FlintlockJazz: Should I be worried that I didn't even realise I was acting just like Max then? Nah, who doesn't love everyone's favourite fuzzy psychotic lagomorph? :D
You crack me up, little buddy.
whenever my roommate does something like that i count it as a credit that i can use next time i want to sexile him or something similar
What I tend to do when I'm bothered by noises as I'm trying to go to sleep is to turn on an electric fan or a fan heater (in fan mode only, no heat) near me.

That creates a steady, low humming noise that will usually drown out the other noises, while not really bothering me (as it's so steady it just seems to fade away after a while).

Something similar here... I turn on my lappy, its GPU cooler calms me down.

(Its a gaming lappy so its somewhat loud)
Since my reputation as a human being on this site is probably lackluster anyway, I'd like to tell you a story.

My freshman year of college I had this roommate who was a druggie douche bag. The beds in the rooms are about 4 feet apart, so not a lot of space, and several times he brought a girl back and had loud drunken sex, usually at 4 or 5 in the morning. I had to get up at 7 to shower, eat, and take the bus to the campus.

I reasoned that it was college, so I just dealt with it the first few times, but on the morning of one of my finals he starts this shit. I had eaten some bad chinese food, and didn't fall asleep until 2 in the morning, mind you I had to get up at 7.

When my alarm went off, I got up, and on my guitar amp (Marshall amps forever!) was the tip of a used condom. I was already pissed, tired, and still felt like I was going to have diarrhea, so the Boyle Rage (a term for a genetic hulk out my family enjoys) came forth.

I won't go into everything I said, but I ended up calling the girl "Daddy's little WHORE!" and told my roommate if he ever did anything like this again I would take a cheese grater to his scrotum.

When I got back from class he and all of his things were gone.

I ended up getting academic probation for a year, but it was totally worth it. Plus I had a single for the last 3 weeks of school and never saw that guy again. So...


I WIN!!!!

That was simply fucking epic. You DO win, and win hard indeed.

+1.

Just one question - what IS academic probation? Not being allowed near cheese graters?

It's where university professors take you up into their spaceship and perform horrible experiments.

Academic Probation. Well, all it basically is, is a warning that if you do anything wrong while under it you "could" face disciplinary action. Which could lead to being expelled, but you have to have done something really bad, and have repeated offenses.

A warning. Plain and simple.

Oh, and I had to sign a paper that stated I would stay away from him. Not a full on restraining order, just an agreement between myself, my roommate, and the university itself. So I don't think I have a record or anything with law enforcement.

Hahaha @ Runehamster. Kind of like Cartman and that satellite probe?

Cool, but seriously, couldn't you have defended your actions by explaining the whole situation? I mean, FFS it's about RESPECT innit? He blatantly disregarded yours so you were in the right to retaliate right? And you didn't even use physical violence at all. =\

Who? o.O

I've just been watching far too many X-files lately to pass up a straight line like that.

Yeah, but the threat of violence was enough, I guess. Also, he clearly thought I would be true to my word. I did tell the school I did not have a cheese grater in my room, but they didn't think it was funny.

@Runehamster
