AF Rant thread.

AF Rant thread.
A thread to place your gripes, grievances, troubles and first world problems. I humbly submit this before the mods in the hopes it will become accepted as the official AF rant thread Big Grin
So, to start off...

I'm starting my new IT apprenticeship tomorrow, it seems absolutely great and perfect for me. Yay! Only problem is, I have a horrible, achy, sniffly cold that has stayed with me all day and will probably be there tomorrow.
Also, my boiler broke down on a fucking sunday LIKE IT ALWAYS DOES so no chance of a proper shower or bath in the morning. Engineer probably won't be out until tuesday.
Ugh...why can't I just have all the nice things?

Can't do much about the boiler though, sorry

Take a monkey wrench down there and get after it, son!
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

I could rant about how the wealthy have taken over the government of America, the religious people are stifling education and trying to seep into every fiber of the country while complaining of discrimination because we're not already a theocracy, and the police can kill people with impunity despite video evidence. The latest I've heard was of a man electrocuted to death by a tazer while in custody for having baggy pants.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

I hope I never have to use this thread for its intended purpose. Despite hitting capacity at the Preserve, today was pretty damned good.

Hope the rest of you get everything sorted.

RE: AF Rant thread.
 Why are the shower heads on my floor left dripping so often? And they don't pull over the curtain, letting it get moldy (even though there is a sign on the wall saying to pull over the shower curtains). And why do they feel the need to hack up something nasty while taking a shower? Seriously half the time it almost sounds like they're gonna vomit! Other people use those showers too, you know, they don't want your bodily fluids all over the place. And would it kill you not to leave dirty clothes on the shower racks when you are done? Where am I supposed to put mys stuff?

And then there are the guys who shave into the sinks, sometimes not just facial hair but chest and back hair too! And why can't people learn to flush the toilets? Or aim, for that matter, since almost every stall has a permanent stain in front of the toilet, and the one in the first stall is so bad that it's still slightly sticky to this day! And then there are the people who just have no dignity. I mean seriously don't walk out of the shower area buck naked when other people can see you! Put on a freaking towel for crying out loud! And just because you put on your briefs does not make it okay to walk around the hall and between your room and the bathroom like that. I don't care if you just came in to go pee (with the stall door open) or to brisuh your teeth; put on some friggin' clothes!

And it isn't even everyone; about half of the floor skips out on floor meetings, and everyone who does attend agree that floor hygine needs improvement. It's that deadbeat second half that doesn't give a Swear.
Curse you! Disappointed

Wow... that felt... strange. I've never ranted like this before. Must... release... hate.



Are those considered first world problems, or is that something more specific?

My shoulders and right knee kind of hurt.

My long legs make it uncomfortable to sit in small desks.

Does this even count as a rant?
