Top five reasons I can't stand my housemate:

5) His girlfriend is really nice and I keep wanting to rescue her.

4) Last night when Nice Housemate Steven and I were playing Playstation games he came back into the house, muscled in and beat me three times, each time shouting 'Fuck you bitch!'

3) When Steve's girlfriend was staying with us (for the super long time of three weeks), having come back to Britain with nowhere to live after a visa fuck up caused her to be accidentally deported, he moaned and moaned and said: "The stupid cow should have checked her papers or stayed in Malaysia."

4) He put my chequebook in amongst the books on the hallway book case, called me stupid for not looking when I couldn't find it, but then had a go at me for putting one of his crappy ready meals back in a different part of the SAME FREEZER DRAWER because "you should tell people when you move their stuff."

5) He doesn't start work until three, so he is here, in the house, lurking like Gollum and causing me to post bitter rants on ILE rather than doing any of my own work.

4) Alfa-Romeo Montreal
3) Jensen Interceptor (Black Belt Jones' ride of choice)
2) Mitsubishi Starion (Jackie Chan drove one in his '80s HK cop movies)
1) Porsche 914 (I am the only person in the world who does not think this car is cheap and ugly)

No, Nate, you are not (especially because the good ones aren't so cheap any more), although the 914/6 is really the way to go if you can find one.

3: I grow green (MacEwan)

Dude, the A string was robbed.

Nate, do you really prefer the Javelin AMX (71 and on) to the real AMX (96 & 70 only)? Like the Jensen. But I think the best underrated sports care is the Maserati Ghibli. Underrated at about $30K though.

i meant AMX (69 & 70 only), of course
