Get it off your chest!

[LadyWentworth]

Who's your team? I'm from NE Ohio, so it's Cleveland sports all the way. I still haven't gotten over that collapse in the ALCS. :(

Yeah. Sorry about that! Mine is the Milwaukee Brewers. Do you want to know what I still haven't gotten over? The fact that the Brewers were in 1st place for 3 1/2 months straight and then they suddenly started to quietly fade away. Then it was like they were never even the top team. They pull this kind of thing every year! Last year's departure from being a winning team to being an ignored team was a little more dramatic than it is usually. Someone actually said to me that they ended up 2nd in the central division. But I don't care because that second place didn't even get them in the wildcard spot. What gets to me even more is the lack of thought put into any of what has happened by the organization. Ned Yost needed to be fired, but did they do it??? NO!!! Why not? Oh, well, he has a year left to his contract (I believe that was the excuse that I heard last fall - they'd probably say something different now :rolleyes: ). Might as well just wait it out! :mad:

This post counts as my rant for the day! :)

I wasn't surprised that the Brewers faded; they are young team and that almost always happens to young teams that rise to the top. The first time they reach that pinnacle, they usually run out of gas. It happened to the Indians in 2004 as well. I think that they have an excellent chance to win that division this year. Cincinnati, Houston and St. Louis are just awful, Pittsburgh will be a team to watch for, but they are where the Brewers were 2 years ago, so they won;t be a threat just yet, and Chicago... well, when was the last time they put together back-toback good seasons? You have reason for optimism.

You have reason for optimism.

Well, the Brewers are classic for fading away even when they aren't a young team. Maybe being young helped them last year because the Brewers normally do that around the All-Star break. They went beyond that point last year. I do like the fact that they are a young team. I hope that is in their advantage. Ned Yost just makes such lousy decisions. There were so many games that they really should've won and then lost because of him. Now they have signed him for another 2 years. :mad: Well, if they win under his management, OK. I'll definitely take it, but I need to be proven wrong first.

So, how do you think the Indians will do this year? I think something to hope for is that they keep their minds straight. I would hope that the outcome of the Championship won't hang on them too heavily. I know that they are now in a situation where I think a lot will be expected of them, but that loss is always going to hang over them (especially with people constantly bringing it up to remind them). So, I think to keep their minds focused is the first thing that they need to get in order. Who knows where the White Sox will end up this year! I never really give much thought to Kansas City, I have to admit. I could be wrong, but I don't really see the Twins making a big jump into first anytime soon. The only one to think about is the Tigers, I guess, but I think you really don't have much too worry about with the Indians. They are a good team! Except if they would have any flaws this year, I realy do think it would be a mental issue regarding last year. They just have to block the loss the best that they can from their minds and focus on the upcoming year.

Yeah. I am not too worried about the Cubs. But this might just be the year that they pull a back-to-back season! My brother always says that they will never win a World Series in his lifetime. Then he always adds on "I don't plan on dying anytime soon". :p

Do you get to many games?

OK! I really went off-topic here! So, this is my RANT for the day! One word:

SNOW

That is all I have to say! :)

[Aston]

You hate snow :'(

[pussnboots]

why is it that some people think they know what is best for another person?

[LadyWentworth]

You hate snow :'(

I don't hate snow. Not really. I just don't particularly like it this year. It has been a hard year with as much snow as we have gotten. We got some last night and we're getting some more tomorrow night. It gets hard when there is so much and the guy who plows the business across from where I live plows that place out. He always plows me in! I had to (with a pulled muscle in my leg, too) shovel myself out again this morning! :flare:

So, snow isn't bad. It is really what happens after it snows that is making me dislike it so much. :)

[Aston]

Okay :)

What's the story, Remarkable?

[Remarkable]

Ah,something extremely complicated...
I heard that some people did a very nasty trick to HIM for St.Valentine's so I sent him a solidarity SMS.He then asks me: "What trick?" and I get paranoid because I think my friend tricked me this time.But then,the next day,I sent him another SMS saying that I heard about a stupid trick which I didn't wholy understand (which is not true) and I asked him if he'd be kind enough to send me a material he should have given me some time ago.He had sent it,with just one word as comment"Enjoy it".I found this extremely ironic and now I'm convinced that he is upset with me since he also hasn't spoken to me since Friday.Still,I haven't spoken to him either,so he might thing I'm upset with him.I don't know what to do,I just can't find the courage to go up to him and have a confrontation.What if there's nothing going on?
And what's worse,I love this person although he doesn't know this(he might have his doubts;a friend of mine says it's too obvious...).

Aaahhh,what can I do?????

And he replied: "Oh,come on,the whole school knows..."

Sounds like you need a little self-confrontation, this might be me just chatting a bag of Doo Doo but maybe you just have to think about yourself here (I like a bit of selfishness) Does he like you?

The damn cat barfs all the time. She was sick when we adopted her from the Humane Society who didn't bother to tell us that we were getting a barfing cat. Their solution was hairball paste because according to them, she was barfing because of the hairball. She doesn't have a hairball...this has been going on and on and on despite our inquiries to the vet. Finally, we called the vet and said, "please treat the cat for the barfing" and we brought our other cat in (who has never barfed) for routine shots. So the vet treated our cat for barfing (and issued an itemized bill for everthing she did for both cats, which included the examination for the barfing). It wasn't enough to mention it in previous vists. We had to schedule an appointment specifcially for illness. So the vet says that it could be a number of things but thinks it's probably gall bladder and gives us a medication for the cat. We're not done with the medication but the cat has barfed twice since we got the medicine, which means that she hasn't improved AT ALL since she has barfed 1 - 2 times per week since we got her. So now, we have to bring the cat in for x-rays to make sure she hasn't swallowed yarn or something. I am pissed off at the Humane Society for putting a sick cat up for adoption. I love my cat, but this barf stuff irritates me. I love cats and I have had many and none of them have had this problem. It makes me think that someone else dumped her off at the Humane Society because they didn't want to deal with the barfing. And I thought I was being a good citizen by adopting from the Humane Society. :flare:

Well,yes,thanks,but the thing is I have no idea how his reaction would be.First of all,I'm completely inexperienced in things like this and then,I'm not sure about the way he feels of me.I would like to give it a try and just confess to him but then,his reaction might be cold and I don't want to lose our friendship.He is a very special person,after all,and I converse with him about issues most people consider uninteresting(literature,politics and religion seem to be boring these days for most of my aquintances).
Many say I should flirt.Should I really?Actually,it is so obvious that I am in love with him that I don't need to flirt.A friend of mine(that is in his class)told me today that nearly everyone has understood...exept for the loved one himself.Ah,I'm is such a mess!

