Random Rants

[Kan' Sharuminar]

A random rant here:

Using children to get your point across. There's an advert on a local radio station about how you must always make sure your bike is up to scratch and what not. Sound advice, I agree, but it uses a child to get the point across. Advert tells story of how said child is so happy to be let out on her bike for summer before cutting to mother lamenting about how her "baby" is now in hospital because she didn't get the bike fixed and didn't tell her child to wear a safety helmet. "MY BABY!"

Why not just go to the next stage? "Maintain your bikes or you are a CHILD KILLER!"

Alright, I'm done. Rant over.

Umm...

I got a bad grade on my biology test.

So I have to study hard for the extra test I get on Thursday to make up for it.

Did I mention I'm taking my fourth and fifth university courses while still in the second year of high school and 17 years old?

I'm stressed and tired.

Whats the hurry?

What has happened to the "respect your elders and betters"-thing?. When I was 7-12 I paid respect to those people who were older, taller and stronger than me.
Now I'm 17 and, if I may say, quite an athlete. And today, when I was jogging, three kids parked their bikes in my way and said, in a ridiculously high-pitched voice: "Give us money or we wön't move." What the &#%@? Are kids these days deliberately raised up to be irritating morons? The worst thing is that if you give an annoying kid a clip alongside the ear everyone's like. "Oh that poor child! That mean big boy is teasing him! Call the police/psychiatrist/fire department!"

I can't wait to see how fubar the world will be when the fruit of Being Politically Correct, this MeMeMeOnlyMe-generation takes over.

Amen to that, I had a the same rant a few pages back, kids are given such free reign these days, they aught to be dragged back to there parents and given a clip round the ear for being so disrespectful.

The word "anywho." It's not anywho! It's "anyhow." People say anywho because they think it's cute, now everyone uses it.

your rushing to be sure, I'm taking courses at the venerable age of 34 and I'm working too, there is just no time to do anything and your life revolves around study and work, my advice, take a break at some point, a year out maybe, get back you need some play time, your young I haven't got the option of taking a year out, I'll be dead soon . Too much work is just an absolute mind ****, I'm doing well on my course but the current block I'm tripping over in a major way and it's not good. So little time and so much left to learn

**** if only I'd of had the chance to do this earlier but the sands of time are slipping away.

You can fail and you can duck out of a course, and you have all the time in the world, what's the worst that can happen, run it thorugh if the worst happens can you not pick yourself up dust yourself off and start all over again? Or are you like me? Probably not.

Excuse the bump. I really wanted a little rant and yelling at people won't help, so I thought of this thread.


Blearg! Yuck! Argh!

Someone has just sat down near me in the computer centre. They absolutely STINK of cigarettes! I can hardly breathe, and will be logging out and leaving as soon as I've finished this post! This stupid windowless room is airless and hateful enough without someone poisoning it like that. They might just as well have sat down and started pooing all over the place for sheer disgustingness. You ... unprintable ... censored! Please don't inflict this sort of thing on other people, even if you enjoy doing it to yourself!

I've got a rant for ya.

I'm in love. This is not some little childish puppy love, this is deep, resounding joy simply because this woman is in my life and cares about me kinda love. This is "I want her to be happy even if it's not with me" love. So what's the problem? She doesn't like me that way. She's my best friend. She knows I love her, I've told her. We've talked about it many times. The problem is, even though I know she doesn't think about me that way, and that we'll most likely never be (and I could marry this girl like that *snaps fingers*), I can't stop loving her. I've tried dating other people, in the hope that I'll find something in them and they'll grow on me, and I'll get over her, and be able to have a best friend whilst not being constantly slapped in the proverbial face. But these girls I date bore me, I'm just not interested in them. There's simply no way that any girl could ever hope to measure up to her [my love]. Trying to figure out what to do gives me a tremendous headache.

You know what pisses me off?

My band is on the radio in Europe, a part of one of the biggest blues societies in the midwest, a routine opener for the hottest act in Columbus...and we can't get a gig at the good bar in my hometown of 5,000 people, because we aren't 21, even though we could fill the entire place...EASY.

Liquor laws are ********.

Word. Lower the goddamn drinking age you prudes!

 

[Masquerouge]

Any company using the term "easy opening" should be sued.
There is no such thing as an easy opening.
Easy openings require a blowtorch, a cutting diamond and a steel rod to be easily opened.
Easy openings are actually designed by frustrated Nazis.

Or at least let people who want to go to a bar and listen to a band without drinking in. A smart bar raises the cover for underage patrons, to pay for that guy who marks your hand if you're underage. Some Ohio localities have laws that go above and beyond the "no drinking until you're 21", that make things hard on us.

 

[skadistic]

Super markets that train new tellers on the express line should be burned down. I stood in line longer then it took me to walk there and back........

 

[Irish Caesar]

Just airports and airlines and snow and buses and subways and lost luggage and traveling being exhausting.

But I suppose now that it's all worked out, and I've slept, I have no reason to rant anymore.

My band is on the radio in Europe...

That's wicked awesome, cheers!

My microcontroller lab is underequipped. What good is paying for a 19" screens if you don't have wires, banana plugs, aligator clips, logic probes, or chip programmers?

I've got the exact same complaint against the local S & M club.

 

[Nylan]

Online classes are freaking ********

thank you, that is all....

 

[Phlegmak]

I must rant about this:

I truly, truly hate, and loathe George W Bush and all of his cronies in the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches.
