5. I suppose you could say that.
He's an idiot (talks about cheating on her on public webspace) and talks like Chris from Family Guy. :shrug:

9. That sounds like a hardship. Unusual punishment or something.

10. Admittedly, I do get high-strung by simply being in his presence.
He's been here less than a half-hour...has farted four times. Thinks it's the funniest thing in the world.

It's gonna be a long 3 days in our 14x11 room. ;)

12. LOL.
Believe me, after extended periods of time with him, I certainly don't act worthy of canonization... :rofl:

Yeah, he flunked out of community college and works at a Circuit City four hours away. I don't know how he holds down a job taking so much time off, but :shrug:. I avoid interaction with him as often as possible.

14. I'm thinking about it....
:toast:

My dad has already threatened to come up here and tell him off him several times (he's usually my sounding board on this issue), and ever so often, I've been tempted to let him.

20. You wouldn't believe how close I came last time he was here.
I'm in the top bunk, and after I went up for the night, he decided to put his t-shirt over one of the rungs of my ladder. My alarm went off in the morning, and I climbed out of bed half-asleep only to slip on the t-shirt and fall 2-3 feet to the floor. That...was not good. He's lucky he didn't try anything with me that day--I don't know what I would have done.

6. Oh, yes.
And I'll be using them.

I've got a ton of crap to do this week, so they're going to have to deal with me being in here on the computer. If by some miracle I get it done, my other friends have offered me refuge in their rooms.

25. How come your roommate
gets to put this guy up for THREE DAYS in your (collective) tiny space???
Do you not have the right to refuse to be subjected to such an intrusion?
:freak:

3. Oh no.
I empathize, though haven't had to put up with such a thing for a few years. It was always cause for similar furious reaction on my part, sometimes a bit irrational. Can you escape?

What's the story with the boyfriend? Why the rant? Messy? Scary? Loud, noisy sounds that you really don't want to be hearing? Or just another body in the house?

Sorry if you've posted such details before, but just wanted to let you know that I feel your pain!

7. Well,
he's stupid (intelligence-wise and common sense-wise), he cheats on her, he keeps demanding to know why I "study so much," he's...how shall I put this...dirty?

I really am willing to ignore him if he would just ignore me. Unfortunately, he doesn't. :scared:

Sorry for venting here...I just don't have anywhere else to go at the moment. :hi:
