That's kind of hilarious. Except for the part about the roommate with the injured father.

I find it hard to drum up much sympathy for him however. Despite being single, he had no qualms about dispensing criminally bad dating advice to his friends that included rampant misogyny and date rape as perfectly valid tactics.

If the rumors are to be believed, he took his own advice. This is second hand, but he supposedly got a girlfriend his senior year of college by forcing himself on a "purity ring" girl. She stayed with him because she was now despoiled.

He bragged that he learned how to treat women from his dear old dad.

Nope. He was my Sophomore year roommate. His issues with women were that he, a South Korean exchange student, had his heart broken by a Japanese student at the same school shortly before I met him. This resulted in a whole ball of racism, cultural baggage and "she done me wrong" issues he was working though all at once.

I forget if I've mentioned here before, how I managed to convince my mother not to constantly call me, and not to expect me to constantly call her ( ... )
