People That Piss You Off

I am living with an absolute nightmare of a boy here in halls. He's called Kenrick, and has just come over from Mumbai as an international student. I understand he's having a bit of a culture shock, I understand that he isn't used to the way we do thing, but for ****s sake, some of the things he gets up to are just ridiculous.

He gets food everywhere when he cooks (although seeing him blow up an egg in the microwave was pretty funny), he can't grasp the concept of washing up with a sponge and hot water - dishes invariably end up dirtier than when he started. The other day I left a packet of fags on the table to find that he had taken every single one and arranged them into a circle on the dinner table. He simulated sex with an elephant while we were trying to eat for some ****ing reason. If you're at the bar playing pool oron a quiz machine, he'll move balls around or tap the screen when you're working out an answer.

Its only been a month and we're trying to teach him but seriously, why me?

When I was in halls in my first year, we had a Chinese guy who literally never left his room the entire time we were there. We didn't even know what his name was till a month in when a letter addressed to him turned up. Some of his more bizarre moments included

1). The first ever night of university, his parents and twin brother stayed in his tiny room with him

2). He only ever ate ready meals-he literally had a freezer full of them-and he brought a microwave so he would only ever have to cook in his room

3). he walked around with weird orange shit stuck on his face

4). One time me and my then GF walked into the kitchen, and as soon as we did, he walked out, even though he was in the middle of washing up

5). The only time I ever had a conversation with him was getting back from a night out at about 3:30am to find him in the kitchen boiling 50 eggs-when I asked him why he said it was to snack on.

****ing fruit loop.

Good stuff boys, I'm moving into university halls next month and these things make me look forward to it. I love weird people.

Ignorant ****wits who flash their car lights at me at least 5 times a day presumably becuase they think I have my fog lights on. They're day running lights you twats!!

 

[Blue Maniac]

They're day running lights you twats!!

And they serve what purpose?

 

[LCFCmonkey]

Chavs in shitty cars who think that me overtaking them is a challenge to a race.

 

[Durham Fox]

And they serve what purpose?

I've no idea really. I assume they are some sort of safety feature.

used to happen when i had the volvo.
There's something like a 6% reduction in accidents, even more important with the darker winter days

Do you drive a hairdresser's car? Sounds very much like a 'look at me' feature.

I suppose that depends on your definition of hairdressers car.

I beleive 'DRL's' are EU law on all new cars from 2012 so just manufacturers meeting their obligations early I would think.

Bob Davis would take issue with that.

No then.

If you think its on all cars built from next year why would you think its a 'look at me' feature?

I had no idea 'til I read this.....

Looks like you'll be getting some company from January. Doubtless it'll make the news before then and become common knowledge.

They'll be compulsory on all new vehicle models from next year.


Bonkers!

It really depends whose statistics you read. Many people believe that they make motor-cyclists, cyclists and pedestrians more vulnerable. Some countries have now banned them because there accident rate went up.

You what?

 

[spionfox]

Argentinians.

The whole lot or one in particular?

 

[bocadillo]

Not a spelling mistake. In my hurry I missed a word out. It should have read '... because there the accident rate went up.'

And you still haven't told me you've got my ticket.

 

[Nottingham Fox]

And you still haven't told me you've got my ticket.

You can blame me for that, I offered him £20 for it, he didn't even hesitate to be honest.
