Man. Now I feel totally guilty. Like a spoiled kid who wants to play Mega Man X4 on his friend's Playstation because he doesn't have one. But his friend doesn't like Mega Man games, and is nice enough to share his video games, but would rather play Medal of Honor.

He's doing you a favor by allowing you to live with him, which helps you save money and is much better than living on the street or with your parents. You're apparently not paying him a great deal of money, so the least you can do is honor his requests. It doesn't look like he's asking you to do something extreme, dude just wants some uninterrupted sleep before he has to deal with snot-nosed bastards all day.

He sounds like a whiny bitch to struggle that hard with sleeping.

These two quotes sum up exactly how I feel at the same time.

@Ares42: If I wasn't here, nobody would be. The other roommate is a friend of mine. The only reason she's here is because I'm here, and the only reason I'm here is because he'll let me. If I wasn't around he wouldn't rent the rooms. He was very apprehensive about her coming around to begin with.

Alright. Look like I'm the one who has to deal with it. I guess in the back of my head I feel so annoyed. If I was given a house by my parents it would be about 900,000 times cooler. He, for better or worse, matured way faster than any of my other friends. He's a normal (kinda boring) adult. I suppose he's being responsible, though. I know it's easy to knock him for how he lives, and how he runs this house. But in the end it is his house. He was dealt a better hand in life economically. I was given far better social skills, and have a good group of friends and a girlfriend. It's just the way it is, and I have to just deal with it until I move out in about 9 months.

@RollingZeppelin: They're all bums who live with their parents. Literally all of them. I would, too, if I didn't have this economically sweet deal. Even though I make OK money it's just too expensive here. I'm moving to a cheaper part of the country in about 9 months, though.

Ok it seems like I'm the asshole roommate? It really doesn't feel that way, but it sounds that way coming from most of you. I'll reiterate that it's not my house. Is it my responsibility to pay to soundproof my door?

Man...you guys totally didn't read my post.

Edit: I suppose I invited that by adding a TLDR, though.

EDIT: Alright, guys. I've gotten enough feedback. Thanks to those who put things in perspective, and those with soundproofing tips.

Gross. Just gross. This reminds me of one of those weird elementary school assemblys with people who do yo-yo tricks or something. Like in that one episode of The Simpsons.

Awesome. I hope they really nail some smaller market that the Vita/3DS don't satisfy.

Vanilla.

It's not just that the game changed. I changed. That was 8 (!!!!!!!) years ago. I was 18. I'm 26 now. My relationship is more serious, my job demands more hours, and I don't play as many video games as I used to. I can sit back and whine about how vanilla was the greatest, but frankly it was a point in time where the stars aligned. My girlfriend at the time was little more than someone I had sex with occasionally. My job was only on weekends, and college was a joke. I had all the time in the world to do whatever. I had a real life friend I played with a lot that was in the same situation. We found 38 other people in a similar spot in their lives, formed a guild, and rocked Azeroth. I had friends in WoW that were better than most of my real-life friends. They were faceless confidants. They wouldn't judge me for playing this game every single day for hours. They were doing it too. I was an officer in my guild and it gave me purpose. I had power, unlike in every other avenue of my life. It was euphoric and intensely fun. If, right now. they opened up some special servers that were "classic" servers (servers that used the last vanilla patch and would never update) I still wouldn't go back. I'm just not the same person anymore.

I come back for every expansion to hit the new cap, try the new dungeons, and survey the world I spent so much time in, but not more more than 2 months. I just finished my Pandaria time. No interest in coming back. I saw what I needed to see. I think the talent changes are great. I think the glyph changes are great. I like the raid finder. Monk was an OK class, but felt like a Rogue a little too much. But I really didn't dig the Asian motif. It just doesn't do anything for me. Visually, I loved Lick King, anything in Blackrock Mountain (BRD is still the coolest, and Grim Batol was AWESOME looking, too). Like the Burning Legion stuff, too.

I always choose male. I have friends who only choose female. We're all male. Neither of us can understand why the other chooses opposite.
