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.

-PoonHammer-I hate it when people post rants about how "this generation is addicted so social media, we're losing communication skills, etc." ON SOCIAL MEDIA

DOES ANYONE ELSE SEE AN ISSUE WITH THAT


I did that in NZ because I thought it was hilarious. Was at a hostel and everybody was on there phones, nobody was talking to each other. Like you're in a room full of people your age traveling, and you'd rather see who like your shitty profile picture every 3 seconds rather than talking to them.

Also somehow in trying to right the rant found myself in a conversation with this german girl next to me and took me about 2 hours to post said rant. People were all like "But oh my god why you judging and you're on social media and omg like whatever" and I was just like "mhhhmmmmmm"

yeahhhhhhhhhhhh

people should be able to do what they want as long as they are not interfering with anybody else's ability to do what they want. Fuck locking people up for non-violent crimes.

So there's this new girl at work. She's been here all of a week and a half and she cannot make it through a shift without having her boyfriend stand BEHIND THE COUNTER WITH HER while she's checking people out. And they suck face in between customers and its absolutely fucking disgusting.

Now we opened together and as she works on the floor and I work in the dog grooming department of the pet store, we can usually keep distance so she doesn't get any crazy on me. But today she decided to follow me around while I was cleaning the salon and she decided she wanted to tell me her life story.

So she lived in Texas up until she moved up here about two weeks ago to move in with her boyfriend that she met online and his family. Now I think it's kinda strange especially since they're both 18, but I'm really not one to judge. So I ask her if she's going to go to school around her, and she says she dropped out of high school for him but its okay because he's going to make a lot of money when his parents die so we are going to rely mostly on inheritance. What the fuck. Then she asks me for $6 so she can go to chipotle and get some food and an hour after I say no, she comes back and asks my boss, of the grooming salon, if she can give her a ride to the airport tomorrow so she can go to her grandmothers funeral.

It seems like people (especially southerners, sorry for potential butthurt) have no idea what is socially acceptable or not anymore. Like yeah it's cool to be friends with your coworkers but she's taking it to a whole other level way too fast and it's making everyone so uncomfortable and it's fucking strange. Plus she grabbed me by the shoulder today and it took everything in me not to backhand her back to Texas. Jesus Christ I am not a people person.

Woke up pissed because the roads were too shitty to drive to the hill. But now I have the chance to study for my last final and watch the dew tour and hit my backyard set up. I'm actually really looking forward to today!

After Saturday morning I'll be done with exams and I'll be able to start working at Panera again! I miss everyone and I'm so excited to be working there again! I have my availability set up so I can work half the day and ski the other half. It's gonna be so perfect. I'm really excited for the next couple months!

Also our Breck trip is in a month from Saturday!! Ahhh. I have so much planned for an edit. I can't wait to put it together and see how it comes out. So stokedddd! /happy rant

Also this which I think some of you have jumped through. Obviously not as private as pms but would be sweet if it could get rolling and functional.

A lot of depression/anxiety/ stress/ whatever on here. Seen too much over the years. Just figured it would be cool if there was a spot where people could get some advice on here, let off some steam or whatever.

Anti rant.

Thank Jebus for pow days, friends, solo runs, and the beauty of nature.

Sometimes that's about it on the + end of the spectrum. A millions things I could rant about at the moment. Lot's of bullshit, lots of stress, but luckily some untracked runs through the woods in good early season snow were there to make things better.

I think people stand there to make themselves look cool. Like "yeah dude I'm gonna try to 7 this." Then they proceed to ski/snowboard next to the jump line. Happens all the time around here. Its really annoying.

I hate my roommates complete lack of understanding about my mental health and how she trivializes my anxiety and depression. She'll bug me to talk to her about whats going on with me, so I eventually give in and make the mistake of talking. About 10 seconds in I watch the switch in her brain flip and now she's not listening anymore, she's waiting for me to stop talking so she can 1 up me.

I honestly don't even know how to explain it in a post. It's like she thinks its cool to have issues. I swear she spends all her time trying to prove to me that her life is so terrible and that she can somehow understand what its like inside my head when it is so obviously not the case. She just craves attention.

I wish I could tell this to her, but then the drama queen will just try even harder to prove to me how awful her life is.

I really miss my step-brothers, they've always been so nice and understanding about this stuff, and have always actively stood by me and helped me out of the worst of it.

For sure. You're not in a rush and trying to snake the drop but you're waiting and nobody goes then you call drop and someone else goes in front and you stop, then they go right around the rail or jump and you're like FUCK YOUUUUUUU.

Really bad preseason/post season when there are hundreds of people trying to hit a few rails.

Why are you bitching. My life is so much more terrible than yours. I have way more problems than you.

Oh wait lol.

