Robo Hobo Homo #053

I have no shaving cream. That’s not a real surprise. I only have razors because a guy named Neils gave some to me. I’ve been using shampoo, soap, and nothing at all as shaving cream and let me tell you I can’t recommend any of it. Somewhere, there’s supposed to be a hygiene place where I can get deodorant (I’m running out) and shaving cream, but the only person I’ve heard about this mythical place from is my roommate Larry, who is intensely incapable of giving instructions.

Now, in my personal life, there are three things I generally despise: cities, effeminate gay men; and having other people give me directions while I drive. There was one date where I had all three, but let me tell you, I finally found a living human organism worse at giving directions than gay men.

Larry my roommate is the worst. He doesn’t know east from north, favoring a system of navigation where everything is “up” some number of blocks. Facing is a quaint idea. “That building with the windows” is a landmark. He backtracks to an unknown point in his directions without warning or anything but a quickly repeated “nonono” before he says the next direction with enough emphasis that he thinks you can’t help but now which exact part of the rambling, incoherent set of random descriptions you just went back to.

For now, I’m just going to have to continue this near-dry shaving.
