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.

Just mentioned an ice machine now. Never discussed pre op. Asked about the cost and nurse had no idea. Also I think she is weary of them and she bought tons of ice packs yesterday. Are they trying to sell her the machine while she is drugged up?

Why the hell is it unacceptable to run everywhere as a way or transpiration? It's so efficient.

cuz of the lizard reptilian peoples forcing people to drive cars and consume oil

idk lol, running seems great late at night. I saw some peoples around the U campus this evening around midnight walking around, wouldn't be a bad opportunity to walk around late at night with a doob or something. seems relaxing af.

Why are any of us awake?

Also yeah it's like I didn't bring my bike out with me so walking home takes forever. It'd be way better to just run home, but I'm sure people would freak out.

forgot why I fucking hated summer days in Manly. Tourists fucking everywhere, rich cunts who can't drive and don't know the local back streets. Seriously I got stuck for like 10 minutes because this one fucking Audi decided to reverse park causing a bunch of cars to back up on a very skinny street and I stop in front of a drive way so the cars can easily go around me. (decided to be a sick cunt and give way) and then this car decided to stop right behind me pretty much meaning no car could get past me because they would run into him. It was such a fucking cluster fuck.

On top of that you have fucking tourists who take forever to cross the roads. My fucking light is green why am I still waiting for you fucking pedestrians. And westie cunts who swear and are just loud. fuck off.

mid to late 20's, early 30's single women are the fucking worst. They still have the confidence of being a smoking hot 22 year old, but look 10 years older. They always talk back to the bouncers and think they're always right. That off them. Just fucking enjoy your night instead of trying to get everything you way. People walked out of the bar, and they're not letting more people in. Who fucking cares? Go somewhere else if you're so pissed off at it.

Emphasis on single. They're single for a reason. Their eggs will dry up and die inside them just like their hopes and dreams. And then they'll settle.

Google is fucking shit as usual.

Apparently logging into gmail, on the same laptop I've been logging into gmail on for 2 years, in the country I made my fucking gmail, from a tab that was open to gmail is suspicious.

Also gotta love when google says "somebody has your password" when you login sometimes instead of "Our really bullshit security features indicate somebody might have hacked your account or we could just be retarded".


But no "Somebody has your password, you need to change it now!" Then when you log in with your old one by accident it's like "Your password was changed ___ ago! Didn't change your password!?!?" "Oh yeah, I fucking forgot your shit security made me change it for no reason.

Thanks again google. Fuck you.



Also TSA


Ignorant fucks from the inner city that can barely speak. Airport security is a joke anyway but for the people that actually think there's a threat, if you believe the people employed by the TSA are going to save you LOLZZZZZZZZZ.

Can we just get rid of all the bullshit? Then again it's a blast to take orders from some dumb cunt that probably can't count to 10. I love America!

YEah, the benefits and pay probably aren't bad. That's probably what keeps some of the people so motivated. Also they get to wear a uniform that says they're important and get into full rent a cop mode.

But yeah, people who still can't figure out how to travel are annoying. Oh really I have to do this? With policies that have been around for a decade and change.

I think I need a fucking nap. It's nearing 30 hours of airports and airplanes and I'm cranky as fuck. The flight attendants gave me the craziest look when I asked for more wine on my last flight. Also told me to drink water. On a 10 hour flight I had 5 glasses total I think. I mean 5 is a high number for a flight I guess but these flight attendants acted as if that was going to get me wasted. Fuck, I could probably chug all 5 of those and be fine, so over 10 hours? Fuck you, bring me the damn wine.

I think I'm going to grab a drink right now. Haven't been drinking much the last few weeks but something about dealing with shitty people when you're tired makes it pretty fucking appealing.

I wish I could sleep on planes.

Why did i decide to take this class from 6-9 every Thursday night all it makes me want to do is fall asleep. Plus this dude just reads straight from the slides and then goes on rants about his IT company or his wife or whatever playstation tv is and how its SO much better than netflix/hulu. Worst part is a large part of our grade is attendance and these quizzes he gives out so you have to go.

I applied to the local ski store in May and never heard back. Not a huge deal since I already have a job.

So I went in there today to get some skis mounted, and a new girl was working. She seemed like she knew what she was doing at first... but then she forgot to ask me where I wanted my skis mounted. I spoke up and told her I wanted them mounted -4. She said something to another employee and the fucker said " Ok, I'll fill out a center mount form for you". I said I didn't want a center mount...and three employees looked at me like I was on crack. According to them, twin tips were "supposed to be center mounted".

Then they charged me full price for a binding mount ($80), even though I had bought my boots and bindings there and had the receipt to prove it. Should have been ($40). I made that very clear and they just blew it off. This same store already fucked up a pair of my skis in the past, and they market themselves as "The Midwest's #1 sporting goods store". Another employee tried to get me to buy full tilts one time even though my feet were too wide... he said my feet would "adjust".

I've learned that some stores hire based on looks rather than skill, and I shouldn't feel bad that I didn't get the job.

Don't shop there, and def don't work there.

If you can go to another shop, if not buy your shit online. There are some pretty solid online companies and some that are pretty much a store that sells online in addition. Fuck supporting a place just because there is no alternative,

A developer wants to put in a 14 unit apartment in my neighborhood and last night was the only chance to comment. Meeting started at 7 and it was after 10:30 by the time public comments were over. People asking for the change were totally lame and went over time. Also had people that aren't even from the area (and who had a striking resemblance to the developer) make pro comments that weren't even relevant like how nice they think the developer was to their baby, (that woman went over time too). This thing is probably going to go through anyways but I had to get on record saying I'm opposed to it.

I fucking hate tourists so fucking much. Today I was driving behind some car with an out of state number plate and saw their mirror clip a parked car mirror. Didn't even bother to stop to check if the car was okay. Just kept driving. Some people are such fucking cunts
