Kronos, Phoenix, whatever the hell you call yourself nowadays: I forgot about the whole thing with Alexa lol. I was like hold up, why do you not like him? But yeah, that was ridiculous.
Seijika, I like your style. But he's crazy enough to do it back. As for an update on the situation, today was day 6 of not speaking. It's going relatively well. We stay out of each other's way, and all is well. It's a tad awkward, but awkward is much better than interaction, when it comes to this guy. |

You could always just torque his shit. |

I had this problem here in Iraq. I had to deal with my roommate for a total of 5 months. Too much too soon. I couldn't do it. I was lucky enough to fix that though.
My best advice for you is if you can't get out of it... go to your room or something. Lock your door if you can. |

The problem being, Vulkar, that Mike won't listen (not you, City). Mike is a complete ass. I honestly had no problem with him for a while, but once I hung out with him outside of school, I got very tired very quickly. Especially with a few things he said to my girlfriend.
He seems bipolar, except he's actually just an asshole. As for advice, City, Vulkar's is probably best. Keep your *annoying habits* (jay kay!) to a minimum, and just wait for Mike to dive off the deep end. You look like a good guy, and he's the Joker. Except an asshole. And--actually, I'll keep it to a minimum. Seriously, though. Good luck, City. |

I know that most universities have special roommate agreements which you have to follow, and that if one roommate breaks it, he can either get in trouble, with either fines, or possibly even being kicked out of a dorm.
So, if you have a roommate agreement, talk to your RA so that you and your roommate can resolve this issue. If there is no roommate agreement, then... Well, you have to live with this guy for the next two months. Have a conversation with him, and mention that you know you do some things he doesn't like, and that he also does things you don't like, and you'd like to make an arrangement to fix the problems both of you have. If that doesn't work, just wait until your roommate does something bad, and talk to your RA immediately. Like, no going to get dinner first. Let your RA show up with both of you are in your room at the same time so that the situation can be forcefully resolved. If your RA is any good, he'll take your side and find a way to fix the issue. |

Mike freaks out about the SMALLEST things, including but not limited to touching a glow stick, and having to drive down the same road twice.
But i hope that you have limited interaction with him for the duration of your semester |

I'm totally cool with making this an overall Mike hatefest.
However, I talked to Jon, my RA, this morning. He said the deadline to change roommates was the 17th. I explained the whole scenario, including what I said to him, and he advised me to just tough through it for a bit and see if it gets better. He said to come see him if it gets to the point where I really can't take it and he keeps bothering me. I like him and respect him, so I'll give it a shot, on his advice. |

*attests* Mike very often overacts and acts like an overall douche but, to not make this an overall mike hatefest (which it could turn out to be) i hope things run smoothly for a room exchange. |

So I've known for the last four weeks that this (choosing to room with the person that I did) was a HUGE mistake. But it all came to culmination today. I seriously can't take it anymore, and have every intention of speaking to my RA about this tomorrow, but I feel that a good ol' fashioned rant would do me some good to calm down right now.
So, my roommate, Mike, is an absolute nightmare. The sad part is that I brought this on myself. I actually requested him as my roommate. I have pretty bad social anxiety, and the thought of having to room with someone that I didn't know scared me to death. So, in a panic, I asked Mike if he wanted to room with me, five minutes before the deadline for roommate requests. Mike was someone I knew from high school. He has a bit of a reputation in our hometown, as Phoenix and Urban can attest, of being a HUGE asshole. However, he was someone that I knew, and I figured he would at least be tolerable if we had to live together the whole year. Boy, was I wrong. First of all, he likes the most AWFUL music. It's all weird, electronic, techno shit. If you're into that, I'm sorry for bashing it, but I REALLY can't stand it. However, he insists on blasting it whenever he's in the room. Oh, and here's the kicker. He also likes to sing, AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS, whenever his music is on. It drives me INSANE. He also bitches endlessly whenever I have mine on, and usually makes me turn it off. In addition to that, he is COMPLETELY inconsiderate. He has this knack of changing everything in the room the second he comes in. If I have the blinds down (which I do, I don't like sunlight), he puts them up. If I have the door closed, he opens it. And I tell him not to, and he comes up with ridiculous reasons about why, citing that my eyesight will suffer if I leave the blinds down, and that it's good for air circulation to have the door open. Even beyond that, he is knowingly and purposely a douchebag to people just for fun. And he finds it amusing. It's frustrating beyond belief. He also likes to put on music and open the blinds while I'm asleep. It's driving me crazy. Today, I lost it. It got to the point where he came in and I had the song I Don't Care by Fall Out Boy on. He decides to sing along to the song, at the top of his lungs, despite not knowing the words. So, instead, he decides to ad-lib about how "Awful" the song is, and how I'm stupid I am for liking this kind of music. That pissed me off enough, but I just put on my headphones and tuned it out. A few minutes later, I hear him yelling, so I take off the headphones, and he's screaming for me to stop sneezing and coughing, that it's getting on his nerves, and throws a box of Sudafed at me, telling me to take it so that I can "shut the hell up". This was too much for me, and I stood up, knocking my chair halfway across the room (not a big feat, the room is painfully small). Having enough, I screamed at him to shut the fuck up, as well as a few other choice obscenities that I will omit here. Then, pushing him out of the way, I stormed out of the room, slammed the door, and went outside, where I had a bit of an altercation with a brick wall (my bloody hand is evidence that the wall won). He had class about a half hour later, so I just went down and got some dinner, and went back to the dorm after. When I got back, I saw that his status was "Shut the fuck up!" -Mike Campbell (that's me, for those of you who don't know). Naturally, this made me angry. So I commented on it saying fuck you, etc. He responded with, LITERALLY, a five-page rant about how horrible of a person I am. I can't take this shit for a whole year. I'm talking to my RA tomorrow, to see if we can figure something out. |
