Random Rants XLIII: So Much Whinging Your Head May Explode

[shadowplay]

UTTER UTTER UTTER *********.

Afternoon. There's a call on the answering machine. My grandmother says she's stuck with their car in the snow at [unprecise description which includes probably 200 km²].
Call back. It's one of the restaurants in the hills. My grandmother is already gone, probably back to their car. Okay, WTH. Get to the car with the whole family, tow rope for the car, some other equipment.
Drive to the restaurant. First street closed, due to snowbanks. Okay, other way. Get to the restaurant. Nobody there. Checking in one direction, nobody to be seen, other direction, nobody to be seen. Other streets are all closed due to snowbanks. Checked at another restaurant, forth and back, nobody has seen her.
Calling my uncle, he doesn't know anything. Calling my 17 years old niece, she's with my grandmother...but no electricity on her mobile phone...great.
We're back at home, because there's no place left to check. Nothing new on the answering machine.
2 hours over. It's totally dark, -10°C, half of the streets in the hills are closed due to snowbanks. My grandmother takes strong pain killers, she should not even be driving.
We decide to call the police, so that they can start a search. Geolocation of the telephone is obviously not possible, because it's turned off. Search area? No real idea.

Half an hour later we get a call. My grandmother is at home. Her car was stuck a few meters in one of the closed streets. After she called us she asked some guys from the ski lift to pull her out of the snow with one of their machines.
End of the story.

Don't you love winter?

I caught a really bad stomach bug thing and spent the majority of a day and a half either vomiting or trying to make it to the toilet in time.

Suggestion: Sleep in the bathroom or put a toilet in your bedroom. Either way win-win. It always angers me how I have to get up and walk down the hall to use the bathroom when I'm having a grand old time studying contracts. Imagine how much time you would save if you could crap where you sat.

Nothing's stopping you from doing that.

I feel like my landlady might object.

I had a garbage can in my room to throw up in. Didnt work so well for what was coming out the other end which

Spoiler may be gross :

tended to splatter all over the place

Parents are not letting me ski this year. Well eff them

It's you who doesn't come off well in that quote, not your parents.

 

[ZeletDude]

I don't even care. A few weeks ago they said they would let me ski, but not buy a full season's pass, now they wont even buy me day's passes.

 

[ace99]

Buy it yourself.

Poor old you!

Was it something you ate?

No its a germ because a bunch of people in the town have it says the doctor.

 

[Borachio]

Can be nasty.

What, in the garbage can in your room or in the toilet?

 

[ZeletDude]

Buy it yourself.

This is terrible advice

 

[Borachio]

That leaves theft or forgery, I think. Or some kind of blagging your way onto the piste.

 

[Zack]

Well eff them

If you say so... *starts removing pants*

Are you very ugly? That never helps, imo.

Thanks .
On the site the images are first only available in a blurred way, and you have to give your permission to make them completely visible.

Ugly? I have honestly no idea (no, not going to show the images here).
I'm not exactly slim, that might be a bigger problem.
I'd consider that to be a source of the problem, if anyone of the girls had actually read my profile.

*sigh*.

Don't you love winter?

Totally.
Only thing which is even better is to be stuck yourself somewhere, or being in a life-endangering situation due to that damn white crap (had at least 2).

Related: Due to that goddamn incident I was not able to pack my stuff into the car.
And I move on Monday. Means I have to do that tomorrow. Great .

I suppose you've already been at the doctor, yes?

Sorry. I was only joking. I have no idea what happens with internet dating sites. I have, very briefly, considered that sort of thing. I don't think it would work well for me. I've not heard that people have great success with them.

But in any case one week isn't a long time, I would guess. How many inquiries did you try making yourself? Or doesn't it work that way?

If Im throwing up out of my mouth, guess what I mean by "the other end"
