DRUNK PEOPLE.

Oh give me strength, shut up repeating yourself.

 

[micko]

By the way, I think this thread is pin worthy now.

Yea and smoking infront of hospitals....RAAAAAAARW

At my local hospital you get loads of patients gathering outside the main door in front of the huge no smoking sign dressed in pyjamas and slippers and most attached to portable oxygen cylinders!

Yea and smoking infront of hospitals....RAAAAAAARW

Yea this one gets to me too - particularly when it is the local cancer hospital!

Oh where to begin with this one.

Drunk people - my downstairs neighbour in particular, pressing the flat buzzer every 2 mins between 2am-5am trying to get a different flat number but pressing mine. My little girl, crying and bawling because this buzzer sounds like a foghorn and of course she's trying to sleep but keeps getting a fright I went and told him he's pressing the wrong buzzer and to get away from my door before I politely remove his legs and have him bed bound. The next day I disconnected my buzzer

Chavs - Just because I drive a GTI which is pretty quick for a naturally aspirated engine, it does not give you the right to sit on my bumper in your pathetic 1.2 puddle jumper AAARRGGGHHHH BUY A REAL CAR!!!!!No offence to any normal person who drives a smaller engined car-you probably don't drive around thinking your in a ferrari.
Sticking cheap plastic crap onto your car doesn't make it fast, neither does cramming your mates into it-what are you trying to achieve? world record for how many people can fit in a corsa? neither does big banging bass, neither does a big trash can exhaust-esp on a 1L what the hell are you thinking? It's just noise then it disappears after 3k revs and it's just a whooshing sound. No power behind it what so ever, do yourself a favour, save the embarrassment and get the bus. Sitting revving it next to me wont get my attention once again save yourself the embarrassment I cringe on your behalf.

Sitting sellotaped to my bumper doesn't make you the big man I mean really you want to be sitting in my boot? Cus that's where you'll be if I brake. I have a 2 year old in the back #63###, I can't stand it. They think they are all high and mighty in their cringe worthy ticky 12v timing chains
Taxi drivers are the same, they must think they have a different set of speed limits than everyone else. Also sitting on my bumper. Nobody cares about the "baby on board"

That feels so much better. I probably come across as a #118#### but all these little boys who think they are in the fast and furious need to sit back and think they cause the insurance to go up themselves by being statistics. I am no better than anyone else but I don't drive my cupra thinking i'm all that, I drive it modestly. I don't race around acting a fool, cutting people up, not using indicators cus that's a sad thing to do

Other message boards tick me off. There's freedom of speech for some and not others. Here's my moan:

Someone asked whether he should put vodka with clove oil to euthanise his goldfish. After the OP had decided against it, I explained about a study I read a while back regarding pain rates of euthanasia methods in goldfish, saying that vodka with clove oil had one of the worst rates, while clove oil alone had one of the best. Suddenly I came under attack by this person saying that she didn't believe scientists could test a fish's pain and that I was cruel for saying that his method of euthanising his fish was painful... HE JUST SAID HE DIDN'T USE VODKA! I WAS AGREEING WITH HIM #63###! So after reading that and feeling more than a little bit annoyed at her response, I explained the method used to test the hormones secreted in a fish's urine when they're in pain using gas spectrometers and the like, and said that I would appreciate if she read the whole post and didn't label me as cruel when, in fact, I was bringing the OP comfort by saying he did the right thing. But here's what really ticked me off:

My post explaining the test was removed. The post calling me cruel still remains.

Now, I've been a member of that message board for almost a decade, and little miss judgemental has been there a year. You'd think I might have gained a little bit of respect in the field in that time but evidently not. I left the board for a couple of years a while back and now I'm starting to remember why...

I hate when people come on here just to sell things and then go.

 

[Crossfire]

I hate it when people come to the forum to show off their fish or tank and then when expierianced and kind members come and inform the OP that the fish needs a bigger tank, has wrong tankmates, needs a filter, needs a heater, tank too small, etc. The good people of this forum are then attacked because we're a bunch of "hippies" and that we're "stupid" and "mean" and "Kings of Tanks" Yes this happened. Yes, you may know who I'm talking about. If you can't handle constructive criticism, then don't show off your betta in a flower vase or clown loach in a 10 gallon tank saying "they only get as big as the tank allows!" These people make me want to punch the computer

 

[blinky000]

Agreed! There's no helping some people. Especially the ones who come on here ASKING for advice and then deny that the reason their tank is cloudy and their fish are dying is anything to do with the nitrogen cycle and being overstocked. DON'T ASK THEN!!

 

[This Old Spouse]

+1 +1 +1!!

 

[Fintastic!]

No rant for the moment. Just well done Micko, I love this thread! I've a feeling it's nowhere near the end yet.....

 

[blinky000]

I just burned my hand pretty badly on the fish light. I work as a copywriter so it's making typing extremely difficult I need to buy some more LEDs...

 

[KrazyKuhli]

Gah My family are doing my head in!! Only time I speak to them is at X-mass and when they need to moan about my wife....I'm officially cutting them off, don't need this hassle

 

[snake007]
