Are you pissed off today?
 
Because I am. So feel free to vent here.

I'm running on about 3 hours of sleep (something I used to do all of the time, but not so much now) because I had to scrub grease off of the walls and floor of our new place because nobdy has done it for, oh, it looks like maybe 5 or 6 years? And then I'm so tired this morning I forget to put in my contacts so everything is blurry today. Plus it's cold and raining, and everybody else here at work has got attitude today and acting retarded and... and... and I'm just not in a great mood right now.

Well, I'm pretty pissed.

I was driving back from work, and getting my paycheck, so I could then go to our store's other location and help my friend with his batch of bagels he had to make...sounds glorious right?

so it's a nice, cold, shitty, fucking rainy day. Right? Better drive safe, right?

well I guess driving straight, going under the speed limit, and being sober doesn't fucking matter because I hit the gas to match the speed limit and must have hit black rain, my car went out of control like a mother fucker, tipped a bit, then spun a 100 degree turn to the right, just alittle sharper than sideways and my driver door went smashing into some kind of road sign. Then I proceeded to excel into the ditch, and also hit a tree with my drivers side. The same way my cousin smashed his head all nice and got brain damage that vegetablized him his entire life. Somehow I didnt hit my head, or anything. I didnt even get cut or anything when my window shattered into a thousand pieces. Just a bit of stiffness in my joints but that's about it. The people on the scene said I was lucky to be alive the way I crashed, while true they just didn't realize I was badass.

Oh, but what I DO have to show for it is

1. I got a nice ticket for $114 from the police because I had failure to control my vehicle...even though what happened was OUT of my control.

2. I totalled my fucking sweet ass cop car, just a few months after I got it, and I wasn't finished paying it off. So now I have to continue paying off a ghost car. Which sucks normally, but dude...it's my fucking COP CAR! THE BLUES MOBILE.

I think it's fair to say Blues is DEAD.

and the police are Dicks.

But you all knew those two facts anyway, right?

cheers.

Villain Bird 10.24.2008 04:35 PM

Oh this is Dead Disco Dildo btw, just on the other name

Villain Bird 10.24.2008 04:43 PM

They're all fucking cunts.

Whatever, not like it's news or anything.

Hey did you hear? the police suck!?

haha.

I'm just glad I'm alright and noone was near me cuz the way I skidded I probably would have hit every car near me.

pbradley 10.24.2008 05:00 PM

I'm pretty content. Very little responsibilities today which is nice for a friday.

Laundry, go to an art exhibit... all I really have to do. Maybe I will call friends tonight for drankin.

three hours? ha ha ha!

i've been awake for the past 30!
and I'm feeling sharp.

EVOLghost 10.24.2008 05:57 PM

I feel ok.

Villain Bird 10.24.2008 06:16 PM

Then get the fuck out of this thread!

:-)

Pookie 10.24.2008 06:21 PM

I was pissed off today.

But today has just become tomorrow, so I was pissed off yesterday.

Today I'm not pissed off, so the answer to the question is: no.

But if I'd answered when the question was asked (today, now yesterday) the answer would have been:yes.

But I would have predicted that I wouldn't be pissed off yesterday's tomorrow, which is now today's today.

Pookie 10.24.2008 06:21 PM

Anything further father?

the ikara cult 10.24.2008 06:24 PM

I had my inner child surgically removed when i was 13

Pookie 10.24.2008 06:25 PM

Along with any good taste in music it would seem.

floatingslowly 10.24.2008 06:36 PM

I"m not pissed off. just completely unstable. I feel like I'm sweating nitroglycerin.

good times.

phoenix 10.24.2008 07:40 PM

I'm not pissed off, but i'm not in a great mood. I'll be happier when today is over.

Grete 10.25.2008 06:51 AM

no :D

afterthefact 10.27.2008 09:19 AM

I'm in a much better mood today. I hadn't even thought that maybe my being anxious about moving over the weekend might be affecting my mood.

Good news is that we are all moved now, and I love our new place.

We were initially going to move because we wanted to save money, and we almost got this cheap, albeit crappy and sort of ghetto, apartment. I'm glad we didn't. I didn't want our daughter to grow up there.

Where we are now is great. There is nobody below us (just garages) so Sadie can run around all she wants, and there is a big yard next to us for her to play in.

So to sum it all up, I am in a much better mood today. :)

greedrex 10.27.2008 09:32 AM

no. I have a shitload to do though and i can't be arsed.

PAULYBEE2656 10.27.2008 09:36 AM

greedrex 10.27.2008 12:53 PM

this is pretty trippy

tesla69 10.27.2008 03:42 PM

doing great until I read this

Helen was traveling through JFK airport security when she was flagged for further screening. A Transportation Security Administration (TSA) employee asked to see Helen's I-Phone.
Helen tells me she was hesitant to hand over her new $400 phone, and she was unclear as to why she had turn over her private property in order to board a plane.
"He said it could be used as a weapon," she explains, shrugging. The shrugs says: So what was I supposed to do?
Helen gave the TSA employee her phone, and he proceeded to search through her list of contacts. Explaining the incident, Helen still squirms in her seat, and I can tell how violated the treatment made her feel.
The TSA employee then explained he would have to take her phone for further inspection, and that Helen could reclaim it later at the airport help desk. At this point in her story, Helen throws up her hands in exasperation.
When Helen went to reclaim her phone, the airport employees claimed they couldn't find it.
"I said, 'No, no, no. Look, I have his name! I was just here!' They looked at me like I was crazy. They said, 'Sorry, your phone isn't here.'"
This kind of story isn't uncommon. Understandably upset and furious, Helen went home to vent to her friends. To her surprise, many of her Muslim friends said they too had experienced this kind of airport theft.
"Items get stolen at the airport all the time by TSA staff," says Udi Ofer, the New York Civil Liberties Union's advocacy director.
In the United States, the Fourth Amendment protects citizens against unreasonable searches and seizures. But there is a big loophole, Ofer explains, "On the issue of the Fourth Amendment, the biggest obstacle is that the courts have held that, by voluntarily flying, passengers waive their rights."
To be clear: if TSA made this seizure of property an official policy, it would be considered illegal. However, it appears that many TSA employees are making this an unofficial perk of their job. If enough harassment victims step forward, Ofer explains, the NYCLU and ACLU would be happy to take the cases.
The problem is that harassment victims often feel afraid, and they're too busy to spend months in litigation. However, this kind of harassment has a history of only getting worse if conscientious citizens don't demand justice.
Now is a precarious time for Muslim-Americans. One need only watch a John McCain rally to understand that there exists danger in the forms of bigoted, hateful ideologies. But fear is ignorance's ally. It is up to brave women like Helen to come forward with their stories and put an end to this harassment.
A government-sponsored thug caste that riffles through private property and illegally seizes the possessions of frightened citizens is behavior indicative of a fascist regime, but not the United States of America.
Even when airborne, we should still expect to keep our rights.

Grete 10.27.2008 03:46 PM

yeahhh today I'm reallyy pissed off
I've to study a lot..umpf

pbradley 10.27.2008 03:52 PM

Kind of annoyed that I'm way fucking tired but don't want to miss my next class since we're going to talk about a fascinating book.

Also coffee is empty promises.

phoenix 10.27.2008 04:19 PM

:mad: yes. my partner is getting back from OS and I have to go to classes. I can't pick him up, because its my last week and I can't afford to miss any. Instead of getting a taxi home he's getting a taxi to work and is gong to stay there until I finish at 7 30-8 tonight. Work is where the ex goes to school. This is not appropriate after the week we've had. :mad: :mad: :mad:

ploesj 10.27.2008 04:35 PM