I had a bad day.
I woke up rather later than anticipated, my hair is a total mess, I then attempted to print a document that was urgently needed for today - it wasn't happening. After 3 hours of trying to get it to work with the aid of a computer geek, I realised It wasn't plugged in correctly. I then waited for the bus to take me to my destination; I waited 30 minutes in the freezing cold for a bus that wasn't going to turn up. I then came home and contemplated murder.

I feel awfully bad.

Today I learned that a very,very good friend of mine loves the same person as me and what is worse,she has been supporting me since I affirmed that he is my love.
Last Saturday,apperantly she told him and he didn't express any kind of emotion,neither positive nor negative(and that is what drives us crazy about him,this coldness and unemocionallity).Also,she told me,in their conversation,they mentioned me and it was obvious that he knew.

She and me,we both love him very much and I know that for sure,since for months now,since we confessed to each other that we love someone,we have been speaking over the phone about our loved ones(it turns out to be our mutual love,after all).I know that he doesn't feel anything for me,because he knows my feelings and hasn't said anything and also he seems to feel nothing about my friend too.I feel very strange right now.I mean,I want to be with him,although I know I will not and then,what would my friend feel like?And the strangest of things is that we don't hate each other at all...

I think I should confront him and talk to him about my feelings but just after she told him it would look like a wave of declarations.And then,why should I do if I know his reaction already?I am so confused right now!Why is there love?

Feeling really very melancholic after quite a long time. Can't think of anything possible that can get me really happy.

Probably I have always over-estimated myself when all the time everybody else thought I had under-estimated myself. Probably the situation where I had under-estimated myself with people thinking I was over-estimating myself would have been better than this. The present one is more like hitting the ground from high above.

Today my mam and I went into town to do a spot of shopping. (mainly for my sister in Australia) We left the Stephens Green Shopping Centre and headed down Grafton Street when some moran in an 03 car decided he'd drive down grafton street! :eek: (did i mention it is a pedestrian street and only police and money vans are allowed on it during the day) Now this bloke and his rugger bugger mate (both in their school jerseys) persisted on driving down the street, beeping pedestrians, buskers and string quartets out of their way, and there was not ONE Guard on the whole street to stop them and fine them. Typical. When you need a Guard, they arent there, when you dont there are four or five. any way, they get down to the end of the street to a one way traffic street and what do they do? they turn up the wrong way, cut in front of a double decker bus and swing onto to street that runs along by Trinners. Unreal!

ya know what's annoying??? Giving ones opinion or saying "I don't like that" and having at least 2 people tell you you're wrong and give reasons why you're wrong. Seriously it's an opinion, it's mine, and it's not wrong. Butts.

Okay,, here is my rant for the day... books that aren't available for ereaders. The theory is that either the author's or the publisher's are afraid of pirating. Valid fear. But here is the thing... People pay a decent amount of money for these devices for one reason or another. I am willing to bet that they are STILL willing to pay for the books as well. This is simply a different medium in which one can enjoy books.

If you are afraid of pirating, then encrypt the files. Or only liscence the electronic copies to authorized dealers. Of course, there will be those to figure out how to by pass this. But overall, it should curtail this issue. Gosh this is the age of electronics. Get over your fear of living in the stone age already!

Ok, I'm pissed off. I was just reading a teen mag where that b&*&* Miley Cyrus is talking about how people talk about her because she has curves and big boobs. What curves Miley? In first place, you're flat, you don't have any curves and you're ugly. You're only famous because little kids like you [edit}

[manolia]

I really really want my friend to break up with this guy :flare: Obviously he's cheating on her but she won't listen. I have tried many subtle ways to tell her what i think of him but the fact that i don't have any substantial proof prevents me from interfering further..argh!!!

[aBIGsheep]

So I liked this girl. I liked her a lot. I liked her to the point where just thinking about her made me feel flustered and set my stomach churning. She was one of those girls where a person could sit there by themselves, rest their chin on their palm, and smile as they thought sweet things of her. I stumbled all over myself when I asked her out.
She thought I was cute and funny.
I don't think I've been happy like that in a long time. It wasn't something I'd experienced that much. I miss it, actually. I just miss loving someone like that. It was intoxicating to know that someone loved you that much and that you could so freely reciprocate the feeling. But she had an ex-boyfriend.
She'd gone on and off with him numerous times and they still talked regularly. They had so much history and inside jokes with each other, it was ridiculous. He was competition, and I'm not a competitive person. I never was. I did my best to hold onto her, to make her smile, but she seemed so distant to me all of a sudden. All she could talk about was of that bastard.
I'm not an idiot. I saw it coming.
I couldn't make her laugh. I couldn't make her smile. She tells me how much she reminds me of her ex. That should've been a flag but, I was blind, you see?
I tried my best, I promise you, I did. Who could I blame for my failures? It was my shortcomings and it was my problem. My problem, no one elses'. I sunk into a sort of shell around her. Depressed beyond belief. Angry and distant. I couldn't talk to her without both of us looking away uninterested. And that only made things harder and harder. There was a stake driven into the center of our relationship and the gap between us slowly became wider and wider.
She preferred hugs to kisses. She asked me what was wrong. I told her nothing. She knew that nothing meant everything. I felt like the ***** in the relationship. I pretty much was. She had me eating out of her hand. It was so pathetic.
Ugh
Lunch during the school day was one of those places I thought I could redeem myself. Say something witty without fear of falling into her ex's shadow. Suddenly he appears from no where and has the same lunch as us. We sit and eat and talk with her friends. The two of them huddle off into their little corner of the table and they snicker and giggle like best friends often do.
I could only clench my fists. I'm not a competitive person. I avoid conflict. I asked her to break up. I couldn't take this anymore. She tries to hold onto me saying that I should give her reasons why we should break up. I give her 10 and we're through.
And all of a sudden things are back to the way they were. We're friends, and all I can is see her smiling. We talk, and we giggle like school girls. She's the girl I love again.
We get back together and my hopes are renewed. It didn't last longer than a weekend. That small spark of hope, that faint feeling of tenderness in her touch, everything I admired so greatly of her, suddenly disappeared almost as fast as we got back together. I break up with her again. I can't take this anymore.
We have the same classes; I see her a lot through out the school day. I was her boy for months and I could tell that she was sad. She didn't wear her emotions often or flaunt her feelings like some girls do. But I could see when she was depressed. The guilt I had for her was so painful. Last shot for the both of us, I swear. We talk and I promise to her I'll try do better. I really think we can do this. I'll try hard. I'll change for her. Its my fault. Its my problem. Do better at what? Everything, I guess. The next day I see her and I curl up into a ball. I don't say a word to her. That was it. She breaks up with me.
I couldn't feel anything except loss. I mourned her. I still mourn her. She was my first love. And I hate her for it.
I see her sometimes this new year. She looks at me with a blank stare, devoid of emotion. I return the gaze, and I can't help but think that beneath the slightly sagging corners of our mouths there's some disappointment. Some remorse. Some sort of attempt of an apology. Like a subtle way to say that I loved you. That I miss you. That I know I shouldn't think of you. But I can't, because you're the first person I loved. But you ruined it, you piece of ****. You ruined it.
But I know she doesn't think like that. Because the one way that I could ever see her emotions was the way that she looked at me. She didn't flaunt her feelings like most girls at my school. You could only tell by looking into into her and seeing the joy you caused when you saw your reflection in the center of her yes. But I didn't see that. All I see is a dull, glazed stare from a girl I thought I knew.
I love you and I hate you for it.
I hope I can finally let go.

