Tiki Bitches About...

...her housemate.

I love the girl dearly, but she's not only a morning person, she's also one of those people who talks constantly, and if she thinks I need cheering up she with spout incessant inane absurd little comments and questions... not things I can just ignore, but ones that require a response, EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE MEANINGLESS ABSURDITIES.

I really want her to SHUT THE FUCK UP in the mornings, and stop trying to be funny or cheer me up.

Also, despite being a morning person, she lets her alarm beep beep beep for almost an hour every morning. I hate repetitive sounds with a passion.

Even if it is your headboard hitting the wall?

notice how I fixated on probably the least important line of your post?

Absolutely.

Which is why I have a sturdy sleigh bed that stands up to abuse.

Luckily, I can't hear the sound of you hitting the same keys over and over again.

spray her with the hose, first thing. that'll dampen her spirits.

srsly, does she get up and down loads of coffee? You could secrectly switch it to decaf...just a thought.

"Good morning Tiki, how'd you sleep last night?"

"got anything interesting planned for today"

"did you watch American Idol last night?"

"No? What did you do?"

"think it's going to rain today?"

"when are they ever going to fill that pothole in front of the house?"

No, she's just naturally chatty in the mornings. Used to drive her boyfriend nuts too.

I think I'm really ill-suited to live with people, because I like to be left alone almost all the time. I don't at all mind being written at, but being talked at is like nails on a chalkboard.

Maybe I need to keep a spray bottle on my desk, and as soon as she starts talking I'll squirt her.

Yah everyone secretly hates their housemate for one reason or the other. You should write her a passive aggressive sticky note, and then tape it to her bedroom door.

I definitely don't mind being talked WITH, it's the little irritating POINTLESS demands on my time and attention that drive me crazy.

Carbon Monoxide works well in these situations. Just remember to make your plans for that evening a couple weeks prior. And don't tell ANYONE. Not even us.
