How do you shake somebody?

the guy sounds needy and dependent. those types tend to hear what they want to hear. if Mick Zagger is blunt about it, the guy will react negatively.

he's better off just remaining distant and aloof, while maybe throwing him a bone every once in the blue moon to establish his position as alpha male of his workplace.

Probably the best route. I mean I like the guy and all, enjoy hanging with him sometimes. But, I'm not really taking best friend applications at the moment. I'm not the first one at work that he's wanted to be besties with.
 
just get really good at making excuses, have a few in the queue.
 
Provoke him to make 2 self-deprecating posts saying that he's not sincere. Then cite some unused rule.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to jlprk again.
 
Praise his family, and tell him they need his undivided attention right now.
 
You guys are all Pussy's.


Just be straight with him and tell him what's up. "I like you as a friend and all man, but I'm really put off by you calling me all the time. I know your really excited, but can you tone it down a tad?"

Talking about friendship with another guy is just wrong.

Zags, just blow him a few times. I mean blow him off. You care too much about this.

Either that, or start hinting about your "Tarzan" collection of photos.

. Not 'besties'.

Just tell him you'd like to be "besties" with him, and then pinkie swear it.

The dude's a big ass black dude, ex military who is always packing heat (CWP of course) and is paranoid of Portland Police.

This is the Portcouver edition of Rob and Big. Let's call it Zags and Big, put it on community access, and let the hilarity ensue!

You could be my protege. Well stated!

You've never met me. I'm a dick to overzealous pricks on here, sure. Its easy. I'm not as good at it in real life though.
 
Tell him your long lost brother Divinio has been transferred by the Mob to Portland, wants to reacquaint with you, and is jealous and angry about your friend taking your time. Tell him you're very afraid of arguing with Divinio and regretably, Divinio wants to talk to him unless the friendship ends.

If that doesn't work, offer your friend money if he'll leave you alone. When he negotiates, try to hold him below $100 per week. As the weeks go on and he demands more, just sign over your paycheck to him every payday. Sell the house, whatever it takes.

If that doesn't work, just shoot him. I know, it's a tough decision. Been there, done that, lonely again, came here to make friends.
