What Grinds Your Gears? :)

Oh yes, car insurance, that constant thorn in my butt... If anything needs reformed, that does. Irks me that I'm forced to just keep on feeding a company that I get nothing out of unless something bad happens. Maybe.

I wish it worked a little like health insurance with a copay and the car insurance covers at least a little of the cost of maintenance, etc. Not gas, but maybe, say, covers a percentage of the cost of tires once every few years or so. That would be nice. In that case I wouldn't feel like such a free food source for a vampire that just continues to raise the cost.

Sinus problems again, but we're going to get freezing rain, so that's why.

It's just nasty outside. Been that way since yesterday. Looks like the damn Mist is happening.

[Lethal Lullaby]

I hate when the dirt/oil from the road mixes with the snow then it partially melts and becomes all slushy. The worst is when you have no other option but to step into the nasty stuff. >-<

My elbows are really sore. For a very long time I used a computer chair that had no arms. Therefore, I was constantly resting my elbows on the desk. For the last 8 months I've had a chair with arms, but I'm still in the habit of resting my elbows on the workstation. I'm thinking about buying some elbow pads because it hurts like a motherfvcker.

It's been nasty here as well. I slept for the majority of the afternoon yesterday, then I turned around and slept from midnight to about 10 this morning. My cats are hibernating. It's warm and comfortable in the house but they get up, eat and use the box really fast, then plop right back down on the bed before quickly bathing and going back to sleep. I'm not sure how the people in my neighborhood got around to doing fireworks on New Year's Eve but they were out there until 3 or so in the morning. Brave bunch! They must have been wearing wampa fur.

Misguided enthusiasm.

[Davetello]

Paranoia is kicking in and I'm pondering if that's a shot at some of my recent posts.

[Prowler]

Rubber against metal. Especially those damn people who keep rubbing their sneakers against the legs of their desks. UGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH

I don't take shots. If I have a problem, you'll know.

Good good. If that day ever comes I hope you respect me enough to not hold back and to give me both barrels

[Powder]

Certain kinds of TMNT fans, such as those who write fan-fics & think they could do a better job than official staffers, as well as Mona Lisa fanboys, who make me resent the character.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Anyone in particular? I'm wondering who out there thinks they are better writers than the "professionals". Not that it's not possible, of course. I've read some published stuff that should NEVER have seen print....

[Davetello]

Waking up with a splitting headache, coming online to read the news and being confronted with Harry Styles. Again! Will it never fvcking end?

What a horrible, weak-jawed, beady eyed little creature he is. If that's what teenage girls find attractive these days then thank fvck I'm not 18 any more. Easily the worst looking member of that talentless gang of twats. Would love five minutes with him in a room with no windows. Would beat the androgynous little t!t to a fvcking pulp.

My hate for him is truly irrational

[MsMarvelDuckie]

Hmm, if I didn't know better, Dave, I'd say you didn't like the little bugger!

[Davetello]

I just don't get why he's fvcking everywhere, like some sort of little ant. He can't sing, he's below average looking, his fashion sense is fvcking cringeworthy and screams 'try hard', and from the interviews I've seen he seems really thick - he can barely even speak. He's a fvcking loser.

Are women really so pathetically shallow that a nobody like this automatically becomes a somebody simply because he has money and fame and is the in-thing with the media? Somebody stop the world.

Zayn Malik (I had to google his name) is clearly the best looking of the five by a mile. So why is the Styles creature so much more popular than he is?

What an overrated bellend. There are loads of far better looking men than him who don't get half the attention he does. Teenage girls would fancy Franck Ribery if he joined a boyband. Terrible, terrible standards in physical attractiveness.

One from last night: Work making me work on my day off, topped up with a sucky customer near the end.

General: Hate being a cashier so bad, yet they still make me do it. My dislike of it is so severe, I would willingly have taken a pay cut. Plus, seriously pondered actually breaking my hands last night just to get out of it and stay out. Some people are capable of being a cashier for years. I am not.

I am not mean to the customers, it is not their fault, but it's not good for me. It makes me sad to the point of depression.


The other thing that bothers me is I don't ever know if I've ever driven folks away on here. Not away from this site, but just not knowing if anybody just doesn't like me. I know that sounds dumb, but maybe it is the depression speaking, I don't know. I just feel kind of lonely, I always wonder if I just am doomed to it, somehow.

I definitely don't like you. I love you.

Seriously though, it's just your depression talking. I can't imagine you driving anyone away. Now the likes of Cure, Peanut, plastroncafe, Powder and myself? That's another matter We're all angry types.

[MsMarvelDuckie]

I'll somewhat agree. I've seen some really crappy, talentless folks win on American Idol just because they are "cute". Thank Goddess the past season finally had a REAL rocker win! For those who don't watch/know, it was Caleb Johnson, and he's the best one they've had in several seasons. And a REAL "rock-star", too! Seriously, when he covered Aerosmith, he was almost channeling Steven Tyler. Same with Bon Jovi, and when he performed with KISS. Dude could easily be the secret love-child of Meat Loaf and Bret Michaels, LOL!

[Davetello]

Yeah, but that's the point. I've accepted that music is shallow and that talentless people sometimes go far because of their looks. But he isn't even fvcking cute! I can understand David Beckham being more famous than many far better footballers, because women are shallow and he's good looking. I can understand Brad Pitt getting roles over more talented actors because he looks better than them. But that little tool isn't even remotely attractive

It's just hilarious how there's an infinitely better looking guy STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM on stage every night and in every photo. Yet that guy is far less popular. It's not even my opinion either - Malik has objectively superior facial aesthetics and bone structure.

I know I'm ranting but fvcking hell the way some clowns think the sun shines out this guy's bum really pisses me off. If there's one thing I can't abide in life it's overrated people - mainly because so many others are underrated in comparison to them.

Oh, and to top it all off every time Cure posts I have to look at his gimpy face. Rofll.
