well it IS a little weird you didnt know there was a v-tech lol. i actually know a guy who goes there, but hes ok thank god
girltrouble i agree COMPLETELY (again it seems!) i was saying that to my father. like, 160 people died in ONE day in iraq yesterday. this is a part of peoples lives every day (and not just in iraq). what makes us think we are so special that the entire world should mourn for months about 30 people who died on our soil? clearly, its a tragedy, i am in no way saying its not, BUT nevertheless its still messed up that we make a federal case over something that is an every day occurence everywhere else. so annoying. PS your analogies, both here and in the porn thread are spot on. -------------------- “There's something about the Irish that is remarkable.”-François de la Rochefoucauld

True. It's sad, but I hate the media circus when stuff like this happens, and I didn't know anybody there or didn't even know there was a Virginia Tech.

quite frankly, i am sick of americans. yes, what happened in virginia was awful, and if you are on that campus, or know or are related to some involved, my condolences, but WTF? an entire nation is going to mourn for 30 people dying? are you kidding me? every week in iraq 3 times that many people die in a smaller country with a much smaller population. are iraqi deaths any less terrible? any less scary? are their lives worth any less? daily people are killed thanks to us. good work uncle sam. we have to realize we have no concept of the damage we do world wide. this is like the guy who demands to be seen first at a hospital because he has a papercut, while the guy sitting there all day lost an arm. -------------------- "what a swell farewell party! we said goodbye to everything, including the lining in my stomach." - garvey, from the film, born bad "That's one career all females have in common, whether we like it or not: being a woman.

I *totally* understand that, LMP.
It's the same with mine. Oh, he'll do all this work around the house that should be done in the summer, but asking him to do laundry is like asking him to walk into hell wearing a parka. I'm the only one in this house that does laundry! While yes, I am thankful that more "manly" things get done around here (cause I don't squat about fixing/building anything), sometimes it would be reallllllllllly nice just to not have to wash all his stankin' clothes! Especially when he owns more than I do! Good luck with Mr. Pugs! Maybe he'll surprise you! -------------------- "Humans are the only animals that have children on purpose - with the exception of guppies, who like to eat theirs."

I'm going to punch Mr. Pug in the neck if he doesn't TAKE THE FUCKING TRASH OUT! Also, I asked him to do a load of white clothes four days ago. I'm wearing his socks now and I'm a size 8 and he's an 11. Well, when he runs out of socks and comes asking me I'll just shrug my shoulders and look stupid like him when I ask him to take the trash out.
FUCK, FUCK FUCK FUCK!?!?!?!? |

Haha, it gets the point across quite well, I believe!
How angry/annoyed does one have to be to punch someone in the neck? I would think VERY. And that's how annoying I SEEN is! It even sounds stupid! Say it out loud, honestly! I SEEN. Pfft! *Takes deep calming breaths* -------------------- "Humans are the only animals that have children on purpose - with the exception of guppies, who like to eat theirs."

Oh, I have so many of these!
Okay, so I don't drive. I'm 22 and I've never learned how to drive a car. While all my high school friends were zipping around in Mommy's and Daddy's cars/SUVs/trucks/etc., I was using the legs the good lord gave me. BUT! That doesn't mean I don't FUCKING HATE IT when people don't park properly! I seriously lose my shit when I see a bad parking job. Seriously, you can't take another half-a-minute to straighten out a bit?! I've seen some people even park horizontally across two vertical parking spots to "run into a store" and then take a good half hour or so. I'm going to be getting my license soon because I live out in the middle of nowhere and it's pretty much needed and I fully intend to start leaving horrible parkers notes on their windshields. I also really hate it when I talk about not wanting to physically have children (I want to adopt eventually; probably in ten years or more when I'm finished being overloaded with student loan debt) and women my Mom's age (50+) are all "Oh, Dear, you'll change your mind! You're still young!" and NO, I won't. I've thought this way since *I* was born! I hate how they are pretty much implying that if I don't have children of my own I won't be considered a successful woman. Oh AND (last one for now): I live on the east coast of Canada and it is so common and frustrating for people to say "I SEEN" instead of "I SAW" or "I'VE SEEN". It makes me want to punch someone in the neck when I hear it. It's so grammatically incorrect! (Not that I have perfect grammar, obviously, but ugh!) There are more, I just can't think of them right now. And I don't want to come off as whiny.  -------------------- "Humans are the only animals that have children on purpose - with the exception of guppies, who like to eat theirs."

I came home today and the trash was taken out.
Usually me saying , " No, no, I'll take the trash out" works Growing up my mother would leave us notes for every little thing she wanted us to do and it always annoyed the shit out of me. I work with women who make "Honey Do" lists for their husbands. I absolutely refuse. Hubby is a grown up and if he can't figure out that the dishes need to be done, or the trash needs to be taken out, then it will sit there till I do it. I am not leaving a grown as man a list of chores to do. |

QUOTE(dusty @ Apr 5 2007, 03:43 PM)  Ha! Websites that ask you where you heard about them when you order stuff, and its a mandatory field in their order form. Uh, fine the first time, but after I've ordered from you 50 times: I don't remember and I'm just skewing your statistics. My library's requires that I log in EVERY TIME I GO TO ANOTHER PAGE. Someone needs a course in website usability. Along the same lines, sites with huge photos that take years to load and blogs that keep 40+ posts on the front page (usually with huge graphics).

People who feel the need to tell everyone how special, hip, smart they are and do it while maintaining a certain charm that you don't even realize you been debased as a classless, clueless moron.

Glenn Beck's radio show used to have its moments, but he has long since gone completely insane and his show reflects this fact.
Don Imus: He and his staff regularly referred to black people as "monkeys" among themselves. Nuff said. |

oh, that dude? he's just a moron. i was curious because cnn was marketing him as a pragmatist "i don't care if it's democrat or republican, does it make sense?"-- yeah, like he'd know what makes sense....talk about a wingnut... -------------------- "what a swell farewell party! we said goodbye to everything, including the lining in my stomach." - garvey, from the film, born bad "That's one career all females have in common, whether we like it or not: being a woman.

QUOTE(girltrouble @ Apr 11 2007, 11:32 PM) i have had a gut full of all these media talkinghead's stupid "don imus is a good man," mantra... say what you like about kramer, but he only had one racist episode. imus has a long history of racist, homophobic, misogynistic comments. he knows to walk up to the line and not cross it, but let's not bullshit, that doesn't make him a "good man," only a slighly smarter, well paid biggoted fuckstain with a lot of high rent friends sticking up for him. Word! Now if they could just get rid of Glenn fucking Beck... -------------------- |
