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.

Had the night off. Was driving to Bishop to get some meat pies, beers and skate a couple parks. Got called into work. Was kind of a bitchy call in but whatever. Turned around and went in.

Friggin cat has its tiller off, dont know where said tiller is. Find it. Easy enough to put on. But it was on a huge steep bad and its hot. I was spinning tracks trying to get to it. Not super helpful when being precise to line it up and pick it.

Got er done finslly and got over to the parks. Instantly start getting bitched at about stupid bullshit.

Like great a night I wasn't supposed to be here. Didnt wanna be here. Come in because you told me to, just to get bitched at.

Idk what goes through some peoples heads. Regardless if you're even trying to convey real information and not just being bitchy(more the second) being an ass doesn't make anyone work better. So even if it was conctructive(not really) if it brings the level of work down, slows things down, and brings morale down you're doing it wrong.

It's wild the talent people have at taking the wind out of sails. Oh you're motovated to work hard and put in a bunch of extra effort? Let me make you not give a shit and want the season to end asap.

I mean it makes sense. Who cares about the program as long as you csn stroke your ego and boss some people around.

Idk, it is what it is, the industrys has definitely been worse but it's not the vibe I'm trying to deal with these days.

Def makes me consider working with friends elsewhere in the future.

taking the most fuckin explosive shit during first period and sweating my balls off in this hot as bathroom is a terrible way to start the day. Especially after being told i’m no longer stroking our Varsity 8 because I had bacterial pneumonia and was out of practice for two weeks

bro send her family member a dick bomb in the mail. they will suspect that it’s someone they have beef with instead of her so then you aren’t a suspect. ruindays.com has them and so do other sites and its hilarious. sent one to my best friend for literally no reason and for months he thought it was a girl he pissed off 10/10 would recommend.

I made a thread about this a bit ago, but I’m just not in love with my girlfriend anymore and I feel like shit about it, because I make her so happy, but I’m not happy and that makes me like resent her which isn’t fair. Like she doesn’t deserve to be hurt but I know I have to because it’s the only right decision to make. It just sucks honestly :(

i had a buddy who was like this. told me he was going to break up with his gf and he needed to have a talk about things. he was very articulate but still approached it with compassion. the conversation led to a few days or some tough followup conversations and they ended up discussing what each needed and reassessed if they felt they could do it together. they are now still in their relationship and seemingly happy. i think having that initial heavy conversation also opened the door for them to have these talks

meanwhile i was unhappy in my relationship and just lied to myself and said i wasn’t. i had so much resentment that could have been avoided had we talked about shit more. but instead i tried to hide my resentments and only let them come out when i was blackout drunk flipping off my wife. turns out thats not the best way to address issues.

my way was way fuckin worse lmao. you could consider manning up and confessing why you aren’t feelin it and start a hard conversation, give her time to process, and come back with another hard conversation.

I had to wait for a prescription to get called in. Was already gonna be late for work but whatever. Went right to the pharmacy. They just started lunch lol.

Also this rite aid has the worst fucking music ever. I come here to buy beer usually and even in that 2 min its rough. Now im sitting hear bored listening to their awful jams. I dont know if I've heard one song here this season that didn't make me want to fight someone.

I'd take Christmas music over this shit.

I really hate fb market place society. People selling the dumbest garbage for $$.

I get it the economy is whatever but people are just assholes. People are way too addicted to selling garbage on fb.

Fuck i gave away a 1200 drumset in WA begore moving back to CA. Not saying its wrong to sell it, but people are selling stupid $10 items all the time. Like just donate your shit instead of wasting cl and fb adds to get $2 for a kids pair of shoes.



Idk society just seems douchey. Selling junk for way too much money. Cars clothes, trash anything. Fuck this shit

I need to find better studying tactic. It seems like studying the whole course on a day before the exam doesn't work well.
I get avarage grades with that tactic but that is not what I'm used to get.

I don't know what would be the same-ish course over there but I have 4th course of "long" maths. It's about vectors and analytical geometry.
I'm scared of calculus next year.

I don't know how you guys set up your math courses but go to all the study sessions, do all the study sessions and write your own "cheat sheet" of commonly used formulas/fully worked out problems so you can plug new numbers into.

Math in college got hella hard for me but I just started treating it like a mystery to be solved

I missed like 2 classes during this course. Wrote notes and few examples how to use the formulas. We have an app to use during exam that basically ha almost every formula you need. My biggest problem is that I get lost after few steps of using the formula. So I just have grind more.

In terms of studying my biggest problem is that I don't do it enough and when I do it it's not very efficient.

We're doing year end reading benchmark testing for students and the school is refuses to use the legally required Spanish language version of the test for our students who are newcomers (ie. came to the country within the past 6 months) because it would mean parsing two data sets instead of one. Nevermind that the data for these students would be junk data compared to what we could learn about their first language literacy level to establish their familiarity with deconstructing texts and reading comprehension from testing in their first language.

I'm illiterate in Spanish, doesn't mean I'm illiterate and knowing my English skill base would definitely help an instructor guide my Spanish language acquisition.

It was founded that way when there was a mad dash for colonies by several European powers. There was lots of space and few (non native) people so they wanted as many immigrants as possible to help fill the country up and hold the land.
Now we have more than 300 million people living here and the desireable parts of the country feel more than adequately full. When surveyed about where in the world they want to live, 40% of respondents worldwide said the USA.
That's over 3 Billion people who would choose the US over literally anywhere else (including just staying in place). We can't handle that. I don't want even 10% more people in the country, much less 1000%
