The "Rant" Thread

The guy actually said, "Eleventy-five?" Who taught him how to count?

There are serious delays on our network at work at the moment.

People that press the button on the outside of the train when you have already pushed the button from the inside then they try and get on before you get off lol and also stupid people who think there right all the time!!

[Bucket]

^Ugh. I know exactly what you mean.

 

My current annoyance is why the general public is so fascinated with celebrities and their uninteresting lives. Paris Hilton got drunk again? I DON'T CARE. Britney Spears is in rehab for the 100th time? WHO CARES? I don't understand why people still watch or read about these idiotic people and it annoys me when people talk to me about these things. I have better things to think and talk about than these people I've never even met or even bother to know about.

I'm upset with the idiot that held up the drive thru line at Wendys. There were two cars in front of me. I just got my food and the driver in the first car gets out and goes into the building. Of course its a drive thru where you have no place to go so its not like I could drive around him, otherwise I would have. I dont know why he just didnt drive another 5 feet and park the car! Some not so nice words came out of my mouth and he finally gets back into his car and drives to a parking spot. He gets out of his car and holds his arms open like he's Jesus. I think he wanted to fight me!! I thought for a second to park my car and yell at him some more, or better yet call the cops but decided it wasnt worth my time. I rolled my eyes, brushed him off and drove away, still upset of course.

I'm sick of my football team losing because they play stupid.

[rollerboy]

I'm getting frustrated because I have to choose between:

 

Go to Fiji and Australia this year for my dad and his twins 40th with most of my family for like 3 weeks!

 

or

 

Go to Australia next year for 3 months when I leave school

 

And also my other "rant" is where I live I get to go to 1/2 maybe 3 if I'm lucky theme parks, A YEAR! And its killing me I need to go somewhere good, fast!

Too much work at the office. I hardly have time to spend on TPR

[ebl]

^ With all due respect, I'll trade with you. I have no work and spend too much time here. Not that TPR is a bad thing, mind you, but working is a bit higher on my priority list.

Today I was at my school's book fair, and I was looking at a book about roller coasters. In it, one of the main things of the book was a top 10 list of coasters. The list really, REALLY pissed me off because of several reasons. I think you'll be able to tell from what I remember of the list:

 

10. Boulderdash?

9. Beast

8. Dueling Dragons

7. Millenium (sp?) Force

6. Son of Beast

5. (Can't remember)

4. (Can't remember)

3. X

2.Top Thrill Dragster

1. Kingda Ka

 

Catch why I'm so pissed off? Expedition GeForce, Balder, no good coasters were on the list besides Dueling Dragons and Millenium Force. And Son of Beast is before both of them?!?!

[astroworldfan1]

Yes, I bought that same book "Thrill Rides: Top Ten in America". I got it for free for volunteering. I totally think the book was wrong in leaving out El Toro.

 

I also just asked my libraian if she can buy Roller Coaster book for the library. She will and I'm happy!

You're absolutely right. I apologize for that

[trcg721]

I lost my Wallet and now I have to go to the DMV to get a new licences.

[ebl]

^ That sucks. My mom was robbed last year and had to replace her car keys, credit/debit cards, etc. What a pain that can be!

 

^^ No worries. I've been on your side of the fence, too. Strangely, I like that better.

It really peeves me when they fill your freakin' fountain drink to high, and it comes out the top of the straw hole, and gets all over you, your car, etc...GRRR Damn You Sonic, now I have Cherry Limeade all over my truck!!

[onewheeled999]

I absolutely hate the Quadradic (sp?) formula. So freaking confusing.

[onewheeled999]

I lost my RAZR cell phone at school on Friday. Which really sucks, because I had no contact with my friends all weekend because my cell phone's my only way of keeping in touch. I just hope some moron didn't steal it.

^ Sucks. I hope you find it.

I hate Arkansas weather. I go home to visit my mom, and my new car gets freaking hail damage. It was all pretty and now it looks like someone was dropping pool balls all over it.

I just moved to the States and started my internship at a hospital. I like it, except for the fact that there is a guy who abuses his "authority" like no other. The guy is only 2 months older than I am, but treats me like a child simply because he has more 'experience' than I. And he is not even good! (I know more about the human body than he!) He's lazy, talks on his handy during work, and makes all of the interns do ridiculous things like park his car from one space to the other for no reason! I feel like I am wasting my time with him because the only 'medical' experience that I am getting from working at this hospital is not going insane from his immaturity. It seems there are some people who start getting BIG egos once even a little authority is handed to them. Ugh, this is very annoying.

My legs are really sore today. We had House Orienteering about 3 hours ago at school. I did quite well, got through the course in a fairly quick time of 25 minutes. But man, we had to run through all of this prickly grass and bush, and now my legs have scratches. Although, it was kind of cool, the path i took took me past a family of about 5 kangaroos, and that was awesome.

 

But my legs still really hurt from it, because i haven't done long distance for a few months now.

[Scaparri]

It really freakin' pisses me off when I can read a friend like a book, and when I call them out on something shady, they get pissed at me for accusing them of it over "nothing." Then, after half an hour of arguing about how they are so easy to analyze, they end up admitting that I was right in the first place! Just give it up! You suck at hiding your thoughts and emotions! Don't get pissed at me for it!

 

It also pisses me off when I travel somewhere and make plans to do something with an old friend, only for them to blow me off. And when I ask them about it, they just ignore it for a few months, only to message me later telling me how it's been so long since we've talked (still no acknowledgment). And after messaging them within 24 hours of the original message, I still haven't received anything back, and it's been a week later!

 

It lastly, it pisses me off when I letter a friend pour their emotions out to me and try to give them advice for a week. However, once their issue is resolved, do they ask what's going on in my life? No. They even acknowledge when I've had a bad day, but don't even ask why.

I don't like it when a TV show is over and they squeeze the credits over to about a quarter of the screen so they can show previews from an upcoming show. I like to see who was in the cast, and it's hard when the text is compressed into almost nothing.

I hate standardized testing! It's all we do in school for the next 2 weeks...
