What pissed you off today? - Page 61

Wrang1er · 06-25-2014, 07:30 PM

She was sitting at her desk laughing hysterically and calls me over. She is watching a video that my supervisor and a couple co-workers made about a new program that our dept. is switching too. In the video they jokingly talk about how this program will save us on toner, paper, pens and paper clips. What pisses me off is that 3 people are also losing their jobs. Me being one of them.

It seemed insensitive to me.

People who aren't honest. You aren't much if you don't have integrity. I don't get it, just do the right thing!

This particular post applies to one of my peers and now a former friend.

people thinking sarcasm = meanie cruel bo beanies. this coast, I swear, sometimes, with one of the highest standards of living can be some of the most uptight wank-a-thons going... *hair pull*

I have a feeling they don't actually know what sarcasm is. A form of language that uses opposites, in an intelligent manner (one hopes...) to show humour in an absurdity. Like those fake-humourous news sites like the Onion. Or,say, Irony. Irony is a form of sarcasm.

"Irony is: Something that happens contrary to what is typically expected or appropriate. Can apply to language, as when someone sarcastically says something but means the opposite, such as: “Justin Bieber’s pants look great.”"

To be able to use sarcasm between friends etc, one has to be able to laugh at themselves and be able to have a high enough self esteem/self acceptance that self deprecating humour is also appreciated. For example, when I'm wearing a tin foil hat for bleaching my hair, and face cream, being told "wow. that's hot. all you need is clown pants and I'd ask you to bend over." by a mate. this is sarcasm. and its FUNNY.

And the killjoys that I run into with their putting tears on organic broccoli flowers to give to the flying yoga mat riding orca of positivity in this coast sometimes irritates the living shit out of me.

just because I can laugh at myself and make jokes about myself or take the piss (smart arse) my friends does not not make me cruel or have low self esteem. sheesh.

I would rather say that I am disgruntled or irritated.

I have a project partner that works for a different company and today was the second time that he has called me to ask a question then when I try to respond he talks over me.

I am going to pull him aside and explain to him why that is rude and ask him to revise his behavior.

The car rental place......

I went there to finally get a car...(ive been without one for almost a week) and they dont have any....really?? I had a reservation and everything. So...the girl says come back after 3....Im getting some cars in from the city then....
Being that Ive been once bitten.....I called after 3.....yep....still nothing. Oh but she has something coming back in 30 minutes (mind you they close in an hour) and I told her jjust call me when (if) it comes in. Yeah. no call. So Im still carless...and they are only open 9am~ noon tomorrow...joy

CyberStud · 07-13-2014, 04:00 AM

Self righteous, intellectual superiority complex, sanctimonious, egotistical, insincere, pompous a'holes who feel their opinion is the only valid one to be heard and followed...well it's NOT! Maybe certain ideas get lost in translation but I'm well versed in bullshit and call it as I see it. I respect all opinions and simple expect the same in return!

End of rant.

Time to meditate and rediscover my happy place.

Pissed,that I woke so early on my day off. However, it will only make my day longer!

people who exist in a "love bubble" when they are dating.....ignore their friends and family......and then look for an ear and a shoulder after the bubble bursts.....

Leigh · 07-18-2014, 11:06 AM

Some ex of mine trying to tell my mom why Hy broke up with me and that apparently I gave Hym some "disease" when I was never with anyone but hym and the people who are closest to me can attest to that. Good lord, some people need to grow up (this ex lives in my city unfortunately)

cinnamongrrl · 07-19-2014, 06:05 AM

well.....

I woke up at my regular time (6am) and was still tired...so I decided to go back to bed. I NEVER do this.....

well.....

first, the neighbors rooster starts crowing....badly at that....he's young yet....

then......

the neighbor is taking her obviously still tired kids ( I could tell by the shrieking and whining....) out somewhere. These are kids that only leave the house for school really. Today....of course....is the exception.

finally.....

someone on a motorcycle sits somewhere close by with the engine idling....

ok universe...Im up! this better be good.....

willow · 07-19-2014, 07:23 AM

Knowing there are so many thunder storms around right now (my sister has has had 2 nights of continuous storms and there's still rumbling 12hrs later) and here, nothing. Not one flash. Not one rumble.

Bèsame* · 07-22-2014, 06:03 PM

Shoplifters, with their kids in tow!

Yeah, I saw your face!

LoyalWolfsBlade · 07-22-2014, 07:27 PM

Haven't decided if it's at this site or technology in general whichever is responsible for me not being able to change my status right now.....

Not worth anger so I am off for my nap and will be back later to change it hmpff

Jaeger · 07-22-2014, 07:31 PM

It sounds kind of trite, but I find the signs on the highway that say "Stay awake for safety sake" really irritating. Shouldn't it be "safety's sake?" Or "for the sake of safety?"

Or maybe the whole point is that they irritate you into staying awake. At least that's what happened to me today.

WingsOnFire · 07-23-2014, 10:32 PM

I am so sick of having to call security because my neighbors don't care that their children ages 4 to 10 are outside by themselves running around screaming at the top of their lungs outside my window. Mind you there is never any adult supervision either. I was in bed by 7 when I was that age. It's very disrespectful of everyone else.

last time I had to call it was 1030

alwaysbeannie · 07-27-2014, 12:06 PM

My ex.... It was nothing more than just seeing her face and instead of someone I used to love I saw a face that I wanted to punch.... The fury inside me right now has left me shaking...

candy_coated_bitch · 07-27-2014, 03:50 PM

Everything. Everything possible in the world is pissing me off. I am NOT having a good day.

EnchantedNightDweller · 07-27-2014, 06:43 PM

I can literally feel my blood pressure go up when I'm pissed.