I think i'm going to have a breakdown if i cant ever get my pics off my memory card! My do these things always happen to me!!!:bawling::bawling::bawling:

It's really awful to need someone you can never have...

Okay...I have a intense and unfathomable wrath now,I literally yearn to yell now!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A plethora and an innumerable of exclamation marks!

I genuinely want to be poised,but this idiosyncrasy pooped out.

[phoebelll25]

I feel that I have already been deprived of my barbaric yawp.
I could not shout, but only wail.

[Jozanny]

LoL...ok, well I didn't know. Again, thanks for the help with my finances. One of these days I'm going to make it big and have a solar powered wheel chair made of gold for you :)

talk to you later,

Love your little(280lbs) brother--

Despite what they cost to keep, I suppose sentiments like the above make little brothers adorable!:rolleyes::rolleyes:

It is WAY too easy to get a driver's license in the U.S. Has anyone else noticed that everyone else sucks at driving? I'm going to invent a device that allows me to selectively tap into other peoples' stereos so I can verbally abuse them through their cars' speakers whenever they cut me off, ride my bumper, drive too slow in the left lane or too fast in the right lane, etc.

its tough to get one here and people still drive like loonys. I think the mentality is, great! i've got my licence so feck all the driving miss daisy i've been doing! by not doing what they are ment to do they get bad habits, and things like that cause problems on the road. its everywhere.

[papayahed]

argh! Last night when I got home I noticed soot on the tile around my fireplace upon further inspection there was a dead bird and some nesting debris in the firplace. I assumed the screening on the top of my fireplace probably gave way causing the dead bird to drop into the fireplace, makes sense right? I called the office this morning apparently yesterday was the chimney inspections which really annoys me, now I'm thinking the maintenance guy came in inspected the chimney, knocked the bird lose and left soot all over the tile.

[maraki16]

oh...that doesn't sound really nice papayahead...a dead bird?...

[maraki16]

i don't understand myself. i cannot understand why do i have to feel like this? why do i want to break up with him? he is a really nice guy. he may not be as handsome as i'd like him to, but i have a great time with him whenever we're together. but it really annoys me that i can't meet him more than twice a week. and what gets on my nerves even more is the fact that he thinks it sufficient!!!well, guess what, i don't!!!but is this a reason o break up? shouldn't i give this relationship a chance and be patient?God!!!! i just wanna screeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaammmmmmm!!!!!!!aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah hhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
ok, i think i feel slightly better now.

[weltanschauung]

i want god to smite all the hypocrites in this world in a very painful and humiliating way. maybe if get many people to want that same thing god will make it happen faster. people, please?
thank you.

[LadyWentworth]

Hospitals are full of stupid people!! I worked in one for years and I was often amazed by the ignorance of the big shots that worked there. I am not going to get into details, but today was an absolutely horrendous day. :flare: It ended up this way because the nurse ignored me and did something that was completely unbelievable. Then the doctor had to be an ---, too! :flare: Things didn't need to happen today, as they did, had these idiots just listened to me in the first place!!!!! :flare: :flare:

[Hobbes]

Hypocricy is the fastest way to learning your own problems

It's not being gay that bothers me but the fact that I loved one person in my entire life and they were straight and it was hell. Sorry no quotes to follow.

[sprinks]

AAAAAAAAAAAGHHHHHHHHHH I AM REALLY OVER PEOPLE PRETENDING THAT THEY KNOW ME AND EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SITUATION. Because they don't - they don't know a thing about it. So they can just go shut their faces. I'm sick of people not listening to me, and I'm even more annoyed at my inability to express myself the way I want to.
I feel better now :D

[*Classic*Charm*]

I hate my best friend/roommate's new boyfriend!! He's old and creepy and all his friends are married!!

[LadyWentworth]

Alright. I am convinced the world is just plain crazy! No, I take that back. I can't include the rest of the world. I have no idea what goes on anywhere else. I can definitely single out America!

CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS ALREADY??!?!??!?

What is wrong with everyone?? I know people seem to want to rush everything and just get it all over and done with, but why do they? People aren't going to be flocking to stores any sooner on November 6th just because a tree is lit up!

