I get the feeling that your roommates don't like you very much. Do you think fighting with one or both of them will make them like you better? Time to find a new home, or deal with it. Odds are that violence isn't going to make the living situation any better.

I don't know if 'like' plays into it as much as respect. They obviously don't respect you. Challenging them to a fight probably will not help this. They may just laugh even harder. At this point you will have to decide whether to snap and go playground spaz on them. If so, I highly recommended the dual rotating propeller punches of terror.

You also might want to wait until you can isolate just one of them. That should be common sense.

First of all, while you're owning these idiots, you need to throw some disrespect right back at them. You know, point and laugh at them, insult their education background, say "You voted for Bush didn't you?" Stuff like that.

Also, consider buying a big piece of posterboard, stapling it to the livingroom wall and writing at the top in big bold letters, "stupid [censored] Billy and Tommy believe". When they start making stupid claims, enjoy another good laugh as you document their stupidity on the poster.

No worries. At some point you will grow a pair. Eventually hair will develop. Then all will be fine.

Soko, I don't know you, but pretty much every group has the one guy that people gang up on/pick on, etc. There's usually a reason.

You are going to have a not good life. There will be prison at some point.

So you don't respect them and they don't respect you. But you're friends sort of. And you want them to respect you, even though you don't respect them. And you think the way to do it is to challenge them to a fight? I can see why they might think you're a dork and pick on you.

This reminds me of a kid I grew up with. He was a pretty intelligent guy when it came to book smarts, but didn't have a lick of common sense but thought he knew more about everything than pretty much anyone else. He did things like try to learn to breakdance from an instructional manual. Last time I saw him he was getting ready to build a PC to try to save money, despite the fact he lived 1/2 mile from the Dell Outlet store and knew nothing about computers. We picked on him constantly as kids. Even my friend's dad used to pull the kid's chain. It was pretty much just the fact that he was so easily goaded into arguments about pretty much anything so we'd drive him crazy by just picking random things to argue with him about.

If he'd just stopped letting us bait him into arguments, we'd probably have stopped eventually so that's my suggestion to you.

Okay. Tonight the argument that brought about this post:

ass1: did you plant those seeds over there?

me: yeah but I didn't put topsoil over them so I'm afraid the bugs will eat them

ass2: bugs don't eat seeds [censored]

me: yes they do

ass2: no they dont

me: yes they do, they have nutrients in them

ass2: oh yeah, like what? (In a challenging tone)

me: like fat and carbs

ass1: oh yeah right, plants have fat? Hahaha

ass2: hahahah

me: yes.... have you not heard of vegetable oil?

ass2: that's oil, oil isn't fat

me: omg... yes it is, have you ever looked at the label on peanut butter, etc?

them: (realizing they are wrong) no that’s completely different, the oil turns to fat inside the body

me: *head about to explode*

both of them: you have no idea what you are talking about, oh right, so if you eat vegetables you will get fat? right? blah blah blah, don't forget to trim the fat off your asparagus, etc etc etc for maybe 15 minutes unprovoked

...

Some of the dumbest [censored] imaginable.

Poindexter,

This is some of the dumbest [censored] imaginable, and you are a tool for:

a) living with these losers
b) allowing an argument over the nutritional composition of seeds to proceed for more than 2 seconds
c) not being a grown-up and saying "Hey, I'm really getting sick and tired of this b.s. with you two arguing every little point with me. I want it to stop."

The way that the above conversation transpired makes it clear that you would get beat up in a fight with either of your roommates.

Do you really think that fighting one of your roommates will stop any of this crap and allow you continue to enjoy your living situation?
