Heres the deal, I recently moved home after college. I am relatively a chill person that just goes with the flow. I have things that I enjoy, my brother has things he enjoys, and my dad has things he enjoys. Well thats great everyone has different interests. Heres the problem, my dad is one of the most controlling people and he questions everything. If you do something that isnt an interest of his then he downgrades it as crap and tells you to be more productive. He also works alot and tends to spend relatively little time doing anything for himself. Constant bickering.

One example, Fantasy Football - I play fantasy football religiously and really enjoy it. Games are usually only played 1 day a week so you have to update and on Sunday watch the games and stats as they progress. Today we were watching games for most the day and checking stats. All we heard all day was yall are crazy, whats the deal with this. Then by night he was ready to cancel the internet because of it

I'm willing to bet that your dad is doing the ol' passive-aggressive routine to get you out of the house and on your own. He will be treating you increasingly like a kid. He has done all he can for you and wants you to move on. He also knows that no woman will give you a second look if you are still living with your parents.

Get a job and get the heck out.
Find some friends you can share an apartment with. Buy a scooter to get around on if you don't have a car... or get Dad to cosign a used-car loan after you land your first job.

Until then, go somewhere else to tie up the computer with fantasy football.

You should be moving out on your own. If you don't like the environment, get your own place. That should be happening naturally anyway.