I went down to a place called Pleasant Prairie yesterday. I drove past this outlet mall that they have there. Sure enough all of the big wreaths and garlands were up! Then I drove on into Kenosha. To my shock and surprise the decorations were up everywhere. I thought "Well, at least Milwaukee doesn't do that". I went to a movie later in the day. Sure enough the theater was hanging up snowflakes and lighting their tree!

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
I am obviously confused!! And very irritated! I worked in retail for years. I know the game. But why is it getting worse and worse every year? It used to be that nothing would happen until the day after Thanksgiving. That was nice. Now, it is all over the place in early November. Halloween was a week ago!!

It just seems to me that when people want to rush things like this, they are rushing their lives, too. I don't like that sort of thing. If they want to rush through their lives, fine. Don't do it to everybody else. I just think Christmas decorations on November 6th is sad. But that is my opinion and my rant for the day. :)

[islandclimber]

Haha.. I agree.. I saw people putting up christmas lights and decorations on Nov 1.. it seems some people think that the day after halloween is the start of Christmas season.. I personally think these people are crazy... But here in Canada it might be a little different as our thanksgiving is in October... so it's all smooth sailing up to christmas... no more holidays to interrupt... :p

[islandclimber]

I hate my best friend/roommate's new boyfriend!! He's old and creepy and all his friends are married!!

haha.. yeah it is so strange when friend's go out with much older people... I don't know almost anyone who is married yet.. though that might be strange as I am 24.. I have one friend who is married and the rest, well it doesn't appear to be coming anytime soon lol.. even people I know who have been together for a few years don't seem to be planning on getting married at any point in the near future...

maybe you should tell her that you think he is a creep haha... :p

It's not even about him being older (he's 27, she's 19). I don't care about an age difference, if maturity seems to be fairly well matched. It's just that he's immature! If he were of appropriate maturity and she was very mature for her age, then that's one thing. But he is at her maturity level, and I have a problem with a 27 year old who wants to come to university parties and hang out with her other 19 year old friends. And his friends being married is also not a problem, if the first time we met them hadn't been in a bar with his married friend hitting on me! CREEEEEEP. Do you know what I mean though? Or am I being completely ridiculous?

Yeah, that age difference isn't so bad, and neither is the fact all his friends are married, I just have a bias there seeing as I am 24 and almost noone I know is married :p...

but I agree with what you are saying, it is kind of strange when a 27 yr old wants to come party with 19 yr olds at university parties, although I remember from University there were always a few people in there mid to late 20s who would show up to party with us 18 and 19 year olds.. I guess they just haven't really grown past the first year university phase... oh well... and married guys going to the bar to try to pick up is really creepy and sad and lame.. So, no I don't think you are being ridiculous at all.. him and his friend(s) sound like very mature people lol :p

Well, they were selling Christmas merchandise a few weeks before Halloween. I am not thrilled about that either, but I will accept that before getting all decked out with wreaths and trees and lights and snowflakes!! I do admit to liking the fact that they put the Christmas candy out early, though. It is so fresh then. :p Other than that, I disapprove of this nonsense!

Yeah, it's just awkward because it's not like we really have anything to talk to them about. Basically, it comes down to the fact that there is simply something about this particular guy that I don't trust. And that matters more to me than any other factor. But what can I say if she's happy?

This early Christmas stuff is nonsense. We always wait until December 1st at the earliest to decorate for Christmas because my brother whose birthday is November 29th always felt like his birthday was overshadowed by Christmas which wasn't for another month. We've always just stuck with it.

Same here. Nothing woule be done until after Thanksgiving here. So December 1st was the average time in the house. I even saw a house decorated already! Of course, that may still be out from last year and the people were too lazy to put it away! :rolleyes:

hahah.. okay, I have to admit this now, I had christmas lights up on my condo balcony all the way to August from last Christmas, I just never thought about taking them down, well I did but I would always tell myself I was going to do it, and then I would forget as I would keep putting it off to do something else.. and then I went away for a while there and left them up still :p... I think a few times when I drank too much I even turned them on when I would get home... which must have been strange for the neighbours lol.. But I took them down when I came back and decided to sell my place.. I just figured the christmas lights in september wouldn't relly add value to my place haha..

[islandclimber]

yeah, hard to rain on a friend's parade lol.. especially if she is happy and enjoying it.. I guess you make the best of it.. and tell his married friends not to be creeps hahaa ;)

OK. Well, I'll excuse your not taking them down. But ONLY you!! Just because you went away for awhile! Nobody else!! Especially not when they leave the wreaths on the doors and light-up deer on the lawns. THAT is inexcusable!!

Well thank you! haha...

No wreaths on my door, and no christmas tree was left up or anything, and no light up santa or dear on my lawn lol.. that would be terrible.. I can't even stand the light up deer on the lawn during christmas.. they just look so hokie to me.. lol.. oh well.. I suppose they aren't that bad... I just don't like them.. :D

[islandclimber]

Must be a Canadian thing...I had neighbours who left their Christmas light sup all year round AND turned them on every night. I kid you not

yeah, us canadians are pretty strange.. maybe it is our proximity to the north pole lol.. year round christmas kind of thing... :p

but that is just so ridiculous to turn the lights on every night, I could see leaving them up if they are a massive pain to put up, but to turn on every night.. besides being annoying to everyone around, what waste of power haha..

[*Classic*Charm*]

Yeah, I thought the same thing. You can't even chalk that up to laziness. Eventually all the bulbs started burning out...a few more every night. It took awhile, but once it was over, it was Christmas time again.

[LadyWentworth]

Must be a Canadian thing...I had neighbours who left their Christmas light sup all year round AND turned them on every night. I kid you not
I just hope that maybe their lights went on with a timer. I would hate to think that they actually turned them on themselves every night!

[islandclimber]

Yeah, I thought the same thing. You can't even chalk that up to laziness. Eventually all the bulbs started burning out...a few more every night. It took awhile, but once it was over, it was Christmas time again.

well good thing they burnt out right on time to be replaced for the next christmas.. I think I would have gone while they were away and taken down their christmas lights for them lol...

[islandclimber]

I just hope that maybe their lights went on with a timer. I would hate to think that they actually turned them on themselves every night!

I hope so too.. or maybe in our therapist and psychiatrist driven society there is new disorder to come up with..

