I think Flinn's obsession is contagious and we're infected

It's too late

Now go buy me those socks, thanks

[Inkie]

Only if you compile a list of any and all possible uses you intend to make of them

[Derpy Hooves]

I'm pretty sure I wanted that exact set to wear with my new boots. Import cost was prohibitive though so I gave up on them

I got them on a Black Friday sale last year

[AoRun]

Anyone plays PS5?

[Påsan]

In winter time these days, I almost always wear socks at home, but not just any socks, these socks, https://www.thenordicsocks.com/products/arne-5-pairs
Have no idea if they're authentic though lol

"Our Arne set is up for the challenge."

They're only really authentic when granny knits them. But I'd totally buy the bergen set. Tbh I wear wool socks the majority of the year.

But not in bed though. I'm chronically too warm in bed as it is. I sleep best in single digit degrees.

[ggggtotalwarrior]

What kind of 22nd century self-heated warm beds do you people have tjat your feet aren’t chronically cold while sleeping barefoot?

So your granny made you a pair?

I mean, have enough layers on the bed, and you won't need a special layer on your feet.

Guys, over the past year, probably because of COVID, my roommate has been exhibiting some strong passive-aggressive behavior. A brief list of things he does
1. Always turns the bathroom fan on, even when he's not using the bathroom. When I leave the bathroom with the fan off, he'll come in to turn it off. He won't say a word about it to me, and neither will I ask him about it, because frankly I couldn't care less.
2. It seems when he has problems over something I did in his presence, he'll just mutter under his breath. Can't confirm it's about me, but it doesn't seem like coincidence.
3 Last night, he was having people over for poker night, and had a tv on in the other room playing music. I was hoping to use the tv to play N64, so I thought I'd ask him if I could use it. Instead of saying yes or no, he says, "It's your life, who am I to tell you how to live?", so I asked him again, and he gave me the same answer.
I mean just come out and give a straight answer

He's costing you tens of cents in power costs though.

That's when you just do whatever the you want and if he says something you say that same line back to him.

I love confrontation so damn much I have no idea how people put up with stuff like this smh.

Amen brotherman

We don't pay for utilities. We just pay rent and that's it.
Well you gotta live with the guy for at least another year, doesn't help making an enemy out of someone with access to your room.

[Akar]

Yeah I lack that sort of foresight.

We don't pay for utilities. We just pay rent and that's it.

It's not about the ACTUAL money, it's about the principle of it.

[ggggtotalwarrior]

ITS ABOUT SENDING A MESSAGE


ALSO: Submit for TOTW 299 so it can run or die of dysentery

[Akar]

I'M HALFWAY DONE

Invest in a very thick, warm blanket, and sleep in the fetal position. If that's not enough, as Derpy said get a second.

1. Just a nitpick but if you couldn't care less, why bring it up here?
2. I'd say the only thing you can really do is calmly ask him to repeat himself.
3. Did he previously ask you if you wanted to play poker with him? Either way, sounds like an arse.

[Morticia Iunia Bruti]

I use a thin blanket with a wool blanket above, no socks needed.

@Derpy Hooves: Sounds really like he has some hidden grudge, i don't like such behaviour, we are all adults, if i have done something wrong confront me immediately.

1. Eh, something to talk about. I mean we just added 10 qualitative posts to the Chat Thread over it
3. Kindof, I wasn't in a gambling mood, so I declined.

Maybe; this behavior of his really only started in the past year. So it's been very odd.

[Inkie]

In that case just have a friendly but frank chat with the guy, ask him if everything's ok in his life, as you mentioned above tell him that you want you two to get along and such.

And try to tone down that naturally intense gaze you have while saying it

[lolIsuck]

What kind of 22nd century self-heated warm beds do you people have tjat your feet aren’t chronically cold while sleeping barefoot?

Fold the blanket around your feet and/or use a fleece blanket or throw (after some research I think that's what it's called in English, we use the loanword plaid for it here but that's something else entirely in English) as an extra blanket.

[ggggtotalwarrior]

I use one small blanket and a comforter but if I’m without socks my feet will always be cold

[Akar]

All I use is a comforter. Never have cold feet. You people are weird.

[Derpy Hooves]

I just spent the last five hours making dinner for meself then making 9 jars of chocolate sauce for coworkers. I hope I made enough to give each a jar
