Where did the phrase ';toppin' cotton'; originate and what does it mean? To rant & rave, carry on like crazy?
I've used this phrase when someone is ranting and raving about something that bugs them, but never have heard where it started. Just curious.Where did the phrase ';toppin' cotton'; originate and what does it mean? To rant %26amp; rave, carry on like crazy?
Suggestion only.Picking Cotton in the blazing Sun gave way to Sun stroke and peculiar behavior,such as ranting and fits.Where did the phrase ';toppin' cotton'; originate and what does it mean? To rant %26amp; rave, carry on like crazy?
thanks for your response... make sense about Sun Stroke.
To be honest, I've never heard of that phrase. I've tried looking up some information on but I can't find anything..

How soon until Sho-nuff starts getting manic again and ranting an raving?
Poor guy! Schizophrenia is a terrible thing to have to deal with!How soon until Sho-nuff starts getting manic again and ranting an raving?
Hehe he's great.
One word tho: Decaf.How soon until Sho-nuff starts getting manic again and ranting an raving?
he thinks being omnipotent = would get all women pregnant. check out his other funny questions. hes totally representative of the atheists here, which is a bad and sad thing.
LOL
I think his questions are very entertaining.
I like his questions.
I've never seen him ranting and raving...seems like someone struck an uncomfortable chord with you. Sho-nuff is cool.
His questions must be really threatening to you for you to malign him. You must be a Christian. You must be dizzy from all your circular reasoning.
Sit down and take a break, dear.
Stick to debating issues instead of aiming personal abuse at other members.

What do you think the FA should do about alex ferguson's latest ranting and raving?
some ideasthat the FA could use to punish alex ferguson
(1)ban him from having any more chewing gum for the rest of the season
(2)ban him from going round to rooneys house to watch the film shrek
(3) ban him from having any more bum fun with ronaldo
(4)the next time he loses they should make him explain why they lost instead of getting carlos queiroz to do it
if you can think of any more then tell usWhat do you think the FA should do about alex ferguson's latest ranting and raving?
omg i totally agree the miserable old c^nt... as for the chewing gum... god that really p^sses me off, stick it where the sun dont shine.... hes such a BAD looser. its true you hardly ever see him when they loose. and someone shud do sumthing bout rooney and his temper tantrums and dangerous fouls (like yesterday) but no matter how much i hate manu there is no denying c.ronaldo is class.... and has a lovely bum!What do you think the FA should do about alex ferguson's latest ranting and raving?
kick his scottish assss!
Present him with another award....
they should make him take charge at west ham
Give him the England manager job as punishment
The same they do with any other manager: sweet F.A.
Let him whine, he only embarasses himself. As of now it's fairly expected.

Have you changed your opinion of Obama after seeing his pastor rant and rave like a mad man?
I am a Hillary supporter, but I have said that I would vote for Obama if he got the nomination. I HAVE CHANGED MY MIND!!! After seeing the horrible racist things his pastor said today I have really thought about this. Why would Obama sit under such opinionated talk and support this by attending the church, being a member, or financially giving tithes and offerings? I would never sit under a white man talking like that whether I agreed with him or not. What kind of influence has this had on Obama? No wonder his wife feels like she does about America. We need to wake up and really look at this. Do you agree?Have you changed your opinion of Obama after seeing his pastor rant and rave like a mad man?
Obama said himself that his minister is his friend and mentor. He actually consulted ';Rev'; White before he announced his candidacy and prayed with him (no one who promotes hate truly represents God, he doesn't deserve the title of Rev.) Wright's magazine, The Trumpet, has given Louis Farrakhan a humanitarian award. Obama tried to sugar coat it, he assumes the whole country is as gullible as those he's (so far) able to excite with empty words.
You are so right, no one would stand by such a hateful person unless they agreed with them. Obama is a racist - and he's a liar. Now he has his wife and supporters claiming he can ';heal souls';. No one has sounded more like the anti-Christ since Hitler.Have you changed your opinion of Obama after seeing his pastor rant and rave like a mad man?
Mmm.. I think I may just go independant.
Obama is too green and Hillary is too much of a sycophant.
At this point, we really don't need a newbie or an ***-kisser up in the White House,
A religious leader ranting and raving? NO! Really?
You have it so wrong, here read the entire thing.
I would never vote for him anyway, but to think he sat in that church for years listening to rants like that is frightening
and even scarier, everyone in the church cheering him on while he says GD America over and over, United States of KKK, that the govt invented AIDs to kill black people, etc etc
No. I know the difference between Obama and Obama's pastor. You may not have noticed, but they're actually two separate people.
You should talk! Turn on the TV any Sunday morning and you will see service after service after fanatical religious service being televised for the financial benefit of the most loud, screaming, blithering, sputtering white and black bible-belt fear-mongering preachers in the entire world! Don't talk to me about Obama's preacher. Clean up your own house.
I have never been a fan of Obama.
I live in Illinois, and from what I can tell, he hasn't done anything for us. Neither has Durbin for that matter...
Peace!
Obama is not the same man as his preacher, and you can't hold him accountable for the opinions expressed by others. I think that a good summary of his stand on his religion and the role that it would play in his presidency when he's elected can be found here:
http://godhatesobama.com/elaboration.htm鈥?/a>
I'm not worried about his preacher having an undue influence on him.
On the other hand, seeing how Hillary has comported herself during this campaign, the ugly tactics she has resorted to, and her willingness to harm her party's chances of winning the presidency has made me rethink my support of her. I support Obama, and if not him, then McCain.
No.
If you believe that Obama's pastor represents him, personally, then you're a hopeless idiot.
How would you like it if I said you were a horrible person just because your pastor said something ignorant? I'll bet you wouldn't be very happy, would you? My mother's pastor is an ignorant, sexist pig, but that doesn't make HER a bad person, either. Because your pastor =/= YOU. Nor does the pastor = the church. He's just there to talk.
Churchgoers go to church for many different reasons - for their family, for friends, for socializing with other people (Even if they don't like the pastor,) because the church staff does good things on its own, etc. And tithes and offerings, while they pay the pastor's salary, ALSO (and MOSTLY, since pastors in most churches are paid PEANUTS) pay the church's bills - because power, water, sewer, trash pickup, and building/property maintenance aren't free - and support things like community food banks, outreach programs, day cares, and other charitable programs. None of which have anything to do with the pastor.
So maybe you should not make such ignorant assumptions about a man based on something so trivially stupid. Do unto others as you would have done to you, after all.
Nope, I don't watch the news and I make my decision on who to vote for after watching the debates.laura mercier

Why are anti-Israel protests dominated by anti-Semitic ranting and raving?
For instance, in Fort Lauderdale, where a young Muslim woman chanted “back to the ovens”; or here, where a Muslim invokes the Koran (2:62-65, 5:59-60, 7:166), when telling Jews, “You are the products of monkeys, you are the product of pigs!” and another says that “Hitler didn’t do a good job” -- right before attacking the cameraman who calls him on that one.
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=46e_12312…
Is it possible that these people share the clearly stated vision of Hamas, the extermination of Jews, or do they just try to dehumanize Jews and say things like “back to the ovens” because they think they sound poetic?Why are anti-Israel protests dominated by anti-Semitic ranting and raving?
You are dealing with people who become emotionally upset when they see the soles of a shoe; don't try to reason with them, it doesn't work.Why are anti-Israel protests dominated by anti-Semitic ranting and raving?
I think it comes mainly out of frustration and anger. The Muslim (and Christian) people who have been displaced from their homeland to make room for the Jewish people in Israel are incredibly out-gunned, and unable to put up any real fight against what they see as their oppressors and invaders. While Israel was the Jewish people's homeland for a LONG time, they had been gone for a LONG time before their presence suddenly began squeezing out the then (meaning in the early-mid 20th century) native populations.
It is obviously a much more complex situation than can be ex
and just what do you think the Jews do in Israel to the Palestinians and in the U.S. when it comes to Arabs and other races that do not agree to their views. SAME thing.
It takes two to tango
I am not Pro-Israel nor will be anymore since the facts contradict to Israeli opinions. Especially, from the pictures and videos of what is happening to those Palestinians. Even when the world community is condemning Israel, they still are trying to find propaganda ways to justify it all. It's so insane.
http://www.ifamericansknew.org
The Islamists who fan the flames of hate are very similar in their views to Nazis. They go one step further however. Their refrain is 'after Saturday comes Sunday'. That means that after the Jewish people are exterminated, it is then the turn of the Christians. Yes, a very Nazi way of thinking.
These are rallies that are organized and paid for by groups that are in support of Muslim Terrorism.
Muslim Terrorism has it's roots on NAZISM, so it should not surprise us that these protesters are nothing more than anti-semitic thugs.
It is a shame, agree with above.I can't believe Hamas actually sat at the table with the Israelis in the first place to broker that truce, when they are preoccupied with ';the extermination of Jews';.
Israel is causing anti Semitism. this may come as a surprise to Israelis but deliberately killing children and pretending the ';enemy were near'; is not something real humans accept
Because anti-semitic people are sad, and since what's going on right now with Israel they try to take advantage of the fact they can protest not on zionism but the Jews.
Because it give Jew haters an excuse to come out of the closet. Which is said because it over shadows legitimate criticism of Israel.
The whole world is tired of Israelis saying that criticism of their hobby which is killing children is ';anti Semitic';
just like how ALL over europe jews are being attacked for being jewish and are having racial slurs said to them
look it up
It is a shame because the anti-Israeli protesters have a really good argument.
They don't hate Jews in Israel, they just hate Jews.

