My roommate is driving me crazy!
He keeps playing "Crash Into Me" by the Dave Matthews Band over and over again! It's been nonstop for the past two hours! Goddamn it! Play some different music, for Christ's sake!

:wtf: :grr:

2. I used to like the song too.
What's an annoying song that I should play over and over again to annoy him?

I'm thinking "Barbie Girl" by Aqua, but that would futher annoy me.

10. I still think the threat of pork & beans and garlic is sufficient

27. I forget who but
a couple of months ago when I mentioned on DU that they guy downstairs from me won't stop playing the Ying Yang Twins somebody recommended Throbbing Grizzle. I rank them right up there with my old stand by of kids singing Christian music as some of the best revenge music ever.

3. I once lived next door to some kind of musician
Or singer - I don't know which. Anyway, he'd play the same song over and over and over, trying to learn it. And it was never the whole song. He'd play a few bars, then stop it (this was in the age of vinyl) and start over from about where he'd started before. For hours. :grr:

Snoopy and the Red Baron - I remember that one distinctly.

4. So go tell him he's a rude bastard and needs to get some headphones.
Or, if you have a stereo or decent PC speakers, play something loud, nasty and aggressive at a volume loud enough that he gets the point.

6. I'm watching "Jeopardy" right now...
and have the tv volume up really high.

He's too stupid to get it, though.

5. ROFL!
:rofl:

Let me guess - he has a new crush, right?

Poor thing! Come on, I'll take you out for a nice dinner and perhaps he'll overdose on the soft and sappy sounds and be on to something else by the time we get back!

9. See...the thing is...
is that he never leaves the apartment, so how could he have a love crush on anyone?

16. Is he a creepy stalker type?
Perhaps he is admiring her from afar...

Come down to Chicago. You can borrow my jury rigged speaker system. It'll kick his system's ass. Guaranteed!

17. I don't know what he's like.
I never talk to him. He's always in his room with the door closed. :scared:

25. Are you sure he's there? Maybe he's dead/passed out/tripping/
escaped out the window. Pull the switch on him.

31. Justifiable homicide
Any more than 1 DMB song at a time is too much.

12. My roomate did this once........I threatened to kick his ass...........
He had broken up with his girlfriend and decided to play "No Woman, No Cry" ALL NIGHT LONG. No shit.....ALL NIGHT LONG. In the morning I told him that although I loved him like a brother, I would make him eat his teeth if he did it again. It worked.

24. Why do people decide to play the same song over and over again?
I never understood that! I went through bad breakups before and never played the same song over and over! :grr:

26. The correct procedure for revenge
One, dust off your cd of the Dead Kennedys' classic EP "In God We Trust Inc."

Two, put the song "Dog Bite" on repeat

Three, wait and see how long your Dave Matthews fan takes to figure out it's the same twenty-second song over and over again.

Or you could just be like Dave Matthews and go outside and dump a few tons of your urine and feces on a boatload of unsuspecting tourists.

30. My significant other does this
And much as I love Buena Vista Social Club, after the thousandth consecutive hearing of Chan Chan, I'm ready to run screaming into the night. I can take twice in a row if a song is really, really good, but she will just play a song to DEATH! Ugh.
