Don't you just wanna........ (a.k.a. New Vent)

Ponine · 03-23-2007, 03:39 PM

Shake that person senseless?
Or be able to just scream out loud in a public place?

The child that thinks video games outrank homework,

The signifigant other that just wont leave well enough alone?

The co-worker that you dont even know, let alone LIKE, that glares at you as if you sat on her new puppy?

Or or.... people with their own ability to use the internet to look for answers, but instist on perstering YOU for said answer?

Yes, I'm talking to you, all of you people who insist on pestering me in my safe little work cave.

dont you just wanna push that darned red button hanging in the computer room just to see what it does? just once?

Don't cha want to have the teacher show you how exactly one hour of homework consists of - 30 mins reading, 20 mins writing, 3 pages of math, 2 pages of vocabulary, 8 pages of history reading/questions answering and some science. Cause supposedly that all adds up to one hours worth.

I'd like to give that problem client exactly what she is asking for, even if her hair does turn green.

RStar · 03-23-2007, 08:41 PM

Don't ya just want to take your boss by the throat, tell him that after 27 years you DO know what you are doing, and that perhaps it's time for a raise, since it's been 6 or 7 years since the last one?

No?

Must just be me then

Don't you just want to tell a client how stupid they are?

MANY times (especially recently). And, no, I can't do my job until you answer these questions for me. And, yes, you giving me that information in a piecemeal fashion DOES change the scope of the project, even though you don't think it should! There's a reason we put deadlines and requirements in the scope of work!!!

.... get out of my car when some freak meat decides not to use their blinkers, (especally when they decide to make a left at last minute) and smash both of their lights with a small black billyclub... then tell them.. "you dont use them so you dont need them", then smile afterwards and get back into my car and drive off....

Sometimes I just wanna delve into my grandma's mind and figure out where she comes up with these cockamamie ideas. I know some of it has to do with old habits die hard, or can't teach an old dog new tricks - or whatever, but seriously. I can sit there and have an intelligent conversation with her, reason with her using known facts, have her agree with me and seem to understand, only to hear her revert the next day to by-gones and old stereotypes. GRR

That, and what's it with her martyr complex? She'll tell me how she doesn't feel well, how blah blah blah, then she decides to go to a track meet for my sisters (that I already told them I couldn't go to) because it's not fair that they don't have anyone there. How come it was fair that no one came to my stuff when I was a kid? Why is it she has to go now - probably get more sick - only to prove some point. A point that doesn't need proving. Now she's on the phone with my mom telling her how sick she is and how she's going to go. Probably to make my mom feel bad for not going to my sisters' entire track meet.

GHJSkdf hkas~!!!

I think she just wants to go so that she gets sick and can make us feel bad, only to refuse going to the doctor, because she's OK - /cough /cough.

Don't you just wanna drop a brick through the neighbor's windshield when they park overlapping part of your driveway and yes, with some maneuvering you can technically figure out a way to get your own car in and out, but really you should be able to drive right into the garage because it's not your fault they have five automobiles and have turned their garage into a rec room and their drive way only holds two cars and there's no guest or street parking.

And don't you want to replace the brick with a English/Spanish dictionary after they pretend (and I know it's pretend because they yell a lot - in English - and I can hear it through the wall) they don't speak English and can't possibly understand your pantomime that you need them to move their car?
