“How much I actually talk to myself. I never had any roommates, aside from one for like the first two weeks in college before I got moved to a single room, so I was used to just talking to myself out loud like nothing.

“He doesn’t take the initiative to kill the creepy crawlies that waywardly stray into our apartment. If he sees a house centipede he looks at it, then promptly turns tail and walks away. Won’t even tell me the damn thing is there. I’m a girl who grew up having to call dad to kill spiders and bugs and shit so it’s weird that I now have to be the one to viciously murder every insect who comes inside.” — SalmonforPresident
