The true woes...

Nowaysis · 15-10-06 02:16:19

My entire room (I live in a dorm) smells of alcohol. There're some twenty cans of beer and a fair number of used glasses on the table. I have to sleep in this room. What's a poor boy to do?

Oh, and seriously, what the hell happened to my rock 'n' roll party, really?

Go to bed Nowaysis. Clean it up in the morning. Sleep well my friend.

Sage advice. But then, what's to be expected from Elrond himself?

Nowaysis · 15-10-06 21:44:55

Oh man, I was really hammered when I came home last night (some of us went to a friend's place for a while after everyone else had left my dorm). Quite the shenanigans I've been up to here, wouldn't you agree? Well, in an attempt to make up for my delinquent behaviour, I present, for your amusement:
Before
and
After

Yes, the "After" pic is a vast improvement. You really know how to create that lived-in feeling.

Är det du som dricker Kopparbergs Guld!? Erkänn nu! Urk!

I'm personally particularly fond of the leaking water pistol in the sofa, and the wet spot surrounding it.

And we certainly lived there yesterday. I was almost the only one who had any friends over, and as the evening wore on, it seemed that everyone else was gathering in my room as well. Let me tell you, twelve people, all drinking, in a room that's roughly 3,5 metres squared stinks to high hell even the morning after. And the not quite dried up beer in my carpet hardly made the situation any better.

Nej vet du vad! Jag dricker/drack bara Pilsner Urquell (och vodka tonic). Den där tuttifrutti-cidern lär ju mångdubbla ens magplågor dagen efter. Sockerchock följt av akuta konvulsioner i diafragman. Nej tack.

edit: And before I forget, the brown chair was actually broken (for the umpteenth time) at some point during the evening, but I somehow decided to put i back together before taking the after-picture.

I have been to that kind of party, but as I was a guest, I didn't have to do any cleaning the day after. I prefer being a guest. Much easier to just leave the mess for someone else to deal with, don't you agree?

Tack för förtydligandet. Jag började nästan oroa mig över din sexuella identitet där för ett ögonblick. Kopparberg och Pripps Blå är två av de fåtaliga "öl" som jag finner totalt odrickbara oavsett hur berusad jag är.

So true, my brother once hosted a similar party, and he had to throw his carpet in the laundry, and stil had crisp crumbs, whisky and various unidentified unwanted objects all over his floor. But considering how many different people passed "through" my room during the evening, I'm surprised the ancient chair was the only thing that broke. Nothing missing either, despite some completely uninvited youngsters from another party in the same building showing up.

Jaha, så mitt medlemskap på IFM, och att jag betalar det med mitt socialbidrag är inte nog för att intyga min manlighet då?

Burlesque · 15-10-06 22:26:00

I once had to use sandpaper to get the whisky-soaked remnants of a video cassette cover to let go of my floor. There's still a piece of cardboard there that just won't go away. I'm considering dynamiting it.

Om världens störste, mest kvinnotjusande hingst drack Kopparberg skulle jag vara övertygad om att han var bög, ja, så du behöver inte ta det personligt .

Nowaysis · 15-10-06 22:29:24

Meh...

Burlesque · 15-10-06 22:31:24

Låt oss säga att jag har starka övertygelser när det gäller Kopparbergs "öl". Jag har inga andra övertygelser, men den enda jag har är desto starkare. Jag får igen, så sett: alla tror automatiskt att jag är bög så fort jag beställer en Bloody Mary, men det är helt okej. Bloody Mary är gott.

You call that untidy? My living room looks 10 times worse than that most days of the year.

You should clear out all those whisky bottles and empty syringes every now and then, Elf.

I should clear out that pig of a housemate of mine is what I should do Burlesque.

Well, the Before-picture shows my room after a day spent cleaning said room. Had I not cleaned said room, there would have been absolutely no way whatsoever nowayjosé I could have had all those people in there. The table, the sofa and the brown chair were all ladden with paper, books, tape measures (don't ask), lypsyl, clothes... I could barely fit myself in there the way it looked before Before.

Yes of course, I didn't mean to imply that you have any filthy, immoral habits .

It's funny to see how Nowaysis desperately tries to live up to the reputation of being a dirty, careless student, when deep in his heart he's really a pedantic, compulsively cleaning control freak.

Burlesque.

Nowaysis · 15-10-06 23:20:12

It's funny because it's true!

No seriously (mock), I am an immense control freak, but I lack the self dicipline to actually make that show in any physical manner. I've yielded to the wants of my body, to just lounge around most all day, versus the wants of my mind, to keep everything in neatly labeled little drawers under the bed, available when needed, and then quickly and efficiently replaced in the drawer from whence it came.

Burlesque · 15-10-06 23:26:06

Then you and I are eerily similar. I always start out with the best of intentions, set on turning my home into a perfectly ordered museum of untouchable order, but what do I wind up doing? Sitting here.

Oh, that's a water pistol. THAT explains the wet spot . . . I was worried about the roll of toilet paper on the table . . . Actually, given my memories of the people I went to college with, either explanation would have been plausible.

Nowaysis · 16-10-06 09:15:42

I never saw it that way.
The toilet paper was to clean up the beer people spilled on my floor, my carpet and my guitar amp. Any use beyond that is classified information.

Burlesque · 16-10-06 09:28:09

Myself, I have been sober for three weeks. Not a drop of alcohol. "Why, in god's name!?" I hear you screech in terror. I haven't had the time. Or I haven't made the time. I hate working with a hangover, so I have to wait until I have some free time. I have tomorrow off. Anybody feel like coming over for too much booze and beer? I'm a harmless drunk, a bit loud and prone to singing and quoting Shakespeare, but really very sweet natured. Alcohol does that to me.