No racist comments. The Catholic Church is very multi-ethinic. In my parish, I worship alongside African-Americans, Africans, Latinos, Hispanics, Asians, Europeans, Native Americans, etc. There's no room for racism.
The only anti-government comments have been lamenting the lack of pro-life views (war, euthanasia, capital punshiment which is legal in my state, abortion).
I have never heard a specific comment made against any political candidate. The current election hasn't even been mentioned yet by our current priest, and the most the last one ever said was ';It's our duty to vote.';Catholics has the priest at your church ever ranted and raved during a sermon?

As a former Catholic I can say that NEVER did I hear a Priest rant about anything such as you have asked.
EDIT - I watched the clip, it sounds as if this preacher is not a Catholic Priest and you can hear in the background others trying to get his attention to stop. he also makes the comment that ';this priest'; as he points to the front, ';can not save you';
So that is not an example of a Catholic Priest ranting on the above mentioned list.
ASKER - I have never heard a Pastor at a non catholic church do this either. That is me personally. I would not doubt that it has happened though, there are groups that call themselves Christians who have false doctrine as well. My being a former Catholic does not mean I think every person who calls themself a Christian is in fact a Christian, just as I do not say that Catholics are not Christians, I simply do not agree with their doctrine.
once i heard ranting..... when a life long parish member was killed on the way to a peaceful (silent) protest for right to life.
The priests at my church don't rant or rave. They do not make racist or anti-government comments. They may speak about issues such as abortions and gay marriages with accordance to our religion but they don't rant and rave about it. Even the churchs I went to in Poland, they never acted like that or spoke out against the government.

I haven't gone to church for years, but I remember the priest always seemed to support the war in Vietnam. The worst ranter and raver I ever encountered was in the Unitarian Church. He wanted to lead our group of Liberal Religious Youth in a protest march at Natick Labs where my father worked.

Street Preacher disrupts Catholic Mass, ranting and raving that Catholics need to repent?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=NoEfp2eEA1c
There is the video of the man in question (that HE proudly posted), showing him ranting and raving in the middle of a Catholic Mass.
He says that this method of 'witnessing' actually works... HA!
I was curious as to everyone's opinion of this lunatic, and I wanted to know if anyone here thinks he's doing the right thing?Street Preacher disrupts Catholic Mass, ranting and raving that Catholics need to repent?
Well, he's certainly a master at doing Satan's work of sowing discord and hatred.Street Preacher disrupts Catholic Mass, ranting and raving that Catholics need to repent?
What most of you do not understand is that Catholicism is FALSE religion and is accursed by God (Gal 1:8,9)! I do not want these people to go to hell with the lying sacraments for salvation when the Bible teaches FAITH APART from works (Rom 4:5, 5:1 etc.)
Kinda like preaching to the choir, isn't it?
This is the problem with people now a days. I'm sure all he managed to do was annoy a lot of people. You said it youself, lunatc, and I just think he has mental issues. It is disrespectful to go in anybody's church, and act like an ***.
I wonder what happened after everybody stood and started singing Alleluia in praise to Jesus? Did the street preacher keep ranting or did he take credit for leading the whole congregation to the Lord or what?
He was very disrespectful and obviously clueless about Catholicism.
Such behavior is neither logical nor appropriate nor revealed to have occured in scripture
1 Corinthians 14:40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; 16 having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. (I note the meekness command here verses the behavior you describe)
Why not come on in and pray with us? I've prayed with Christians who don't particularly like Catholics - I've even prayed with those who hold strong stereotypes of ethnic Catholicism.
He was rude, and for every person he encouraged to leave, he probably encouraged 10 others to be angry. Why he would do that as the congregation was preparing to bring their hearts before the Lord, I can only guess was out of ignorance and a belief that what he was doing was far more important than how others reacted.
While we all should have a attitude of constant renewal and repentance, disrupting a religious service is not the right way to remind people of this discipline.
By the way, interrupting a religious service is against the law in most places.
With love in Christ.
I didn't see the video, but in New Orleans that behaviour would have the person arrested if it happened INSIDE the church.
(I have also seen street preachers told that they could not preach directly OUTSIDE the church WHILE mass was in progress as it was a disturbance of the peace. I actually agree with this as this does not say the person CANNOT express their opinion, but that they must respect the religion of others....)
Even if you're one of those people (and I've run across several on R%26amp;S) that believes that Catholicism isn't ';real'; Christianity, it's unbelievably distasteful.
I think it's great that he posted it, so people can let him know what an idiot he was being. Of course, I'm sure now he thinks that he's being persecuted for the Lord . . .
I am surprised that no strapping Irish lad didn't toss that lunatic out on his ear.
Satan can really make some people do things. This guy was possessed by the Devil.
goddamn it....what`s that clown doing there? someone should have beaten the hell out of him.. by the way, im an atheist..
Darn, I unplugged my speakers to vacuum.
I'm wondering why nobody escorts him out? I see 1 guy leave but why do the rest of them sit a gawk? Also, what's up with everyone doing the fundie-like arm waving at the end? What did he have a gun or something?
OK off to replug in speakers so I can hear what he says LOL
edit- OK, with speakers its much different. LOL. He should be very embarassed.
That bonehead has spouted every single argument that the Catholic Church has refuted... what a wuss...
And along with what Veritatum said, I'd be one of those ten people who would've loved to have kicked his butt, anime style!
Yours Truly,
O.W.
Would he permit me to disrupt his church's service with my witnessing to the Catholic fullness of truth and shouting over him? Do to others what you would have them do to you.
Did you watch the people as he was doing this? Only the man in red apparently got up and walked out. Evangelization convicts you to the core, and this guy was probably just sitting there in the church, going through the motions, but he was convicted in his heart. Why didn't everybody else leave? Because they knew he was right! And then at the end, they got up to praise God! Hallelujah!
I find that very heartwarming.
He's ranting incoherently, of course, but once he's out of there, they'll go back to calmly telling each other pretty much the same stuff he's shouting about. Maybe it'll make someone think.

Well, he's certainly a master at doing Satan's work of sowing discord and hatred.Street Preacher disrupts Catholic Mass, ranting and raving that Catholics need to repent?
What most of you do not understand is that Catholicism is FALSE religion and is accursed by God (Gal 1:8,9)! I do not want these people to go to hell with the lying sacraments for salvation when the Bible teaches FAITH APART from works (Rom 4:5, 5:1 etc.)

Kinda like preaching to the choir, isn't it?
This is the problem with people now a days. I'm sure all he managed to do was annoy a lot of people. You said it youself, lunatc, and I just think he has mental issues. It is disrespectful to go in anybody's church, and act like an ***.
I wonder what happened after everybody stood and started singing Alleluia in praise to Jesus? Did the street preacher keep ranting or did he take credit for leading the whole congregation to the Lord or what?
He was very disrespectful and obviously clueless about Catholicism.
Such behavior is neither logical nor appropriate nor revealed to have occured in scripture
1 Corinthians 14:40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; 16 having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. (I note the meekness command here verses the behavior you describe)
Why not come on in and pray with us? I've prayed with Christians who don't particularly like Catholics - I've even prayed with those who hold strong stereotypes of ethnic Catholicism.
He was rude, and for every person he encouraged to leave, he probably encouraged 10 others to be angry. Why he would do that as the congregation was preparing to bring their hearts before the Lord, I can only guess was out of ignorance and a belief that what he was doing was far more important than how others reacted.
While we all should have a attitude of constant renewal and repentance, disrupting a religious service is not the right way to remind people of this discipline.
By the way, interrupting a religious service is against the law in most places.
With love in Christ.
I didn't see the video, but in New Orleans that behaviour would have the person arrested if it happened INSIDE the church.
(I have also seen street preachers told that they could not preach directly OUTSIDE the church WHILE mass was in progress as it was a disturbance of the peace. I actually agree with this as this does not say the person CANNOT express their opinion, but that they must respect the religion of others....)
Even if you're one of those people (and I've run across several on R%26amp;S) that believes that Catholicism isn't ';real'; Christianity, it's unbelievably distasteful.
I think it's great that he posted it, so people can let him know what an idiot he was being. Of course, I'm sure now he thinks that he's being persecuted for the Lord . . .
I am surprised that no strapping Irish lad didn't toss that lunatic out on his ear.
Satan can really make some people do things. This guy was possessed by the Devil.
goddamn it....what`s that clown doing there? someone should have beaten the hell out of him.. by the way, im an atheist..
Darn, I unplugged my speakers to vacuum.
I'm wondering why nobody escorts him out? I see 1 guy leave but why do the rest of them sit a gawk? Also, what's up with everyone doing the fundie-like arm waving at the end? What did he have a gun or something?
OK off to replug in speakers so I can hear what he says LOL
edit- OK, with speakers its much different. LOL. He should be very embarassed.
That bonehead has spouted every single argument that the Catholic Church has refuted... what a wuss...
And along with what Veritatum said, I'd be one of those ten people who would've loved to have kicked his butt, anime style!
Yours Truly,
O.W.
Would he permit me to disrupt his church's service with my witnessing to the Catholic fullness of truth and shouting over him? Do to others what you would have them do to you.
Did you watch the people as he was doing this? Only the man in red apparently got up and walked out. Evangelization convicts you to the core, and this guy was probably just sitting there in the church, going through the motions, but he was convicted in his heart. Why didn't everybody else leave? Because they knew he was right! And then at the end, they got up to praise God! Hallelujah!
I find that very heartwarming.
He's ranting incoherently, of course, but once he's out of there, they'll go back to calmly telling each other pretty much the same stuff he's shouting about. Maybe it'll make someone think.

