Why does it seem like everytime I have roommates there is some underlying hatred for one of them that isn't exposed until a week after I move in? Granted when this has happened the hatred has been justified, but why does one douche always have to live in a house?
This time it is a guy that is worse than a know-it-all. He kind of keeps it to himself, more disregarding your opinion on anything rather than offering his own. We had an argument over politics the other night and he started a response with "You know I've read a lot of books, learned a lot about history, spent a lot of time studying this in school, and..."
Yea buddy. Like I have never read a book. His response was forgettable and the beef of it was basically that statement. Then he'd sit in silence and come out trying to summarize my argument sarcastically, except his summary was completely false and I'd call him on it. Then he'd roll his eyes and keep to himself while the adults talked.
Another time we were discussing TV shows and he went on about how the West Wing was so great. I kept my thoughts to myself on that one out of politeness, and mentioned how I liked My Name is Earl. Apparently that is too low-brow for him and I got a "Mmm..yea..." response before he continued on about how great a president Martin Sheen is.
Yes, I know where MySpace is. I just thought I'd rant here instead.