Obsessive compulsive christmas light disorder...

OCCLD :p

[*Classic*Charm*]

Well I'm glad we've all been able to get our Christmas light frustrations off our chests.

Bad drivers??? I have lots to say about them! I have really had some experiences lately! :rolleyes:

Bad drivers??? I have lots to say about them! I have really had some experiences lately! :rolleyes:

Go for it! Bad drivers are why I'm so reluctant to get my license! Yes, I'm almost 19 and still cannot drive...well, I can, I just don't have anything beyond a learning permit:blush:

Hope none of your bad experiences got you into any trouble!

[islandclimber]

It was about time for a subject change haha..

Bad drivers eh... like the ones who try to change lines on the highway while right beside you?

[*Classic*Charm*]

It was about time for a subject change haha..

Bad drivers eh... like the ones who try to change lines on the highway while right beside you?

Oh yeah, they're just great. It's really sad that there are so many bad drivers around. I was talking about it the other day while driving with some friends. As we were talking about it, my friend who was driving completely ran a red light. It was brutal.

[LadyWentworth]

I like the ones who drive so close behind you. Meaning, the very second your foot goes on the accelerator, so does that person's. They seem to always keep a good pace, too. All that I keep thinking is "What if the person in front of me suddnely stops? If they stop, I have to stop. Then you (the person behind me) will have to stop. If you're that close to me, you are going to hit me". This almost happened yesterday, in fact. It was a bad weather day, too. Lots of rain! That is a dangerous situation. I always say that I am more afraid of other people hitting me than me hitting any of them!

[*Classic*Charm*]

People are dumb. I'm pretty sure that's what it all comes down to.

[islandclimber]

that is awesome Classic.. sounds like your friend is a great driver haha..

yep being tailgated sucks.. I like to slow down and really piss the person off.. that is what I call fun with driving :p.. I don't drive that much though, for it puts me to sleep.. once I drive for over an hour the whole rest of the drive I spend keeping myself awake haha.. and I have driven all the way across Canada for work maybe a dozen times.. and sometimes non stop with another another person rotating 8-12 hr driving shifts lol (of course we stopped to eat, and exercise/stretch etc.. haha)

my friend got t boned by someone running a stop sign at high speed a couple years ago, but was okay, luckily enough.. I have another friend who got hit by an RV that was in a highspeed chase with the police when I was in highschool.. in the end the RV driver tried to go down a thirty foot bank to get away from the police and ended up flopped on it's side at the bottom haha..

[LadyWentworth]

:D I have said that for YEARS!!! Glad to see someone else also has noticed this fact, Classic!

[islandclimber]

People are dumb. I'm pretty sure that's what it all comes down to.

ooohhh. new topic! and I like this one.. :lol:

why are the majority of people so stupid? haha

[*Classic*Charm*]

ooohhh. new topic! and I like this one.. :lol:

why are the majority of people so stupid? haha

Good question!! Are they born that way, or do they acquire stupidity as they age?

[LadyWentworth]

yep being tailgated sucks.. I like to slow down and really piss the person off.. that is what I call fun with driving :p
I do that same exact thing! Then they give me that look like they are going to kill me when they get a chance to pass me by! :p


ooohhh. new topic! and I like this one.. :lol:

why are the majority of people so stupid? haha
I truly believe people are too lazy to use their brains correctly. I don't think people understand the way their brain works. Therefore, they have no idea of how to actually have thoughts in their head. At least sensible ones!

Classic, I always say a person is born stupid. But I don't know. Lately I've been thinking it is their choice.

[*Classic*Charm*]

I'm starting to think so too, Lady. I'm surrounded by people who are attending a great university where they could learn absolutely anything they wanted, and make something of themselves and they choose to do absolutely nothing. It's such a waste. And really frustrating when you have to listen to their fantastic drunk stories because they're talking so loudly you can't hear the lecture.




Not that I'm bitter or anything...

[islandclimber]

Yeah, I love the passing death look lol.. a couple years ago I had this car tailgating me, so I slowed down lol.. and just to qualify this, I don't drive slow, but I don't speed like crazy or anything either.. so eventually this car passes me and it is this little old lady and she gave me the middle finger.. I was so shocked lol...

I have to say I believe stupidity is an acquired thing... I mean one can be born with a lower IQ or whatever, but that is not what determines stupidity in my mind lol..

the real stupidity and ignorance that I can't stand is from the people who revel in it, and seem to be proud of being a dumba%&... that just annoys me to no end lol..

I know that I have done some pretty stupid things in my life, but I don't try to repeat them, and I am not proud of them... and definitely do not boast of my own ignorance and idiocy.. I just can't comprehend why people think being a total fool makes them look attractive and I really can't fathom the people who find total fools attractive... they should be put in insane asylums... that is insanity in my books.. but maybe I am insane...lol

If you're that close to me, you are going to hit me". This almost happened yesterday, in fact. It was a bad weather day, too. Lots of rain! That is a dangerous situation. I always say that I am more afraid of other people hitting me than me hitting any of them!




yep being tailgated sucks.. I like to slow down and really piss the person off.. that is what I call fun with driving :
Thatsactually kind of what you are supposed to do, because if it forces the people behind you to slow down then if you brake suddnly they have a longer stopping time. And if gives you longer to react to whats in front of you.

[LadyWentworth]

I'm starting to think so too, Lady. I'm surrounded by people who are attending a great university where they could learn absolutely anything they wanted, and make something of themselves and they choose to do absolutely nothing. It's such a waste. And really frustrating when you have to listen to their fantastic drunk stories because they're talking so loudly you can't hear the lecture.




Not that I'm bitter or anything...
Yeah, I know what you're saying! Sadly, I think those of us among these people are few and far between these days. So I guess we will just have to accept it. It is just scary to think that some of them may have some of the "powerful" positions in the world someday! :eek2:


Yeah, I love the passing death look lol.. a couple years ago I had this car tailgating me, so I slowed down lol.. and just to qualify this, I don't drive slow, but I don't speed like crazy or anything either.. so eventually this car passes me and it is this little old lady and she gave me the middle finger.. I was so shocked lol...
:lol: That is pretty good! :D


I have to say I believe stupidity is an acquired thing... I mean one can be born with a lower IQ or whatever, but that is not what determines stupidity in my mind lol..
No, I would never say that about someone with a lower IQ. I just say it about the idiots in the world who are born with the ability to not care to be anything but stupid.


the real stupidity and ignorance that I can't stand is from the people who revel in it, and seem to be proud of being a dumba%&... that just annoys me to no end lol..
AGREED!!


