It's time for the first ever FRIDAY AFTERNOON SIX LINE RANT
:rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:

I don't care what the topic is, just post your rant right here right now. Get it all of your chest no matter how silly it seems - go ahead and rant about it. The only rule - no more than six lines for your rant!

Here's my Friday Afternoon Rant:


Stop blowing on the damn horn as soon as the light turns green. I do not have instaneous reactions when traffic lights switch from red to green, if anything, the way they drive in Delaware I'd rather wait just a few more seconds to make sure that car coming the other direction isn't trying to squeeze in just one more left hand turn under the light on his/her direction. Surely, you aren't going to get to wherever you're going any sooner just because it might take me FIVE seconds after the light changes for me to hit the gas on my car

1. Don't ask me if you can rewrite your paper!
When it takes me more time to read your paper than it took you to write it, you earned your F!

2. You pretend your sh** doesn't stink
You complain and whine and insult someone who "insulted" you because of something they said.
Then turn around and insult someone else over something just as bad
and never, ever get a clue that you are doing the exact same thing that you were just livid over yesterday. :eyes: :shrug: :rant: :grr:

3. Here's mine ...
When you are facing me at the intersection and the light turns green, DO NOT get pissed off when I drive straight ahead while you put on your left turn signal and start driving. If you can't inform me about that you want to turn left, FUCK OFF!

4. Damn office politics.
What is wrong with people in office situations? Is it so boring that they have to start trouble just so they have something to take their mind off their work and their own dreadfully boring lives? We all have to be here. Maybe none of us like it, but we have to earn a living. So, can't we all just PRETEND to get along? Or at least not consciously work to create trouble? Please???

5. Mine
Do NOT take ten minutes to read the menu at the McDonalds Drive Thru, order for ten people, then keep sending your food and drinks back when you are at the pickup window. If you're that picky, either eat somewhere else or GO INSIDE.

6. Ok, if you're going to be my dog.......
Edited on Fri Mar-03-06 03:37 PM by WeRQ4U
And you're going to live in MY house during a North Dakota winter, then during the allotted bathroom times with your tiny, 5lb sister/dog, GO TO THE FUCKING BATHROOM! Dammit, I hate it when I let you out in the morning and even though you KNOW that it's bathroom time, and that your poor sister/dog and I are freezing our ASSES off while you dick around in the yard...you refuse to do anything productive. Plus, when we go inside you stand there looking at me like you want a treat, even though you don't deserve anything...like you're some Starbucks barista and her bullshit tip jar. Then, to top it off, right when I want to head off to work, you scratch at the door because NOW you've realized that you really DO have to take a shit. Yeah, don't fuckin' do that.

7. heres mine:
I dont care if two of my kids arent your biological grandkids. Dont come to my house and ignore them, stop ignoring your own 6 mo old biological son too. Stop making stupid ass excuses like I wont let you get close to him or you have had a head cold the past 6 months either. You expect all of us to treat your grandson like hes ours, do me a favor and return the same to my kids as well. I am not stopping you from getting to know my kids or else I wouldnt bitch about it. These kids didnt do a damn thing to you so get over yourselves.

10. I'm so pissed
I had lived for all of my adult life without a credit card and often was a cash only clown.
In September I finally caved and got a debit card with no fees providing I bought something online once a month. So I got a bunch of cool T shirts for my kid. Last month I got a promotional deal from a friend which I normally wouldn't have fallen for but I bought something for $3.95 and was charged $110.00. Now with overdraft charges and extraneous and purposeless phone calls to Canada, it'll probably run me over $300.00. Back to being a cash only clown. Sorry that's slightly over 6 lines.

11. Okay.
:rant: When I've been successfully doing the same seasonal project for the last fourteen fucking years, DON'T tell me that we need to "tweak" it, especially when your motherfucking "tweaking" is going to cost me not only a weekend of work, but several evenings as well, especially when I have to work all goddamn day too. And when your fucking "tweaking" doesn't work out, guess who's going to have to eat the shit sandwich over it? That's right - ME! Just because we *might* make another 500 fucking dollars. Jesus Christ, I'll GIVE YOU the 500 fucking dollars if it means that much to you. For christ fucking sake. :rant:

12. You're not going to believe this.
But I don't have a rant today.

Can I just have a hug instead of ranting?

15. You mean I have to pay for those things you rang up on the cash register?
This burns my biscuits more than anything. You are standing in line at the store while the person in front of you has their purchases rung up. Everything is scanned, the purchases are being bagged. The clerk announces the total.

Slowly the person reaches into their purse, pocket and takes out their wallet. They then fumble around looking for their credit or debit card.....Or they may want to write a check. Out comes the checkbook, the date is entered, then the name of the store, the amount and then the signature. And of course, they were so busy filling out the check that they have completely forgotten what the total is and have to be told again.

Do these people actually think their purchase were going to be free? They always look a bit surprised that they actually have to pay for their selections.

Come on people get your card card out while you are waiting for the stuff to be rung up. Run it thru the debit/credit machine while the stuff is passing before you. Want to write a check? How about this? Fill in the date, store name, signature on your check and when the total is known, by golly, you can write it in then.

sorry I went over the six lines............

17. You asked for it
Get out of my goddamn way when I'm driving. You don't like driving fast, that's fine, I swear. Just fine. So get the fuck into the right lane, or move aside so I can go. You are not teaching me a lesson by driving slow; you are pissing me off and you are making me hate slow drivers like you even more. Move or get the fuck out of the way. Also, you slow drivers are always ones for "safety", so here's a tip - turn signals. It's not going to be any fucking safer going 20 mph if you don't tell the rest of the world where you plan to put your 3,500-lb vehicle. And can we also get rid of bumper stickers? They are distracting. or let's make a rule - text must be at least 120 point size if it's going to print on a bumper sticker.

19. You asked for it too
Get the hell off my ass!! Not my problem you left 10 minutes ago for your appointment in 5 minutes that's 30minutes away. Yeah, I can read the Speed Limit sign and I'm still doing 5 over - so what. Riding up my ass with your car isn't going to appeal to me to drive any faster. Hell, if we're in two lanes I'm going to side right up next to that car driving slow in the left hand lane and block your sorry ass so you can't get anywhere.

:rant:

Doesn't it feel good to get this off your chest :loveya:

20. Here's mine:
Should the puppy go back to where we got him from?
Should he go to the pound?
Should he go to Antarctica?
Or should we eat him for dinner?
Whatever the case, I don't EVER want him to destroy one of my plants again.
EVER. :grr:

24. Waitpersons
Don't ask if I'm done WORKING on that. It's not a fucking job, it's my meal. And if the utensil is in my hand then NO, I'm not done with that, Stop fucking rushing me. And learn to address people by some other term than GUYS. I'm out with my wife not Spanky and our gang. OK, GUY? And don't drop off my food on the way busing some plates. I would like my meal to appear appetizing.
