I'll start.

The circulation in my office sucks so I have a little desk top fan that does the trick. It quit today. On the way home the cable on the left rear window regulator breaks and the window drops into the door. I get home and my wife says the garbage disposal is leaking. I take a look at it and sure as **** it's leaking out the bottom. Then.....my son gets me and takes me into his room so he can show me his smoking PC monitor.

Guess what I purchased first......That's right.....a twelver of beer.
 
Thank you, Azgreg, I need to vent right now.

I’m so pissed off right now. So a few of my friends and I are planning this camping trip on Friday. One of my friends is this guy that I talk to. So today, for whatever reason, he decided it would be a great ****ing idea to creep me and my other friends out. I was at Chili’s with my friends, and I was texting him about the stuff that we already have and what we will need for the trip. And he was talking about how he was gonna bring rope and **** like that. I told him that he didn’t need to get all of that, but he kept on egging on with it. He kept telling me how it was really important that he bring tape and rope for the night. And I was like, bringing a taser is really important, too (I was trying to give him a hint, but he obviously didn’t get it).

I told him he was creeping me out, but he kept on doing it. I eventually got really ****ing annoyed by that point, and I told him that I was this close to uninviting him, but he didn’t think I was serious. Then he sent me (and this is word for word what he said) Rope + Tape = Rape. And at that point I was just like **** this, I’m done talking to you. So we uninvited him from the trip. And the stupid thing is: he still thinks we’re joking about uninviting him. I stopped responding to him a while ago, because I just got so tired of his ****. And honestly, the last thing I want to do right now is talk to that idiot.

Now, I don’t really think he was actually going to do something like that. I think he was just trying to be funny. But man, it was so not funny. Didn’t make me laugh one bit. Nor did any of my other friends find it funny. I don't know what the **** is up with him today, but he needs to get his **** together.

This guy is oblivious to social cues. Now, granted, part of the college experience is refining them, but he went over the line, IMO. I would listen to your instincts on this one. He’s either got a great deal to learn that he should have learned by now, or he’s a nut-job.

Always always trust your instincts.

Yes he did cross the line; I don't know what the **** his problem is today. I don't know why he thought that would be funny, especially since we're all going to be alone in the woods together.

He is not coming with us. **** that. He ruined his chance.

Hopefully, he doesn’t know where you’re going. If he does? I’d change my plans.

Edit. And don’t make a big deal about it if you’re changing your plans. From a distance, MY creep meter tells me this guy could be a problem.

Humans have a built in creep detector. He’s warning you, not teasing you.

Hmm... I don't think that I have ever been alone while (together) with other folks - how, exactly, does that work?

He does know where we're going, but I highly doubt he's actually gonna follow us. I'm not scared of him, anyways. But I will keep that into consideration.

We're planning on confronting him tomorrow about this.

Well then... I will just follow you guys from a distance.

Just joking... I am stalking somebody else currently....

OK, but being in a smaller group is not being alone. Enjoy college.

A group can a singular entity, and therefor can be alone.

Maybe you should invest in some Mace until you figure out why you are attracting troublesome young men.
 
Terrible thing happened two days ago and I am still quite upset. I am venting by the way... I can't stop thinking about it and one of my mates actually had the nerve to bring it up yesterday! I absolutely couldn't believe it.

I was shooting a three over par for seventeen holes and on the eighteenth hole I ****ing triple bogey doubling my over!! just what in the hell... eleven pars in a row and that is how I finish!!

Like Maggie said, the guy is still at least a little socially immature. What may have worked with people he knew better in HS or crap that he thinks, just off the top of his head, is funny really needs to be thought through a little more thoroughly before he tries it out on new people. Maybe he can learn. If so, you are helping him figure it out. If not, well...when everyone has "uninvited" him and he still doesn't get it, what can ya do?

That goes a good bit beyond "creepy". It's more along the lines of "seriously in need of a mental eval".
