The sound of my morbidly obese roommates scraping of his spoon against his bowl
is MAKING-ME-VIOLENT.......

To top that off, I almost choked him to death when he was using metal utensils on ....a teflon frying pan, ( a good one, too ) which I have REPEATEDLY asked him not to do...


GOD I can't wait till this fucking lease ends, and it's just me again...

Sorry for the rant

1. Hmmmm....
You need to get out for a while... and take that teflon with you.

I never could stand having roommates. I have the all time top 3 evil, bad roommate stories. Three I tell you. The memories never go away.. Oh, they fade but they are never gone. Get me the sharp knife so I can cut that part of my brain out.

2. The hell of it is, about 95 percent of what is in the kitchen belongs to me
it came from my last apartment ( long...LONG story ) and the pans are just the tip of the frigging iceberg...

I have bowls that are missing, nobody knows what happened to them, but they are just...missing. Again, nice, big white ceramic bowls my brother gave to me when he moved. There used to be four...now there are two.

Two of my soup pots have burn marks on the bottom of them ( Revere Ware ) but no one will own up to it.

My futon ( once again, a pretty nice piece of furniture ) has scrapes and chips on the armrests. Again, nobody will own up to it.

I have TV dinner trays that these other bastards will help themselves to, but there is always food film on them, and I have to end up wiping these clean myself..

Nearing my wits end

3. Maybe
your fat friend does not understand that this is going to end badly... Perhaps removing your special items from the kitchen and leaving photos of them in their place with hostage notes made from cut out letters would be a nice hint. Just lock the pistola cabinet.

4. .....
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: I like your idea...if I take this stuff away, nobody here will be able to cook a damn thing...didn't think of that! Maybe then the appreciation will kick in....

:D By the way...this isn't my first time renting....I thought I would mention that. I've held three different apartments ( one completely by myself ) so I know what it's like.

These guys? It's their first time away from mommy and daddys place, so clearly they have much to learn. For example, the fact that you can break a lease agreement when the landlord says you can bring in A cat, and turn around and bring in a second one ( apparently, with no repercussions ) These are the type of fuck-nuts I'm dealing with.

I know the way it works...they don't; and when I try to explain it to them, they give the impression that I am bearing down on them and trying to sound superior....but that's another story.

6. How old is
Blimpy the chimp? How many people do you live with? I would rather get a little trailer and live in it than ever live with a roommate again. I learned the hard way.

50. Rubens painted...
As many of his paintings feature full-figured, voluptuous women, the word "Rubenesque" (meaning plump or fleshy, yet not "fat," and used exclusively to describe women) is derived from his last name.

11. Actually...the OP stated that he was "morbidly obese"
sadly, this is not far from the truth. All he does is sit in front of the T.V and EAT EAT EAT EAT

Or on his Playstation.....while eating, of course

Come to think of it...I don't recall seeing him when he was not putting food in his mouth.

But the issue of the OP is just a vent....I'm sorry if you took some kind of offense to it, there was no offense intended to anyone here

20. So... when is morbidly obese
not fat?

It is what it is.

I am fat.

I am not thrilled with it but I am not heavy or plump or chubby... It's called fat. I guess I could have said adapose tissue.

But saying "Your adapose tissue friend" does not have the same ring to it as "Your fat friend."

21. I do indeed have a lock on my bedroom door...but I'm not sure why I would
have to check under my bed for condiments. Nobody enters my room, and I will KNOW when someone has ( let's say I got a system ).

If I find out that someone has entered my room when I am not there, then that person will be eating lunch through a tube

I would have to hoist that fucker at least five feet into the air just so he could fit under there!

35. Oh yes, good one!
'Morbidly obese' is always a running gag.

But how could your tiny, slim hands get around his throat to 'almost choke him to death?' Do you have such large hands?

you is or either you ain't.

the ultra conservative Republican ( God, why did I agree to share a house with such a person )? He's gonna bitch about something tonight, and since I'm the first person he sees when he walks in the back door...he's just a miserable son-of-a-bitch who hates his job and his personal life and takes out his frustration on his ballot. I'll rip his fucking head off if he starts on me tonight..

You people may see me on Faux News tonight.....