Ghosts? Are they real or fake? Does this mean a ghost came through me?
So some say they are real some say they are not real. . . . what do YOU think? Do you have any personal stories about ghosts encounters? Some people tell me that when you get a chill RANDOMLY it's a Ghost passing through your body,is that true? sometimes I get them even on super hot days. And is it possible they an harm you?Ghosts? Are they real or fake? Does this mean a ghost came through me?
Well Ghost Have A Since Of Energy That Powers Toward Them Connecting Them To The Real World they come by :)
Ghost CAN NOT cause any physical Harm to us.
That Chill You say Could Be A Spirit Orb A Spirit Orb Is Orb Of Invisible Energy of a Ghost. You Could Have GooseBumps From UnBalanced Tempature :D
Yes I Do Belive In Ghost. They Came for one reason and One Reason Only but that will be a secert. Not Beliving in a ghost could be like not beliving in god :(Ghosts? Are they real or fake? Does this mean a ghost came through me?
I personally believe in ghosts. After all I have heard and seen, I like to believe that paranormal activity is what explains it.
For years at our ranch we go to every year, people have claimed it was haunted. Apparently, it's on the site of a battle in the Civil War and it was an indian camp long ago. I had been told stories of my uncle getting pushed out of bed and the lights flickering on and off, but I never really believed it. They have even had strange pictures of spirit orbs from the place. But last year when I went up there with my boyfriend, he said he felt a strange presence, like we weren't alone. That night, he had a dream of a man from the Civil War who's body was never found. The next morning, my boyfriend was able to draw a detailed picture of this man and the location where he apparently died. So this year, I am going to do some ';ghost hunting'; of my own with video cameras and audio recording to try to find out for myself.
As for a ghost passing through your body? I've never heard of it put that way. What I have heard is that when a spirit is present, it absorbs energy from the atmosphere and therefore making the surrounding area cold.
In my opinion, I do believe in ghosts. It is possible that if you feel a chill that means a ghost is NEAR you. I've had 2 experiences of encounters. Once, my sister and I were watching my brother do the computer, all of a sudden I heard something very strange like a heavy dress dragging on a floor my sister looked scared and I asked her what happened, she told me that she thought she saw something upstairs like some kind of a person wearing a black long dress quickly walk pass by. I told her what I heard. My second experience was when I went upstairs to play the piano (alone) the lights flickered really quick so I ran downstairs where my sister was and asked her if she turned the lights off and she said she didn't like she was confused.
I believe in ghosts. I have not experienced a ghost passing through me but I have experienced seeing a ghost of a child in my house. Before I saw him there were a lot of old things happening, lights being turned on %26amp; off by themselves, toys being moved, etc.. I found out a young boy had died in my house about 30 years ago. So I did some investigating on what to do %26amp; I went to the area that I had seen him before %26amp; were the most activity had happened. I told him that he should go into the light that it was good, warm %26amp; welcoming in the light and that he would see all of his family there that had passed before him. After doing this there has been no more activity.
There is no evidence of ghost existence whatsoever. Some people claim they've seem em but no one can really provide any feasible evidence. I've seen some abnormal things in my life that I can not give a reasonable explanation to but nothing more. Like this one time when I was in a military hospital I saw a guy in the corridor and even talked to him later I was told that the person I'm describing died of deep wounds couple of days before that and no one could even be in the corridor that time (doors were locked). He had this cast on his left leg and I went around looking for a person with a cast in the hospital and never found one. No one had a cast on his leg in the entire hospital. That guy aslo told me that I'll get well in a month and will leave the hospital and that happened too.
i personally believe in ghosts i think i have seen 1 but im not sure for them passing thru u i think they just make the general area cold tht happens to me to and i feel freaked at like 3 in the morning which is supposedly the devil's hour but iot's up to you if you believe or not but if anyone asks me i do believe!
Ghosts make gripping reading or interesting viewing. But they are pure fiction, or the product of a fertile imagination. Many places which report having a resident ghost have a commercial interest in having one.
Notice how most tales of ghosts are hearsay. ';My dad saw one.'; or ';My friend saw one.';
*sigh* Dear god, those random chills, sweetie? That's natural human behavior for when they sense that something is about to happen, your body becomes cold to numb you so you don't feel as much pain because something rubbed you the wrong way (more than likely the air current). There's no such things as ghosts. There have NEVER been ghosts. NEVER have NEVER will.
ghost will scare but also harm if they r evil and some ghost r not some ppl say its true and some don't. well u do thing they r real cuz my friend had a ghost in her house but i didn't see. and i felt a ghost in my school once
people have their own opinions about the existances of ghosts and supernatural beings.
my uncle saw his granddad when he was going to get a glass of milk. thenn he just vanished. they probably won't hurt you unless they...idk..don't like you or you did something to them in the past that caused them pain.

Do You Need To Rant and Rave to Someone?
I do and I can't find an anonymous phone number or site that satisfies my desire to do so. So I'm gonna start one.
If you have a rant or rave that you don't want to tell anyone (cause it's just so freakin random or insane) feel free to call this number.
If you need to know more about to me, feel free to ask questions before ranting, but trust, I aint telling anyone.
Reason for doing this: Honestly, I'm crazy and I think this is a wonderful...what's that word...therapy...this would be wonderfully theraputic for me. Not only would I realize that everyone in this world has things they hate about it but I'd feel less alone in this world with my troubles.
Please don't worry about me talking unless you want me to. The only thing I want to do is know that I'm not the only one in the world who has problems! Real, everyday problems...things that just slowly tick you off till you explode.
The Topic is: Unlimited. Rant and Rave about anything that you feel you can't tell people who know you.
I got the idea from a book....but I really can't remember it right now. If I ever remember, I'll come back and tell you.
Anyway, the anonymous number is (757) 237-8071
If anyone out there wants to try it, I've got nothing to do all summer except this project so feel welcome. The name is....corney. Yeah, just call me corney or corny.
So uh, call, rant, rave, get it out of your system and feel better,Do You Need To Rant and Rave to Someone?

Loads of folk rant and rave about bigotry.........?
.............and how one team has a bigger sectarian problem than the other. Seems to me that the Yahoo Scottish Football Section is one big sectarian hell hole, and whether or not some of it is in jest, some of it is just plain downright nasty. Nice to see that the bad element is doing their best to let scottish football down, spreading the filth whilst hiding behind their wee avatars. What's the point?Loads of folk rant and rave about bigotry.........?
The entire internet is full of b*stards from all walks of life, I just identify the good people on here and only acknowledge their questions or answers. Its mostly full of men with small penises trying to get their ego's boosted by verbally abusing people they have never met before. You eventually learn to ignore.Loads of folk rant and rave about bigotry.........?
To call this section a sectarian hell hole is a bit rough, comparing a whole community to Ibrox is stereotyping, which shows you have a defeated mind by your lack of reasoning and understanding.
HAIL HAIL
yes.. you have it spot on, which is why most of us have moved to a decent forum,
the bile that is spouted daily is rude and obscene and takes away from all the good folk on here.
There is no point nor is there any point in trying to persuade bigots to mend their ways. I've had enough - I won't be back
Its the scottish football section what did ya expect
Let their brains whirr and their bellies rumble- empty vessels make more noise
ranting is not allowed here
please write a proper question
which can receive a proper answer
This could get reported for ''RANTING''
Whats the point? This section wont ever change.. always a token numpty or 3 spouting bile

Welfare Rants and Raves?
Ok i have a sister who is on like full blown welfare she gets foodstamps, healthcare, She got a down payment for her house through the state, She got 75 thousand dollars to fix up her house and to make her payments she missed, She gets diapers for free, She totally lives off the state. Her and her husband dont work and She gets 1500 dollars a week for extra expenses from the state just to go buy all the things she wants, She has 4 kids and i feel so bad for them my sister and her husband walk around in name brand clothes and their kids have all ripped up stained crap. They are pot heads and dont care about anything but weed. And here me and my husband sit on just enough money to survive working our as*s's off just to survive. And we have 3 kids and cant even get healthcare for our kids. I think its totally Bullshi* the state will help her when they dont even work and they wont even help us when we are atleast trying.Is it wrong to feel like i hate her for this? Im not jelouse?im pis*edWelfare Rants and Raves?
I can see your point their that is a lot of funding to one family they cut my stamps back off and re instate with no back pay where are y what state is doing this we can hardly get by and one of my family members they took off medical to.Welfare Rants and Raves?
You can file a complaint - only prob would be that they may investigate them for child endangerment and neglect. Trust me all states have this prob. GA is one of the worst. I had to pitch a fit with them just to get my kids on medicaid - aint even tryin 4 FS. Already know how that would turn out!
No its not wrong to feel like that, I even got a lil pissed off too just reading about all the things they get. I know she's your sister, but could you file a complain to the state? I mean if they use all our tax money to buy weed, dress themselves in name brand clothing (instead of their kids) and just live off the system, I mean its time someone put a stop to all that. No offense but what makes your sister and her husband think they deserve to get money for just sitting on their butts? It pisses me off seeing people having kid after kid and expecting the state to take care of them. Hey they didnt need any help making them, they should be able to provide for them when they're born.

