My new roommates, Sam and Dana moved into my flophouse about a week ago and they are really creeping me out.
I hadn't really talked to them much until last night, when Dana offered to make dinner for everyone. Making dinner for us all would have been a nice gesture, except without asking, she used
my food to make dinner. She grilled up about 12 hamburgers using my meat. There was so much food leftover, she started giving hamburgers away to our neighbors.
Anyway, Sam, Dana and I were sitting around eating hamburgers when things started to get awkward. I asked them how they ended up living here and they explained that they had been sleeping together at Dana's ex-husband's house, but then Sam had a fistfight with the Dana's ex, so they had to move here. They had heard about the spare room from my neighbor, Tom.
I didn't want to talk anymore about their bizarre former living situation, so instead, I asked them how they knew our neighbor, Tom.
Sam says, “Tom? Hell, I've known Tom forever. I went to high school with Tom's younger sister and about 5 years later, Tom and I were in prison together.” I laughed a little because I thought he was kidding. BUTNAHHH. He was serious. Things got real quiet, so I tried to change the subject.
Me: So, you are from around here then?
Dana: Yeah, we both grew up here.
Me: Do you still have family here?
Sam: Yep, my son is 22 and Dana here has got two grandkids.
Again, I smiled a little and waited him for him to show some sign that he was joking because both of them look about 37 years old. BUTNAHHHH. Sam went right back to eating his burger. It was the most painfully awkward meal ever. I couldn't bring up anything without learning another disturbing fact about them. Neither of them had worked in about a year. After they found out that I played online poker for a living, they kept asking me when I was going to teach them how to play so they could make money, too.
I tried to telling them stories about my former flophouse roommates, but that didn't help. I told them about the crazy Jamaican girl who I was sleeping with that eventually tried to stab me with a butcher knife (

Sam kept saying stuff like, “I wouldn't put up with that **** ever. If some bitch pulled a knife on me, I'd ****ing kill her.” Dana smiled and nodded.
I ate as fast as I could so I could get away from the these sketchy people and go back into my bedroom. I spent the next two hours playing poker and then I got up and walked toward the shared bathroom. The bathroom door was wide open, so without thinking, I walked right in. I had taken two steps into the bathroom before I noticed that Sam standing in front of the toilet. He wasn't peeing. He was just standing there silently with his dick in his hand. And then his head slowly turned toward me. And then he smiled.
I immediately went back in my room, peed in a Powerade bottle, and I haven't spoken to Sam or Dana since.
I've already talked to my landlord and I will be moving out at the end of the month. Any survival suggestions until then?
Cliffnotes: My roommates are scary people. I think Sam is considering raping me.
