Post your rant here

People who think the freeway is a damn NASCAR race and assume that drafting you will get them there faster or get you to move out of their way. Hint: Don't do it to me... I just take my foot off the gas until you back the F**K up!



Even more to the point: don't tailgate me because you WILL get brake tested. According to dutch legislation, if I slam the brakes and you hit me from behind, it's YOUR fault because you didn't keep sufficient distance to be able to stop before hitting me.

I drive at any certain speed for a reason. It could be the weather, it could be traffic density, it could be the presence of cameras. Whatever. Just DON'T tailgate me. You'll be very very sorry.

Suicidal college walkers!!!! They dart into the cross walks without looking for oncoming cars. They wait till they walk almost past the cross walk and then do a juke move worthy of a NFL running, and jump in front of your car!!! I don't want to hit you, so why don't you give some hints that you want to cross the street. Maybe some eyecontact, or even a pause before you try to dive under my rear tires!!!!! :o

People who don't realize that they occupy space in the universe, and based on this fact they are indeed able to get in other peoples ways.

This pertains to people that refuse to stay right except to pass on the highway!!! Just because you are doing 65 doesn't mean you should park in the left lane. It is rude and inconsiderate. Pass on the left, then move over to the right.

People who stop infront of door ways or entrances. Some common sense please, if you are infront of a doorway other people can't get in or get out.

People who will stop in the middle of the hallway of a building and strike up a conversation. Hallways are for walking, just move to the side so you don't hold up the people who are just trying to walk.

Ok I am done. :D

Rant away... That's what this thread is all about... ;):D:D

just so I'm able to keep this on topic:

I just spent 30 minutes on hold with DirecTV for them to blame the problem I'm having on the local channel broadcasters and (i.e. effectively washing their hands of the problem that I'm having and only started having 2 weeks ago... :S)

When you post something to get it off your chest, and some smartass says something to the fact of "Suck it up" or regards it as whining.

I'm not posting to ask for sympathy, it's to vent, dumbass.

So it's ok for you to vent but not for them to vent back at you:ph34r::ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

What drives me crazy?

1. People who think it's OK to dump their ashtray in the street in front of our house while waiting for their little yard apes to get out of school.

2. People who think it's OK to go through a redlight if they are three cars back when the light turns red. Asshats.

3. People who don't watch out for motorcycles while driving. Luckily, I can out accelerate most of them, and I ride like my life depends on MY paying attention...it does.

4. People who care more about Brittney, Lindsay, Paris, and the rest of Hollywood, than what's going on in their family, town, state, country, world. Oh, and throw in any rap and hiphop "artist" with that group too.

5. That there's still people in the USA without even basic health/dental insurance.

6. Schools / teachers are easy targets for budget cuts.

7. The price of diesel fuel is about the same as premium gas... still waiting on a good answer why this is so.

8. Rolling Rock brewery is no more. I can handle (somewhat) that they were bought out by Anheiser Busch, but did A-B really have to move the brewery out of Latrobe? And every time I see "Rolling Rock Brewery, St. Louis, MO" on those painted lables, I can taste the bile in my mouth. I'm down to my last case. Bummer.

9. One hit wonder bands. And boy bands. And girl bands. Anything you'd hear Casey Casem talk about, or whoever is doing the show now. It's probably Ryan Seacrest (see #14 below).

10. People who drive like they are the only ones on the road. Even worse is seeing said people driving like idiots with (usually unbelted/unseated) kids in the car.

11. "anything" - American. African American, Italian American, that kind of stuff.

12. Professional athletes who are considered role models.

13. Plastic surgery for anyone with a non-medical conditions.

14. Ryan Seacrest. He may be worth bank, but I'd rather chew my own leg off than watch him on the color horror box.

15. Reality TV. Can we please move past this genre and bring back some creative programming? Like Married With Children, Soap, or Buffy??? "This Old House" can stay, however.

16. Genetically modified foods. And cloning anything, except maybe if doctors could create organs for transplant. Even that is a little creepy.

17. Hunting shows on TV. I really don't need to watch animals being killed on TV. I don't mind hunting, used to go myself, but I just don't need to see it while flipping through the channels.

18. Parents that don't parent.

19. People in general. If you're here, you're probably OK.

20. Lawyers. I don't have Mesothelioma, and I certainly don't need James Sokolove's help with anything. Lawrocket is OK though.

OK, that's a good start. Thank you, I feel better now.

No one is available on MSN so I can bug them!

Dammit, I have no friends!

And searching through DSPAM takes AGES, as it's so full.

Why do I always have to be a nice girl and be on the receiving side of spam? I mean, imagine the amounts of money I could make selling fake viagra on the internet...

And I hate winter and snow and being wrapped in ten layers of clothing. I want freedom of movement.
Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet.

I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you?

Try IRC instead. Lots of people to be bugged.

Agreed on the spam issue.

I mean... stock trade, Viagra, penis enlargements, breast enlargements, fake Rolexes, crappy software... What's the bl**ding point??? Hell, I even get spam in languages I hardly (if at all) understand. Spamming should be punishable by death as far as I'm concerned. Execution on TV, live, all channels. I have many pet peeves but there's probably nothing that aggrevates me more than those bl***y spammers.

As Worf would put it: "Definately feeling agressive tendencies now, sir!"

I don't want to make all the decisions because if I screw up, then I can't blame it on you...

Well I can hate winter even if I'm norwegian.

Aaaargh!

>:(

Oh, and one more thing:

Debate programs on TV:

discussing questions such as "Why do Norway, the world's richest country, have so poor roads", "Should we let in more immigrants?", It's always the same questions over and over again. and the arguments are always so shallow and simplified. It's so stupid, and everyone seems to think that debates on telly such as these are important. One of the most stupid was a debate about what word was to be used about black people in Norway, and the really stupid thing about that debate was that one of the persons who really felt discriminated because of the old word, wasn't even black.

I hate those programs, and hate the channels that use valuable time broadcasting them...

aaargh.

Great to get that off my chest.

Come to think of it... We haven't really had winter here in Holland for years but I do remember hating it. So hate winter all you like. Forget I said anything.

Heh. We have those kind of programs here too. Some of them are actually pretty good, but others are... well... what you said.

Bad debate programs on TV should definately go into Room 101.

Another annoyance: people advertising food as being "hot" or "spicy" when it really isn't. Such a bummer...
