/jp/ - Otaku Culture

luckily, my freshman roommate was a bro and put up with it. I just used headphones when I watched anime and played vns when he was in the room. As long as you aren't obnoxious and have some tact, most normalfags couldn't care less. Just don't bring your figures.

When I played nukige I would grab my laptop and play in my bed, so he couldn't see the screen unless he looked over my shoulder. If you've got a desktop, try putting your desk in the corner of the room, so your back is to the wall.

or, just fuck it and be an autist

Buy a desk with a rounded corner and set yourself up facing away from a wall. Also headphones.

Also dorming is a great way to make friends and meet girls do your best to be sociable.

he insulted you to his normalfag friends behind your back

Why care about what other people think?

Deal with it by not going to college.

Oh and small college keggers are only fun if you know everyone there so don't go inviting your friends from different schools unless they're cute girls.

My roommate was cool with it. I keep the loli and guro on the down low, but he doesn't think much of my VNs, and we have a sign that means "Keep out, I'm fapping/fucking a girl in here" for when we need the room to ourselves. Don't be weird about it and it really shouldn't be a problem.

>>7765754
Because he's going to live with the guy. That's differs a lot from what bypassers or classmates think of you

It's beyond me why people pay to get crammed into a tiny room with some random retard.

>>7765752
OP here, it really sucks. We have almost nothing in common. He plays sports, watches shitty American cartoons and he also has a girlfriend. I'm not sure why those faggots who arranged this have to make my life as difficult as possible.

Give your roommate fate/stay night

>>7765765
Welcome to real life. Sometimes you just have to put up with shit in order to move up in life/society.

>>7765771
I'm not even sure if he knows where japan is.

>>7765767
be bro's about thundercats and find your own girlfriend.

Its actually really easy to pick up a girl when she lives less than a block away and you'd see her every day anyway.

>>7765774
Most of us don't give a fuck about moving up in life.

>>7765767
Let him watch Redline and slowly ease him into weeaboodom. You'll know you've succeeded when he starts browsing /a/ and watching K-On.

>>7765779
>find your own girlfriend.
But... But.. /jp/ is my girlfriend.

>>7765783
Say that when your parents die. Enjoy your 300-400$ a month.

I've got the same deal going on, I just learned recently that I'm being forced to room with someone since the fuckers overadmitted so there's limited single rooms. Don't know who I'm rooming with though so I hope against hope that he's at least chill enough to not care what I do.

>>7765787
No big deal.

I'm not even sure I can live the lifestyle i've been living for years.. it's pretty bad when the only haven on the campus is the anime club.

>>7765793
You probably will be too nerd even for them though.

>>7765767
That's not a difficult roommate unless he decides to fuck his girlfriend while you're still in the room (It happens). Other more horrible scenarios involve him locking you out of your own room, getting your shit stolen by him or one of his associates, him bringing in shady characters for whatever reason (say drug dealing), and the anecdotes and possibilities go on. Welcome to life. Suck it up or go an hero. Or ask the RA to see if you can switch roommates (though this early on, they'll probably say no since you sound like a whiny faggot doing that this early in the semester).

>>7765767
It's a disposition like that which makes you just as much a cock as you make him out to be. Roommate matching in colleges is very hit or miss due to circumstances which may be out of their control due to student populations and available space and such.

As far as watching anime goes, he'll respect your shit as long as you respect his. If you call his stuff shit out loud, then he has all rights to do the same. As far as VNs or porn, have a mutual understanding. He'll need alone time as much as you do and as long as neither of you are total pricks, it'll work out. Also, stop jacking off and looking at porn so much. You're in college. Find some 3D women.

>>7765798
>find some 3d women
where the fuck am i?

>>7765802
/jp/ overrun by cross boarders.

>>7765802
Even /jp/ could get 3d in a typical college, where 55% of the population is female and 54% of the population is female sluts.

>>7765798
Go back to whatever normalfag shithole you came from.

>>7765798
>>7765808

>>7765808
Welcome to my filter.

>>7765808
It doesn't works that simple.
/jp/ don't like playing bothersome roles (faking their hobbies,playing agressive, etc...), and they would like their gf to be loyal to them, not any slut, even if you found such a girl and got in a relatioship with her, there will be a time she will ask for you hobbies, and these kind of shit, and relation with secrets simply doesn't work with these kind of girl.

>>7765825
>ask for your hobbies
you might as well cheat on her with her best friend, kill her parents and lets dogs rape her before you even think about that.

>>7765824
People still use those?

(he won't hear this post because he filitered me along time ago)

>Have roommate
>Turns out he's into /jp/ materials

Sucks to be you, OP.

>>7765839
haha, nice one.
You keep your secrets and she NTR you, or tell her, and she call the cops, in both cases you are screwed.

>>7765825
>>7765839

You both miss the point, why the HELL would you want a 3D girlfriend? They're unattractive (opinion), generally care less about you and more about what you come with (money, social status, what have you) [fact], and generally will lie and hurt you for no easily discernible reason. Why would you want to be around such a creature for extended periods of time?

>>7765852
the original poster believed that we should try and adapt to society by getting a girlfriend.

