Also his father will probably never again work in the industry. "Wait, wasn't your son the kid that complained about never getting laid and then killed a bunch of people out of jealousy? Umm yea we'll call you back"

I was planning to run away at 6:00 a.m., when the garbage truck arrived, because the noise from the truck would mask any noise I make while leaving. The alarm, however, would definitely alert father and Soumaya. I got too nervous and abandoned that idea. Instead, I waited until everyone woke up and had breakfast. My plan was ruined by the alarm, and I had lol

For my first class, which was history, I had to cross the iconic bridge to the west campus. I tried to feel as confident and sure of myself as possible, thinking that all of the girls I passed were attracted to my appearance. They should be. I spent a lot of time choosing out that shirt and doing my hair.

I kept dreaming of the life I would have Also so far it seems that he actually didn't have a single thing against his 2 roomates that he killed, they were just easy targets. I'm not done reading though. His two earlier hispanic roomates were dicks to him and he didn't do anything to them.

Oh he got two new roomates again. quote:Two new housemates moved into my apartment for the Autumn semester. They were two foreign Asian students who attended UCSB. These were the biggest nerds I had ever seen, and they were both very ugly with annoying voices. My last two housemates, Chris and Jon, were nerds as well, but at least they were friendly and pleasant. These two new ones were utterly repulsive, and one of them had a very rebellious demeanor about him. He went out of his way to start arguments with me whenever I raised the issue of the noise he made. Hell, even living with Spencer was more pleasant than these two idiots. I knew that when the Day of Retribution came, I would have to kill my housemates to get them out of the way. If they were pleasant to live with, I would regret having to kill them, but due to their behavior I now had no regrets about such a prospect. In fact, I’d even enjoy stabbing them both to death while they slept.

ginealgo posted:Seriously - am i the only one who feels sorry for this kid? I've never met anyone half as screwed up as this without some sort of really depressingly traumatizing past, and i doubt this case is any different. i don't know if i feel sorry for him but i am trying to understand him. pity is not a constructive feeling. the one thing i see is that his family and friends reached out to him time and time again but he refused all help or was not able to take it. i don't understand what his issue was though and why it consumed him to the degree that it did. i guess he didn't know either. not having sex is not the end of the world for most people, but it was the final battleground for him that he staked everything on (and at the same time rarely made an effort to even speak to women). his early teen years were pretty funny though. he was handed everything he wanted and needed and still managed to cry for hours over something. not snarky posted:the brain is pretty complex reductionism explains nothing and basically says nothing. maybe "people are pretty complex" is at least an understandable statement. as if there were a switch in his head that could have been flipped, and we just don't know which one it is yet. yea right. the worst thing is fucked around with this message at 02:38 on Aug 24, 2014 |

not snarky posted:it could be, though. maybe, but i think usually people are just the way they are, and there's not much anyone can do to change them except to disable them somehow (lobotomy, drugs, etc). their change has to come from within them. but trying to externally change someone almost always just adds more "fuel to the fire". or who knows, maybe in the future we can genetically engineer everyone to be well adjusted and content. Gaunab posted:Honestly he was probably gay, couldn't come to terms with it and took it out on the world he didn't once mention being attracted to men in his manifesto. probably more complicated than this, although there's something to it. he expected (required) women to come to him, and they didn't. like he was a little female himself. idk. the worst thing is fucked around with this message at 02:46 on Aug 24, 2014 |

people are susceptible to manipulation when they think it will get them what they want. what outside forces were going to give him the insight into how to get a girl to like him? he had to figure that out on his own and he didn't, if that was what he wanted so bad. i just don't understand why he staked everything on it. what a guy. i also skipped laaarge parts of his manifesto lol

Jack Gladney posted:Seems like he probably had diagnosable narcissism, at least. Especially that bit about the housemate going out of his way to be insolent only when Roger confronted him about something. How else would a reasonable person respond? and even further than that, he had problems only a rich hollywood-connected kid could have. he was such a product of his environment. like an exception that proves the rule of that whole LA hollywood subculture. the narcisstic outlier, but at the same time, doing it better and purer than any one else in the same environment could hope to achieve. too much? i think that's onto something. like, his actions and behavior are totally alien to me. that could never happen around where i live. the problems are totally different here. just as the problems are different in every place and environment.

DrManiac posted:Even reading his manifesto it seems like his parents did all they could to help him (made him get some job, therapy, ect) and their other kids turned out all right so I doubt this. In fact nobody really did anything to elliot except lightly rib him for acting spergy or be happy around him. The only time he wrote about someone getting at him in his manifesto was when he was trying to murder girls at a party by pushing them off the roof. he wrote about a bunch of other incidents. kids he knew from high school taunting him from passing cars, his first roomates in college teasing him relentlessly about being a virgin. there's more too. and the one good friend he seemed to have (James) he alienated by talking incessantly about how he wanted to kill everyone who wronged him.

Pornographic Memory posted:to be honest it seems unlikely he was secretly gay or had some unknown trauma because look at all the poo poo he wrote about his pathetic life, you really think there could be something more shameful to him than crying over his inability to throw orange juice on the black sexhaver or all the tantrums hes thrown or his weird fantasies of female genocide? i wont pretend to know what exactly his problem wasbut i have a hard time imagining there was anything he held back from his "manifesto" which was just a meticulous catalogue of his boring rear end pathetic life and all his many, many self-inflicted humiliations yea same. he's a product of his environment. the embodied ugly underbelly of the little subculture he was apart of. that's how it makes more sense. the one who took it all a little too seriously.

Jack Gladney posted:That same friend later said that he had never heard Roger speak more than a single sentence at once, that what shocked him most about that crazy youtube video was that Roger had never said so many words at the same time before. There was certainly something way hosed with him long before he started shooting, but not necessarily anything bad that had happened to him. I think the friend was just trying to get away from being blamed somehow for not coming forward with anything elliott told him. in the manifesto lots of at-length conversations were detailed. he wouldn't make that up. and he bought his first handgun for 700 dollars, apparently easily.

Lol elliott was so easily trollable. Like he existed in order to be trolled. He would have led a funnier existence if people saw him kick cry and scream whenever he saw a girl make out with a guy he found unworthy, for the rest of his life, instead of shooting a bunch of people. Like imagine 40 year old elliott at some picturesque sidewalk cafe enjoying whatever gay lunch he always gets, and some attractive yuppie couple starts making out next to him. Suddenly elliott lets out an impotent Arrgghhh! and he runs arms flailing down the street crying. Another lunch ruined! Third time this week!
