Some people say when you live with someone, you’ll find out more about the person. Well I did find out some stuff about Matt. (FYI, when you see things in brackets, this means that this is what Matt insisted that I put in, it wouldn’t be here if I had a choice.) For one, he is damn cheap (frugal). Please allow me to elaborate.
In our boredom after work in our rooms, we have taken to playing the drinking game up-down. Penalty was drinking a shot of whisky. Everyone was cool about the rules, and we poured a reasonable amount of whisky into the glasses whenever we lost. Well…..almost everyone. Matt was pretty high (a little tipsy) an hour into the game, and on one of his penalties, he poured an amount of whisky into the glass which could only be scrutinized when you tilt the glass.
Well if you thought that was the end of it, you were wrong. Instead of saying “I can’t drink anymore” and switching to water, which we would accepted in good grace, he came up with the excuses of “I hate whisky”, “I don’t want a nosebleed cause its too heaty”. When offered to switch to vodka, he readily agreed, thought about it, and stuck to whisky.
That was only for session 1. In session 2 on another day, he said he felt like a drink. I was intending to work, but since Matt invited, and since it was a real rare occasion, I agreed. On his turn, the card was an 8, and he said up. When a 6 appeared, he said, “That doesn’t count, I meant to say down”, and refused to drink. Later into the session, he was drinking one of his penalties, choked on the whisky, and watered the floor. Instead of drinking another shot, he said that counted as one shot”
I leave you guys now to make your own judgments ^^
