Little Ranting to Clear the Head ...
Jul. 8th, 2004 08:12 amDid you ever have one of those days where everything just plays on your nerves? That was yesterday for me. Boss decides yet again to not bother his ass coming in or logging on so cue very little work for me to do.
The business contact on a campaign who was asked on Monday to get a price list for me, didn't bother until Tuesday and copied me on the mail while saying she was waiting for a reply all of Monday, finally got back to me yesterday so lots of cutting and pasting and testing. If it wasn't for the testing, this job would be so much more fun. But no ... lots of pointless number checking and currency checking ensued.
Between doing this I was trying to read stuff like posts on Mikado but the bloody proxy doesn't seem to like me and wanders off line every few minutes so I'm left sitting there with a page that spends five minutes loading to tell me that there is no page to display. Isn't that lovely... But when I did get into a post that looked interesting, it had been taken over by teenies talking back and forth to each other.
Thats another thing ... Heartbreak Hotel, another board on Mikado, seems to be a spawning ground for the bastards and their little issues. How many times can the question "I'm a nice enough person, but the girls/guys aren't interested. What's wrong with them?" be asked. Everyone always replies with "You have to talk to them, be comfortable with yourself..." Bullshit! Maybe the people have a point ... Maybe you aren't a nice person, maybe you should be treated like something that I scraped off my shoe because if you act like the whiney little turds that you do on Mikado, a barge poll wouldn't be long enough to touch you with. Get off your fucking arses and get out there, talk to people and keep trying until you find someone desperate enough to lay you or talk to you, whatever, but make sure that they tie your hands behind your back with cuffs and then lose the key so that you can't type any more on bulletin boards, telling us that the world is out to get you. It's not, cause you really are that insignificant! Grow up, grow a spine, grow a pair, grow whatever you want but step away from the keyboard before I finally throw off the urge to shove it so far up your ass that you will be spitting keys for years to come! People keep saying that I should cut them some slack, that I was that age once. Yes I was that age, but I was never that bloody stupid, never that immature at that age .. If I was, I would have taken myself out of the gene pool because I would not have been able to live with myself being that damned stupid.
Another thing that really pissed me off yesterday was unfortunately a friend of mine, who said that they would meet me at 5-ish to catch a bus together. I got there and watched bus after valid bus leave with out me on it but still no sign of him. The bus that we ended up getting was the VERY last bus from there that would have taken us to where we wanted to go. And as if this wasn't bad enough, showing up 45 minutes late, they decided that looking out the window was a much better approach than engaging in conversation more than the "Uh huh" level. Got to Maynooth and they decide that they need to have food cause they haven't had much today ... Big fucking deal, all I had was a sandwich, so seeing as they were going to order something that would take about five mins to cook, I got some chips from Supermacs only to get sent on another errand while they were still waiting for food. Finally get to college and the game and force myself to relax, not an easy job with the mood I was in, but getting along well and the ship gets attacked. My character was fighting 1 guy, thats it, just the 1 but obviously this is one too many ... and even after telling him to bugger off and find his own bad guys after taking out a few of his own and my character still going on this one guy (What I have the equivalent of a 12 year old boy?) but still they went after him cause "He was obviously a main np character? And you didn't say it IC!" I didn't say whether it was IC or OOC or anything but they had about 6 guys each but he still had to go after the one guy that I was trying to win a Drama Dice for, only having one in the game cause let's face it, there are more creative and witty people. And yes, I do realise that it is probably a bit of an over-reaction but it's bloody rude to do that no matter what game you are playing, you could at least ask them if they want help.
Yes I am irrational, No I don't care ... I know I'm on the downside of a Depo-Provera cycle and that means that everything PMTy is coming back including the foul humour that goes with it. So the choice is to get like this every month or get the injection again every three months or tear the heads off everyone multiple times a month :(
Unfortunately there is also one more thing that is preying on my mind and it just won't shut up amd worse is that its not something that can be readily discussed cause no one I know can understand it properly and therefore there is no point to discussing it but bar hanging around in internet chat there is nothing I can do about it... Bloody life getting in the way of fun...
Not quite ranted out yet but nothing else really left to say cause line after line of curses is not constructive to anyone...
