Medziotojas Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 You know sometimes, when you've had a bad day at the office, or a bird has just shat on you, or you simply need to rant (and let off some steam) without opening a new thread? Well here we have the "have-a-rant thread!" It's an amalgamation of them all. Sometimes, the drunk thread may feel appropiate (check the time), like now! ...and sometimes you feel you have a few ideas that coincide with other threads! Fear not, we can rant here! Ok, kick off time! What bugs you? Lets go... Things are warming up in Vilnius, the party season is here, and I'm going to be totally housebound from the 16th of this month until the 3rd August. Everybody's partying, but muggins here is working! Will Shetland ever get a referendum? ...and why didn't I get any money back for backing "Eshaness" in the 19?? Grand National? Why do pedestrians walk when I am driving? Why do motorists speed when I am walking? Why is Alexander Graham Bell acclaimed for inventing the telephone? ...ok, rant over - you get the idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeMascus Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 What annoys more than anything are rants. When someone continually voices their objection to a subject by viewing it from different angles, all of which just seem to be as subjective as the others, and saying that they don't like it. What gets me more than that is when the person should have realized that they have made their point but seem to just not know when to stop, they have said enough but they continue and keep going, getting more and more aggressive in their tone and more erratic in their subject matter. I hate some one ranting while wearing glasses they just feel they are more intelligent because of it and making other people feel stupid and have to listen to them because of their ocular imperfection. And I really hate rants that try to be smart by attempting to be ironic. Johnathan D Mascus Esq. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just been at a blind corner and nearly crashed due to that, plus other car had to reverse for miles as passing place behind me had a car parked in it with some tosser in the field taking photos of some poxy birds.

Self important pratts who use the term "Dont you know who I am ?" The whole PC brigade. The government foisting us further into europe. Council tax rising far faster than inflation / wage rises.

khitajrah Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 Why is Alexander Graham Bell acclaimed for inventing the telephone? Completely off topic but I'd just like to say that the Alexander Graham Bell Muesum in Cape Breton, Canada was absolutely brilliant! As a kid we used to go there on class trips and the kites we got to fly were bigger than ourselves (which always made me slightly afraid - even more so when I read Iain Banks' The Wasp Factory and my fear was put in writing!) As for crediting him with the invention of the telephone it is probably because it is too lenghy a procedure to list of everyone who had ideas that were pinched, elaborated upon and passed onto other inventors, same as with many other inventions. He invented a telephone, that's more than I've accomplished anyway. Well done Mr. Bell! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
