The Complaining and Bitching Thread

A continuation of a post that I made in the wrong thread.

People that I am sick of seeing & hearing about:

Sofia Vergara--rant previously posted. Please go away & take your exaggerated accent with you.
Taylor Swift--If she was overweight & unattractive she'd be Taylor who?.
Kardashian--Any of them.
J.J. Watt--I can understand JJ raking in the endorsement money because one serious injury could end his footbal career, & he seems like a genuinely nice guy. But I'm also sick of seeing him in commercials ad nauseam when I watch football on TV.
Mattress Mac--Many of you won't understand this one, and for that you should be thankful. He's a horrible pitchman (which unfortunately has become his trademark), but for some reason people here love him. I'll give him credit for some of his philanthropy, but he really needs to let his daughter(s) pitch his furniture stores.

 

I've heard of Taylor Swift -- she's a singer or supermodel or something, I think. Blonde?

I really dislike the fad for giving girls names like "Taylor" and "Madison". But I think fad names for children are a bad idea to begin with.

I see the surname Kardashian used as a synonym for tacky self-promotion, but I don't know how that got started -- some reality show maybe? I'm guessing it's an Armenian name.

There's a joke that more people have been married to Kim Kardashian than have contracted Ebola in the United States. So, presumably Kim Kardashian has been married enough times to be notable for that alone.

Other than that, I don't know these people at all. I couldn't pick any of them out of a line-up.

I'll take your word that they're annoying, so I'm not going to bother Googling them.

 

See. Coworkers can be awful. The bad ones are inescapable. I've only ever worked one place, post college, where I didn't want to stab someone in the eye with a pair of scissors.

 

Freezing rain is in the forecast. Awesome.

 

Watched Anime and tried to work on my novel.

 

Tell me more.
Currently, we're between Colorado and Oregon for next year. Boulder dropped 40 degrees on 4 hours yesterday and ended up under a blanket of snow. I can do freezing rain...

 

I'd rather have snow than freezing rain.
In my house freezing rain is called oobleck from the Dr. Seuss book, Bartholomew and the Oobleck.

 

It has been so nice lately. A bit chilly, but no rain. I HATE WILLAMETTE VALLEY WINTERS.

 

That's easy--They can blame you if the obvious course of action goes wrong.

Some people are simply scared to make a decision. It might be their nature, and/or they might work for a boss who forgets/ignores the 99 things they did right but harps on the one thing they did wrong. Those are the bosses who need to be gut stabbed with scissors, and left to slowly & painfully bleed out.

I'm guessing that you watch very little TV, & pay no attention to the "celebrity" news that pops up on the net. I would make a negative comment on the names one of my nieces chose for her children, but I'd be accused of being racist.

 

Not enough hot water to fill the whole tub.

 

I hate being cold, I hate being cold, I hate being cold!!!!!

 

So it's clear that if that if you hadn't been as good as you were that they would have just cut you at 3 months?
Damn, that's cold.
Doesn't sound like you owe them anything and it seems like the minute you're not the flavor of the week you'll be gone.

Sorry to hear that you got stuck with such smegheads.
Hope you find some people with integrity next time.
