My roommate wants to watch Central Intelligence starring Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart with me, but I don't have the heart to tell him that I don't want to spend two hours watching Central Intelligence starring Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart with him. How do I defuse this situation? I don't want to watch this movie.

Thanks.

My roommate said "Are you ready to watch this move?" and I said "Yes, let's do it." How do I get myself out of this?

Do you have a window to jump out off? And if so, is it safe to land? If not: Throw pillows on the ground and use a shopping bag as a parachute if it allows for a safe escape.

When asked what's the matter, quickly defuse the situation by saying that you'd rather jump out of a window than watching this movie, then proceed to doing so to prove your point.

you gotta be assertive op

assertiveness is a good thing to have in your social repertoire. address your friend's needs while also actively advocating for your needs.

for example, op, acknowledge to your roommate your appreciation that he wants to spend time with you at the big screen film cinema but that you don't want to watch central intelligence starring dwayne the rock johnson and america's black friend kevin heart. suggest that instead you two should see a different film at the place or maybe do something else you both might enjoy partaking in on this fine evening. alternatively maybe just make a rain check for another night if you just don't want to chill with him atm.

be direct and honest in how you want to see your evening play out while still respecting his desire to spend time with you.

or just run out into slow moving traffic and spend the night at the ER instead it's up to you :)

so I watched Central Intelligence starring Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart with my roommate.

It wasn't very good but it was tolerable. The movie starts with a Naked Fat The Rock singing in the shower. The script was mostly shlock with a couple of good jokes. AMA

Also The Rock kind of looks like Obama.

Next time, the trick is to use your coat to make it seem like you're bigger than you really are. Don't approach your roomie. Just look big at a distance and make a lot of noise until he decides you're not worth the effort and goes to find someone else to watch Central Intelligence with. DO NOT PLAY DEAD. THIS DOES NOT WORK AND COULD POSSIBLY MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE THE TARGET AUDIENCE FOR CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE.

You simply need to offer to drive and then pretend to be lost for the next hour and a half.

Maybe you could tell your roommate to meet you there and then not show up.

Tell him you want to watch central intelligence tonight at 8pm, then leave the house before then, and call your roomate on the phone, and then explain to him why you don.t want to watch central intelligence.

I have a technique that relies on trust and your bond with your flatmate.

What you need to do is order a couple large pizzas, fizzy drinks and ice creams for dessert. Offer to shout the whole meal as a sign of how much you value your friendship.

After you finish the pizzas and start eating the ice creams this is your chance. Make eye contact and DO NOT BREAK IT. This is important.

Maintain eye contact, move slightly closer and lean forwards and whisper these words: "gently caress off dickhead"

1. Obtain ping pong ball.
2. Cut ping pong ball in half.
3. Decorate each half to look like open, human eyes.
4. Agree to watch whatever dumbass movies your roommate wants to watch with you. (he actually wants to gently caress you, not watch a movie)
5. Sit on couch, put on ping pong eyes.
6. Take an ambien.

If you cant find a ping pong ball, googly eyes will work, but you have to work harder to sell the illusion.
