A LITTLE CHEESE WITH THAT WHINE?

[firegirl]

I wanted a thread where one could whine about the things in their life which are bugging them... I know it's pure, unadulterated drivel... but, here goes mine.

HOW is it that I am 32 years old and I STILL get zits? I mean - I don't eat chocolate (much,) drink soda and I wash my face regularly... also one would think that my hormones are firmly in check by now... so WHY DO I HAVE ZITS?!?

I have a huge one which is about to eat my face at the moment & I have to have promo photos taken tonight.

WTF!?!?!?!



...Phew! I feel so much better now.

Whine away, y'all!

[pablo]

Start having sex immediatly!

I'm not kidding.

I'm 42, and I remember having acne in high school. Then I graduated and met my first real girlfriend in college. We started doing the hokey-pokey every other day - I'll spare you the details - and my acne vanished almost overnight.

Ah yes, those were the days...

What I'd like to whine about is the price of gasoline. I filled the tank today in Glen Ellyn IL... $2.04 a gallon for unleaded! Can anyone beat that rate? This time last year in Illinois it was around $1.75.

Well... I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore! That's what Peter Finch says in the movie "Network", and I've never disagreed with him.

Who's next? Don't be shy.

2.04 a gallon? Come over to California and say that, buddy.

[gav]

you gotta be kidding me

If there's 1 thing you folks in the US shouldn't complain about, it's the price of of your gas !! You have the cheapest anywhere.
Here in europe we pay US$1.25 per liter that's US$4.75 per gallon !!!!
Find something realistic to whine about .
I'm going to start planning me a US road trip now that I know how cheap your gas is, I'll even get myself a 3.5 ltr V8 Chevy and it will still be cheaper to run than my 2ltr 4cylinder Bedford.
Oh yeah, I'm 33 and I still get zitz too. Think of it as natures way of making you appear younger than you actually are. It's a blessing in disguise.

Ah yess, Firegirl!! Sounds like one of my ex wives. She got zits every month and then the next few days I knew that whatever I did was WRONG!! See I would not dare to mention (whispers) that time of the month.

I fell off my skateboard on Tuesday night and landed on my forhead. Five stiches and a bad concussion. I've had a bad headach and a fuzzy brain for the past few days and have had to suffer through seven shows, plus load out and load in. I too was gonna do promo pics this week, but it's hard to hide stiches with makeup, (unlike zits).

[firegirl]

WAKE UP CALLS

i don't know - this is really a monster zit. i tried to hide it with makeup last night & i think it was still quite visiable... in fact i think that it could be seen from outer space... so there.

sorry to hear about your skateboard fall. ouch.

and, PETER! geez, pete, man... i am not talking about period zits, dude. (as a woman i just am used to expecting that to happen... AND, i had that kind of zit a week and a half ago.) i'm talking about no reason, whatsoever zits... not everything in the world is connected to pms, dude.

::rolling eyes towards the sky::

gas in the uk costs four bucks? good lord - i thought that $2.75-$2.90 (which is what we pay here in the bay area) was bad.

makes me happy not to own a car... buddah bless the bart and muni... thank you taxi cab drivers...

TODAY:
i would like to whine about people who are so stupid that they cannot calculate the time zone difference between new york and san francisco.

this week has been a plauge of one particular person calling me at an ungodly hour of the morning (5am our time - 8am their time)... aside from the fact that there is a THREE FUCKING HOUR TIME DIFFERENCE between us... aside from the fact that this person GETS PISSY with me when i occasionally call him late at night (has happened twice in a year and a half)... aside from the fact that this person harps on these two occasions repeatedly...

aside from all of that:

WHAT THE FUCK IS HE DOING CALLING ME AT 8AM ANYHOW?

my momma always told me that it was rude to call anyone at home before 10 in the morning... even if he thinks he's calling me at 8am - he's being a douche bag as far as manners are concerned.

bah-humbug. like it's not bad enough that the recycling truck wakes me up at 5:26 every morning (granted - i usually fall back asleep...)

but, this moron keeps calling me...

why? not for any pressing reasons. "just to talk."

i hung up on him this morning.

the worst part? this person has known me for the better part of 15 years & KNOWS that i am not functional until after 12 noon & four cups of coffee.

Holy shit

I guess there is always a place to vent. Even here, I have nothing really to bitch about but decided to post on bitching, Life is tough huh people, fuck I mean with zits and gas prices US goverment occupation and not getting enough action.
Plus being spring and the work outside being diffucult,
There is a bright light to it all,
Evan I am sorry to here about you accident take asprin, smoke pot, and take the shots profile or emphisize your wound so you will look hardcore.
Firegirl: That city is the pits for the trash and the overall noise factor. but you live in a cool city, Rent is high, but what the hell. It has been awile since I had been there.
Tell me Fire girl are you a burningman goer? if you are then that is something you can look forward to. I certainly am. Just a question do you wear that shirt alot?
Gav: Are you going to ed fringe? I know I am off topic but don't whine to me about it.

[firegirl]

nope - never been to burning man. i may go someday - but, it seems as if it wouldn't really be my thing - from what's been described to me.

yeah - i wear that shirt a lot. my friend made it for me (he owns a t-shirt shop.) i like it.

it's a silly venting place.

and, i do live in a cool city.
i look forward to a lot of things.

Here's my whine for the day:
WHHHHHHYYYYY do I torture my body when it's exhausted by making it stay out until 3:30 am in the morning... consume lots of alchoholic beverages to the point of drunkness... and, THEN I force myself to get up at a "reasonable" hour so that I can sit and feel hungover.

BAH!

I am an idiot.

;P

Hmm $2.25 a gallon, and I decided to buy myself a gas eating motorhome to drive to canada from Florida with. $1.95 in Georgia. I guess I can kiss a $1000 or so US goodbye. At least in Europe I had the sense to drive a 3 cylinder van. Opps.

thats stil half the price we pay in europe !

[stickman]

Gav my 23 ft motorhome wouldn't fit on the roads in Europe. The problem is it uses "5 times" the amount of fuel my van in Europe used. That is untill the junkies in Dublin burnt it too the ground.

Anyways before you mention it. I also know about the road taxes in Austria and probally Germany by now. The tolls in France on the way into Paris. Also the inability to get insurance as a forgiener. Hmm ferries are also insanly priced.

Did I mention my hats were also the aproximatly the same amount in Europe as here only the money translates as alot more then the americain dollar. In England pretty much twice the US dollar.

Hmmm.
