Is The Merc With A Mouth The Perfect Roomie?

We did a science (literally a whole science; there were lab beakers and everything*) to find out what our community thinks of the one and only Merc With A Mouth, aka that startlingly handsome guy who is absolutely, 100% definitely not Hugh Jackman. Now the results are in.

So what do the Ideal Flatmate community like most about the (in)famous Mister Pool? Some guy called Ryan. Who? Oh, right, he’s the actor who plays Deadpool. What’s the big deal, right? Just some guy who

– all right, a reasonably good-looking guy who –

 

– wait, what were we talking about?

Right. Right. Deadpool. Yes. Ahem.

Yucky avocado face guy. Super healing powers and red spandex. Very popular red spandex, apparently. Hey, at least it isn’t bright green CGI for a costume. But come on, people, who wouldn’t want to give a gentle stroke to that sexy-ass scarlet elastane finish?

Plus, he’s funny. Quite a few people remembered that, so we’re going to go out on a limb and assume that everyone in our community is not, in fact, perving sufficiently over Ryan Reynolds for that to be the only reason that a whopping 82% of you voted in favour of having Deadpool as a flatmate. You’re all aware of his tendency to blow things up, right? Yes? Okay, then, presumably some people don’t mind never seeing their deposits again. At least DP has the in-flat entertainment down pat.

Unfortunately we don’t have the esteemed Mr Pool, or his counterpart Mr Reynolds, currently on our books looking for roomies (although let the record show that we stand ready and willing to help if either incarnation is ever in need), but if you’re looking for a room to rent in London and the perfect flatmate with the right sense of humour then we can probably help you out. Spandex is entirely optional.

Or not. Your call. We’re not here to judge.

*disclaimer: we are not scientists, and there was actually a little less than zero science involved in this.
