... why argue about baking cookies? Just have everyone with different opinions bake their own batch. Then there's no need to argue, everyone has cookies.

[Xantalos]

Because one person's a chef and arguments about technique.
Goddammit people this is why I don't do homework upstairs.

[Helgoland]

I'm sitting and watching as several people in my house have vigirous arguments about how to bake cookies at after midnight.

When else would you bake cookies?

[Flying Dice]

I almost think I'm on the verge of snapping and throttling my roommate in a fit of passive-aggressive pique, and over the silliest little things. Guy is constantly sniffing, snorting, gulping, heavy-breathing, shaking up bottles of water, stomping around in the wee hours of the morning, stuff like that. It's almost like it's calculated to drive me crazy, and the only thing saving me is a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Absolutely bizarre; it's as if he's never lived around people and doesn't understand how--a feasible possibility, though, given what I know of him. It's taking a not-insignificant portion of my self-control to not retaliate and keep being quiet when I'm awake after or before him. I don't like being passive-aggressive. :x

[Bouchart]

Start chewing on some crushed ice to annoy him.

[Dutchling]

That's just childish.

You should pee on him during his sleep.

[kaijyuu]

Maybe you should talk to him about it.

You can express annoyance and discontentment with someone's actions without attacking them.

[Flying Dice]

I, and our suitemates, have already been down this road with other habits of his, like the whole "spitting in the shower" thing. Frankly it's easier to just listen to music constantly than have a talk with him about every one of these (admittedly minor) annoyances. Maybe I'm being overly sensitive, IDK; nobody I've roomed with before was like this, but none of them were exactly normal either. Point, though, is that it's in here rather than the rage thread because I'm less angry and more baffled that someone could get to this point in life without understanding that living in close proximity to other people is different from living alone. :|

Look on the bright side, at least he's not a hyper-prideful chauvinist racist addict redneck who alternates between wanting to fight you and loudly practicing guitar every day.

[kaijyuu]

* kaijyuu acts pretty much the same way, with people or without people.

Though I don't play my music through speakers anymore, even though I have the capacity to. Maybe I actually have learned that lesson

"spitting in the shower"

Curious; what's wrong with this? Unless he's spitting chewing tobacco or something.

[Bauglir]

"spitting in the shower"

Bah. How else am I supposed to brush my teeth?

[Zangi]

Snow, so much, started shoveling around my house 3 hours ago. still not done.   
Cleared the porch, knock off around 6 ft by 6 ft section of snow on roof.... porch has more then twice the snow before I cleared it the first time.  Still got way more roof to do.

[Eotyrannus]

I can see it fine - maybe one of your eyes has fallen out?

One of the exchange students at my school is apparently the Exchange Student From Beyond Space And Time. His name is pronounced 'Malay', but he spells it M`leh.