Will Conservatives rant and rave when the Democrats use Reconciliation to pass Health Care?
It is bound to happen one way or the other. I would rather it happened using only Democrats since any Republican Health Plan would most likely be watered down and not good for the person nor for the program either. Reconciliation which was used numerous times by Bush including his trillion dollars tax breaks for the rich, could be and might be used to pass Health Care. Do you think that Conservatives will rant and rave. Are Americans now immune to the ranting and raving from the Right after seeing Tea parties for non-existent tax hikes, birthers and others fringe loon groups? Should Democrats just consider the rants and complaints as also from the loons?Will Conservatives rant and rave when the Democrats use Reconciliation to pass Health Care?
You hit it on the head---most people will just see it as yet another crazy rant from the Right. At every turn they are ranting about things from his birth certificate to Michelle Obamas arms and now they want to be taken seriously--Afraid NOT. I for one do not want Republicans hands in this bill either, just look what they did for us already!Will Conservatives rant and rave when the Democrats use Reconciliation to pass Health Care?
What law would they ';change'; to get obama care??
You aren't getting how it works....try reading up.
reconciliation bill - A bill containing changes in law recommended pursuant to reconciliation instructions in a budget resolution.
Reconciliation process - A process established in the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 by which Congress changes existing laws to conform tax and spending levels to the levels set in a budget resolution. Changes recommended by committees pursuant to a reconciliation instruction are incorporated into a reconciliation measure.
Basically you can't you Reconciliation to create a brand new law. You are just not understanding the process.
I would say so, because tonight they seem obsessed with Rush. The intelligence from the right wingnuts is so overwhelming I think they are in love with the guy. Health care or insurance reform will pass even though the right wingnuts know a black man will be a hero and it stokes their racist genes.
Yeah, they should go ahead and try to pass this legislation despite the fact that the majority of the public doesn't want it. That will really help Republicans in 2010 and 2012.
Of course. They are already claiming its ';unconstitutional';...despite the GOPs regular use of it during the 2000 - 2006 majority.
All they can do is rant and rave they have no power.
I PRAY dems ram health care through without any Republican help. That way, they will take the full blame.
Of course they will. The question will be Who Cares? Who listens to them, only other crazy Right wingers and I really think that is only a small fraction of the country. It has a much better chance of running successfully with only Democrats writing it as they support it. If Republicans help write the bill it will only be to make it not work and to water it down as you said. Why would We want that, since we won the election we have no need for them and that is how this country has run for the last 200 years. Winners write Bills and losers cry foul. Bipartisanship is just a theory for losers.
Can I just ask a quick question, here? If this Democratic health care reform legislation is so vital to our economy, and people are dying slow, agonizing deaths for lack of insurance, and the Democrats have a majority in Congress, then why don't they just PASS THE STUPID THING? I thought that was the whole point of having a majority. You know, ';We won, you lost, get over it';, as you Pseudo-Libs on here are so fond of saying. So what's the holdup? Some of the Dems finally recognizing this thing as right out of the Big Book Of Really Crappy Ideas?
Any Democratic healthcare plan would be a disaster. If you support it you might as well send me $10 to tell you why it is bad. That is how unintelligent you would have to be to side with it. Trust me, I work in the healthcare industry at the top level. People are silly to think that healthcare reform will penalize or hurt the evil insurance companies....hehehe. That is all just a scam. The insurance companies and the government or in bed together. All you are doing is greenlighting the government into spending more of your hard earned money and contracting it (or donating it) to those same big bad insurance companies. Its guaranteed revenue. They want nothing better than for our system to change. They will make a bigger killing than they already are and you helped em. Its called the old switcheroo.

Can I rant and rave for a moment?
Let's see if I can do this respectfully... First of all, nobody is perfect. Secondly, nobody can effectively please everybody. Thirdly, good news doesn't sell, so the media finds a needle of bad news in haystacks of good, then exploits it to make a profit. They make their money by making people look bad. Fourth, the more important a person is, the more the media belittles him. This is known as ';Short Man's Syndrome'; or ';Napoleon Complex.'; Fifth, the general populus is ignorant and stupid, believing anything and everything the media tells them, whether consciously or otherwise. Now here's what I'm getting at. Are you a part of the ';general populus'; that bases its opinions of the president and the war in Iraq on what the news and media tell you?Can I rant and rave for a moment?
The media is what it is, it circulates information. Seen that they are circulated by humans, the information is bound to be biased in some way - incidental or deliberate. To answer your first question, people don't need to told that the economy is doing badly it is all around us. When reporters and editors post their opinions people have an option to accept them or reject it. I believe most people weigh the information given and decide whether it makes sense.
Second, after 9/11 Bush had more than just those two options. He could have WAITED, gathered more information, rallied the support of the world's powers, outline a detailed and specific strike on the real enemies, strike (if necessary) and pull out after a specific timeline.
EDIT: People don't disagree against the war on terror. The threat is real and thats why he got re-elected. What happened is that he haphazardly sent thousands of troops to the middle east with the hopes that America superior military strength will FIX the situation. Most of the troops efforts are misdirected and are not yielding enough results.
Face it, this war is based on false allegations and inaccurate premises. The entire country and the entire world is suffering from it.Can I rant and rave for a moment?
';Fifth, the general populus is ignorant and stupid, believing anything and everything the media tells them, whether consciously or otherwise.';
So, are you part of the moronic populus that believes that whatever the president does is right just because he is the president? Getting to that position, and Bush is an excellecnt example of this, does not take a brainiac.
Speaking of letting toerrorists get away with things, where is bin Laden these days???
EDIT: Was that comment directed at me? Because I didn't bring up the troops. Nice try at baiting, though!
EDIT: It's hard to be respectful when I speak better publicly, and the man reminds of the eternal frat boy!!
It is clear that you are one of the very few who do not realize that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11; Saddam Hussein was not hobnobbing with Al Queda, and by leaving Afghanistan, we have allowed the Taliban and Al Queda to return and flourish.
I do not base my opinions upon what the ';news and media'; tell me, but there are writers and people whom I respect and when they speak, I listen. Seymour Hersh is an example. There are others.
I am also financially astute enough to know that when a very rich country has spent all of its reserves and is borrowing from other countries, it has suffered from a form of looting. I have also talked to people in the military who tell me of the waste going on in Iraq.
You have a lofty attitude, as though you know the answers, while you consider others to be simply ignorant and stupid, because their opinions differ from your own. I would say that you sound just like a Republican, glued to the Limbaugh program, repeating his views.
My opinion of the President is that he is so low a snake would tower over him. I don't like liars and I don't like people who ignore the poor while embellishing the rich. What your opinion might be is no concern of mine. I would suggest you read more.
By the way, Clinton is a tall man, yet the Republicans belittled him constantly. What does this do to the Napolean Complex?
We all know the economy is doing badly. And now almost every candidate wants to initiate a government health care plan that will cost billions , just as this war has cost billions... and we're still at it. And where is all this money coming from... middle class American tax payers, of which I am one.
One of Bush's biggest mistakes was surrounding himself with poor advisors. When Congress demanded to know just what in the hell was really going on in Iraq, top generals were called in. They all said Rumsfeld's plan was not working , that he would not listen to them,and the military badly needed new direction. That has finally happened, but look at how many Americans and Iraqi citizens died in the meantime.
There has been much financial waste and the terrible loss of human life simply because some hard heads thought they had the answers to everything, in spite of what military strategists told them. That reminds me of Hillary's failed health care plan in the 90's, where she had all the answers without consulting people in the medical field.
I get my news online and from current event and political magazines. Also, other countries often have a better take on what's hapoening so I go there for unbiased and fresh opinions.
Strong United Nations if it fought could be criticised as well. The United Nations has not been strong enough to live up to purpose under any President except during Korean War and people could agree or disagree about that. Have suggestion if not offensive. Suppose each U.S. citizen were to send the amount of money the citizen would spend on a burgher at a fast food place to U.N. instead of buying the burgher. What if U.S. citizens were to spend only on U.N. instead of on Entertainment ,Celebrity Magazines news even. The Best News a person could hear was The U.N.works. Citizens could also send their money which would go to taxes to U.N.and ask The U.N. to install Solar Power Arrays to end dispute about Human Accelerated Global Warming. Should not base opinions of effectiveness of U.N.on news either and not. Figure with more support of citizens can become very strong.
Let's see.A Saudi Arabian,(Bin Laden),orders an attack on the US.Bush then orders an attack on Iraq,whose President is also an enemy of Bin Laden.Am i missing something?The fact is,Bush lied %26amp; twisted Intelligence reports to fit in with his desire to grab Iraqi oil for his paymasters in big business.It does not matter to him that so many US troops were killed %26amp; maimed,after all,they were heroes.They died for their country,did'nt they?You talk about it not being the President's job to be on the battle-field.When Bush had the chance to fight for his country,he dodged it,coward that he is.
great reading. I agree with your opinions and hope this enlightens others who honestly don't understand the situation. I know we don't see the whole picture at times, as it is not for us to see. The president should always have the support and respect from his country NO MATTER WHAT, especially in times of war and trouble. He has the hardest job in the world and that is a fact. Not many want it. I am a patriot and hate to think about the people in this country who speak ill of it, but choose to stay here and live in freedom. Deep down, everyone knows the luxuries and benefits of being born here. I know I do.