But really that sucks man. It grinds my gears when people do shit like that. You don't want to do something, they bug you, you do it, and then they aren't there on their end. From your situation, making plans, whatever.

It's bad when you open up and get a negative reaction from it. It make's you less likely to internalize everything and not open up to anyone. That's not healthy though. Then again, what are you supposed to do if you're not comfortable talking about things with people, or you don't have people that can handle listening without being assholes.

Good luck. Hopefully things balance out with the snow falling. OR at least skiing is an extra crutch toward survival.

When you send someone a facebook message on Thursday asking if they're busy Saturday, and over the course of Friday and Saturday moring, notice that they're online, but won't reply to you until 5 o clock Saturday night saying "oh I'm sorry I didn't see this until just now, sorry I already have plans."

So you want to say," what about all those times you were online, today?" But you don't want to sound like a creepy stalker, so you just chill with your cat and watch hockey, which isn't actually that bad I guess. Thanks bitch, for giving me a solid bro night with my cat.

Doing a corporate annual report thats due tomorrow by 12. One of the 3 partners already did 17 pages so he passes the rest off to me and this other kid. That kid splits it up and gives me what I have to do. Then he says a forgot to add a few pages so he emailed me pictures of them. Like really? Have you not heard of a scanner? This campus has plenty of them. Now I have to either retype the questions or try and find a way to print the pics as the same size as a piece of paper. Like what the fuck man.

Ditto brother. Super broke right now (I have a job over break but might not even have enough cash for christmas gifts). I could have gotten a second job first semester but instead decided to burn through all the money I saved this summer and some student loan money aka what I tell myself I wont do the next year but always end up doing it. If I made enough money to cover gas, weed, beer, food, bills, and rent Id be more than content. They always factor in when Im thinking of bill payments too (like "I could pay this bill but then I wont have money for weed). I'm glad my dad raised me with priorities though, just sucks cause it can get real boring during the day and weed helps make that a little better.

Oh well I bring all this financial stress/anxiety on myself, hopefully one day (aka next semester)I'll get my shit together and actually start saving money instead of wasting it on fast food, drugs, and alcohol. Goddamn I need to get it together.

NS is the only social platform I know of that has down votes, which are pretty much "dislikes." Everyone is so obsessed with getting people to push that thumbs up button on their instagram photo or a clever facebook status and I believe that people should be able to dislike whatever they want on whatever social media so the person posting stupid shit can realize that they're stupid. The amount of butt hurt on Facebook or instagram due to down votes would be hilarious. Also, it would keep people's ego's in check. When I post something I think is funny on NS and it gets hella down votes, it makes me think, "hey, maybe im not that funny" or "wow, im better than that stupid post I made."

So NS is pretty much making us better people by allowing down votes. Does anyone agree with this at all? or do i sound like a fuckin idiot?

I agree with this, mind you if there was a dislike or downvote button on places like facebook, it wouldnt get used far as much anyways because there's no sense of alias on facebook, and straight up not liking what people post is portrayed as being a dick.

Honesty if that continues you need to go in. Especially if you start feeling severe pain near your kindeys, start feeling really tired or wore out, and or have troubles breathing. What goes in must come out and fluid doent pick the most ideal spot to hangout when it cant get out.

this stupid fucking teacher teaches Western Civ in college which is by far the most pointless GE in the world. Lectures everyday for the entire semester just puts slide up and reads them for an hour. Gives us the hardest final and asks 10 questions within the essay question. I end up with a B- in what couldve been the stupidest class in the world and brings my GPA down. I hate how College's make you take these pointless classes that just fuck ur GPA and you get nothing out of them because ur major has to do with sports not about how Europe came to be Europe.

I get up every morning at 5, get home ~6, make dinner, shower than go to bed. I understand you want to hang out, but you don't have a job, and I do. Let's work around when I have off, so I can be well rested for the next day. It's not that hard.

I was scheduled to work 7-4 today. Pretty normal day, whatever. The guy who was supposed to take over after me came in and I guess his aunt passed away this morning. He called everyone who knows how to close asking for them to take his shift and they all said they couldn't work. Im the only other person who knows how to close so he asked me last. Obviously I'm not going to say no. I'm not mad at him at all. I completely understand him needing he day to himself. But I don't get why 7 other people all said no knowing his aunt passed away. Like a 5 hour shift is not that terrible, especially given the circumstances. Id expect at least one of them to be a decent person to let this kid spend some time with his family today.

I don't know if I'm just being overly sensitive/bitchy but if someone in my family passed away Id want someone to take my shift too. I just don't understand how I'm only one who thinks that way. I feel so bad for him especially because it's 9 days before Christmas(his family is very religious so christmas is a big thing for them). He was all choked up when I was talking to him too. I just can't believe nobody else could suck it up and take the shift for him. Ugh. I don't like people sometimes.
