How to deal with a roommate?

Everytime he talks he strokes his ego. How should I go about this?
-------------------- Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

You can talk to him, but it won't change anything. He's hiding behind arrogance because he has no self confidence. It's a smoke screen. Pierce his armour if you like, but it's not gonna change him

My Dad's like this. Normally I just give a blank look and let him marinate in his own words before changing the subject. People like that don't change if you say anything, in fact they'll probably think there's something wrong with YOU for pointing it out.

And their brains are releasing adrenaline, dopamine, even dimethyltryptamine from the pineal gland! This has serious educational value! Thanatophobia and this N.D.E. is giving us euphoric altered awareness! Don't you see, Princess? We were all born to die! – Finn the Human Pay me what you owe me. Don't act like you forgot. BBHMM.

I wouldn't talk to him about it but I wouldn't ignore it either. Just challenge his opinions. Someone once tried to tell me they were an underwater welder 'once.' So I said, "Oh yeah why aren't you doing it now? How much money did you make? Where did you go to school to learn that?" That's how you deal with idiots.

Do you have to be his friend or socially involved? You can't live in the same place and just have normal talk such as "Hey could you pass me the ketchup?" if your both in the kitchen type of thing?
Make it clear that you are just there to live there because you have to.
Why don't you introduce him to the shroomery and the pub so maybe he will stumble upon this thread. Stir some shit up. Let him come on here and share his point of view to us!!!! Do it bro! do it!
Every one will agree with me that you need to get him on this message board. You need to have him make a account and then to post in this thread!

He won't go for it. I tried getting him on here when he was still pretending to be "a real cool dude". After engaging that reality, he turned about to be a cunt.

I understand your struggle. It's tough to get some people I know to participate in things like this. It's like they are stuck in a bubble. The reason being not that they wouldn't enjoy the website or things. They are simply afraid. Living in fear.

People with to much pride and ego always remind me of children psychologically speaking, teenagers develop a sense of pride because they are being introduce to all these adult stuff (a job, relationships, family death, etc.) that they have never experience before and once they deal with it? they feel a sense of being victorious from overcoming it. and everyone likes to feel good about themselves when achieved something.
So automatically I see your roommate being very immature one way to grow out of it, is when he realizes that he is not the only person that has made the same achievements and there are millions of people out there better than him that no one is perfect
I would just not feed into his ego, ignore it and if you care about the person? just bring it up and tell him that he is being a douche lol

I find is easiest to just node. Save yourself the torture of bringing him down a peg. It's unlikely he is able to be brought down easily.