Is the Pope鈥檚 latest message just another rant and rave?
Pope Benedict XVI rebuked his fellow Germans and other Western societies this Sunday, saying they often shut their ears to the Christian message. ';Put simply, we are no longer able to hear God 鈥?there are too many different frequencies filling our ears.';
Is the Pope just saying his version of organised religion (Christianity) is the right one, and all of the other religions (frequencies) have got it wrong?Is the Pope鈥檚 latest message just another rant and rave?
Sure seems like it. But who listens to the pope?Is the Pope鈥檚 latest message just another rant and rave?
The Pope held a rave? Sheesh...that's the second one I've missed.
The pope just stated the obvious!
Look on this board!
The Pope never rants. He is highly intelligent and well-educated and says exactly what needs to be said. Obviously he believes that Catholicism is right or he wouldn't be Pope, just as I believe it is right or I wouldn't be Catholic.
I trust the Holy Father Pope Benedict.
When God quietly speaks, some people are too busy sinning to hear what he has to say.
God bless his Pope.
It's good to ask questions where they will return the answers you want. Too bad you are so ignorant and misinformed. I doubt he is say that at all. He is saying there are too many distractions from the religious way.
Just because you do not agree with him does not always make him wrong. It is like the socially retarded geeks that blame Bush for everything.
He means what he says. We have tuned God out overall and need to learn to listen to Him. ';Be still and know..';
Its all about MONEY!
The Vatican ana the poop need more customers!
probably all want to be seen as leaders

I asked a question earlier about why Atheists do not rant and rave about Satanists?
and Pagans and they said they didn't try to shove their views down their throats on this site all the time well, why are they on this site then? I mean isn't that like a person going into a yard that is clearly posted ';Beware of Dog'; and then complaining because they were bit.I asked a question earlier about why Atheists do not rant and rave about Satanists?
People don't rant on satanists, witches, etc because they don't fear them and what they stand for like they do the Christian's God. They know that He is watching them and it makes them feel guilty and are filled with raw hate.I asked a question earlier about why Atheists do not rant and rave about Satanists?
Probably not to have other views shoved down their throats while they're at home, work or school. Most likely they are here because they want to be. Why are there so many Christians here? Shouldn't they be in church? Or out knocking on doors? Or relieving the suffering and poverty in the world? And why are the pagans here? Shouldn't they be drawing circles or something? Picking herbs? Purifying something? If all the various religious groups were doing what they are 'supposed' to be doing, this place would be empty except for Atheists, a few assorted Eastern religions and Asatruar.
~Morg~
You're looking at it wrong. They like hearing about religious ideas, just not getting threatened or have it pushed on them. We could really use this forum for tolerance if people didn't do those things.
I think a lot of people have become more tolarant and enlightened on what Pagans and Satanists think because of the way they act on here as opposed to some more forceful religions.
Many of them come on here and post because they are ';trolling';.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_tr鈥?/a>
I've never had an Atheist attack me and I can tell you why: because I don't tell them they have to believe as I do. I don't threaten them with hellfire, I don't try to change the laws of the land to fit my religion, I don't attack science, etc...
I get along quite well with Atheists in fact.
Why am I on this site? Because its fun, I enjoy answering questions, and I have made some good friends on here.
Nice, job comparing yourself to a rabid dog though Midge. ;-)
shut up christian
No, no, dear You misunderstand. We don't mind them expressing their views on Yahoo at all. We are strong proponents of the freedoms of speech and religion. We object to Christians forcing their beliefs on others by passing laws which conform to their beliefs, thus forcing their beliefs down others' throats. We also understand that a minority of Christians try to do this. It's just that that minority is so darn noisy!
because they don't. They also don't try to invade science classes with creationist nonsense. They don't have a history of crusades, conquistadores and inquisition, in fact, they were usually on the short end of the stick in those times.
This site isn't YOURS. It doesn't belong to the religious and spiritual. There is no sign on the R%26amp;S section that says ';beware of Christians'; because this isn't your yard to defend.
because satanists dont actually believe in satan
Midge sweetie
you are setting yourself up here with these questions
you know the difference yourself
Christians are told to spread the word and i totally understand that you feel the need to in compliance with your religion
but people have heard it before , and they can go to church if they wish to hear it again
they dont want a sermon here
and the reason atheists dont rant and rave about Satanists and Pagans has already been mentioned by others
Satanists and Pagans dont preach , they answer questions if asked about their religion
and they dont condemn
and they dont have a list of people that are '; sinners ';
the same as you will find they dont rant and rave about Buddhists and Hindus and many other tolerant religions
and it doesnt mean they agree or accept the idea of the other religions more than Christianity ... they dont believe in God , your God or any other God
so maybe a new sign is whats needed in that backyard Midge
'; Beware of poodle it may lick you ';
This site wasn't meant for people to try to convert people to their religion. Nor was this site meant to preach and quote your religious scriptures towards people. This site was meant for people to learn and gain some insight into different people and religions and religious practices and beliefs.
Your metaphor makes no sense.
Satanists don't believe in Satan.
Keeping your dog under control is your responsibility in a public area. This is a public area. You don't have the right to let your nasty little mutt off his leash just because you think you own the area.
It isn't here that is a problem They don't come knocking on my door and most importantly they don't try to push their faerie tales into science class, on to my money, into the Pledge and about a million other ways that Christians insist on doing. You know, if Christians didn't do these things, I probably wouldn't hang out here.
People don't rant on satanists, witches, etc because they don't fear them and what they stand for like they do the Christian's God. They know that He is watching them and it makes them feel guilty and are filled with raw hate.I asked a question earlier about why Atheists do not rant and rave about Satanists?

No, no, dear You misunderstand. We don't mind them expressing their views on Yahoo at all. We are strong proponents of the freedoms of speech and religion. We object to Christians forcing their beliefs on others by passing laws which conform to their beliefs, thus forcing their beliefs down others' throats. We also understand that a minority of Christians try to do this. It's just that that minority is so darn noisy!
because they don't. They also don't try to invade science classes with creationist nonsense. They don't have a history of crusades, conquistadores and inquisition, in fact, they were usually on the short end of the stick in those times.
This site isn't YOURS. It doesn't belong to the religious and spiritual. There is no sign on the R%26amp;S section that says ';beware of Christians'; because this isn't your yard to defend.
because satanists dont actually believe in satan
Midge sweetie
you are setting yourself up here with these questions
you know the difference yourself
Christians are told to spread the word and i totally understand that you feel the need to in compliance with your religion
but people have heard it before , and they can go to church if they wish to hear it again
they dont want a sermon here
and the reason atheists dont rant and rave about Satanists and Pagans has already been mentioned by others
Satanists and Pagans dont preach , they answer questions if asked about their religion
and they dont condemn
and they dont have a list of people that are '; sinners ';
the same as you will find they dont rant and rave about Buddhists and Hindus and many other tolerant religions
and it doesnt mean they agree or accept the idea of the other religions more than Christianity ... they dont believe in God , your God or any other God
so maybe a new sign is whats needed in that backyard Midge
'; Beware of poodle it may lick you ';
This site wasn't meant for people to try to convert people to their religion. Nor was this site meant to preach and quote your religious scriptures towards people. This site was meant for people to learn and gain some insight into different people and religions and religious practices and beliefs.
Your metaphor makes no sense.
Satanists don't believe in Satan.
Keeping your dog under control is your responsibility in a public area. This is a public area. You don't have the right to let your nasty little mutt off his leash just because you think you own the area.
It isn't here that is a problem They don't come knocking on my door and most importantly they don't try to push their faerie tales into science class, on to my money, into the Pledge and about a million other ways that Christians insist on doing. You know, if Christians didn't do these things, I probably wouldn't hang out here.
Another rant and rave: were you severly disappointed in the poor officiating last night??
i thought umpires were trying to get rid of the ';the ball beating the runner to the base'; rules
ian kinsler was safe in his steal of second last night. but since the ball beat him there and tejada sold the tag (which he completely missed) kinsler was called out. next pitch sizemore slaps a single up the middle, kinsler should have scored. game over
later in the game. mclouth's great throw home and great scoop by russel martin. put the tag down after novarro's foot touched the base. technically safe, but the ball beat him home. game shouldve been over
im sad that umps still go by this mental rule..what do you think??Another rant and rave: were you severly disappointed in the poor officiating last night??
You really do make a good point but I am certain the umpires want to make the right call. Sometimes a play is so close that it is difficult to make the correct call when watching a replay several times. However, I do agree with you that the umpires tend to give added importance to the ball beating the runner to the base on those really difficult calls.Another rant and rave: were you severly disappointed in the poor officiating last night??
This is what instant replay can do in the future, but I fear that there is going to be a time where every single bang-bang play is going to be reviewed, McClouth's throw at home did beat him home, but the tag was clearly made before his feet touched the bag. No umpire is perfect,in fact no one's perfect and the reason why the umpires go by the ball beat him home is because most of the time he's out except for the sacrifice fly that scored Michael Young, that ball beat him to the plate but the tag was late. Young was clearly safe though Navarro on replay was out.
dude thats not bad for umpires there close plays and close calls.
It was a good game umprinig. 2 plays that could of gone either way.
the only way you notice if there was no tag by seond basemne was the replay fox did. and slow moiton.
And how many replays did you have to see before you realized the umps might have missed the call? You have to remember they have to make these calls in a split second and don't have the advanate of seeing it in slow motion from 5 different camera angles.
Can someone enlighten me on why people are so worked up about the All-Star Game? It is an exhibition played after 60 percent of the season to reward fan favorites and a few positive stories to make us al feel good.
Its unfortunate, yes, but it is part of the game and we must accept it. Both sides had their miscalls by the umps, and it sucks, but there is nothing that can be done about it unfortunately
the nl got a load of bad calls too and the home plates strike zone seemed about a foot wide
I disagree. I think the officiating was pretty good last night.
You have to cut the umps some slack. The umps r looking at this at real time...They dont have instant replay like we do here at home.
You forgot the NL side though, I think Pujols beat the tag too.
i thought the ump behind home was bad...he kept calling obvious balls strikes
HMM... NOPE
very true.we could have been outta there two hours earlie but no had to keep going

Why is it that the majority of the people who call you dear or honey, continue to rant and rave at you?
to totally make a lie out of the endearment?Why is it that the majority of the people who call you dear or honey, continue to rant and rave at you?
Listen here dear, how dare you ask such a question! Who do you think you are? You think you're better than me? I'll have you know that in my town I am referred to as the village idgit. Now I don't know what that means but I'm sure its something positive. So listen here honey, don't you speak to me with such a condescending attitude you understand dear!!Why is it that the majority of the people who call you dear or honey, continue to rant and rave at you?
It's all in the delivery, sweetie. :-)
Those 2 words are reserved for my wife......
Come to think of it....I only call my wife by her first name when we argue.
Isn't that strange?
Because, my dear, it's more civilized than saying ';look b*tch...';
because they are condescending you ...
I call everyone baby cakes
I have two endearments reserved for when I'm being mean. I just love irony...=0)
It's sarcasm, hun.
:D and a fine example of it!
because they are patronizing you.
I'm partial to using ';Skippy'; when I'm feeling particularly irritated and sarcastic. I've also used ';Sparky'; and plenty of other little gems.
I'm in showbiz, dear heart, where calling a woman 'darling' and a man by a special invented name--I usually pick 'bold warrior' for no particular reason--is entrenched in my profession. Honestly, I'm not stopping. Sorry if it tears you up, sweetheart.

