View Full Version : The phone that took my sanity!

The legacy of the bitch.


September 1st. She moves in, I choose her because out of all the people who applied she was the only one who had a job (I live very near to a major college) Also she wasn’t terrible to look at (In my defense of that I hadn’t gotten laid in a very long time) and she seemed pleasant enough.

September 15th the first phone bill arrives. Seeing how this phone bill is August 11th through September 10th I figured I wouldn’t even bring it to her attention, and pay it.

September through October 14th, everything seems to be going fine, a few things she does like her slovenly attitude and constant disrespect of my privacy start to get on my nerves.

A few things did happen that should have triggered my search for a new roommate;

1. She got drunk and decided to take a dip in the public pool after the designated swimming hours (Pool is located smack in the middle of the apartment complex). I had to eat @#%$ from my landlord for at least 2 hours over that.
2. Her boyfriend has started to make it a habit to call after midnight.
3. My cousin was visiting, she told my cousin that “Within a month she would be a drug using slut like all the rest of them” Needless to say this was very out of line.
4. Whenever she pays me for anything with a check I always get to here @#%$ about it, did you cash that check yet, you need to cash that check our it will bounce, if you bounce that check I’m not paying the penalties (No it hasn’t happened yet) But for Christ’s sake woman, it’s not my @#%$ fault you can’t balance your damn checkbook, I will cash it whenever the @#%$ I feel like it)

October 15th, the phone bill arrives. I present her with half of the bill to pay. She doesn’t feel she HAS to pay it seeing how she has a cell phone she uses all the time (Even though 3/4s of all the long distance calls are hers and she probably receives 5 times as many calls as me (Not surprising considering I get one or two calls a week) She says she will pay for her long distance charges and half of our message service ($3 a week you generous bitch you) but from now on she won’t pay another dime towards the phone. This ticks me off something awful, first thing I do is cancel long distance, message service, any extras (Including one that was keeping telemarketers from getting through in hindsight I should have kept that one)

January 1st I remove the phone’s and DSL filters from all phones in the house bar my room. I actually get really masochistic with the phone in hopes that she will leave. Hanging up on her friends whenever they call, whenever I get a call after midnight I would yell that she has a call from her boyfriend then hang up as soon as she comes into my room to get the call.

January 10th a friend comes out to Boise for 2 weeks for work, good news for me as I get to see him. My friend and my roommate “hook up” again in hindsight she probably did it as some odd attempt to get back at me. Which kind of worked cause for the 15 days he was up I barley saw him. Mind you why this is going on her boyfriend is still calling my phone and is still coming over every night my friend wasn’t. I wouldn’t get involved in that triangle with a 50-foot poll.

January 30th. Boyfriend calls at 7 O’clock in the morning! (I usually sleep till 11ish) I get more pissed then I have ever been in my life, I say some very nasty @#%$ to the BF then go to sleep, don’t have the balls to confront the roommate.

December 10th “You have a collect call from Oregon State Penal institution, from ‘(My friends name here)’ will you accept the charges” (A bunch of other stuff about calling numbers for costs that’s just the cliff notes version. I accept just in time to get hung up on. I call around for an hour or so then finally talk to my friend. He isn’t in jail, he has no idea what is going on. I dismiss it as some weird ass thing I will never understand and leave it at that.

December 13th “You have a collect call from Oregon State Penal institution, from ‘(Her boyfriend)’ will you accept the charges (I didn’t make the connection between the two till later) Now when it happened I’m defiantly not one who would let someone sit in jail cause I don’t like my roommate so I get her in, she has a friendly little chat with him then hangs up and leaves my room with out saying a word to me. WTF was that! I again don’t say anything.

But anyway I solemnly swear that I will grow a set by the time my next phone bill arrives (Will have to be the January bill because the December calls won’t be on this months) If she stops to clear her throat after I tell her, I will tell her to get the @#%$ out! If she asks me if its ok to pay by a check I will tell her to get the @#%$ out! If she fumbles taking her wallet out I will tell her to get the @#%$ out!

This rant has no real point; I just had to get all of that out. I hate my life. I need to grow a pair. I will personally drive over to the first persons house that says “Just do her in the pooper” and bludgeon them to death.

My God, what is so fricking hard for you to understand? If anyone calls for her on your phone, say in a pleasant voice, "This isn't Roommate's number. You may want to try her cell. Good bye." Then hang up.

If the phone rings at an ungodly hour, brace yourself now, don't answer it. Something tells me you aren't a brain surgeon, so no one is going to literally die if you aren't reached at 4:30 a.m. And if someone in your family is dead, well s/he will still be dead at 9 or 10.

@#%$ mrens...just ask her to move out already. Give her a week or two, it may be akward, but you wont have to see her again and you'll actually get to live in peace.


...and the rant hall will get some variety back. "Pain inside is rising. I am the Fallen One. A figure in an old game. No jokers on my side. I've plunged into missery, i've turned out the light and murderd the dawn"

I'm curious...how did you get from October to January to December in your (assumingly) chronological timeline of things? I could be wrong, but isn't um...November after October, before December, and January is after December? Edited by: Nyssa Rainwhisper at: 12/15/03 8:32 am

If she asks me if its ok to pay by a check I will blush a little, stare at the floor, give a little grin, and say it's fine! If she fumbles taking her wallet out I will be thankful she hasn't tried to get out of paying any of the bill; which I will ultimately agree with, reassuring her dominance over me!

If you need help growing a pair to kick her ass out, read this.

Mrens, I don't mean this unkindly. But if I'd signed up for the Secret Santa thing and gotten your name I would have sent you two big shiny steel balls of the right size in a sock. Also instructions to knock her out with your new balls, then get a friend (real friend) to help carry her and her stuff out and to leave a little note saying "Got balls of steel now to replace the ones you stole. You're evicted bitch, get the hell out of my life". And of course a lock change.

ahh.. have to do it... sorry guys and girls.

But, in order to make this a complete rant on the Safehouse, the answer is easy: do her in the pooper!

sorry Salyvan Ticklefingers and Gaenaria - A dangerous toy. This toy is being made for the extreme priority the good looks. The little part which suffocates when the sharp part which gets hurt is swallowed is contained generously. Only the person who can take responsibility by itself is to play.

Well, if you lack the cajones to tell her to her face, write a letter and leave it on her pillow. Once she reads it, she'll be the one to engage a conversation on the topic. (I suppose this would work for both love letters and eviction notices). Although telling her to her face is still the best option.

I'm beginning to think that Mrens is just some kind of attention whore and I'm also beginning to doubt this person even exists. I mean, this is, what, he's 20th thread about this person?

Frankly, I'm sick of hearing about your @#%$ problems that you yourself refuse to @#%$ fix.

Aww Salyvan, you beat me to it.

I like to tempt fate by responding to weakly enforced threats and warnings.

I'm just a **** like that. Although, that could be why I get in so many fights. Hmmm... gnmish.gearbinder.ring.warden.sullon.zek

Haha Koru, that would have been the bestest secret santa present EVAR! Seriously Mrens, you do need to do something about it asap. Next time she does something to upset you, do it while you're angry. Balls grow hair when angry.

Then stop reading Rant Hall? Or even just his topics?

I'm certainly not gonna stop reading the rant hall.

See, some people have problems that they are willing to DO something about.

And other people have a DIFFERENT problem every time they make a thread.

But Mren has the exact same problem now he did 6 months ago and every time, he gets 20 people telling him how to fix it, and every time, he posts again the next week to tell us about how he didn't do @#%$, and his problem continues.

Maybe I will just stop reading his posts.
