Just read it. Incredible. This guy was absolutely insane. It should be a movie.

WARNING: Very graphic and bizarre.

2. It actually gets quite depressing near the end.
The guy is writhing in a bathtub with a saxophone and yelling psychotically.... scary

4. Where is the second half of the story?
All it says is "more to come late". Did I miss something?

8. I would have been out of there at the first "found" feces.
The guy writing this is a whimp. I couldn't allow myself to be in that situation.

9. near the end he reflects on why he didn't do anything
He feels remorse for letting his roommate get that way when he was really the only person who could help him. i thought that was interesting.

10. Did you ever read The Nanny Diaries?
Jed is probably the grown up version of the little boy left screaming for his nanny at the end. They were based on the true experiences of the two authors.

11. Good Gods!
If you keep clicking the links at the bottom of each page, the story continues...and continues...and continues...

At one point, a second poster said: "I don't think the phrase "Pics or it didn't happen" has ever been more applicable than now." I am almost inclined to agree. This story is SO disgusting it borders on the unbelieveable. Crazy freakin people in this world!

13. This guy sure put a lot of work into making a backstory, if fake
I don't know, I believe him.

14. Anything is possible...
and truth is often stranger than fiction, but another 'net legend may have been born and this wasn't that much work compared to some others.

Entire hoax sites have been built, and such things as welcome to www.whitehouse.org, Betty Bowers, and Landover Baptist have had vast amounts of sweat put into them and are well known here.

My personal favorite hoax, which was actually the subject of an investigation for animal abuse, is--

http://www.bonsaikitten.com/

If the story of the mad roommate does have a germ of truth to it, though, the end is truly upon us.

15. I read 6 pages and was quite shocked Jed did not bring out the gimp
Or have clothing made of human skin. I had a roomate once who would use pages out of my magazines to wipe his ass with. And that pissed me off. This guy I would not have been able to tolerate.
