This may sound like a rant, but I assure you it applies to everyone.

My roommate and best friend was listening to music or something one day when his kick ass stereo system broke and he soon discovered that the cause was a burnt out fuse that needed to be soldered out and replaces Without a second thought, I told him that if he went down to the electrical engineering department and talked to Mr. Suchandsuch that he would get the help, equipment, and instruction on how to replace said fuse. He said that he wanted me to come with because I already knew the guy despite the fact that I already told him this engineer was really cool and didn't mind walk-ins. Afternoon naptime or help a friend? Sacrificing my REM cycles, I escorted him down to the guy who (surprise surprise) didn't mind at all that we wanted to use his soldering equipment. Having more experience, I offered to do the job for him, but apparently this was just too much for him to watch and he got frustrated by just watching me and took over leaving nothing for me to do. So slightly annoyed that he didn't appreciate my naptime sacrifice, my introduction to the guy, and my experience and willingness to help, i just stood by while he worked. Turns out that something else in the speakers was wrong so he just decided to toss the whole thing. Waste of my afternoon? yup. So that night i don't feel like grabbing food at the mess hall so i made riceballs in my room with salt and seaweed. I'm no expert at ricecrafting, but i managed a decent triangular shape and it tasted pretty good to me so I offer it to my roommates. The one i helped picked his up and immediately a chunk fell off to which he responded, "did you seriously make these?" Without waiting for a response, he takes a bite and apprently hated the taste so much he spat it into the trash and tossed the rest of the riceball without a word of thanks or advice on what could be improved upon. I gave the last riceball away hoping they wouldn't hate it as much as the roommate did and i got back a "wow that was really good! tell me when you make more."

So does TFP have friends like this? What does/would TFP do to someone that you live with that doesn't appreciate small favors done for them? Advice? Criticisms? I dont want to make living with this roommate shittier for the next two years...