Rant and Rave - Want to walk out on the Job?
So its Saturday and I'm at work. I've already put in 60 hours this week. It seems like there is never light at the end of the tunnel. I hate my job. I hate my boss. I have excema problems because of the stress. I just finished college so I have a degree. Thing is I make good money here. I've been looking for another job but they dont pay the same. The company I work for is growing very fast so there is alot of growing pains that come along with a place like this. BUt there are also lots of opportunities for growth that I wish I wouldnt have to give up. My boss gives a lot of empty promises. I just feel like I hate coming in. I really do. Job makes me feel stupip. Today I feel like I just want to pack my things and leave a resignation on her desk. I dont want to give up but I hate it here. Any advice? I have money saved up and my parents are very supportive so not having money to pay bills is not an issue. I just dont know how I would explain walking out of the job to a future employer.Rant and Rave - Want to walk out on the Job?
If you're that unhappy, you need to quit. There is no reason to be that miserable in a place where you spend such a large chunk of your day-to-day life. Workplace stress can be extremely detrimental to your health (physical, mental and emotional) and can have negative effects on your non-work life (relationships, etc.) No amount of money is worth that. Not only that, but you're doing the company you work for huge disservice, because your unhappiness will show in your attitude and performance. If you just got out of college, then this job is kind of like a rite of passage---everyone has a job they hate and a boss they would rather piss on than work for, it's a part of life. And now that you've reached your breaking point, get ready to close the door and grow from the experience, because now you have a better understanding of what kind of job/boss you want and what you are not willing to settle for again. Find out what truly makes you happy, and the money will follow.
That being said, don't quit in haste! That will only hurt your professional reputation, not your company or boss's. Start looking for another job NOW and as soon as you can, give the standard two weeks. Then on your last day, pour a can of coke into your boss's hard drive, put saran wrap over the toilets in the rest room, and get the hell out of dodge.Rant and Rave - Want to walk out on the Job?
Good luck!!!!
Oh how I understand where your coming from. I'm in the same boat you are. I wouldn't quit your job until you have another one though. I thought about up and quitting myself acouple times and in the long run it will hurt you. Just do what I do, keep looking for another job and when work starts to get to you just remind yourself your in process of moving on to bigger better things. I know you probably heard this a million times but money isn't everything. What good is having money when your too stressed and sick to enjoy it?
I understand where your coming from about ranting and raving. Its better you get it out of your system this way as oppose as you going off at your job and getting fired. Go talk to a friend and do something you enjoy. Everything will work out fine.

Hubby ranting and raving; said horrible things about me to his sister. Should i go to the big party?
He was drinking. He called his sister. ranting and raving; saying that i hated his family. (which is by the way totally untrue).
abjectly apologetic this am. he said he's ruining his life with alcohol. that none of that was true. he will likely call his sister to deny everything and blame it on drink.
and by the way, his sister kept drawing out and asking more details and extending the horrible conversation.
i'm sure at least 100 relatives think that he's a suffering husband right now and that i am a major *itch.
should i go to the big party up North in 3 weeks for his mom?
should i attend the party? it will be acutely uncomfortable
should i go and pretend and ignore the hating stares? what i really want to do is just stay home.
he can go by himself; take the kids w/him. (we all have airline tickets).
i just want to crawl under a rock.
no amount of phone calls will correct this problem.
i don't need rehab or divorce advice.
and his family doesn't even know he drinks.
should i go? i'm already having health probs and this was just 10 hours ago.
thanksHubby ranting and raving; said horrible things about me to his sister. Should i go to the big party?
I think you shoud be the bigger person and go. You have the tickets and it sounds like something that's been planned for a while.
If you don't show up, it may give the impression that what your husband said is true.
Your husband caused this mess and he should be the one feeling guilty and uncomfortable, not you. He owes YOU a big, fat apology and to stay away from the phone next time he's feeling tipsy!!Hubby ranting and raving; said horrible things about me to his sister. Should i go to the big party?
Don't go to the gathering, if he complains at you it's tough he brought it on himself. He can also explain to his family when he is there why you decided not to attend, which means they will also be aware of his drinking. However I should think his sister knew he was drunk when she was on the phone to him.
You need to have him straighten this out right away.
And you should definitely go to the party. You obviously don't hate his family, but staying home might make them think you do. You have no reason to hate them, and therefore no reason to stay home from the party. Go along to the party and show his family that you like them all.
You could go if he announces that he has a drinking problem and agrees to stop drinking. Leave if he starts drinking. Tell him that you also want him to call him mom and sister and tell them that he will stop drinking as a result. I suspect that you didn't want to go to the party to begin with.
i would not go because I am a mexican with a bad temper. I have a big mouth and get into a fight and don't want to go to the pokey. I was in the pokey in the past so no fights. I would go out with the girlfriends and get a hotel until he calms down and if he fights go to court and get a protective order.
Tell his family he drinks when he calls them complaining about you. Also tell them you are having some health problems and can't go this time. He sounds like a immature jerk to be doing this while you are ill. Pray about it as well. I am sorry for you and hope this helps.
I would not go...he said these harsh things now let him fix it! why would you be made to feel uncomfortable? if someone is going to think ill of you nothing you do or say is going to change that.
I would send a letter to his mother and let her know that her son has a severe drinking problem.
Let her know that his telephone call to his sister was a lie and that he made this call while intoxicated.
Tell her that at this time you will not be attending the party due to the embarrassment of her son's behavior and that nothing is personal toward her or the family.
I would let my husband know that before you ever take a trip to visit with his family he needs to first start attending AA and publicly admit his problem and apologize what he said about you to them.
If you do not want to go I would not go and put myself through anymore further stress than you have already tolerated.
Communication between families should take place--his family is definitely being fed misinformation (untruths). They do need to know that he has a drinking problem--but you will have to remember. That is HIS family and they will always see HIS side.
Dont go to the party--just say things are not good not and need a cooling down period. Let him go with the kids. You will not be treated well if you go and you dont need that.
You might have to distance yourself from his family for a period of time. Let him see his family and let the kids go but insist that they do not try to poison the kids against you.
You definitely need help. Find counseling, find wise advice and cousel---and go from there.
My advice.
1. Can you guys leave a day early and go and talk to his parents. He needs to tell them that he has a drinking problem. Until that is uncovered it will never be good for you.
2. Go and after he has talked to his parents you need to sit down and talk with his sister and mom, etc.... See what you can all do too help him and get everything out int he open.
3. Have you ever gotten along with his family? If so it will be easier for you, if not you sure do have a tough battle in front of you.
4. Sitting at home is the easy way out and will just make it look like you are the person yoru husband claimed you were last night. It will suck Veyr very much I I think you shoudl go. Be the Real geniune you the best you know how. Don;t over do it as you don;t want to look fake, but I really think you should go.
Here's the thing-if you don't go, you making it look like what he said about you is true. I have kinda the same problem w/ my in-laws and I go to their house on holidays and I smile and act nice as can be. It sounds like your husband is a real prick when he drinks. If you do decide to go make damn sure he tells everyone that he was just being an a$#.
Why don't you need rehab or divorce advice? I am the child of an alcoholic. Do you know what this will do to your children? We come from a middle class family and I do okay, although I have SEVERE anxiety problems, but my baby sister is a drug dealer. Do you want your kids to turn out like that? Why don't you want your husband to get help? I hope to God you don't let him take the kids with him. Listen, would you hire a babysitter who drank while she watched your kids? Then why would you let your husband care for them in his state?
I know about this one because drinking has got me in a situation like this. The truth is he probably does feel genuinely bad about upsetting you. It works like this, you start of drinking thinking, hey I can keep this under control, then every single time, the liquor proves it is a bigger man than you to control it.
What happens is it puts pressure on the brain and all sorts of things come out. The thinking can be totally different. I wouldnt worry about what the sister thinks. The truth is she was only trying to be helpful to him because she is his sibling.
So, regardless of what you think, the problem is not u, not the family, not what was said, but it was the liquor.
So, what you need to do is get him to agree with some rules. When he buys some liquor, before he ever takes a drink, measure off how much he can have, then hide the rest. If he cant do that, then he just has to stop period, no more liquor allowed in the house.
Also, have him go without for a couple weeks. If he starts shaking or getting what they call the DTs , you will need to get him to an emergency room, this is life threatening. They will have to detox him.
When u try to help him with the situation be kind and intelligible about it. Get some articles about DTs and maybe he will learn to have a healthy fear of what may be down the road if he doesnt keep it under control.
Then, when you meet the family, just let him explain it was his drinking.
This is goin on with me, and I got a little scared, so I cared more about my relationship, that I decided to lay off the drinking. I didnt do it because I was miserable, I did it cos I was worn out after working all week, an my back, muscles and stuff were aching a little, an I had a lotta thoughts, so it was just a way to unwind and relax. The idea was to relax an get a fresh perspective. The problem was when the medicine started causing problems on its own.
It could be he is just wound up and stressed. I think a hot tub spa could serve the same purpose. So, agree to control how much he can have, social drinking in moderation, then maybe u two buy a hottub spa for christmas.
abjectly apologetic this am. he said he's ruining his life with alcohol. that none of that was true. he will likely call his sister to deny everything and blame it on drink.
and by the way, his sister kept drawing out and asking more details and extending the horrible conversation.

