Random Rants 3

[Verge]

Oh, the humanity!!

I will pray for you, my friend. Other people may rant about comparatively silly things: having to do homework to learn at school, poverty, the hardships of life, and of course, Swedishguy's ongoing struggles with being, well, Swedish.

But you -- YOU -- have touched my heart. Normally I am calloused to the relatively minor annoyances of genocide, war, religious conflict, and the evils of both capitalism and communism. But your plight, your willingness to share, to reach out and expose your personal pain to the world -- this has penetrated my normal shields and zeroed right into me, and I feel -- nay, I weep -- for your plight. I only hope that your sharing will help others to avoid suffering this terrible calamity for themselves.

I wish that there was something more than I could do. I feel helpless against the onslaught, and fear that this catastrophe will be repeated. If only there was some organization that was working against this scourge, that I might be able to do more. Perhaps if I sold all my possessions, I could help them to make even a small dent in this problem.

Sure, they are those that would be skeptical, and even accuse you of bringing this upon yourself. Some would be so crass as to ask you why you did not shake up your beverage. Talk about pouring salt into the wound: just blame the victim, why don't you? Leave this poor person alone. Haven't they suffered enough?

I'm sorry. I kind of went off there. But this level of suffering sometimes just overrides my reason and I lost all control. It's almost like a primal empathic reaction to seeing another soul in torment. Go with God, my friend.

A sarcastic reaction to an equally sarcastic complaint. I like

The fact of my computer shutting down for no reason, and I can't trace the problem. Its not overheating, not a hardware problem, ARGH!

 

[Slaughter]

I hate mathematics. **** mathematics. Mathematics sucks. After the sixth grade, I'm not going to need it. It's too specialised and complicated for a average joe like me.

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

I HATE my firggin' graphics card. I hate not being able to buy games as frequently. I hate not being able to have my Wii in my dorm. I hate having a crap load of papers to do in the next week.

Why the hell can't February 10 come already so I can just slouch around and play Smash Bros.?

 

[ggganz]

The fact that I have to do 73 1/2 more hours of community service.

the fact that its 10 pm and i havent eaten dinner, and it doesnt look like a likely prospect either.

 

[Shylock]

It might rain upon the (outdoor) Winter Formal dance I'm going to on Saturday.

This is California, it doesn't rain here. I love the rain, but could it happen some other time?

 

[Nylan]

I hate having a Wii with no decent games. It's torture. Give me Harry Potter, Super Mario Galaxy, SSB, Star Wars, SOMETHING. I can't live off Wii Sports and Rayman forever.

Either that or Get me a PS3 and Rock Band. Honestly, my PS2 is still the most used console in the house.

 

[jeps]

rock band is amazing!

my rant: I have no consoles it works with. Only Wii.

other rant: hanukkah starts tomorrow night. that means I need to go buy presents for people tomorrow.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl comes out, and any life I have outside of video games ends.

I've never used Vista before, and since I got my new laptop I hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it.

 

[Elrohir]

I've never used Vista before, and since I got my new laptop I hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it.

Doesn't it suck? I have it on my new laptop too, and I wish I'd just gotten XP.

I really wasn't sure that Microsoft could screw its customers even more than it had before. Apparently I underestimated them, because Vista really takes the cake.

You had the option of XP?

 

[Integral]

You have Vista, Godwynn? I'm deeply sorry.


Anyway, I just had really, really crappy day to round out a particularly crappy weekend.
