The sound of 300 pounds of lard banging against the wall...

Alternatively, to embarrass her into shutting the fuck up during intercourse, do a very loud impression of her while she's screaming. You know, one that's OTM and that she's bound to hear. Hopefully, if she has any sense of self-respect at all, she'll start trying to be a bit quieter. The slapping you probably can't get rid of. Apart from if you use my napalm suggestion.

My roommate is very depressed and has no money. Penthouse was his largest employer and they went under earlier this year. He gets his girlfriend to pay for everything, which is why he is with her, I think.

I'm just mainly looking for a way to tell them to be quiet. And don't think that I'm some selfish asshole: my other roommate is this French girl and she's just as disgusted by it. But she's way too timid to ever do anything.

1) Immediately after the first time I heard them go at it so loudly, my roommate walks upstairs and knocks on my door. I open it. He's standing there in his boxers. "Uhhh, can I bum a smoke?" he asks.

2) Two nights ago they're doing it loudly again. "Oh my ga-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-a-d!" she's yelling while getting shoved against a wall or something. Afterwards she and my roommate go into the kitchen to make food. My door is closed but I can hear them talking. "Should we put cinnamon or marshmallows on that?" he asks. "Both!" she exclaims. WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY MAKING???

Another weird note: Last night she was screaming at the top of her lungs: "FUCK YOU MCFLY!" Are they doing some sort of Back to the Future roleplaying thing???

that guy has such a great job tho!

And I lvoed the hog splitter - about the first time I've used to net for anything related to work all week.

Very funny thread.

I am also kind of lost as to why the weight of this guy's girlfriend was even mentioned. It doesn't lend your argument any weight and it makes you sound like an asshole who deserves to be annoyed (which you very well may be).

second para spot on. (although, nb, i dont think yancey is an asshole.)

james, this is sub-trifeian at best.

It's a nuisance more than anything. I'm not really pissed off about it. It's a bit annoying, but also funny. I'm not home very much, so I've been avoiding dealing with it, hoping it would just somehow go away.

As to the weight thing: Yeah, it was crude of me to mention (the thread title was supposed to be a grabber more than anything), but I wanted to mention this weird thing they have with food (all the junk food I found her with one night and the completely strange cooking thing they were doing earlier this week). The weight wasn't neccessary for that, but I thought it was an entertaining addition. Anyway, sorry to those who I offended with that. I'm no weightist, promise!

Yes they are annoying. Why make an issue of the girls weight other than to compound your point? Because you are seeking to use prejudice as a way to re-enforce your arguement.

Overweight Scottish bloke? HAS to be

omg. that is fn hilarious, I'd post it to the excelsior thread but it must be in an earlier incarnation. But if you laugh at nothing else today, it must be this, or that photo of the freaked out baby.

4 years later and NOPE

Old housemates were shagging all the time, it was annoying. I soon put a stop to it by playing Gilbert and Sullivan at them. It's impossible to remain horny with Pirates of Penzance blasting out.

Fat people generally are that way because they don't use common sense when eating. "Eat until your body can hold no more, clean your plate even if there's more there than you should eat, this is a buffet get your money's worth."
Yeah.
Will be happier in Japan.
Less grossly fat people.

I DON'T LIKE FAT FAT FAT PEOPLE. Slightly heavy people are a different story.
However, that's rare as hell.

gear's thread is way better.

LET'S SEE THE STUDIES THAT PROVE THIS

Welcome to our country.
Now piss off.

Ipso Fatso

nobody got cancer

QED!

Not that they aren't gross...

In any case, second hand smoke is overblown, I already said I was OUTSIDE, and as such only making myself less healthy.

SO. She's a fatass, and should be treated as such.

Fat people nowadays somehow trying to ride the coattails of actual minority groups to make themselves feel good about their fattness disgusts me even more than seeing them teach their children to be fat.
Does that sentence need a semicolon?
THEY SHOULD NOT FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEIR PHYSICAL SELVES. Unless they've actually stuck to a prescribed dietery plan given to them by a physician, exercised, and somehow were still unable to lose weight.

Why, because it just came out of your colon?

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

Don't hide behind an excuse for your thread title you fatist fucker. "i'm sorry! I didn't realise I gassed all those Jews!"

I'm sorry, you can't make the statement that you're not weightist after that thread header. That was a casual insult, delivered without thought of the offence it may cause. Simply put, you cannot attack someone on those grounds unless you're prepared to stick to your guns and say "I fucking hate fat people, they revolt me". If, as I gather, your problem is more with the noisy sex then fine, that's annoying. But you can't shrug off discrimination like that with a simple "I was trying to get peoples attention". Tolerance is not selective, accept, or don't. Or possibly grow the fuck up.

I've just been drawn to this thread as I've been woken up at 5am in the morning by one of my housemates moaning somewhat too loudly.

I think Gilded... has a point in that obesity is one of the largest problems we face in society today. There is a precisely defined medical cut off line for obesity and any person who is clinically overweight should learn the following- firstly how to develop a healthy mindset so that they may deal with scenarios which may bring their obesity and body image into question; secondly, how to actually combat their obesity (if you are clinically obese this is NOT a healthy body state and you may be shortening your lifespan considerably); thirdly the consequences you have on other people, most importantly your children if you have any. If an obese parent is lazy enough to instill the same attitude towards food in their children they are effectively destroying their own child's life.
In summary, if you are clinically obese, DON'T try and pretend it's fine and dandy by accusing people who raise the issue of insensitivity.
If you're not and you think you're fat, listen to the men in your life who say that you're not. They are right when they say you are beautiful.

Back on topic, while I was writing this comment (accompanied by the oh so disgusting sounds of my housemate in the next room), said housemate's parents came over to visit. They were let into the house and came straight up to her room. Suffice to say that the words "This is your mother. Your father, grandmother and I shall be waiting downstairs for you" have probably scarred her for life!

Also, issue sorted!

I am really disappointed this thread title wasn't literal. I've dropped 50 lb. bricks of lard onto tile floors before and it makes the most fascinating SCHLOPPPP sound. So I thought, 'Wow, this will be a great description! Three-HUNDRED pounds of lard, hurled with enough velocity to hit a wall. That sound's gotta be EPIC!"

I don't care about others' weight, it's none of my business. And I find hearing roommates' sex, while not exciting, revealing and somewhat entertaining. For example, once my roommate was fucking a waitress in the next room over (he went through waitresses pretty fast and soon ran out of breakfast joints). She kept yelling "I LOVE YOU!!!" and he shouted back "I KNOW!"

God, being fat isn't as destructive as some other bad habits, like smoking or being an asshole.

This j0n sounds like a pleasant, helpful guy.

he went through waitresses pretty fast and soon ran out of breakfast joints

This is a story in and of itself, clearly.

(he went through waitresses pretty fast and soon ran out of breakfast joints)

^^^worse than running out of strip clubs.
