The Complaining and Bitching Thread

He said to me "I love you".
I automatically said back, "I love you too."
It was so casual cool, so everyday, like we meant it or something.
What the hell am I supposed to do with that?!

 

The brown nosing new guy is telling the interim dean information about the other dean candidates so that when he has HIS interview he'll have inside information. It's so childish.

The interim dean should have gone first.

One more outsider interview today, interim douchebag's is the 18th and then I think 2 more after that.

I hate it here.

 

I agree snowy I live approximately one hour from downtown Chicago but whenever I'm asked, I respond with northwest Indiana and the city name. Depending on the conversation I may indicate I'm an hour removed from Chicago being on the southeastern most part of its sprawl.

 

I dunno...when I'm talking to people who aren't from Ohio, I'll say I'm from Cincinnati. Or "near Cincinnati." If they know the area, I elaborate, if not, they sure as hell aren't going to know the small town I'm from. *shrug*


In other news, I hate when people pull into the parking lot, and then sit there for twenty minutes before coming in. I just said, "outside" before you pulled up, and now my dogs are freaking out. Or I have to pee. But no, I have to wait, to see what you're going to do. Arg.

 

Pfft... I'm from Earth, the rest of you motherfuckers are local scene snobs.

 

Yeah, I don't really fucking care. CinnamonGirl and I have spent enough time in downtown Cincinnati, Over the Rhine and Clifton to be able to say we're Cincinnatians. We're also huge Reds and Bengals fans. (She gets more excited about the Reds and I get more excited about the Bengals...so we're golden.)

When I was living in Yellow Springs....even Ohioans didn't know where that was because it was so tiny. I just said I lived in the Dayton Area. That shut people up.

 

Most people in NC don't even know Dayton. Speaking of the Reds, OPENING DAY IS IN SEVENTEEN DAYS! Which...isn't bitching or complaining. So, uh, I'll bitch that I won't be in Cincinnati for the Opening Day Parade. Grrr, arrrg.

 

We actual hippies resent this

 

A dirty one, too. I'll manage all your mobile toilet needs AND put my thumb in your girl's ass all while drinking one of your beers and diggin' through your 'frige.

So... I was at the range earlier today, blasting my I-kinda-hate-you-now Glock 19 (turns out you can shoot something too much) at a piece of paper with a bunch of little circles on it. A lot of people take pride in shooting man-sized targets with two foot shotgun patterns out of their handgun at 15 feet, but since I shoot competitively, I'm more into precision work. I'm a perfectionist that coldly assassinates brightly colored 1.5" Post-It notes for an hour. Mmm, it's really good therapy most of the time.

Guy to the left of me was a late 40s Asian gentlemen with a Ruger Mk2 (classic .22 target pistol), Browning Hi-Power (classic WW2 era 9mm) and a Glock 19 (ubiquitous concealed carry gun, every real man has one). He was blowing out a good fist-sized circle on a half-size silhouette at 15 feet with his Glock while I was attempting my dot torture acrobatics. Although the group could have been better, he had some solid fundamentals and probably would whup the shit outta most of the crowd of too-many-toys manly-men there if he went with a more modern shooting technique. Let this be a lesson to you all: the old Asian guy that wears the late '90s Sears clothes and drives the crusty Nissan Maxima be poppin' caps like a straight-up killer.

Feel like I didn't see everything I wanted to this week because I was the odd man out. More Spain, please

 

Yeah...I saw him all the time. I accused him of stalking me one evening when he parked next to me then... then went to Peach's to eat dinner after me...then went to the Emporium after me for the wine tasting and music....then back to peach's for beer. Stalker. Ok, maybe not really since there aren't too many places to go in Yellow Springs.

He's actually very nice and his kids crack me up!

The locals never bothered him, but you could tell who a tourist was by how they reacted with him. I was a bitch to him like I am to everyone else.

 

This area is so damn small compared to where I grew up the "biggest town" you can say you are from is 15 thousand counting the horde of college kids and drops rapidly from there.
My hometown was only 10-12 thousand at most in my youth but a short drive brought you to either Salem or Portland which are definitely not small. I appreciated that distance when I bought my turntable and diamond tip stylus, in these parts I strongly suspect my nearest option for that kind of thing is a solid hour plus away one way in Spokane.
