DIRM?

Depends on where you are. His post is listed as midday Sunday for my time zone.

The "The Haven" section of the forums keeps randomly dissapearing; this is especially annoying if I want to go post there, and it is missing.

Sometimes I really hate computers.

i'm annoyed by the fact that the person i am currently pursuing has so many beautiful female friends. sure, most of 'em are either taken or thousands of miles away, but i'm a very jealous person.
i am annoyed by the fact that i live between 4 and 5 1/2 hours away from the aforementioned person.
i'm also annoyed by my own jealousy .

I wish to recursively complain about people complaining about those who complain about the laziness of people who complain inadvisedly about the accuracy of the complaints of people complaining about the inconstancy of complaints.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Millennium Digital cable service is a piece of festering crap. They can't keep their service running properly, and their customer service is rock bottom. The only thing that keeps them afloat is the coverage area monopoly cable companies enjoy.

I just called to cancel my service, and I had to first listen to a 2-minute message about how they're ever so sorry they don't have enough service monkeys to deal with the current "extremely heavy call traffic" (probably from people who want to complain that their service sucks).

Then, I navigate through some "Press 1 for this option..." maze, to get to the "make changes in your service" department. And when I get through the maze I hear, "click" and silence. I utter, "Hello?" a few times before I realize the automated phone system has hung up on me. I want those freaking minutes of my life back.

ALSO: If I see just one more, just one more of those "One of your MySpace friends has a crush on you! Find out who!" ads on MySpace, I swear to the gods I will reach into my computer, through the internet, grab Tom by his neck, and crack his head into his monitor. [Oh, it's probably not Tom's fault, but someone must be the focus of my ire.] It was especially annoying when I got the "Somone you recently added as a friend..." variation of these ads... And the only new friend I'd added for quite a long time was... my sister; that was just freaking wierd. I've added a couple of new friends since then, but those ads have really annoyed me ever since then.

To the employees of the Social Security Administration:

I am amazed at the ways you try to bungle my son's SSI benefits. Let's count the ways:

1. You only counted one of the (two) paychecks I submitted for January. That caused an overpayment of SSI benefits....which meant the Administration immediately filed for me to pay back what was owed them.

2. In trying to call and correct this error, you somehow thought I was a wage earner...only my husband is. Again, reporting of too much income this tiime around.

3. Even when I send in the monthly paycheck stubs (as I faithfully do), you somehow manage to return them to me without entering them into the f*****g computer system!! !! ! Then you have the gall to send me a notice to "Please submit paystubs for April and June 2007 ASAP!"

When will it end?

I'd like to complain about the alcoholics who live next door. Actually I have alcoholics on both sides, so you'll be hearing about them from time to time.

This afternoon they lit a fire in a metal barrel in the back yard, it's not the first time they've done it. it's about a foot from my fence and the smoke blows over and it's very intrusive, cos they can see over my fence and into the back windows of my house. they stand around the fire feeding their habit. i hope they get cirrhosis. i hope it rains.

ugh i hate inconsiderate neighbours.

Best one yet!

I’d like to complain about the Flight Attendant who spilled a drink in my lap yesterday. He was really nice and it was an accident, but it was not his responsibility to wipe my lap clean. Things were rubbed. He should have just gone and gotten me a napkin and let me deal with the ice and soda pooled on my lap.

I’d also like to complain about the dude in the middle seat in front of the exit row on that flight. That dude kept turning around and staring at people. First it was the guy in front of me. Then it was the young couple right behind him. Then it was the hot Canadian chick who was bent over in her tight jeans next to me talking to the woman in the seat diagonally adjacent to mine. This guy was downright creepy. I only looked for a few seconds even though she was there for 3-4 minutes and right in my face.

Next, I’d like to complain about the Holiday Inn East Gate off I-275 southeast of Cincinnati. While I am not staying here, this is where we are having our meeting and the conference room is like 55 degrees Fahrenheit. Do you know how hard it is to go through a 400+ slide presentation in a room that is that cold? It sucks!

Finally, I’d like to complain about the movie theatre where I saw The Simpsons Movie. I was charged $4.50 for a large Mountain Dew in a reusable cup, always one to avoid disposable one-use items, and they couldn’t top my drink off. “We don’t do any refills on any of our drinks!” I replied in my best Han Solo voice, “It ain’t a refill when it costs $4.50 sweetheart!”

Wait a minute…anther one. I’d like to complain about the Oil Companies. Due to the Capitalist design of this country, companies like this can take advantage of high demand and make ungodly profits. It seems if we were really in a Time of War, and the economy is under stress, that the government would not allow one of the crucial items to our economies survival in such a trying time be profit-mongered. I believe in WWI and WWII many needed resources were controlled by the government. Seems hypocritical to me.

I’d now like to complain about myself for a momentary lapse in reason and allowing myself to be subjected to the naiveté of the average citizen of this country. Bush, Cheney, and the rest of their cronies don’t just have their hands in that cookie jar, they have their <bleeps> in it, so I’ll complain about them, along with government corruption and corporate greed.

As a matter of fact, I do know. Mind you, I had to sit through an hour and a half lecture of absolute dullness instead of a 400+ slide presentation, but the general concept is the same. Add the fact that I spent twenty minutes walking through the rain to get there and was totally soaked through (and thus really, really cold), and there's my lowlight of last week.

I wish to complain about people, like imipak, who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who complain about people who do not understand what "recursive" means, and people who complain about me.

my buddy's going to the wacken open air festival in germany....i'm rif*ckulously jealous.

I want to complain about the Jelly/Preserves makers. The only flavor I like is Peach Preserves, yet they can't make it into a Jelly? I hate the chunks and end up throwing out 10% of the jar.

Next, I want to complain about the <bleephead> who left a note on my car at the airport Economy Lot. I get to my car and prepare to head for my journey in I-95 Rush Hour Traffic, only to find a note tucked under my windshield wiper. As I open it, I am thinking it BETTER be that somebody hit my car or something. Yah right, like anyone would actually leave a note and accept responsibility. But oh no...this was a not telling me I needed to find jesus or jebus or whatever that guys name is. Did the person who left this not see the bumper stickers and placards on my car about no preaching, going to hell, gay rights, and evolution? This type of person is exactly why I put all of those stickers on my car, because they have no respect for any other belief but their own. They are ruining this country. I only wish I could have had the opportunity to give them a piece of my mind. ARRRRGGGGGHH!! !! !! !! !! Not to mention that they had the audacity to touch my property without my permission.

I want to complain about the person who went above my head and my boss' head to complain about me, in particular, my communication skills and not timely responding to requests. This person is a consultant to the program office I support. I do not work for them. I also am only paid by my program office, but am actually an independent entity reviewing their systems. If said person had an issue, they should have contacted me. Now I know who has been calling my work phone and hanging up without leaving a message. Another apparent complaint was that baseball was getting in the way of doing my job. As I recall, I took one day off to go to Boston for two Red Sox games, which I planned months in advance, and only missed that one Friday for. What the hell?

I'd like to complain about Fridays always coming at the end of the week. If they moved up in the week a bit, the weekend would come sooner. Who would vote against that?
