The Bummer and Rant Thread

[Mycernius]

My rant for the day. (Sounds like a school writting assignment, oh well)
I drive for a living and today the baka have been out in force. The one thing that has really bugged me today are indications. There is a stick by the steering wheel. If you push it up or down it shows other drivers where you are going. It is quite useful to know where someone is about to turn because when you are driving an 18 ton truck I don't stop as quick as a car because some baka has not bothered to use his F?@~#!g indicator :banghead: . All you see are red lights and the car going where you didn't expect him/her to go. 'I'm sorry for not being physic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! '. The worst offenders are BMW and Volvo drivers. Are they optional extras on these cars? :kaioken:
That's the rant over I will now go and calm down with a beer or four :sorry:

 

[kirei_na_me]

I HATE it when people doin't use their signals before turning! It's one of my pet peeves! I hate it even more than when people go the speed limit in the passing lane!

 

[DoctorP]

Yeah that is a pain when they don't use the signals...I'll add another peeve! I hate it when I get behind a car with burnt out tail lights or brake lights! For pete's sake every car has built in safety features so that even a ***** can figure out when these lights burn out!

 

[Ma Cherie]

Goodness, I finally have something to rant about. If there is anything I hate most in the world, it's irresponsible behavior. I cannot emphasize that enough. There was a story I heard awhile back about a college student. Lets just say that he decided to moon a couple of friends from his opened window. Well, appearantly he ends up falling out the window and gets injured. Oh, and guess what the student decides to do? He sues the university! For his stupid behavior! I can't believe people sometimes. What the f***k is wrong with people! :banghead:

What makes this so bad is the lawyers who take these cases. Like people who are obese and they decide to blame the fast food industry. Hey! maybe you should have stopped after you had fifteen hamburgers!! Good Lord!

I need a nap.

The film you are talking about is 'Supersize Me'. He did it to show that, despite what Mcdonalds say, it is not healthy to eat there everyday (he did it for 30days). He ate the salads, not just the burgers. His doctor was not a happy bunny when he had a health check.

The whole concept of the movie was incredibly moronic. Nobody in their right mind would eat in any fast food joint like Mickey D's every single day for a month, not even we junk food crazed Americans. What's more, anyone with half a brain already knows that no fast food chain's fare is healthy. If you ask me, the guy's only motivation behind the movie was to get his fifteen minutes of fame by being a hog. What nonsense!

 

[lexico]

Dumb and Dumber ... *rolls laughing mad*

Mikey D was at least eventful ...
This Korean copycat tried to mimic him and quit midway after his doctor pleaded with him;

"Getting back to slim may be possilbe, but GETTING THE FATTY SLIME IN YOUR BLOOD STREAM IS IRREVERSIBLE YOU ***** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I think that's what he said to the not-so-bright copycat. Sorry, nothing personal about plump people. I like them if they have no problem with me. But not on purpose. You are not my friend any more if you do it on purpose ! That's criminal behavior !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But I have seen a number of family's who eat fast food for at least one meal every single day! Chalk it up to laziness! I knew one mom who didn't know how to cook at all...I think the only meal made in that house was cereal for breakfast!

Well, if they're willing to go through life like that, then that's their problem. I'll admit to being lazy myself, but not enough to find myself in some fast food joint every single day. That's ludicrous. As for that mother who didn't know how to cook, did the husband marry her only for her looks or her skill in the bedroom? That's equally as insane!

There are a at least two types. One is good and the other is bad. Personally it sound like medical rubbish to me. If you enjoy your food, enjoy it. Nuts to the health freaks trying to make you feel guilty about eating chocolate. How many people do you know are genuinely happy on a diet?. And what happens when they come off it? They put on weight again, which makes them more miserable, so they go on another diet, more misery. It's an endless circle of masochism. Just eat right and with a bit of gentle excerise and you don't have to go on these stupid diets.

Well I live off of a diet called an "exchange diet". It's the same diet that diabetics live off of. Now I'm not a diabetic, but I do have to do this diet for certain reasons I'm not going to get into. The diet is built for exercise, good cholesterol, good fat, healthy eating, etc. You know what cracks me up? People who drink Diet Pepsi, eat Snackwell cookies, and any other low fat/suger item by the truck load thinking that it's healthy for them. Every time I see a person do something like that I want to take a big stick and hit them, and say, "No." Then I would take their face like it was a dog, and rub it up against the boxes like they were smells **** or something.

Well said, Mycernius! I couldn't agree more !

I've always believed that your body tells you everything ... just listen to it !

If you don't feel like lunch ? - forget it. If you want a steak at 2 a.m. ? - get up and cook one !

I've lived like this all my life, virtually never been to a hospital, and, at 61 ... still weigh 130 pounds ! (The most I've ever weighed was 140, in 1971...!)

I like fried food, spicy food, peppers, salt, butter, chocolate, coffee and rich cream, beer, cognac, red wine, wite wine .... etc. etc. etc......

.... Am I just lucky ?

Waow. *decides she'll take Sensuikan San's advice on how to live from now on*

I'm sad.

I feel like crap.

Why is that, Doc? Come and share.

It's kind of too personal to talk about.

[Ma Cherie]

Alright, Doc my dear. *kisses him on the forehead*.

 

[Doc]

Thanks. I feel a little better now, but I'm still in a negative funk from earlier today. I was going to post my problem, but it was just something that people shouldn't read. So instead I just made the post that I did to get some sadness out. Thanks again though.

[phantasmagoria]

Poor Doc! *big squishy hug* whatever it is, I hope it gets better (it will eventually, everything does in some way)

Today I woke up to from my alarm like I always do. However, something seemed amiss to me today. Now for the past week I've noticed something odd about the radio station that I set my alarm to. The content on the station seemed different. It wasn't until today that I found out that my favorite jazz station WSSM 106.5 St. Louis Smooth Jazz Station is no more.

Instead of smooth and easy jazz I have 70's, 80's, and 90's music instead! Now I love 80's music, I won't deny that. It's my favorite era to listen to. However, it is NOT the kind of music I want to wake up to in the morning. However, not all is lost. The station is still around, but now as an online (web) radio station. Now if I could just get DSL everything would be alright.

Doc

 

[Ma Cherie]

Oh, Doc I'm sorry to hear that. I know how it feels when favorite radio station changes it's music. Something similar happened, one day I was listening to smooth jazz the next day, I was listnening to country. There's no longer 106.5 smooth jazz in Kansas City. It's now country.

I object to the current idea of pandering to the minority. I'm not talking about religious or politics here (Everyone breathes sighs of relief), but the minority that whine and complain about what is shown on television. The reason for this is tthere is currently on UK comercial TV an advert for a oven cleaner. It feature a british chef called Ainsley Harriot. He cleans his oven hob and then kisses the clean work surface. Two, TWO! people complained out of the millions that ahve seen this advert that young children might copy him and kiss a hob that could still be hot. The advert has been going for about three months, no children have kissed a hob yet. Because of these 'GET A LIFE SADDOS' the advert now has to be shown at a time when young children will be in bed so they won't get ideas. How can two people have this much power? There was a time when common sense prevailed in this country now it's a case of Can't do this, can't do that because a minority have complained about it. It is driving me nuts.
