Your Daily Rant

I have a complaint. Thanks to a certain forum member and the weekly Skype guitar lessons he's provided my daughter-in-law to be; I now have an Aboriginal gal on my sofa playing acid-rock guitar licks. I feel like I'm tripping man...:cool:lol!

Actually, she's getting pretty good.:)

She could be playing Something In the Air by Thunderclap Newman or Rock and Roll All Night by KISS...

To Whom It May Concern,

If you're going "commando", make sure that your trousers' fly can close/stay closed. Nobody wants to see if you get "frisky" on public transportation (especially young children.) It wasn't the first time you've done this with this particular driver...

To Whom It May Concern #2,

It was your duty to refuse the guy from kvetch #1, especially if he doesn't pay his fare. I hope you've learned your lesson when the nice police officer arrested you in front of your passengers...

Dear Department of Sanitation,

If you're going to insist that recycling be placed loose in the recycling bin, rather than neatly bagged, please inform your drivers that they must be careful emptying the bin into the truck. Otherwise, the loose recyclables will blow all over the damn place!:mad:

Yours Truly,

To Whom It May Concern,

If you can find the person who keeps "painting" the hallway and/or let's their dog/s use the halls as "trees", I'll work on finding out if my furred managers are going outside their boxes.

In addition, I'm not going to throw out a garbage bag that's not even 1/8 full from cleaning said boxes (why waste a garbage bag for miniscule amounts?) Besides, PineSol is both offensive and toxic to animals.

Attention Walmart shoppers:

If you insist upon reading in the check-out line. Kindly leave enough room for paying customers to get past your sorry A$$!:mad:
 
To Whom It May Concern,

You're complaining that your lunch's not what you actually want? Be fooking grateful you can fooking complain. I just found out that one of my rl friends is lucky to just track after her fifth (or is it sixth?) stroke. She now "lives" in a nursing home/assisted living facility. She's not even fifty!

Why limit it to Wal-Mart shoppers? ANY shoppers in the checkout line anywhere. I like to look at the cooking magazines, but I don't actually pull them out and read them, and I've given up on the "rags" that are in the same racks (not worth the time imho.)

To Whom It May Concern,

If you're not going to purchase something in the grocery store, leave it the fook alone. I don't want to pick up a package of drink mix or a loaf of lower carb bread and find out that I can't buy it because it's open/missing some of its contents. Ditto a diet soda that's half consumed and returned to the shelf.

Ditto a box of sugar-free frozen treats that are half consumed and placed in an inconspicuous place until it has melted or gone "off".

Once something's opened and/or eaten/drunk, the store cannot sell it, therefore they have to write it off as a loss, causing prices to go up.

Our day us soon....imagine an electric engine...the reduction in unfamiliar parts and things that break will be phenomenal...
 
To Whom It May Concern,

If you're "desperate" enough to loot a house/apartment after a natural disaster, please check for cadavers. You'll be a great help for their survivors. Hell, an 87-year-old invalid drowned in her house, and six fooking sets of looters stole items from her house while her body just laid there, decomposing. True, it was too late for her, but she'll be able to be buried and her family and friends will be able to grieve properly.

What if she had been alive when the first set of looters ransacked her home? She might still be alive today.

I'm ready for that. If I were a younger man I'd be half tempted to do a conversion on the wife's Miata. I've been through every sensor in that damed thing and everything checks out. Yet, it won't start. Now I know how my doc feels when he tries to figure out my heart skips and every test comes back normal.....:confused:

There are stupid laws, then there are stupider laws! So, a while back an adult doll maker in Shenzhen, China offered me an insane amount of money to do an online photo catalog for them and made arrangements to have several of their dolls shipped to my location for the shoot.

Everything was fine until they started shipping the smaller dolls. Nearly all were confiscated by customs. As if that wasn't annoying enough, the local authorities come round and start asking a lot of personal questions. Come to find out, if a bloke orders an adult doll over 95cm, but under 140cm they are suspected of being a pedophile! Had to show my union card an everything to prove I was a photographer. They even asked for a copy of the photo shoot agreement. It's a freaking doll you idiots!:mad:

So, now that the shoot has been over for nearly 2 months and a reduced fee agreed upon for not being able to photograph the complete range, AU customs decides to get up off their collective arses and release the remainder of my shipment from Shenzhen. Now I have half dozen diminutive adult dolls in my study that the manufacturer expects me to photograph gratis and return!

Would it have been less expensive to "ship" you there instead? Just curious.

Not that I had any desire to fly to mainland China, but wouldn't have been just me. Also needed a make-up artist on this one, my wife. So, you're talking 1st class round trip airfare and accommodations for 2 plus expenses on top of my regular fee. Not to mention having to hire a fully equipped photo studio for us to work in for a week or 2. Hell I'd have just hired a local photog, but for me to do it, shipping everything over was the best option.
 
To Whom It May Concern,

I am missing two mugs (one was used to give my furred managers their water) and I now have no everyday bowls (all four that I had had to be thrown out because they literally shattered.) :kitty:s require water, moreso if they eat dry kibble. Oh, and I have a d@mn good reason for not having automatic toilet bowl cleaners in my apartment (I was lucky that I prevented the furred purrson plural drinking from the bathroom [the sink was turned off, so you have an idea where Tovarish, Tomodachi and Maneki were looking].) Oh, and there was a thick soap film on practically every remaining dish, pot and pan, to the point that I had to reassure everything.

The person "helping" me was the one doing this sh!t, and I have posted in my bathroom all of the rules concerning the furred ones' requirements (ditto in the kitchen.) I wonder if she lowered her price to bring in clients...
