I'm also bummed that big cities are so expensive and I'll never make enough to live in one.

Don't worry, nobody lives in cities anymore. They're too crowded.

It's quite easy if you lower your standards enough.

The lack of a unique title is the unike title
woah dude

Rant: God, how did I misspell "unique" in a sentence where I spelled "unique" correctly?

 

[madviking]

this rant thread sucks butt

Rant: I really am sick of the mainstream media. I've been seeing this story about the WHO warning people about meat everywhere so I looked into it and it's seriously nothing. They found an 18% increase in colorectal cancer, which is already rare, according to the CDC less than 50 people per 100,000 in the US, which means that even with meat consumption it goes up to... 59 people per 100,000. That's basically nothing in a statistical sense, and yet so many websites are hyping this up like it's the next great health crisis. **** the media, I was able to find this out in 5 minutes using Google and the CDC's easy to read graphs and information, is there no such thing as basic research among journalists anymore?

Facts don't real, only web traffic.

I was a bit disappointed with the BBC on how they reported it. After reading the article I realized it was the WHO saying "Scientists have proof that bears crap in woods". We already knew that large amounts of processed food isn't good for you, and large amounts of red meat isn't particularly grand for you either.


On other news: In return to form, the first few pages of a rants thread consists of how bad the rants thread OP is.

 

[cardgame]

In this case, however, the rants are sincere and the thread is legitimately terrible.

 

[JohannaK]

Agreed. This thread is just too vanilla!

If you liked it it wouldn't be a rants thread

Today a woman in a car behind me was leaning on her horn for me to move when I was sitting at a red light. We moved up to the next intersection, another red light, and she did it again. The she passed me and gave me the most evil look.

 

[Wolfbeckett]

Obeying traffic laws, you MONSTER.

 

[BvBPL]

The RPG I kickstarted finally came last week, two years latter than promised, and it isn't very good. What's more, the fan monkeys at their website refuse to acknowledge its flaws.

Kudos, sir.

This thread is still bad though.

 

[Takhisis]

There you is.

Now. Be careful you don't run while holding them. That's a dangerous practice, as you must surely know.

That looks suspiciously similar to the scisors I used in the election yesterday. Have you been following me?

Agreed. This thread is just too vanilla!

Yet another problem that can be solved by eating chocolate.

If you liked it it wouldn't be a rants thread

Or we could be angry at liking something we shouldn't.

 

[azzaman333]

I'm sad that the old thread is dead.

Also that people hate on glasses. You haven't met the right ones for you yet.

Purely from a aesthetic point of view, Joan speaks the truth. The right glasses can look better than no glasses.

 

[choxorn]

Your thread is bad and you should feel bad!

 

[cybrxkhan]

Boooooo new rants thread with no title boooooo booooooo boooooo

[gay_Aleks]

This thread also lacks Fallout.
