THIS IS A SHOUTING THREAD→[More:]GAAAAAAH I'M SO FUCKING PISSED OFF!!!!! I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH LONGER I CAN PUT UP WITH THIS BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!
I'M MAD TOO! I'M MAD BECAUSE YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THAT, WHATEVER IT IS. AND I'M REALLY MAD THAT WE'RE GETTING ANOTHER 6 INCHES OF SNOW TOMORROW. ENOUGH! I'M TIRED OF WINTER. I'M MAD, GOOD AND MAD! !@#@#%$^%&**&%%$!!!!!!
DON'T PUT UP WITH IT, TPS! LET WHATEVER IT IS FALL APART, IF IT DESERVES IT! LET'S TEAR DOWN THOSE PARTS OF OUR LIVES AND COMMUNITIES THAT OUR POISONING US!
IT'S SO FREAKIN' STUPID, I HOPE TOMORROW I WILL HAVE FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT IT (EVEN THOUGH I KNOW IT'S NOT TRUE CONSIDERING THAT IT'S ONGOING AND THE WHOLE THING CAME TO A HEAD ON FRIDAY ANYWAY AND I SPENT THE WHOLE DAY E-MAILNING OR ON CONFERENCE CALLS ABOUT IT).
MY MOTHER NEEDS TO LEARN TO LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE. NO I DON'T WANT YOU TO TOUCH ME. OR BUY ME USELESS UGLY SHIT. IF YOU'RE GOING TO BUY ME ANYTHING, MAKE IT SOMEWHERE THAT I CAN LIVE FAR, FAR AWAY FROM YOU AND YOUR STICK-ASSED SELF.
I WON'T QUIT. I'LL SURVIVE. I GENERALLY LIKE WHAT I DO. I WAS JUST ANNOYED FOR A SHORT TIME (PARTIALLY LEFT OVER FROM FRIDAY, PARTIALLY FROM ONE NEW THING TODAY). I FEEL BETTER ALREADY.
AND I'M GOING TO A FONDUE COOK-OFF TONIGHT! YAHOO!!!
Ooh fondue! I NEED TO DIET BIG TIME TO LOSE THE LARD I'M CARRYING SO I CAN RUN BETTER. ALTHOUGH THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS I SIGNED UP FOR THIS INSANITY, IT'S WAY TOUGHER THAN I WAS EXPECTING.
THIS IS VANCOUVER, WHERE EVERYTHING IS EXPENSIVE, ASIDE FROM THE ISOLATION.
YOU'D THINK THAT WOULDN'T BE THE CASE NOW THAT DOWNTOWN IS MORE DENSELY POPULATED THAN MANHATTAN, BUT YOU'D BE WRONG.
ALSO THE POLICYMAKERS COULD PROBABLY SPEND LESS MONEY ON ENFORCEMENT AND THEREBY LOWER USER COSTS FOR PUBLIC TRANSIT (WHICH WOULD CONCEIVABLY INCREASE RIDERSHIP, OFFSETTING THE REVENUE LOSS FROM LOWER PRICING) BUT THAT WOULD MAKE TOO MUCH SENSE OR SOMETHING.
I MOVED INTO MY NEW ROOM YESTERDAY AND SOON AFTER I SHOWED UP, THE PREVIOUS TENANT CAME BY TO TAKE AWAY THE MATTRESS AND THE BOOKSHELF!! BUT I TOOK THE ROOM BELIEVING IT TO BE FULLY FURNISHED AND WOULDN'T HAVE TAKEN IT OTHERWISE BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO DEAL WITH THE HASSLE OF BUYING NEW FURNITURE!!
I CALLED THE LANDLORD AND HE KEPT GOING ON AND ON ABOUT HOW HE TOLD EVERYONE THEY DON'T PROVIDE MATTRESSES, BUT NOBODY TOLD ME!! IT BECAME MY WORD AGAINST HIS!! HE CLAIMED THAT I WAS TRYING TO START ARGUMENTS AND THAT HE WANTED TO SOLVE PROBLEMS, BUT WHEN I GAVE HIM MY SOLUTION (JUST BUY A NEW MATTRESS) HE WON'T DO IT BECAUSE HE SAID HE WOULD THEN HAVE TO BUY EVERYONE (THERE'S 10 OF US) A NEW MATTRESS!! HE EVEN SAID MY FRIEND WAS BEING RUDE WHEN HE TRIED TO TALK TO HIM EXPLAINING MY SITUATION!!