So, what you need to do is get him to agree with some rules. When he buys some liquor, before he ever takes a drink, measure off how much he can have, then hide the rest. If he cant do that, then he just has to stop period, no more liquor allowed in the house.
Also, have him go without for a couple weeks. If he starts shaking or getting what they call the DTs , you will need to get him to an emergency room, this is life threatening. They will have to detox him.
When u try to help him with the situation be kind and intelligible about it. Get some articles about DTs and maybe he will learn to have a healthy fear of what may be down the road if he doesnt keep it under control.
Then, when you meet the family, just let him explain it was his drinking.
This is goin on with me, and I got a little scared, so I cared more about my relationship, that I decided to lay off the drinking. I didnt do it because I was miserable, I did it cos I was worn out after working all week, an my back, muscles and stuff were aching a little, an I had a lotta thoughts, so it was just a way to unwind and relax. The idea was to relax an get a fresh perspective. The problem was when the medicine started causing problems on its own.
It could be he is just wound up and stressed. I think a hot tub spa could serve the same purpose. So, agree to control how much he can have, social drinking in moderation, then maybe u two buy a hottub spa for christmas.
Ranting and Raving...?
Here is an email I was going to send my wife because I am irritated with the way things have been going lately...What do you think?
I hope you slept well. You were knocked out. I don't think you moved around much. You slept how I envisioned you slept with Brent in the bed, tucked to one side and not moving the whole night cuz you hated him. So I guess what you said rings true...I am making you hate your life. You wanna know why I am in a sh***y mood. I am f***ing p****d at the fact that you weren't going to tell me that you slept with Justin. Had I of not made that comment, I never would have figured it out. That is what p***es me off more than anything is you hiding sh*t from me. I am more revealing than I have ever been in any relationship and you say you want open and honest communication but at the same time you hide sh*t from me. You get p***ed when I talk to L and S and H, yet you talk to exs and then hide that sh*t from me. Why am I so insecure...cuz you make me that way!! I mean why do you feel the need to keep you ex (boyfriend) informed of Ts life? T doesn't even remember who he is. What are you going to do when he shows up and T is like who is that? Are you going to tell him that it was the guy you were with when he was bron til the time he was 7 months old. T isn't going to care. And if what you say is true about him treating you like crap and he was more involved in his job than he was you and T, then why would you wanna associate with someone like that. I guess until you realize there should only be one man in your life (other than Ts birth father) then I have nothing to say to you. I am tired of coming in second to every guy you have slept with/dated/lived with/whatever. And tell people you are married for crying out loud. The guys wanting to hook up and stuff...tell them you are married and then maybe they wouldnt be blowing you up. I am sick of this crap. I feel like all I am is someone to cook, clean and help with T. You never want sex. I try and try and try to make love and you close the door. So it makes me wonder where you are getting it or do you just handle your business yourself like I do every single day in the shower. You hate your life? You don't have to work, you get to raise your child yourself during the day, I do ALL of the housework...when was the last time you did laundry (not since before I moved in)...you have it pretty welll made! It is I that hates my life!!Ranting and Raving...?
Hopefully just writing this made you feel a little better. But I want you to read it again and see something. All these problems you list, all this drama in your lives and nothing about how to solve any of them. If your lives together are really this bad, you should have ended with something to the effect of I will be moving out next week, not ';I hate my life';. If you truly hate your life as it is, change it.Ranting and Raving...?
First of all, she isn't going to read it because there are no paragraph indentations. Clean it up a bit and she might get through it.
Secondly, she must really be unhappy with you to have cheated on you. Fix the problems or divorce. Don't make yourself crazy. I will give her a little credit with her not telling you about the affair...Maybe she does care enough about you that she didn't want to hurt you by telling you.

Ever hear someone say ';Praise Jesus'; as they are ranting and raving.?
I have seen someone yelling and screaming at someone and then say ';Praise Jesus';. Why do some people do this?Ever hear someone say ';Praise Jesus'; as they are ranting and raving.?
Because they were raised by parents who ranted and raved and then screamed ';Praise Jesus.'; They don't know why they do it, it's just something they do. People are creatures of habit.Ever hear someone say ';Praise Jesus'; as they are ranting and raving.?
I have never seen this.
YES! and to give praise to jesus.
My grannie did that as she was touched by the holy spirit
Not that term...but I have heard a lot of, ';as God is my witness!'; when ranting and raving.
They get each other worked up into a religious fervour and that is the climax....
.
That phrase pops up everywhere. I saw a girl shout it in the middle of a porno once. No joke. lol Got it saved on my home PC and categorized under ';educational videos';.
I've always wondered the same thing. It seems to me that harboring that much anger and rage isn't very Christian-like behavior.

Do you need to rant and rave?
If so, I'll lend an ear.Do you need to rant and rave?
YES! i swear this question was made for me..
i made huge mistakes tonight. I invited these guys over who are really sketchy and i who don't know well. there kind of hippy-drug-ish guys. keep in mind im in high school and only a junior. they go to a different school so we know nothing about them. We told them to come to our house tonight (but we really didn't actually wanna hang out) so we left a note on our door saying we were at the neighbors. So they went, came back, we answered and let them in. They were mad, so we were going to go for a ';walk'; but we never went outside so they came back in and went to our bonus room and touched and messed with everything just to be asses. Then they left there facebook account on by accident when we kicked them out. So we completely messed it up.
You can tell there pissed and probably never going to talk to us agian, but that was our goal.
haha like my rant???Do you need to rant and rave?
No, I exhausted myself doing that yesterday. Thanks though.
Nope...just lots of peaceful warm thoughts.......have a good night!
No I don't.

Will you just get over all your Jesus Freak ranting and raving and go to bed please?
But please say this little prayer before you go night night....
Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.Will you just get over all your Jesus Freak ranting and raving and go to bed please?
well said!Will you just get over all your Jesus Freak ranting and raving and go to bed please?
Ok, I don't get this. It sounded like you were an athiest when you said ';get over your Jesus Freak etc...'; But, when I read the prayer, you got me confused. So, what is the problem? I pray all the time, and there's nothing wrong with that. So, can you tell me, what you are saying?
You know something little one.
Our creator will tell you to get up and do something with your life instead of going to bed.
Why waste your life in coming and passing by serving no good purpose for the good of mankind on planet earth.
So go out into the real world and see what's need to be done and reach out and extend a helping hand rather spending it on sleeping on it.
AAMEN, Amud fum blin, AMEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Ok. Good night. God bless.
Now I take many pills
to get rid of all my trouble and ills.
My doctor said I will sleep well,
now if only I can hear that stupid morning bell.
I ask the Lord to give me good dreams
and blast his followers with laser beams....
Good night and God bless you
luv B
no thanks. i usually listen to music until i fal asleep.
and yes....get a life...
Get a life.
You have a choice what to read...and when to go to bed.
Whose side are you on?

Why do people who refuse the protection of the Lord, rant and rave that life is unfair to them?
because they have nonstop problems, but, when you suggest they turn to God they get highly upset and say they don't need him?Why do people who refuse the protection of the Lord, rant and rave that life is unfair to them?
i think it is because they have trouble understanding/believing that grace is easy to achieve. God is just trying to get their attentionWhy do people who refuse the protection of the Lord, rant and rave that life is unfair to them?
Who are these people of whom you speak? You make a sweeping generalization and provide no sources to back up your claim of ';ranting and raving'; and ';nonstop problems'; and then expect everyone to just accept what you are saying as truth. Here's a clue: Your opinions of things are not facts. They are just your opinions. I don't accept your opinion and I think you are just another arrogant, condescending Christian.
You bible thumpers ask this question all of the time, but you never provide any concrete evidence to back it up. You are assuming this is the case because you want to believe that your religion is actually worth a d@mn. Don't make assumptions about people that you can't back up. It's not healthy.
When you hear about bad things happening to devout believers, does that damage your faith? Or do you accept that being in the wrong place at the wrong time can put even a saint in jeopardy? Religion is about practical guidance, and comfort to cope with life's adversities--not a blanket of protection against disaster. What else of value can it offer?
That is a good question. Why did I wait so long to turn to Him. Pride. I can do it myself, thank you. Not beholden to any one. Only low-class people believed in that religious bunk. The list is endless. It is a blessing when people find Him as children and grow up turning to Him as soon as a problem arises. Saves them so much trouble. I still forget to Turn and ask Him to take over. Which only means I keep getting in His way, because He is always working for my best.
This is true. It's also true for believers too. I know some in both arenas that complain about the way their life is going.
I have myself too in the past. Just pray for them (the believers) to trust in his will more. And for the unbelievers I always pray that God open their hearts to see the truth.
That is essentially all you can do.
Yeah, I hear Angelie Jolie and Paris Hilton 'rant %26amp; rave' all the time.
In reality, believer or not, do you see anyone doing that? Reality-rain falls on both parties.
Why do you God-fearing people seem to think that you are better than everyone else? Maybe not everyone shares your views.
Sounds like they've lost hope in God.
In any case, people are not prone to avail themselves of that which they cannot see the relevance of to their survival.
We cannot just say ';Try God'; without being able to help them to see how doing so will help them with the problems they are facing.
Problems require Solutions.
Solutions are the result of Understanding.

I have never blamed my problems on God, and I don't consider life unfair to me. Not everyone believes in God, and when they don't, telling them to won't change anything. In reality, I hear more Christians say that life is unfair to them.
Turtle Wax is a far better protector than God is.
Er, it's the believers who rant and rave that life is unfair.
Why do you believers feel this need to invent problems?
Shouldn't that be a sign that there's something seriously wrong with your worldview?
The reason why you believe is because Gods grace has made it so, PRAY THAT THEY ALSO will recieve that grace!! God will never refuse to answer that request.DO IT NOW ,GO ON!!
I used to refuse it and I still do now even since my mind changed radically on life and existence. You need a Lord to guide you but many people are not trying to get something from it, they want to know more about it and look everywhere they can without ever finding it. We lose our time looking for it, inside and outside of us and we don't take the time to use its powers.
Many people are now very selfish and they think themselves are the lord, that they are alone to get through life, but in fact they didn't understand that the lord is only inside of them, the lord is the link between every human and that's the link which makes the order of the universe so we can see all together in only one direction.
I don't believe in the bible or in anything else as the lord can't be explained in words. I prefer scientific approach which might explain many things sooner or later, but all these things will be related to bible, quran... In fact, we'll understand what has been written since the beginnings and we'll share the same opinion on it.
That's how I see human,science and religion's evolution.

