The last 3 pages or so is why I still live with my parents. Though, in theory I had a roommate for a while, since my ex-gf was living with me. Though I don't have any horror stories on the level of the rest of you.

I think he's on a monthly plan, at least I hope so. If not :bomb:
I have been tempted to confiscate it until he pays Jonathan back the 300+ in debt he's raking up. Or at least unplug his internet since it's in here.
EDIT: esp. since he hasn't paid his portion of the cable bill for the past 6 months (part of his debt with Jonathan)

Obviously this guy doesn't understand the idea of delayed gratification. I sense many bad things in the the future for this guy if he keeps on doing this.

I left home to come out to MO for school in August 1988. Last time I spent time under the parents' roof for more than a vacation/visit was August 1990, at the end of my last summer at home. From that point forward, I've never been under my parents' roof. Damn glad I did it that way.

Roommate issues are a pain in the ass, though I'd rather deal with that than living with the parents. At least, killing your roommate is usually a public service, if they're that kind of pain in the ass.
 
Let's lighten the mood with this infograph.

It's within your rights to do so.

If the cable bill (and cable internet) is in your name, you can easily turn him off until he ponies up the money.

Password protect the router, limit the addresses it'll recognize to only be all the PC's + game consoles, save his PC. He'll get the point quickly.

Great, a convex security mirror, so that can watch the people gambling on both sides of the river, or catch the people doing lewd & lascivious acts on the Arch grounds. :roll:

Really I was just gonna unplug him from the router and lock my door. :lol:
We do that when he's not home anyways cause he sucks bandwidth.

That's not so subtle. ;)

If he's wired to the router, find out the MAC addresses of all the devices, save yours, and have your router only work with those MAC addresses.

He'll be pulling his hair out while he's trying to figure out why the Internet isn't working for him.
 
[quote name='shrike4242']karsh, I've had a first class package take over a week's time to show up from here to CT. I think it was 8 or 9 delivery days before it arrived. Which ticked me off to no end, since I've had first class packages get dropped off at my PO on Saturday early afternoon and make it either coast on Monday.

I'm sure it's stuck somewhere and will surface shortly. How was it being shipped?[/QUOTE]

Oh, it's being shipped standard, so it's well within the timeframe, I just find it ridiculous that it left somewhere that's like 30 minutes away on Saturday but didn't make it to my house on Monday.

I did mention this is the guy that seems to hack into the router and change it so it benefits him even though it's password protected. I think he uses a password decoder.
 
Anyone happen to know a program to convert RM files to AVI or other media types? I keep finding ones, but they're only shareware so they will just do half the file or put an ugly ass watermark on it.

"hack into the router" :roll:

Yeah, unplugging him seems like the more direct route.
 
I'm definitely enjoying adding to my website, as I just added a "What are you?" page for all of those quizzes that are on the web. Feel free to check it out.
 
I finally figured out how to hook myself up with a ringtone. It's now Ome Henk's festive tune "Opblaaskrokodil".

Yeah, it rocks.
 
I almost got killed today!

There was some fucking psycho on the road who was swerving all over the place, cutting people off and driving in the middle of the road....swerved about 2 feet in front of me. I saw him look in the mirror at me, so I flicked him off-- noticed he was laughing. WTF?

worst part is, I didn't have my phone with me. I would've called 911 on that bitch.

So then, should I rant and rave about "SuperFruitsNaruto", fruit juice, and other such things? They seem to be recurring themes. That'd be a change of pace, right?

Whatever the fuck you want to do. You don't have to ask me, as I couldn't care less. ;) I don't post about Naruto or most anime here anymore since WSB and Zion bitched enough for everyone. :lol: Enjoy your newly founded freedom. :)

SuperFruitsNaruto, around here, might have some different definitions. :shock:

It's not that I exactly mind the occasional segue into an anime discussion, but it was the incessant page-after-page-every-fucking-night-for-weeks-on-end weight of it that was the issue until it was finally taken to its own topic.

What monday night game. Remember the Titans is on right now.
 
[quote name='Admiral Ackbar']God someone shoot this mondy night football crew. I hate this crew.[/QUOTE]

Since 99% of the talk will be about TO, we'd want to shoot whatever crew was out there.
 
I'm thinking about getting some tickets to see the Cards take on the Titans when my friend makes his way down here. The ~$50 tickets seem good since they'd be near the 30-40 yard lines and not all that far from the field. I'll have to see if my friend and roommate will want to go.
 
The thiesman, buck, and bobo the clown crew. Individually they may be digestable but combined they're anathema.

The worst part is that they/'ve been together on ESPN for years yet theyh are by FAR the worst announcing crew in the history of the NFL. They constantly reverse themselves, say stupid things, miss plays, miss penalties, talk about nothing while the game is going on, and rank up there high on the annoyness factor.

Is that in the new stadium?

No, I believe that opens up next year. They're still at Sun Devil Stadium, which is right up the street from here, so it's not a long drive.
 
I bought my books today for next semester and it was crazy to see a book all about level design with the unreal engine next to my anthropology book
 
[quote name='smalien1']Whats better-
Battle Royale Novel?
Battle Royale Comic?[/QUOTE]

From what I've heard from others, the novel is better. I've only read the novel myself, though, so I can't say from first-hand experience.
 
[quote name='mtxbass1']Can anyone explain the mystery that is slidecage? How can someone be so stupid?[/QUOTE]

Here's a few possiblities for you to ponder.

1. Genetics.
2. Copious amounts of drugs
3. Severe Head Trauma.

Its best you let it go. Better minds than yours or mine have pondered this yet still fell victim to madness.

Hes a human anomaly. Lets leave it at that.

I think the trick is not only is he stupid but also incredibly greedy. I like to think of him as gollum, except his precious changes every 5 seconds.

I seriously wouldn't doubt it if he was born with a genetic flaw that caused a severe head trama due to copious amounts of drugs his parents probably used during pregnancy. He is only the third user to gain a spot on my ignore list.
 
Man, poor Mattt Damon has no range. I thought this Brothers Grim movie mught show off some new acting talent of his. But it';s basically Matt Damon in a bad accent.

I know right...

Pop311, Slidecage and Kastides are all on my list. A few others have come and gone and others have come awfully damn close.