I know that I have done some pretty stupid things in my life, but I don't try to repeat them, and I am not proud of them... and definitely do not boast of my own ignorance and idiocy.. I just can't comprehend why people think being a total fool makes them look attractive and I really can't fathom the people who find total fools attractive... they should be put in insane asylums... that is insanity in my books.. but maybe I am insane...lol
Agreed again!

No, I agree with you. People who revel in ignorance are the bane of my existence. Also, people who revel in...let's say...loose morals (to make me sound like an old person because there are certain words I can't use in this forum). My friends and I like to refer to them as the bleach blonde (not a rake but a ...). Not that I have anything against people who dye their hair blonde, but I think you know what I'm getting at.

Oh, I love this too.. from when I was at school, and even now.. I love the people who when you ask them what they are into, they say partying and clubbing.. I always want to say "excuse me?" with a shocked and incredulous look.. how could that be your interest and joy in life???

and drunk stories.. ick.. that is why I have many people who could be friends but I keep on the acquaintance side of the line, and try not to see very often, because I am invariably forced to listen to stories of how drunk they were the past weekend and who they hooked up with.. it is so lame..

One of the operas I went to this past winter, I took with me a girl who I had only been out with once before, and the whole opera she talked in my ear, random nonsense about partying, and drunk stories about her and her friends.. it was actually quite embarassing as she kept laughing aloud, and this was a sad opera "pelias et melisande" and everyone around us was getting pretty annoyed.. I had to apologize to a couple people seated near us.. and I also had to go back and see it again the next week :D.. needless to say I go to plays and operas, etc by myself almost always now, unless I know the person isn't going to be a complete ***...

TEXT MESSAGING! There's a topic I'd like to get off my chest!

Only in some ways, though, because for the most part I'm a fan. I hate excessive text messaging, like when you're hanging out with a friend and they spend the whole time text messaging someone else. All I really want to do is scream PAY ATTENTION TO ME. Though I would never actually do that.

I can't stand when people do things like this.. it just annoys me to no end.. I don't go to the movies anymore because almost always there is someone who ruins it.. I remember a phone going off at a movie I went to once, and the person did not just turn the phone off,, they answered and whispered to their friend for a minute, it was ridiculous... so now I just watch movies at home..

But plays, operas, symphonies, etc.. harder to do.. lol.. so I mostly go alone.. which sometimes feels strange in the intermission standing there by yourself haha.. oh well :D.. I don't mind..

I save the bonehead friends for concerts, etc. lol..

that happening in reallity someone actauly many poeple as a group are sending rumours about me loving someone when i never said anything or did anything and someone who i know ..who is dear and sooooo dear to me is not even answering me ....not anyone I have on MSN...

:( it really annoys me and no one believes me !!!

[*Classic*Charm*]

I have something new to complain about.

I want to kill my next door neighbours. It's this adult woman and her three adult children and their two dogs. All they do is yell. And that includes the dogs. They yell at each other at all hours of the night and I can hear them right through the walls. It's terrible. And to top that off, the smell of their cigarette smoke travels through the walls and now my house smells awful. I can only burn so many candles!!

[islandclimber]

OHHH.. I hate it when people do that! I used to live next to some crazy loud people in an apartment out west..and it was just awful.. loud music and shouting, and whatever else at all hours.. You have my sympathy...

and the smoking is just disgusting.. The people who used to live below me in the condo i am in now smoked and I could never open my balcony door when they were home cause almost always someone was smoking on their patio and it would travel up and right in my door... it sucked...

[*Classic*Charm*]

The dogs barking just tops it all off. And I like dogs, but it's just way to irritating. Ooh, I least I don't get the smell right through the open windows. That must have been terrible.

[islandclimber]

I need to complain about something now that I am sure many have a different opinion on.. but that's okay haha...

I always find it slightly bizarre when I talk to someone about how I love the outdoors, hiking, and mountain biking and climbing, surfing, etc... so many people are like, oh I love the outdoors too.. and I usually ask, oh you like to hike or climb or something? and the answer almost always in this area at least... is... no, I like to go atving, or snowmobiling, or dirtbiking!!! my god! they should be saying they like to pollute and destroy the outdoors, they like to scare away every animal in the forest and zoom around on loud and obnoxious machines that make the outdoors unpleasant for everyone else!!! I can't stand it when they tell me that they love the outdoors.. it just seems so absurd...

[*Classic*Charm*]

haha I got a good laugh out of this- not out of your distress, just your phrasing.

I agree with you- if you're on an atv or a dirtbike, you're not actually enjoying the outdoors, you're enjoying doing something that happens to occur in the outdoors. I can definitely see how this might bother you. It's similar to people telling me that they know how to ride horses when they've sat on a pokey old trail horse or two. There's a big difference!

I like the outdoors, but I won't go so far as to suggest I spend much time there.

[islandclimber]

Yep, I am passionate about this as you see lol.. It inspires strange phrasing.. haha..

I don't think you have to spend tons of time outside to like the outdoors.. you just have to like actually going outside and enjoying nature on occasion and not destroying nature lol...

Yeah I have been on a trail horse when I was a kid, but I have absolutely no idea how to ride horses.. my parents do and my sister does.. and I would like to... but hasn't happened yet lol...

[*Classic*Charm*]

well, it's good to be passionate about something:)

[LadyWentworth]

:flare: WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY????

I was looking through an ad in the paper today and I discovered that they now sell "Little House on the Prairie" DVD's as a complete set. WHY???

I was having this discussion the other day about DVD sets. I was saying how I don't think I am going to buy any "Star Wars" DVD's until they get released as a set with all 6 movies together. It just makes more sense to me. The same with "Indiana Jones". I know they recently released the 3 movie set and this 4th movie is separate. But will George Lucas finally release a set including the 4th DVD in it? So I will hold off a little longer just in case. There are many other series (TV or movie) that I am holdiong off on just in case, also.