Have you ranted and raved today?
鈾eel free to share your frustrations in your answer :)Have you ranted and raved today?
yes a little but have to be careful what you say on here soemone may take it the wrong way or think it pertains to them so i will just say
XOF$%G V$#W^*(()U%26amp;^%#XY*()*F(U(C)K% I*T:)Have you ranted and raved today?
yes my supervisor is a control freak and an idiot! he withholds information we need to make it seem like he's important, but he makes hinself look foolish when we mess up due to his stupidity, and i call his boss to straighten it out! lolololol, supervisor = moron!
I have a headache. I'm not wanting to go to bed cause I just wanted few hours to be alone. here. in the dark.
my day was kinda dumb but not too dumb, I wanted to go out but heaven forbid!! my friends parents let her go out.
some people just have to learn when to let go of their kids.
anyways, today was like half UGH and half OMG I cant stop laughing!!
Not yet. I'm going back to bed now.
Only a little...but I got it out of my system...
lol yes...
its about what to do with the string beans, my old lady wants it the other way that i want, and she is unreasonable....
but at the end i give in, as usual...
yes I have which is really unlike me.My husband and children have had the last week of school and work,and today I spat the dummy because they haven't done a thing to help around the house what so ever while I have been at work.The only one who has helped is my 3 year old son by putting his toys back in his toy box.Thanks for that I feel so much better.Take care.
I try to do so at least once a day, just to let off a bit of steam. Reciprocation is the key, though, to a healthy ranting lifestyle. Whomever you've just 'let it all hang out' to, allow them the same!
Not yet. I don't have anything to rant %26amp; rave about, yet. But when I do, I'll get back to you.
i did that a couple days ago on my 360. I'm good for now. thanks for the opportunity.
~peace~
actually yes - not like me... maybe i'm getting insecure
People who insist on driving 10 miles under the speed limit make me crazy! So do people who can't get off their cell phones when they drive! STOP YAKKING ON YOUR PHONE AND PUSH DOWN ON THE PEDAL UNDER YOUR RIGHT FOOT!
*Whew* Thanks. :-)
not yet but it's only 9 so i still have plenty of time
actually, i kind of had a bad day today.... no one talked to me AGAIN at the gym today because some said i looked like a ';snob'; (but actually i'm not. no one's just ever tried to get to know me)... but it doesn't matter hehe. then i shouted (well, not actually shouted..) at some kids carroling for christmas just this evening.. i just said, ';Just go to the next door. your voices suck!';... it really felt bad but i still feel annoyed because the kids who carrols every christmas here (in my country) sings really bad! like the kids whom i victimized earlier shouted the songs instead of singing (every year they're like that... there's no spirit of christmas in their voices... just the spirit of ';money';. yes i know they're just kids!...)... i was talking on the phone at the garage because it was noisy inside... so they came and sang though they saw me talking on the phone (that call was important!)... and they sang like crap! just for the money! plus, our neighbors might have heard me because it was fairly loud... and my mom heard me from the kitchen and she was sort of surprised and kinda speechless.... i'm really in a bad mood these days... don't know what's wrong with me... i'm not usually like this.... aargh! eniways... thanks for the opportunity! made me feel kinda better... hehe.
I've only had a disagreeable moment with one person today and I've known her long enough to know theres no point in wasting the energy.
I have but not about anything i can talk about on here...
No. I had a beautiful day.
you reminded me, I forgot to.
Not yet,I just woke up about 10 minutes ago.
lol...thanks
Why do some people take the slightest little things so seriously?
I mean, really, all I did was set up long enough to smoke a cig, but before I was done, she got mad, got up, and said all I wanted to do was hold you. she smokes too, and was smoking. I was in an odd position each time I went to flick the ashes in the ashtray, so I set up.....about 45 seconds later, she gets up and walks off.....didn't even tell me why till i walked in there and asked her what was wrong.....
i was still on the sofa holding her...just in a different position.
went to bed, no kiss, no hugs, nothing...
I am not pleased at all! I am nothing but good to her.
Im fine thanks
yes a little but have to be careful what you say on here soemone may take it the wrong way or think it pertains to them so i will just say

Not yet. I don't have anything to rant %26amp; rave about, yet. But when I do, I'll get back to you.
i did that a couple days ago on my 360. I'm good for now. thanks for the opportunity.
~peace~
actually yes - not like me... maybe i'm getting insecure
People who insist on driving 10 miles under the speed limit make me crazy! So do people who can't get off their cell phones when they drive! STOP YAKKING ON YOUR PHONE AND PUSH DOWN ON THE PEDAL UNDER YOUR RIGHT FOOT!
*Whew* Thanks. :-)
not yet but it's only 9 so i still have plenty of time
actually, i kind of had a bad day today.... no one talked to me AGAIN at the gym today because some said i looked like a ';snob'; (but actually i'm not. no one's just ever tried to get to know me)... but it doesn't matter hehe. then i shouted (well, not actually shouted..) at some kids carroling for christmas just this evening.. i just said, ';Just go to the next door. your voices suck!';... it really felt bad but i still feel annoyed because the kids who carrols every christmas here (in my country) sings really bad! like the kids whom i victimized earlier shouted the songs instead of singing (every year they're like that... there's no spirit of christmas in their voices... just the spirit of ';money';. yes i know they're just kids!...)... i was talking on the phone at the garage because it was noisy inside... so they came and sang though they saw me talking on the phone (that call was important!)... and they sang like crap! just for the money! plus, our neighbors might have heard me because it was fairly loud... and my mom heard me from the kitchen and she was sort of surprised and kinda speechless.... i'm really in a bad mood these days... don't know what's wrong with me... i'm not usually like this.... aargh! eniways... thanks for the opportunity! made me feel kinda better... hehe.
I've only had a disagreeable moment with one person today and I've known her long enough to know theres no point in wasting the energy.
I have but not about anything i can talk about on here...
No. I had a beautiful day.
you reminded me, I forgot to.
Not yet,I just woke up about 10 minutes ago.
lol...thanks
Why do some people take the slightest little things so seriously?
I mean, really, all I did was set up long enough to smoke a cig, but before I was done, she got mad, got up, and said all I wanted to do was hold you. she smokes too, and was smoking. I was in an odd position each time I went to flick the ashes in the ashtray, so I set up.....about 45 seconds later, she gets up and walks off.....didn't even tell me why till i walked in there and asked her what was wrong.....
i was still on the sofa holding her...just in a different position.
went to bed, no kiss, no hugs, nothing...
I am not pleased at all! I am nothing but good to her.
Im fine thanks
Did anything happen to you on Monday that you need to rant and rave about?
Every problem seems worse on Monday!Did anything happen to you on Monday that you need to rant and rave about?
Lets see mom is in a nursing home and calls atleast 20 times a day. Step dad just paid 30,000 for my moms lawyer. I saw my mom and thinking maybe she is all right in her head and saw that she wrote on three pieces of paper God and the holy spirits email me. Then she told me that she talks to god personally. Mom suffers from deminsia and she is 51 years old. I have friends that make exuses just so they dont have to hang out with me.Did anything happen to you on Monday that you need to rant and rave about?
yeah, I got an email from my ex girlfriend. My cell phone was in my pocket and it apparently dialed her number and her voicemail recorded a five minute conversation with a buddy I was out with. I can't remember if I talked about her or not!
yes about 5 men commented on my breasts. Oh wait, that happenes EVERYDAY and it's f_cking legal. die bastards.
No, everything was great!
Mondays just suck in general..!
Yes the Packers lost, I am still ranting and raving about it.
I'm a day sleeper.
I work graveyard shift and I didn't get much
sleep today.
I guess Anxiety--I have a Dental Appt at 8:00 AM
this morning. (getting a jaw tooth removed OUCH !)
Good thing tonight is my ';Friday';
(I hate Mondays)
yes my hubby went t bed with out giving any loving but other than that had a great day
Yes! I work as a RN in the emergency room. And for some reason we saw more weirdo's this Monday than I can ever remember. Example, We had a 38 year old man come in because he stuffed his nose with peas to see how many he could get up there, and then he couldn't get them out. Go figure
well mine was good actually for once,not at the beggining though,it took me months to get my identity back ,i was of victim of theft online and i had to go all over for the last few months just to get it back today but i did preside finally ,i hope you had a better one than me ,now it is beer 30 at 1:21 am
life is good, no problems.
OMG! my cell phone provider cingular dose not have 24 hour customer service.
if i have to be here at work during these hours so should my wireless provider. if i knew there was no 24 hour customer service i wouldn't have gone with cinuular.
i think it's BS i called tech support and laid into some poor woman in their 24 hour tech support office. less than 30 minutes ago.
I had a bad day at work. Long story...
Nope

Thank youWould you like to rant and rave about any subject under the sun?
Davina McCall is a money grabber and I don't see how she's got any presenting work. How did Steve Brookstein win X Factor? Come on, he's not exactly a quality singer is he? Finally, why is it easy for any idiot to get to no.1 in the UK?Would you like to rant and rave about any subject under the sun?

yes i think that liverpool fans are without question the most boring set of human beings, that could possibly be gathered in one place.laura mercier
