The Airing of Grievances

[Gemini Cricket]

And now a word from our sponsor: Gemini Cricket Co.

Everybody dance!

[Disneyphile]

I would like to file a complaint about myself, because I can't find anything to complain about at the moment.

[Prudence]

Oh, you just try and mess with me, oh next door neighbors with the 57 oversized vehicles. You can pretend you don't speak English all you want. But you're parked directly in front of our driveway, so that we can not get our own compact car in or out of our garage. And while you might get away with it other places, here you are parked in a marked fire lane, which means I can call 911 and get your ass towed.

DO NOT MESS WITH THE NEWLY MINTED JD! I haven't yet taken the bar, so I still feel invincible.

As a person in the service industry, I wholeheartedly agree!!

Not to start anything, but aren't Festivus grievances supposed to be about those gathered around the Festivus pole?

NO!


From wikipedia

Airing of Grievances
The celebration of Festivus begins with Airing of Grievances, which takes place immediately after the Festivus dinner has been served. It consists of lashing out at others and the world about how one has been disappointed in the past year. Every household has its own traditions; in one house, the Airing of Grievances consisted of writing the grievances on the fridge in marker.

Frank Costanza: And at the Festivus dinner, you gather your family around, and tell them all the ways they have disappointed you over the past year! I got a lot of problems with you people! And now, you're gonna hear about it. You, Kruger. My son tells me your company STINKS!

George Costanza: Oh, God.

And now I bid you all adieu, as I leave for my mother's traditional Festivus Feast at Norm's. SERENITY NOW!

[Strangler Lewis]

I guess I follow the Frank Costanza liturgical tradition that focuses on those assembled.

My Grievances -

- People who are not smart enough to hire me.
- Driver's licence tests should come with coloring books so those who get the licence will know how to color within the lines.
- Hanna Montana, Britney Spears, Paris, Lindsey and Hillary Duff need to explode.
- Wind between 9pm and 945pm should not exist.
- Broken hearts
- McDonalds needs to go away
- People who pretend to be friends when they're not
- Cast Members with little brain power.
- Gas prices
- George W

I agree grievances should if at all possible be aired in person.
