New roommate is a total geek...

[ChrizZ]

"Hi, I'm Christopher and I'm totally weird and a super geek" is what he said when he first entered the dorm to greet me.

I was looking at a tall, anorexic guy dressed as a total geek carrying a supercomputer in his one arm and an xbox and playstation in the other.. Next to him stood his girlfriend who was the female version of him.

He doesn't do any sports because he has a health problem.

He says he doesn't do anything except play video games all day. I'm talking about a geek like this

Now don't get me wrong here, I don't wanna sound arrogant, but we are completely different.

I'm on a good path to become a real man, but I'm afraid he'll drag me down with his nerdyness. What should I do? Try to help him out or just move out?

 

[stand]

I would give the guy a chance at least..

And for all you know he could be cooler than you.

You're not marrying this guy - what does it matter if he plays video games all day? He's just your room mate.. As long as he stays out of your way and doesn't bother you what's the big deal?

And do you normally look down on everyone?

 

[penkitten]

remember revenge of the nerds? get to know him first.

 

[Answers]

At least he dosn't pretent to be something he's not... sounds like he have a sense of humour too!

Just on weak men.

You know what, I'll give him a chance and teach him how to not be a total creep.

Hey man, I respect what you usually do Chris, but you know this is mad insecure of you? Let the guy do his thing, be nice to him, as long as he does not cross your boundaries. If he does, make it clear, but don't insult him just because he is a geek. He is happy being this way it seems... that's actually admirable in my eyes.

No offence dude but the guy in your video is such a CAPITALIST assh0le LOL as a Soviet I can't look at him it hurts my ears aggghhhh

 

[DJVladdy]

yea answers, exactly what i thought, he knows who he is.

That's the speech I gave to my roommate

I treated him really nice and didn't look down on him. The thing is he just doesn't have any social skills. He's a good kid though. I have an idea.

He could prolly help me out getting my own business started since he knows everything about computers.

I'm gonna pimp that ho.

You're an idiot. And if you can't figure out why you need to start re-evaluating where your life is going.

I'm sure if you posted your picture plenty of people here would get a laugh.

Who cares if the kid is skinny and likes to play video games? How does it AFFECT you? You're just living with the kid. It seems like he's going to just do his own thing and stay out of your way. Yet, you are considering moving out right away, because he's not "cool" in your opinion?

Get a fking clue.

He is the perfect roommate.

You don't need a cool motherfvcker room-mates who will trash the place, play loud music when you want to sleep or study, eat your food and won't respect your personal space.

The kid brought in Xbox and playstation and he would probably love to share that with you. What more can you ask from this kid?

I'm on a good path to become a real man, but I'm afraid he'll drag me down with his nerdyness. What should I do? Try to help him out or just move out?

A) How are you being a real man when you are looking down at another man?! that is what women do to other women, you don't want to be like that.

B) If you are afraid to be dragged down by a harmless kid, you got issues . Prehaps at some point you were close to the way this kid was and now you are feeling resenful because he reminds you of what you were like or somewhat still like?!

C) You are in college, remember your number 1 priority is to STUDY and get a degree and not worry about small little things like this, everything else comes second (especially if your parents are the ones that are forking the load of the payment).

I overreacted a little bit.

You are right.

However I DO NOT have sympathy for weak men like him that sit at home all day and play videogames. If he asks for help I'll help him. I hoped for another alpha male to learn from, but I got a beta male.

I'll try to take advantage of this though. As I said his computer skills might be useful for starting my own business.

 

[Kev07]

uhhh, the dude could probably help you with homework, and he's probably really chill, i don't see what the problem is.

 

[PrinceBeavis]

At school we call them 'nerd.' At work we call them 'boss.'

Maybe he doesn't know any better. You don't have to have a sympathy for him but you don't need to have disdain for him either. You are a roomate in college in the same situation as he is, no better no worse. Maybe your main concern is to chase ass and think hanging around cool people will make you cool too and be more "ALPHA", while his main concern is to finish his degree first and then take over Microsoft or something like that. In 10 years from now he might come out better, you never know how time shapes men.

I'll try to take advantage of this though. As I said his computer skills might be useful for starting my own business.

Take advanage of this??!! what are you? the talented Mr Ripley?! A guy that masks his intentions to get what he wants through manipulation and deceit by pretending to be his friend so he can help you out?!! Now that is what I call creepy.

Can't you just let him be?! and make things on your own with nobody's help like "A REAL MAN" would?!

Why don't you learn on your own? Computers run nearly everything today and trying to start any kind of business will require basic excel or accounting skills.

Why such animosity against video games, and people who really enjoy them? It is a billion+ dollar industry, and part of many cultures around the world. You're telling me you didn't have a Sega or Nintendo?

Don't look down on your "beta-male" roommate, solve your own "alpha" issues first.

 

[ChrizZ]

I just don't want him to always be around playing video games so that I never have any privacy and I don't want him to creep out every girl that comes into my room.

Geek and Niceguy aren't always the same thing, ya know. Granted, if you're pretty geeky, the chances of you being a "smooth player" goes way down, but give him a chance.

And... just think about this for a minute... maybe this is a chance for you to teach him a little if he has problems. Don't force it on him, but... maybe... just maybe.

I didn't go psychopathic gay because my roommate was a gay escort who wrote death threats. I didn't turn into a pothead who constantly cheated on his girl and complained about how I can't do anything because of "The Man;" just because another roommate did.

Don't let him control your life, and you should be fine.
