The NSG day-to-day gripes thread

Postby Bluth Corporation » Tue Apr 05, 2011 6:28 pm

Because we all need a place to vent...what's got you a bit annoyed today?

Yesterday, I submitted a request to my university's library for a book via inter-library loan. The library refused to process the request because they own a copy of the book. Which is true, but according to the library's own online catalog the only copy is currently checked out and not due back until two days after the paper for which I intend to use it is due.

A professor I wanted to go see today changed his office hours, wasn't really that annoying. I got some free drip coffee from Starbucks which tasted like shit. That's about it, I guess.

Another library related complaint. Apparently my university's library has a huge problem with theft. I had last weekend free, for the first time in 2 months or so, and I wanted to check out a movie. Blade runner? Stolen. The Fifth Element? Stolen. District 9? Stolen. Charlie Wilson's War? Stolen. Goddamnit why can't they get netflix or pirate like everybody else.

Also, why do non-smokers tend to gather around public ashtrays and then complain about having smoke blown in their faces? Would they prefer that I litter?

My teachers are making me write about why I am qualified to take an AP course. I have an A and want to take the course real bad! I shouldn't have to write an essay about why I'm qualified.

The girl at my local coffee house is incompetent, everyday I come there and order the same thing, and everyday she prepares it wrong in some different way, I can be bothered to list the precise details of it's construction and she's nice enough that I'd hate to bother. But dammit I want my caramel drizzle for fucking once.

I am sick of my friends and their stupid fake relationship. They have never been on a date and barely hang out together, yet they're either talking about how much they "looove" each other or fighting because they think the other one was mad at them or doesn't talk to them enough. I'm good friends with both of them, so they always come to me to complain about the other one and ask me what to do and I'm just like "talk about your feelings blahblahblah" while inside I'm thinking "YOU GUYS AREN'T EVEN REALLY DATING I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR STUPID NON-EXISTANT PROBLEMS AHHHH"

I actually have the opposite situation. I'm sick and tired of being open with people due to the medication I'm on. I'm not myself as of late, and while I like some of what I do, I hate the bubbly and open not-me that I've been for the past week or so.

It's funny how they want to be your friend after they completely screw you over. And by funny I mean bat-shit annoying.

My vent: I got sick last tuesday with a fever, sore throat, body aches. And I still have it even though it's a lot better now. But still, ugh! Being sick sucks. Death to all viruses!

Its not just cold, its so fucking cold I couldn't tell if my fridge was working or not earlier today because everything felt room temperature and I cannot afford to pay $600 fucking dollars for the minimum amount of fuel the the heating company is willing to deliver.
