What pissed you off today? Mark III

That’s what this thread is for. If she wants to post here to vent, she can.

If you don’t like it, don’t read it.

I used very simple words in my post. Your straw man attack is not very effective.

Fucking traffic and fucking road works...

The argument was valid. But, you idiotic cunt, it was the dumb bitch reference. I'll put this here to let you know :kiddingnotkidding:

No one's asking you to be nice. We ain't dumb bitches. I'm asking you to refrain from guttersnipe name calling. You're better than that (I think).

Gawd.

This pisses me off.

I tried to use small words for you...

Do you need the definition of “Straw Man” and “attack” now as well?

WPMOT? The fact that ignore doesn't work on quote-replies. But since we're having this conversation, and somebody's being slagged off:

Whatever "value" means.
9 out of 10 of your posts this year have been:
"Let me tell you about my medical condition and terrible life."

I don't mind, but don't try to make it look like you wouldn't use this place just as your personal garbage dump. I can't stand hypocrites.

Show me a single post where you actually tried to help someone with advice - or shut the fuck up.

A post doesn't have to be "advice" to be helpful. For example:

Wow, I'm so sorry for you, them and all their families. Gods, that's horrific.

Vix posted that in response to one of mine. At a time when I was sad and upset, that expression of sympathy made me feel a little better. It's not a cure for cancer, but it's still helpful. I could point at other times when she's given the same kind of help.

The converse is also true: just because something's "advice" doesn't mean it's helpful, useful, or well intentioned. For example:

Nothing stops them from having a wedding that has no legal effect.

The fact that ignore doesn't work on quote-replies

You know that you can actually choose to ignore, you don't need technical help for this, right?

Why don't you just say:"I don't have sufficient self-control."? This would be at least honest.

A post doesn't have to be "advice" to be helpful.

Nobody said that. Now what?

The converse is also true: just because something's "advice" doesn't mean it's helpful, useful, or well intentioned. For example:

Oh, you are still mad that I ruined your tearful story with a simple solution to the problem. Wait, wrong thread, I should post this in the "things that made me smile"-thread.

Who is 'we'?

Realizing I'm going to have to bite the bullet and upgrade to a new laptop. My current unit has such a slow processor, it's like using dial-up. And if you know about that...you're old!

I don't wanna use Windows 10 and you can't make me.

P.S. We really need a pouting emoticon!

10 is better than 8 by a great deal if that's any consolation. Would recommend against a Sager brand computer, I've been rather disappointed with mine. Have always had good luck with HP's though. Maybe you can catch a holiday sale?

I can’t even today. I’m just...

 

[gracie920101]

I can’t even today. I’m just...

I'm so sorry you are having a tough time.

I watch your posts. My boss is gluten, soy and dairy free due to allergies. Oh and now rice! He's reduced his diet to various microwaved veggies he douses with siracha. Bleah!

 

[cookiecat]

I can’t even today. I’m just...

I'll second gracie's sentiment. Hope you can stay under the covers and ride out today.

Life in general unfortunately

 

[Blue]

I've been perpetually exhausted/fatigued for apparently no reason for the past week, e.g. I'll still feel extremely tired immediately after waking up and the only thing I actually want to be doing at any point is more sleeping.

Ughhh

This is exactly me. I keep saying it's emotional exhaustion or the change in weather but it's unsettling. Do you have any ideas on why?

For you it's probably both, for me it's probably just the Summer>Winter transition. Didn't really have an autumn where I am.

Same - we jumped straight from 60 degree sunshine to snowing and 30's. Have you thought about those lights for that seasonal affective disorder? I don't know anyone who's actually tried.

I have no idea what that is but I'll google it.

I've been thinking about getting sleeping pills or something so I can just sleep all day because the insurmountable sluggishness for 9-10 hours till my internal clock lets me naturally sleep is torture. Not sure if that's healthy or even effective though.

Do you have a vitamin deficiency? After feeling similar to this, a blood test revealed my vitamin d levels were low. A simple supplement is helping.

 

[gracie920101]

I'm a creature of habit. I love routine. SOS day in, day out. Predictable.

My schedule is disrupted to a)get my ass up before 0 dark 30, b) fly, c) to a place I don't want to go, d) which will be cold, e)to attend something I don't want to attend.

Fuck me, I'm unhappy and should be in bed already (see 'a' above). Fuck.

 

[pumperguy191]

same thing as always, geesh. I need to make changes

 

[adrina]

Waiting. Just more waiting. I'm not particularly good at it and I don't have a choice about it. I just have to wait for time to pass before I can act. Thankfully it should only be a few more weeks.

This fucking sadness feels, at times, insurmountable. It doesnt feel like me. But my god, its all consuming.
