Zayd Sayd, Part 1

I have to write a critical review for one of my classes but I don't feel like doing it. Well, not that I don't feel like it, more that I'm not feeling creative enough to write a clear and concise piece of academic literature. So instead, and in hopes of getting my creative juices flowing, I'm going to write a post (the first of a series I hope) that I've been putting off for about two weeks.

So my roommate, Zayd, is quite the paranoid android; remember the time he lost his eyes!?! Yeah, well that was just the beginning.

About two weeks ago, I emerged from my cave to find him staring into the fridge with a confused look on his face; this is why:

me: Hey! What's up?

Zayd: Did you go out on to the balcony today?

me: Yes... why?

Zayd: Because the door wasn't shut properly and I thought someone had broken in and put a rotten zucchini on my shelf. (pulls out the zucchini from the fridge)

me: No. That was me. It was on my shelf and it's gross and I thought it was yours so I put it on your shelf.

Zayd: That doesn't say much about what you think of me.

At this point I just started laughing and began to walk away when...

Zayd: Oh, and I got a weird message the other day.

me: Really!? What kind of message?

Zayd pulls out his phone to show me this:



Apparently Zayd Sucks.

me: Wow! That's a mean message... I wonder who would write that on our stairs...

Zayd: I don't know. I interrogated the other roommates and they both said they didn't do it. I even called one of my old roommates 'cause I thought maybe he came by to leave me this nice piece of work. He said he didn't.

me: Well, I don't know who it could have been. I mean, it's not as if the writing is familiar or anything.

Zayd: I looked at some of your stuff and saw the some of the letters are the same...

me: Hm... that's really weird.

And with a big, honest-looking smile I left the room. Then I asked him to send me the picture so I could eventually post it here and share the mystery in hopes of finding out who did it.

The mystery is still unsolved, but I'm pretty sure that I successfully convinced him that it wasn't me... Pretty sure.
