timefly posted:Time to complain about my boyfriend's friends. His weird friend is getting worse I think. He walks around with his hair super dirty and greasy, in a mullet with bald patches, tangled in two rat's nests at the front and back of his head. It's almost painful to look at him, I actually try to avoid seeing him out of the corner of my eye because it depresses me. He reminds me of the two people I knew while they were dying. Is that first friend named Cam, because that sounds like someone I was friends/roommates with in my late teens/early 20s. Friendship came to an end when he asked for a hug one night when my boyfriend was in the bathroom, and he started whispering about how he was in love with me the whole time and I should dump my BF for him. He had a bar of soap in the shower that had deep canyons running through where the water had eroded it away because he never used it.

Whenever she comes over we both have to walk her from her car to the door, and again when she leaves, even during the day. Probably because she's insanely racist, as she's always talking about how she'd never date a black guy. It's just reality, I don't know what she thinks she can bring to a relationship and have someone hold her hand and support her. No, she isn't hot.

My boyfriend has other, better friends but we humor these two because they go way back and seem to like us. But their presence stresses me out big time, especially the guy. I could make fun of his odd mannerisms for hours tbh.

You can just tell your bf that you do not want them around you and he can hang out with them on his own own time.

Um, OK, sorry, not sure how that came across to upset people. I guess I meant that they have been mutual friends for a while so if they come over sometimes I don't mind, and that I was just venting about their obnoxious qualities. In the case of the first guy he stresses me out because I'm sorry to see him depressed. I didn't mean to sound like I hate and fear them. My roommate in college threw away everything I had bought on a trip to Goodwill while I was at class because she was afraid of what might be on them, and seemed to think Goodwill was basically a trash pile timefly has a new favorite as of 07:12 on Jun 2, 2017 |

I mean I wouldn't go out of my way to spend time with either of them alone but sometimes they want to come hang out in the living room for an hour at the end of the day when I'm already relaxing in there, so I'd have to hide in the bedroom or get up and go somewhere else till they leave to avoid them, and it'd be weird. Or we run into them at the bar or something. I didn't go into detail but just to clarify I'm not loving stupid

I once ended up smelling like that sour piss smell that morbidly obese people smell like after driving a rental power chair back to our shop when this giant lady rented it for a few hours. I was sitting on this chair for no more than 3 minutes. I scrubbed the stupid chair after the fact multiple times, and the air in the rental booth still smelled like it days later. The chair was officially out of commission for a week until the smell finally dissipated. One of my coworkers walked back there after a few hours and asked why it smelled so strongly like fat people. If you sit where that smelly gently caress sits, you are going to smell like him and so will all your stuff for days.

Lol, on this forum, someone being socially awkward is like the worst sin. I think if you had described the first guy as being a violent rapist or abuser or con man or whatever instead of being weird, sad and lonely, the response from the posters here would have been milder.

The response is totally disproportionate though. Here on Something Awful we often treat people who are weird, sad, and lonely as committing a crime against society on par with Hitler, Apartheid South Africa, etc. IMO, they probably more appropriately should be pitied instead of reviled.

It's just projecting. Most of the people laying on all the hate are former socially awkward/weird/sad/lonely people who finally got a modicum of success in life and proceed to poo poo on everyone else who hasn't yet, patting themselves on the back for bootstrapping themselves out of their problems at the same time.

Something odd that I tend to do is get really infantile internally with certain items, like when I need to go get more scouring pads for washing dishes, I always think of them as "scrubbies", like "Oh right I need to buy more scrubbies later". It's just what I call them in my head and I have no idea why. Anyone else have that kind of oddity?

If you are older than 13 get on the loving road. Where I live there are a lot of shared bike/pedestrian paths. One side of the road will be an ordinary footpath and the other will be shared. Dickheads still ride their bikes on the pedestrian-only side.

I used to work at a laser tag place that held birthday parties. The package came with two large pizzas. Sometimes the parents would order a third, then become completely baffled that they were being charged more. How do people like this live until adulthood AND manage to reproduce?

Nah dude the OP has posted like 5 times about how weird this guy is and how uncomfortable he makes her etc. If you're at the point where you're making regular posts on an internet forum about how much you hate spending time with someone, maybe you should not let them into your house.

Pretty much. Also, from life experience- hanging around creepy people who make you uncomfortable in an effort not to rock the boat isn't worth it. Life's too short to spend time around people like that. Currently, I do not spend time or allow my own BF's bestie in my house, because he sends me into a seething rage within five minutes of being around me. My BF is free to spend time with him whenever he pleases, just not in my home. It works out pretty good.

It took years for me to finally be an rear end in a top hat to a stranger over something I've dealt with every other loving day. My full name is one letter off from a very famous TV character. And today it got brought up by some frat dude in a bookstore of all places. The lady behind the desk was really nice and I came off as a huge sperg.  Hi I have a pickup for Rolo. Hey bro did you say your name was [Person]? Jesus... no. Anyone ever ask you that? Every time anyone sees my ID or asks for my name. Every single time. Thanks.Sometimes they'll just start spouting references and quotes of the show like I have it memorized. I'm not the fictional character, what the hell are you expecting me to do in this situation? Learn from me: if you ever meet someone with a name like Harry Botter or something, just leave them alone about it. Rolo has a new favorite as of 03:31 on Jun 4, 2017 |

veni veni veni posted:The existence of companies like blue apron and hello fresh seriously irritates me. This reminds me: people who have lots of money who tell you to do stuff, completely oblivious to the value of money for poor people. Similarly, people who have had a good job for a long time or got a good job easily (doctor, family business, etc) try to give you job advice. Doctor and husband Senior video game programmer @ WB games: "omg we got this new thing called Blue Apron, you should totally try it! They bring all the ingredients to your door like steak already chopped up, you just put it in the pan! It's a fun way to spend the evening together!" Me "I just worked a 14 hour shift and made $100 before tax, tomorrow I work another one yes let me make a relaxing dinner at home after my 9-5 jo-----hahahahahaha Old guy who worked for the city and has family connections: "just walk in, they'll give you a job!" (Uh no) "Why don't you work at the Suburban library?" (Suburban libraries don't hire 30 year olds with tattoos and piercings and a worthless art degree. They hire little old ladies who work 10 hours a week. Furthermore, the city I work in's minimum wage is way higher than in the suburbs). "[generic job advice that applies to other fields, not art]" (I have explained many times that that stuff doesn't apply to art jobs but they don't listen and keep giving irrelevant advice). "Don't work so many hours, you'll overwork yourself!" (How the gently caress else am I going to pay my bills?) "Just drive Uber!" (I have a 2 door car, am female, and 5'0" and 120lbs. Yes Uber is a good idea  And so on. E: the first person (doctor; specifically, gynecologist) likes to talk about "those blacks" who are poor but apparently have gold chains and iPhones while delivering their babies. My extended family is a bunch of racists and "bootstraps" types. I refused to go to the last get-together because doctor&programmer had just come back from their 6-month long trip literally around the world and obviously were going to talk about it. No they did not need to find new jobs because their old jobs just re-hired them no questions asked. Yay. Thin Privilege has a new favorite as of 06:37 on Jun 4, 2017 |
