Random Rants

[Masquerouge]

Why is it that shops do not have pants my size? What is so extraordinary about being tall and slim that makes shops not provide my freakin'pant size? Why do these shops assume that if you're really tall you must be really fat too? Why on Earth are there no W34 when the L is 36?!?! W36L36, suuuuuure. Tons of them. W38L36? A whole aisle is dedicated to them! And don't even get me started on those W40L36 ENTIRE SHOPS.
But should you have the ill fortune of not being fat, then if you're tall you're pretty much screwed. W34L36 fits me perfectly. I look awesome in W34L36 pants. But the last pair I bought was like 5 years ago, because apparently the clothing industry has decided that when you're tall, you're fat.
Apparently these morons think that small people are like this:
|-|
and tall people are like this:
|-----|
|-----|
Never would it occur to these simpletons that as you grow up you don't necessarily widen up, and thus you can end like this:
|-|
|-|
Nooooo apparently to these puny brains the process of growing up is more akin to someone blowing you up like a balloon. Well I'm sorry they missed high school and half a brain, but when people eat what they're supposed to they do not get fat.
And you know what annoys me the most in this story? The fact that there are PLENTY of L36 pants. So it's not as if there was a case of not enough tall people so making L36 pants was not worth it. Noooo. It's just that apparently in the US all tall people are fat. Or they're trying to get back at tall and slim people. I don't know. Or they hide the pants when they see me coming from afar.

Well, can you find W34L36 pants in France or you have to let the shop to fix the for you? Do you have to do the same in the US? Are you pantless now?

(Don't answer to the last one)

Yes, you can. They're not that common but mostly because L36 pants are not that common - it's not because you only have pants for fat people.

I use the same size as you Masquerouge, and got exactly the same problem

Oh, the rant: I'm so tired of people starting sentences without capital letter! (Here on the forum, that is)

My science teacher:



Aggravating.

She gives us homework DAILY (I was never used to it), regardless of what load the others give you.

There is no such thing as a private conversation in the classroom.

She doesn't crouch down and just whisper, "Why *insert question here*?"

She just uses her teaching voice.

This happened to me.

Guess who all of the eyes in the room were pointing at.

Yep, that's right. Me. Worst part, she has a little list in her head of favorite students and least.

I'm on the least.

Being on the least brings more negative attention to you.

She also frequently uses surfer-talk.

Her lesson plan is repetitive, same thing each day.

Also, we were promised many experiments.

We've only had 4 experiments. It's the 4th quarter.

Also, she promised a baking soda volcano experiment. That promise was empty. She said that it was too childish and that we're at our grade level.

So hypocritical. She assigns us art projects, like color, cut, and paste. That is only art.

Also, I was given my first C in my life in the 1st quarter. Why?

A MISTAKE!

She said that I was missing 6 assignments. I really had 2 of them in, graded, at my house, and mine.

Because of that, I had a C, my DS taken away for a month, and my mom call me the family disgrace.

And now, people are saying that she deliberately did it.

There were only 5 people on the High Honors for our classes for 1st and/or 2nd quarters.

1 was on for both. Basically, it is incredibly hard to get an A in her class.

She makes us do the same To Dos for weeks on end, and sometimes makes questions on worksheets that are re-worded, but basically the same question.

All answers are the same.

I hate how you are better than me at everything.

i can only assume this isnt directed at me...?

xD It isn't. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you think it was you.

Why hate? Learn from the master! Hate only leads to suffering

No it ultimately leads to the dark side...

i didnt really.
is it about an anonymous sibling, or relative?
i would imagine having an over-achiever around is annoying, but since most people in my family are very mediocre i dont really know.

 

[Elona Del]

I am new to the forum and thought i would post a hello.....

HELLO ^_^

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

Sigh... right now I am thinking about the things I should be doing but am not. Because of this, I will later be cursing myself for doing a whole lot of nothing instead of the things that I should be doing, all the while coming up with new reasons to continue to do nothing towards the things I should be doing, and trying to convince myself that I need to be doing those things that I am doing nothing towards.

Suprisingly it isn't.
It's about my boyfriend.

Here is the official thread for such introductions. Welcome!

He probably doesn't mean to make things seem your fault, especially if he cares about you. Odds are that's the last thing on his mind. In fact it's probably the opposite.

Odds are a lot of those things seem to be true, but in reality are not quite as "perfect" or true as you'd think.

Regardless...it all depends on one thing

How much do you care about him?

 

[Prince_Imrahil]

How come I never get happy endings?

 

[Firstlady]

Always wrong.

 

[Prince_Imrahil]

Whats always wrong? how was I wrong? I know its a rant thread but hey, throw me a bone.

Don't be like a certain poster now basking in self-pity ...
