PSA: WE AREN'T LISTENING!

[Cogman]

So my room-mate, a construction management major, is potentially one of the most annoying I've had thus far.

He doesn't STFU, Ever. I mean, he even talks in his sleep! When watching a movie, working on a project, ect. I can't stand being in the same room as him because he will keep trying to talk to me.

him:"Oh, thats the thing-a-migige"
me:"Mmhm"
him:"My brother once worked on this thing-a-majig for 3 weeks it was so awesome then he took his troubled youth out to a BBQ, that was AMAZING. I have 6 extra toes and a sugery when I was two, I like pie and cake. We are working on class projects this week they are so hard....."

(he'll go on like that for an hour if not more. Whats worse is that he isn't even original on his subjects. It is always exactly the same conversation.)

Heck, you would think he'd get the hint when NOBODY responds to what he is saying. But noo, he just lets his jaw flap like there is no tomorrow. In fact, he will just get louder and louder, almost like a 2 year old screaming for attention.

There are other trivial annoying things that he does, but everyone has them. I just find it so distracting. A conversation is good every once in a while, not while I'm working on a project.

Shut up dude.

interrupt him every chance you get with something random

"i like waffles"

"orly? did i tell you i like waffles?"

"hey how do you like your waffles? <don't give him a chance to respond> me, I like mine like a dessert waffle."


or maybe something REALLY awkward?

"hey, i got this weird rash on my taint, do you think it'll go away soon? It's been like, 6 months"

I'll take that PSA and raise you a PSA to ignore my PSA if that PSA isn't what you want to read.

I knew this one girl who always had to one up you and made stuff up for the purpose of it. I think it got to a point where her dad was narcoleptic, had cancer in about every part of his body, was a pilot, and a bunch of other ridiculous crap.

7/10. Not enough anger. I can sense you are reaching your breaking point, but by letting out this small bit of steam you have only delayed the inevitable.

 

[Mo0o]

Do you ever mention it to him?

You should have told her "Oh yeah? I knew this girl that is much better than you at fellatio".

I work with a person like that. She is irrafuckingtating to talk to. She rambles on about the most meaningless shit and to top it off she talks in this monotone whiney ass voice.

Edit: And I'll go in the next office to answer the phone and she keeps on talking....yada...yada...yada.

Edit: And then she'll walk in my office and start talking to me, the whole time looking at my computer screen, I guess to see what I'm up to or to see if we have any common interests or something....

Too much PSA is a bad thing 🙁

I've known people like that. Tune them out, just smile and nod, maybe chuckle occasionally when it seems appropriate.

That wouldn't work out too well for me, since she looked like a horse
