Rant About Whatever

Yeah I know there were some rant threads over the years grinds my gears and whatever. I don't think any of them were that happening to dig up. I probably made one of them honestly. Whatever.

I figured if we could rant somewhere we'd be more docile creatures in the rest of the forums.

TOAST.I enjoy concerts, but spending $500 to see one is dumb as hell.
General admission concerts for $50 or less are the shit.


saw zach bryan for $41 at darrien lake two years ago and now the dude wants 690$ for nosebleeds at keybank center. him and his management are cooked

partyandBSwhere do they live? in the 1950s??


Idk, yes and no. For sure but also these days those vibes are on the comeback. Watching fox news and yelling at the tv for entertainment/news/whatever hasn't helped them.

Usually we don't talk enough now to hear anything to racist or homophobic. I guess a football game is a nice place to bring it out.

I think they're like most people these days of that style. They have bullshit beliefs but at least used to be less likely to throw it out there randomly.

Don't worry, they believe in Christian moral values.....

Those are prolly resales. TM bought up all the competition and has resale stuff on their site listed as normal tickets. I think face was like $60. I don't really feel like seeing him in a huge indoor place though. But yeah that wasn't face value. Also TM needs to get fucked. Not sure how they've avoided any anti trust stuff. Them and live nation merged like a decade ago. They own the sales, they own the venues, they own the ticket resale, they get a cut of merch and food. Idk. Fuck TM. Sucks there's pretty much nothing anyone can do. When nothing happened after they merged with livenation things got bleak.

Also ticket resellers are scum

Well fuck me right.


My fever broke on Thursday. Hung out all day Thursday Friday at home. Went and watched the cats griz at the bar Saturday feeling good. Hung out with friends. Still a tiny bit of weird nasal stuff but whatever.


Shopping yesterday and we grabbed a beer to watch the second half of the cowboys game. Beer tastes off but figured the keg was flat or tapped.


Take a sip of Gatorade last night and can't taste it at all. Light a candle and realize I can't fucking smell it. Rip me.


Called to WFH today but has anyone else lost taste and smell multiple days after getting better from what I now assume is COVID? Never lost smell or taste before idk what's happening

maaatttWould be great if lowtide wasn't at 430pm when it's already fuken dark out yea


The thing that blew my mind is that the tide doesn't actually go in or out... it's actually the rotation of the earth. The moon and sun move much slower than the earth's rotation and their gravity is what pulls the water. Idk i guess i'm just retarded to learn that at my age.

Most things tasted off for me for about 2 weeks after getting over covid. Unless you're one of the unlucky few it should pass relatively soon

If this happens to me I'm going to eat cardboard and drink cheap booze. Sounds shitty but also could be a financial win.

JK that sounds lame

Think of it as a bulge of water on earth that is being pulled toward the moon because of the moons gravity. The exact schedule and height are complicated. The earth spinning is why it seems to rise and fall, it's just relative to the position of the spot on earth and where the moon is at that period.

Oh man the double standard between managers and employees is infuriating. Why is it acceptable for management to discipline or have an issue with staff acting or speaking a certain way if they themselves are the same/worse. Some people are cocksuckers I tell ya.

holy shit ski the east is so ass now. it's not any fun, i made it halfway through their newest video before clicking out (it's 4 minutes long). there's nothing to it anymore, just a collection of individual peoples clips. and the clips aren't even cool or anything. and i swore that i've seen the brooks curran and griffin larson parts on instagram before. very dissappointing!

hands down worst thanksgiving of my
life. my mom has end stage cirrhosis so i have been visiting everyday off and more since we got the news. watching her die has been exhausting. yesterday when i got home my mom was waaay off. turns out in addition to liver failure, she has cancer again. 2 brain tumors and one is bleeding so she had a stroke yesterday. no one had any idea about these tumors until yesterday. so now she is on a DNR order and we are bringing her home for comfort care for her remaining days. slept on a hospital bench next to my sister last night. kinda nice that my sister and i both made it down to see her. when the ambulance was pulling up the driveway with the lights on my sister said ‘reminds you of all those times they came to get her growing up huh?’ well goddam sis waita fuck me up.

anyway, here’s a thanksgiving photo. from my family to yours.

tell your family you love them. you never know when they wont be at the dinner table anymore.

I am confident they would make far more money if they weren't charging so much. 160 bucks for a 10 visit punch card and that's at 25% off


Used to get 4 months for that price in Reno lol

climbing gym near me is 35/month for studemt, 45/month regular. It's great. It's in an old barn and everything is dusty as hell. Every other gym I've gone to seems lame as hell in comparison.

does it ever happen to you where you go to your parents for thanksgiving but then your mom has a stroke and goes on hospice and dies so you are at their house for way longer than you thought and dont have enough clothes so you go to the only ski shop you know because skiing is your entire identity so you want a ski shirt but they dont have any shirts so you just buy gold pivot 15s instead and then drive across town but since your so tired and emotionally drained that seeing the baca motorcycle club makes you cry for no god damn reason at all as you unknowingly run a red light but make it to sheels anyway and then you find a shirt that is pretty long so great for your awkwardly lanky torso but it has really short sleeves so you try it on and really its a womens mini dress so you just get a colorado avalanche shirt instead and then drive home just to shower and put on the same shirt as you were wearing before? or is it just me??

My wife bought a brand new car back in July. Took it to the dealer for its first free oil change yesterday. Made it all of 30 miles til the low oil pressure light came on. Dip stick was dry. Can’t wait to show up at the dealer tomorrow and tell them the kid that they pay 30k a year to change oil just ruined a brand new motor.

My thoughts exactly. I don’t think the motor is seized but it had to have done permanent damage. There was zero oil in it when I got out to where she was. It’s got 6k miles on it. The point of her buying it brand new was for it to be reliable, after whatever damage was done this time who knows how reliable it will be.
