I could rant about the government, idiot car drivers, colleagues who appear to think the boss going on holiday is sufficient excuse to give up for the next week, terrible tv all around and so on and so forth.

:rant: everything, but you know that :rant:
lol Tim.
I was going to say apostrophes
I’ve pretty much given up ranting about most things though, just gets me stressed out!
Don’t you mean apostrophe’s?
One that niggle with me are principle rooms, matters of principal, stationery cars and stationary shops.
Adverts on TV for loans. You know the ones: family with worried looks on their faces about how they are going to pay the bills, when suddenly a voice tells them to get an easy, quick loan, oh and while you’re at it, take out more than you need and treat yourself to a foreign holiday or a new car. The current UK debt statistics
People who use the word overstamp.
should I start?
hmmmm, no, but I think many have heard my rants!
NHS management [or lack thereof]
total lack of ‘blue sky thinking’ or ‘joined up thinking’ and those phrases!!
demise of freedoms
curtailment of thinking populace
quackery
stupid people who try to win points
chunter chunter
Erm, cars – but don’t worry, I won’t start here!
Ridiculous gender assumptions when applied to babies and little children.
The fact that when organisations, employers, goverments etc say they ‘value people’ they are always lying…
People censoring their own thoughts and ideas and limiting their own freedoms. That one really gets me.
people who complain about lurkers on their site ;p
But seriously : “reputable” news sources mis-reporting scientific research and “intelligent” people dismissing the issue because they “know” the answer anyway.
see the news
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6180753.stm
and the source http://www.bmj.com/cgi/content/abstract/bmj.39030.675069.55v1?hrss=1
The key is in the phrase “self-reported”
I wasn’t complaining about lurkers, I like to have ppl read here, I was inviting them to come out and play if they wanted to!
The Marks and Spencer advert for ‘must have’ food, really gets up my nose when there are so many people living on the breadline who would be glad of an ‘ordinary’ chocolate pudding let alone a fabby dabby M&S one. grrrr
Also people that write/say ‘would of’ instead of ‘would have’, not really too sure why that grates though!
Yep, ‘would of’ gets me too. But then all incorrect grammar, spellings and punctuation gets me going!
And single parents being the scourge of society.
And cars too, but that’s only because I’m now brave enough to ride my bike on the road.
And ‘reality’ TV, how glad am I that I live in a secret fantasy land?!
Hey Jo, yes, reality TV is one of my ignition points too.
Liberta, I had read that piece of idiocy too.
What stuck in my mind though was the some of the supposedly “high IQ” vegetarians seem to be people who aren’t bright enough to know that fish and chickens aren’t plants. :rant:
Yes!
I’m vegan, and I completely forgot the rant
about ‘vegetarians’ who eat chicken and fish. So glad you reminded me!
But must admit to high-fiving “high IQ”!!
Haven’t got it in me!!!! Just can’t think of any … and I have a very high IQ (if you are reading that to be irritability quotient!!!)
I’m sure there is an enormous amount to rant about … just don’t seem to have the energy to do it! LOL
How nice it is to be asked to rant though, rather than encouraged to just shut up!
I would rant about being patronised, being treated as if I’m stupid, the fact that DS1 won’t stop moaning about how he doesn’t want to go to a Christening… OK that last one is just plain annoying but it was the last thing he moaned about before he went to bed and the first thing he was moaning about when I woke up this morning and its just about peeing me off. Spots, I’d like to rant about the unfairness of those in ones thirties. Rather less heavyweight than the rest of you but thats how I’m feeling today, treat me like I’m stupid, I’ll act like I’m stupid!
