Random Rants LIII: F My Life

[Peck of Arabia]

I'm quite liking this new thread title and such, it's simple and to the point with no ideas above it's station.

Raves Thread is the other way!

So I'm on a dating site, have been for a few weeks, w/ profile and everything. I sent a nice and polite message. She immediately deletes her account. BS way to reject me; imo. Burns like hell though.

So anyway; I knew there was reason to be <redacted> skeptical. Those damned dating site ads, online and on TV are lies, I tell ye! LIES!!!

Not that I am an expert, but you're probably going to have to get used to it. The odds on, say, OkCupid aren't good. It takes 18 messages sent (as a guy) for a 50% chance of a reply. You're going to have to message over 50 people to put yourself into the "almost impossible to not have gotten at least one reply yet" camp.

I also think dating sites really showcase the worst in people, and allow people to be way to picky/choosy, but obviously some people have success on them; you just have to stick with it. Good luck on any future attempts.

As for my rant; I'm 25 years old and I've been having regular nightmares as far back as I remember. I really hoped I would have grown out of them by now, but apparently not.

I don't remember the good ones. They probably happen. But I wouldn't know. They might all be bad and I only remember some. Either way, dreams are not a comfort. So, erm, I guess, you aren't alone?

There was a blister or a boil or a pimple or something on my toe and it popped, and now it's all infected.

Why do printers give me so much trouble?????

I can totally relate. All of our equipment is donated to us... for cause.

Why do printers search engines give me so much trouble?????

Fixed, to apply to me.

Rant: I've been googling high and <redacted> low for a specific episode of the SMBC webcomic, but once again.... GOD DAMN GOOGLE IS <redacted> FAILING ME!!!! WHY DO YOU THINK I COMPLAIN SO <redacted> MUCH ABOUT SEARCH ENGINES BEING <redacted> USELESS, YOU GUYS?!?!?!



Jesus Christ; OT. You guys never listen. When CivG complained about that one job, he was correct right from the beginning; but you forced him to apply anyway, and he still got rejected. Similar with me vs search engines.

If we complain about something, we know from experience exactly how they (will) turn out, and we have empirical evidence to back us the <redacted> up, so you really need to stop insulting our intelligence and experience.

So, tl;dr, PAY <redacted> ATTENTION TO OUR COMPLAINTS, DAMMIT!

Rants threads have always had more comedy value than Raves threads.

Can't tell if serious.

Idgaf.

Can't tell if serious.

I am being serious.

I'm here to vent. That's what this thread is for; I'm just using it for what it is intended for. Ranting. If you have a problem with that, the ignore list is not that hard to use, people.

 

[GamezRule]

It's not that you rant, it's just that you only ever rant about things that seem so menial and honestly not even worth getting worked up about.

Probably because you aren't using Google properly.

"I will be in contact with you by Monday, March 17, 2014"

I'm not much of a betting man, but who wants to bet on whether I hear back before friday march 21 or after friday march 21 (I will lump the "never hear back" with the "after" category)

for about 5 years straight march 14-17th have been the worst days of the year for me.

oh yeah baby, just 1 more day left!

going to make this bet a real tight one!

(to be fair, they did send out an email on tuesday that they were behind).

I've just realized some of the CFC posters are my brother's age (18) and younger.

Makes me feel just a little bit older.