TURNS OUT THE EX-TENANT (WHOSE MATTRESS IT WAS) HAD FACED THE SAME THING WHEN HE MOVED IN! HE THOUGHT THE MATTRESS WOULD COME WITH THE ROOM BUT IT DIDN'T, AND THE OWNER SOLD HIM A MATTRESS!! HMM, SKETCHY. I BOUGHT THE MATTRESS OFF HIM FOR $50 BECAUSE I NEEDED A PLACE TO SLEEP - BUT I ENDED UP NOT SLEEPING THERE THAT NIGHT.
WHY?? BECAUSE MY AIRCONDITIONER REMOTE CONTROL WENT MISSING! THE ONE IN MY ROOM WAS FOR THE KITCHEN! NO ONE KNOWS WHERE MY REMOTE IS, AND MY STANDING FAN IS IN MY BOYFRIEND'S MOTHER'S GARAGE, AND I AM NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SLEEP WHEN IT'S HOT.
I ENDED UP SPENDING THE NIGHT AT MY BOYFRIEND'S PLACE. I LIKE IT HERE. I'VE BEEN HERE TWO WEEKS BEFORE MOVING AND I LOVE IT. TOO BAD IT'S TOO SMALL AND WON'T HOLD ALL MY THINGS. BUT I WOULD MUCH RATHER LIVE HERE THAN IN MY PLACE. GRR ARGH.
TODAY UNIVERSITY CLASSES START AND MY FIRST LECTURE STARTS AT 5PM. I NEED BREAKFAST!!
PHEW, I THOUGHT THIS WAS GOING TO BE ABOUT HOW SNORA ZEFRON WAS GAY AGAIN.
I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT, WITH MY FEET FIRMLY ON EITHER SIDE OF MY CAT, SHE CAN BE MADE TO LOOK LIKE SHE IS CONFIDENTLY BOPPING HER HEAD TO THE RHYTHM BEFORE RISING ONTO HINDQUARTERS AND RAISING THE ROOF WITH EQUALLY RHYTHMIC SPLAYED PAWS. IT IS SAD I DO NOT HAVE A TRIPOD, VIDEO CAMERA, OR GAY BAR 'ROUND THE CORNER.
GAH. I'M ANGRY BECAUSE I SPENT ALL NIGHT LOOKING AT METAFILTER AND NOW I'M TIRED. ALSO MY NEW FLATMATE, WHO IS WONDERFUL, HASN'T PAID HIS RENT YET, AND IT'S REALLY REALLY LATE AND I HAVE TO ADDRESS IT WITH HIM, WHICH MAKES ME FEEL EMBARRASSED.
I HAVE THE FLU EVEN THOUGH I GOT A SHOT. WELL I THINK IT'S THE FLU. WHATEVER IT IS, IT KEEPS COMMING OUT OF ME AT SEVERAL ENDS, WITHOUT END. I AM DIZZY, CAN'T FALL ASLEEP, I WANT TO PUKE BUT CAN’T, AND THAT'S ALL I'M GONNA DESCRIBE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
(MonkeyButter - it's the first rent from when he moved in, I told him when it was due, but then left the state. Know it isn't intentional, just feel a little awkward is all.)
OKAY, I AM REALLY STUPID HERE, BUT HELP ME OUT. HEEERALDO, I KNOW WHAT A LEATHER GAY BAR IS BUT WHAT IS A "BEAR" BAR? SORRY TO BE STUPID. MY APOLOGIES.
KANGAROO'S COMMENT ABOUT BUYING THE WHOLE BUS PLUS CHICKEN RACK FOR $173.00 JUST CRACKED ME UP. I NEEDED TO LAUGH!