Do whatever the fuck you feel like and if he gets on your nerves, strike back. I ended up hitting so hard in terms of my hobbies and lifestyle choices that i ended up driving my first room mate out of my room. My next room mate didn't like me too much, and my room mate after that was a grade school friend.

I shared my living spaces with 2 other people who I met in college and we've been living together for the past 2 years. Some people will take your interests better than others, and if they don't, fuck 'em.

>>7765852

>Vast, sweeping generalization of all real women

I'd say just stop worrying. Give him his space and he'll give you yours.

Unless he's a total babby of course, but in this case you'd be screwed no matter what your interests/hobbies were.

>>7765852
I'm just replying to necrobrotent's logic,
>Everyone can get a girl during uni.
It's just that /jp/ don't wanna to, and even if it wanted it would turn out like this

>>7765850
>When you leave your room, he goes and >secretly hotglue your >figures,doujinshis,dakimakuras and clean them >so you don't notice.
Sucks to be you.

>>7765852

For the purpose of throwing all that shit back in their face. It's good to make people mad.

i was college for a semester before becoming a NEET

i had 3 room mates

1 of them stole from me regularly (i ended up stealing some stuff from him on my last day)
1 of them was a cool person
the third one was very strange, he talked to himself.

they all fapped regularly with other people around.
they never found out about any of my interests, fortunately

>>7765871
>fuck them
But I'm into 2d, not into homosex.

>>7765880
>>the third one was very strange, he talked to himself.

/jp/ bro tier.

>>7765850
This is actually the only bad potential outcome I could see.
Would you rather have your roommate ignore you playing VNs and quietly think you're just sort of lame, or would you rather listen to daily monologues about their latest views on type-moon powerlevels?

>>7765880
I would like to meet the third one.
I kind of like to know these people society calls weird as long as they are not violent, I guess this is a weird *cough* hobby of mine.
It's always cool to expand your horizons

high school was so much more simpler when dealing with people. You just had to play by the rules when you were at school.

>>7765882

Eh, I meant in the metaphorical sense. I ended up fucking up my room mate's solved Rubix cube after throwing all his shit on the floor, including his mattress and TV. Then I gave him the now unsolved cube when he was with some mutual acquaintances (I don't consider them friends.)

Everything went as I thought it would, and I enjoyed making him pissed.

Don't mind me, I'm just chillin' in my single-occupancy dorm room, reading Muv-Luv and posting on /jp/.

>>7765886
I would actually feel very comfortable with this actually. It's like having a living, breathing /jp/ in my room

>>7765892
Without the 4chan extension's hide button?
No thanks.

Good night, guys.

Whatever you do, be cool and suave about it. If needed, practice being cool and suave starting now. Watch videos of cool and suave people with niche hobbies. Don't overdo it in being cool and suave because you'll end up looking like a nerd. Don't give more information than needed, for example, if he sees you playing the Touhous and asks "is this like those old arcade games?", don't go on explaining every little detail and game mechanic, just say "yeah, kinda" or something, wait for him to get interested and ask, wait for him to insult first. Also fake some interest in his own hobbies as well, so he doesn't think you're a complete nerd (you might be one, but that doesn't matter right now). And, again, just be cool and suave and do your shit.

>>7766001

I prefer the "complete ass" approach, but I can see the benefits of attempting to be social. To each his own.

>>7766001

If you made it through high school you should've figured this all out yourself anyways.

>>7766001
I gotta say, this has probably been the best post in this thread. You can see that when normalfags talk about their hobbies, they talk as if it's a norm for them (since it is) , that if you are surprised by it, you're the one that looks strange.

>>7766016
Well, yeah, that's basic powerlevel hiding, but hiding your powerlevel for five minutes and spending days keeping your powerlevel from leaking around are two different things.

>>7766016
I made it through high school by trying to live a normal life at school and release all of that social pressure at home. kinda like batman

>>7766016
Homeschool.

>>7766016
But I didn't even graduate high school.

>>7766001
Oh and two more things. Unlike /jp/, when you interact with normals, you have a larger window of being a normalfag for a bit, that is having the "average" reaction to something. For example, if he starts sperging around about something related to sports, you have the window to be a normalfag and say "Oh, that's really cool man" or something. Practice that too. The second thing is, remember to stretch out your powerlevel when you finally are alone. Socializing too much can and will cause it to drop. Just try to use all the time he's outside doing his own shit and fap to loli or tentacles, play some VNs, practice Touhou on Lunatic like a complete autist, you name it. Do your most extreme stuff when you manage to be alone, you'll need to exhaust your weeaboo desire before your roommate gets back and you have to put on your mask again.

You guys overthink this stuff way too much.

i dont understand you people

>>7766083
i dont think you understand how important it is to be a healthy /jp/ poster.

Not everyone is naturally cool like you, ZUNbar

He won't care unless he's a moralfag or something like that. You try not to be intrusive by putting headphones on and being nice when necessary.

>>7765744
I dealt with it by not being American. Seriously, having to share a room with someone? I'd rather go to Cruelty High than American college, especially seeing as how college in America is just expensive adult babysitting nowadays.

>>7765788
Apparently if you complain enough you can get a single. It's what my friend did last year.
