0:00.0 | What's your... I finally met my online friend, horror story. Back during World of Warcraft's |
0:07.1 | second expansion, there was this guy in my guild I'd become friends with, mostly through other friends. |
0:12.0 | We'd talked more and more over time and become fairly close. He had this butthole roommate and I |
0:16.9 | could hear the guy sometimes, especially when something went wrong during a raid. He'd scream and throw fits. He was pretty awful sounding. My friend told me he wasn't just loud and obnoxious, but verbally and sometimes physically abusive too. I had my own apartment, so I said, you know what? Come stay with me, just long enough to get you on your feet and into a place that's safe. He showed up at my |
0:37.9 | place with a trash bag full of his stuff and laptop. I set him up in the apartment and started trying to |
0:42.9 | help him find a job. Well, he did not want a job. He did not get a job either. He sat in my apartment |
0:49.4 | day after day, eating my food and slowly draining my savings. No matter how hard I tried to get him motivated, |
0:56.0 | he would just dig in his heels and somehow become more sedentary. Eventually, I told him he had to go. |
1:01.7 | I couldn't afford to keep him there. He was just couch surfing. I spoke to some people and |
1:06.5 | eventually pieced together that his method of securing a new temporary place was playing on the sympathies |

1:16.3 | well on me because he had that loud, obnoxious roommate to play off. He wound up calling a nearby |
1:21.2 | relative to come and get him, I think his aunt. I don't know what he told her I supposedly |
1:26.0 | did, but I have never seen a more venomous look |
1:28.5 | from someone in my life. As far as I know, he moved in with his sister and brother-in-law after |
1:33.3 | that, but frankly, I don't care where he ended up. He also stole a bunch of my stuff. First and |
1:39.5 | last time I do anything like that. Met this dude on EverQuest and we played some games together ever since. |
1:46.2 | Being a part of the same guild, help each other out on mobile games and have conversations |
1:50.1 | about life in general. |
1:51.6 | It isn't him that's the horror story. |
1:53.6 | It was his mum. |
1:54.9 | So one day I think we were playing World of Warcraft at the time. |
