are just jealous of how good he is
besides, koffing isnt that high level anyway, you'd be good with 10-15 hp

Zebras only attack at night.
[QUOTE=DrVivi;20375638]Zebras only attack at night.[/QUOTE] not true, i was attacked by a zebra this afternoon
[QUOTE=gameplaya89;20375636]he's too hardcore[/QUOTE] yeah maybe your roomate should be looking for a new roomie
I bet hes a pretty nice guy, you should get to know him before you shit talk him on the internet learn to appreciate some good music too
Learn to play bongo drums, gain his trust and when he is least expecting it, rape him. He'll probably leave then.
Yes, bongo drums are the only company you need.
I don't get why they put you in the same room as someone you don't even know. Anyhow, remove his guitar's strings and re-string it left handed.
Take him to a supermarket I dunno why But you have to start it somewhere

Though I am way ahead of myself here, because ole jimmy was one cool dude. This guy is probably some wannabe faggot. OP... don't fuck around. If this guy is causing any grief to YOUR studies, get rid of his ass.

[QUOTE=NickFury666;20375627]what if you have a master ball?[/QUOTE] Save it for something better, like an accountant or high ranking military officer, or scientist, or hooker.
guy sounds like an asshole, can't you report him for smoking after marking he doesn't?
Just talk to him and tell him what you think he needs to change in regards to his habits. If he's a dick and flat out refuses then you can always file a formal complaint or whatever.
I agree just talk to him about it. if he's reasonable he'll be like "k"
You should be thankful you are getting a good education.
Put a hole in his amp or whatever he's using to pollute the air.
Walk around him naked. Every night.
Play your music louder than his, Steal and destroy his cigarettes, Complain to dorm people, Shank dat fucka in da kidneys boss. Those are a few possible solutions.

ugh, college hippies
[QUOTE=Jallen;20377911]How the shit would you know anyone when you first go to college?[/QUOTE] You could steal the collage's records beforehand, and go to each of the new students houses and meet them. Or get your whole town to apply.
[QUOTE=Jallen;20377911] How the shit would you know anyone when you first go to college?[/QUOTE] Have student halls. People are put into flats, say 8 to a flat. But everyone gets their own bedroom and shares the kitchen/living room areas.
[QUOTE=demisemiquaver;20387600]Have student halls. People are put into flats, say 8 to a flat.

Of course in a second or third year it is possible that you will know people, but otherwise it's near impossible to pair people who know each other as room mates.
[QUOTE=Evanlution;20377662]Walk around him naked. Every night.[/QUOTE] This may actually be a good idea.