There is a major issue with this "Little House" thing, though. I seriously NEVER thought that they would release it as a set!!! I was just saying that the other day! Well, lo and behold, they have!! What is my problem? It cost a total of approximately $290.00 to get these DVD's separately (they were all bought at different times - including some as gifts for me). Whereas, this DVD set is like $180.00! That is unbelieveable compared to the amount spent on the other DVD's!!

My problem is how these people know that their consumers will buy each one separately (movie or TV show) and then turn around and buy an entire set. I think it is terrible to do that to people. They should announce that this is the plan in the first place. I want this. I want it badly. But I don't think I can buy the set on principle. Why should they get anymore money from me? Anyway, what would be the point? (Except it would save space) I already have them all.

This sort of thing makes me very angry!! :flare:

[TheInsomniac]

Do you know what my favroite thing in the world is? I'll tell you.

Each week, millions and millions of upper middle class citizens in the richest countries in the world put on expensive dress clothes, and load themselves into SUV's and drive past homeless shelters, orphanges, prisons, missions and halfway houses on their way to a very expensive and nice church/place of worship, where somebody tells them how to be a better person. That is ****ing awsome, let me tell you.

Lately, especially today, I've grown to dislike Obama zombies. I rooted for Obama, but some people cling on to his every word like its scripture. He's just a politician. He's not the second coming.
(not trying to start a political discussion or anything but this is the "get it off your chest" thread so I think it's appropriate...)

[Remarkable]

I am sooooo mad!So mad at closed-minded people who don't understand what the world is all about!Yes,it's again about Obama but it's not political either!I am not American but cheered with my friedns for the President and all that.Now,this guy I know(I can't bring myself to say my friend,he is alway this very closed-mind small person)says to me:"What do you care?What is this American servilism?What do you care who's President there?It's not as if it impacts your life..."So I made him a long speech telling him that he doesn't get a thing from globalism!And from human feelings!

Maybe you can help me, my fourth toe (one from the last, :D) looks a little bruised. It doesn't hurt normally, it doesn't hurt when I'm walking, it doesn't hurt when i touch it or pull it, it only hurts when my feet is upside down and there is pressure on it. I hope this makes sense. I've been it's my new shoes - but if my shoes were tight I'd feel the pressure and it'd hurt. I don't know what's wrong. the problem is that when I go bed I lie on my side so my feet is on its side or even upside down and it hurts. :bawling: Also, I have relatives who have a similar problem where their toes look bruised, swollen and it ithces and it's because of the cold and the doctor told them to keep warm and wear socks. So maybe I have that - BUT - why is oly one toe cold and ill? I think the others feel left out. I think we should have a 'Drop in Surgery' thread.

That is so frustrating. They always put more effort into the season finale than any of the other shows and that makes you want to see more immediately, but instead you have to wait several months. And then the next season's episode seems to be a letdown. There might be some exceptions to this, but this is generally the case, especially when the show starts doing really well in the season before. Then it seems that the show gets to big for its breeches (britches?) and all the actors get cocky and the show goes downhill...

I really liked Dr. Who's last season finale, although I have no idea how they're going to top it for the next season - I suspect a back to basics approach may be in order!

Uhh wait remind again what happened, was that the DoctorDonna episode?
My sister watches at least 2 episodes every day of ebvery holiday she gets so Ive completly lost track of what happened last?
Oh now I rember

Im kind of looking forward to Torchwood, though this new season all teh episodes are going to air in a single week so I hope I have time to watch them.

I like Ashes to Ashes, and before that Life on Mars.
and I love bones, although I couldnt tell you why. Its not that AMAZING at all.

[Tournesol]

love, relationships, fighting, anger, being exhausted all the time, the continuous mundane cycle of life that never changes anymore
AHAHHHHHH #*%$

Been having a really rough time since shortly after the baby was born...

Don't worry Star...all things happen for a reason, and there is also good in every difficult or negative situation. I can't pretend to really understand what you're going through, but I have been through some tough times - and yes, it's hard, but you will get through it!

[Helga]

life sucks sometimes, well most of the times actually.. I get so mad thinking about how long it's taking my to finish everything I start, I have like a million ideas for novels but I never work on them, my dream is to teach and write and have my work published but thinking of the life I live now I don't think that will ever happen, I'll probably work at the old people home forever :( and I so don't want to

I want some independence for me and my boys....

aahh, it feels good to write down the things I'm too scared to say...

Awww! poor Helga! (((hug)))

My F*#$ing car got stolen!!!!!

I walked outside to my driveway to go to work this morning and my car wasn't there!!
I'm sure it's in f*$#%ing Mexico by now. It's unlikely that I'll ever see it again. I had my phone charger, baby stuff, some photos, insurance&registration, shoes, and a bunch of other crap in there.

The car itself is nothing special. But it's the only car I've ever had and I worked my a** off to pay the $4,000 it cost me to get it 2 years ago when I got my license. I very heavily depend on it. I pretty much live check to check as it is. I'll never be able to afford another one.

It took the police 3 hours to show up to my house. So I was over 3 hours late to work this morning. The cop said there was another car on my street reported stolen this morning as well.

OH NO!!! *hugs*- mind a hug is not what I would want, tea? coffee. cooclate? offer of vengful thoughts and an army of angry smilies sent to hunt down the nasties?
Insurance wont cover it?

[Niamh]

how about something to smash... oh! like the thiefs head for example?

[Stargazer86]

Thanks guys :)

Insurance might give me some $ but the car's not worth much. And then I'll have the problem of getting a used car. I had gotten my car from my dad so I knew the history of it.
So I won't get enough from it to buy anything other than a piece of junk :( And I was saving up for a nice laptop. I can kiss that laptop bye bye now

LAZY!?! I may be lazy about a lot of aspects of my life, but if there is ONE THING I have been more dedicated to than anything in my life, it's this. I have ALWAYS been the hardest worker and YOU KNOW THAT!! That was one of the most painful things I've ever been told. Wow.

Who the hell called you lazy?! I've always found that term to be highly insulting unless it is absolutely merited.
You do strike me as a hard worker and very intelligent. So yeah...that would have pissed me off too :( *hugs*

I was more insulted than pissed off. It was my riding coach. She had me in tears by the end of my lesson last night :(. She's never said anything like that to me before, so it was a shock, especially after one of the most intense rides I've ever had. Thank you though!

And I'm so sorry to hear about your car! That's awful! I hope you get a decent payoff for it :) *hugs back*

aw honey I'm so sorry :( That really sucks especially when it's someone you know saying that stuff to you. Could just be that she's having some hard times herself as people are often grouchy and/or mean when they're feeling hurt or angry themselves. I hope she apologizes to you.

Eh...the car. I won't get much for it. It's worth almost nothing. But it was reliable and got me where I needed to go. I was saying something about it to a co worker of mine. There was another co worker listening. This co worker's daughter committed suicide a little over a week ago (her mother died last year and her husband the year before that) She came back to work so soon because this is her second family. She needed to get back into her routine for her own sanity. I think it's therepeutic for her. She sympathized, and said how much that sucks, but after I was thinking what she's gone through, I shut my mouth and realized...its just a stupid car. Maybe this is inconvenient but it's just a thing. Ever since I saw her today, the car thing is not bothering me so much and I've been able to more or less let my anger go after my initial rant. I feel like such a jerk for complaining about a lost car in front of her. It's very different once you really put things into perspective.

[Stargazer86]

*UPDATE*

They found my car last night! It was abandoned in the middle of a nearby dirty filthy crack city best known for its enormous production and widespread distribution of methanphetamines despite all the major Fed raids on the city. Figures. It sounds like the car's more or less intact (minus some minor damages to the hood and the fender) but I don't believe it was stripped or anything. So now I have to go out to this gross cracked out city in the middle of the desert and pay hundreds for the towing and storage. The city's not too far...only about a 20-30 min drive. But still. I hate it there. I avoid it at all costs. I'll have to pay even more since it has to be left over the weekend. Hopefully insurance will cover that. But the situation could have turned out much worse. And after all, it's only a car. There are worse things to lose.
But I sure am glad I get it back

Stargazer...consider getting a AAA Plus membership...you will spend less than the towing, AAA will arrange everything, even pick a towing service...you'll have a years membership in case you need it again.

I do have AAA. I didn't ask them to tow it. They called me and said it had already been towed and that I had to pay them upfront to get the car back :( So I didn't have much say in the whole matter.

That sucks...

To say the least...but at least I got it back...

I just hope there's no damage inside. One of the girls at work just explained to me how to hot wire a car so I fear that damage is done :(

[Snow Fox]

Why won't people you love talk and let you help?

[jekan blazer]

argh!!!:flare:





ahhh much better!

[imthefoolonthehill]

People are much more likely to read and comment upon a post if it is high upon the most recent post list. When people post for the sake of driving a post count up, it makes it less likely that other, more worthy posts, will be read.

And this ticks me off.

[jekan blazer]

i know huh?

[Shalot]

I hate when you click on a button but the page isn't finish loading yet and as you click the page finishes loading and you end up clicking on something else because the loading makes everything scroll up or something ...GRRRRR

And I hate the "back" browser button. You're typing a message or a blog entry and you hit the back browser button and you lose what you were typing GRRRRRR

and why is FB being slow and crappy today. I simply can't enjoy the day until I do my thing on there...OCD... GRRRRR

oooh, i'm glad that's over with.

The New York Times sucks ***. Not so much the actual paper but the distribution aspect. So this is my story: I was visiting a friend in NJ and they get the times. I was reading the sunday paper and commented that I wished we had a good paper where I live and my friends husband told me they can home deliver to just about anywhere. A few weeks later I signed up for home delivery, the website said they could deliver to my address. Whoo hooo!!! After 6 weeks I have received 3 invoices, I've made 5 phone calls, but have yet to receive a newspaper. Today I called and asked to speak to the supervisor, who informed me that they could not deliver to my address. This, he said, was only decided on August 7. After 6 weeks and four other customer service reps told me they could deliver?????? aarrgghhhhhhh!!! ****ERS!!!!!!

I lost the game.
I knew I would so why does it feel so bad?
Maybe because I thought I wouldn't lose it so badly.

yeah, I know but there's just something I like about sunday morning and spreading the newspaper all over the living room floor.

COMMENT FOR CLASSIC CHARM
Oh dear…you really have a problem. If you are renting, I would suggest you move as I am afraid to say that people are who they are and you cant change them. If it it your own home, then maybe sound proofing would probably save your sanity.
It is a sad fact of life that respect for self and others is no longer evident in these so-called ‘modern times’ so maybe the only thing we can do is to practice it ourselves in the hope that it can be contagious.
Hope you find a solution to your woes.

[Jozanny]

I will place this here, as I am sounding off on yet another issue (and when am I not when my brain is actually focused on something literary?); it is actually quite commonplace, and I've done it myself, but one of my old college roommates contacted me, and I am not sure why, and I am not 100% positive whether she was the loose one who was a little off (though I think so) or the one who did crack before she moved out. I was not particularly easy to live with, for obvious reasons that the regulars do not need to keep reading :rolleyes:.

I wasn't going to post about it, but she is writing to me now, and I am just not sure what to do with it. Whichever one she is, I felt no particular attachment to her. I am sort of drawing blanks even though this came out of the blue and actually always happens to me. Everyone remembers me. Why I don't know, but those who mattered open old wounds, and those who occurred in passing, well.

The problem is, if I can place her I don't think I liked her, and there is over 20 years between that inconsequential sentiment and who we are as people today... (grrr) I suppose I sound unkind, but I mean I both get it and I don't. She was curious to see if she found me, and that is cool, but I'd sort of rather leave it there.

I found her on Facebook. Good God, and I'm posting about this in a community with over 60,000 account holders, but I guess the web still has the ability to throw me a few curves. Jeez.

Why should I go into the water... I hate the beach, seaweed, stones, creepy crawlies, sand in everything. And I forgot "A thousand splendid Suns" in the car. No book, everyone forcing me to go into the water. Why didn't you all just leave me alone. Piff!!!
