You Seem Pissed... What Are You So Angry About??

[arwalden]

[trumad]

1. People debating which Darren was better on Bewitched

That pisses me off.

[JVS]

3. Dick York forever!

[redqueen]

2. child abuse, lies, tyranny, torture, apathy, loneliness, and on and on.

[Gyre]

4. Gee, I can't imagine.

Nope, just can't think of a single reason to be angry. Time to get happy everybody and have a gay orgy. :evilgrin:

Gyre

[Ellen Forradalom]

5. Marriage.

What a colossal mistake for me. I once had ambitions of being a person, but I am now an official Stupid Little Wife and Mother.

Also, the kid thinks this is a first-class hotel. I just told him that if his favorite shirt is dirty, tough luck: pick one of two dozen others.

[1monster]

8. Empathy and sypathy.

Been there, still there, working through it. How come kids are soooo lazy and husbands think that wives are a combination of secretary, maid of all work, chief bottle-washer, child-minder, luandress, chef, house cleaner, sex provider, supplementary wage earner, etc., and that they are more than doing their share when they occasionally take out the garbage???

[Ellen Forradalom]

12. I sincerely hope that an influx of happy gay people

will breathe new life and meaning into this tired, sexist institution.

[sleepyhead]

34. I agree with both of you.

No kids here, but otherwise I have the same thoughts.

[xmas74]

41. No husband

but I have the child problem.
When did I become the maid?

[Ellen Forradalom]

51. Yeah, what's with the first-class hotel attitude?

They don't even tip. Bastards.

[madison2000]

6. sick of being lied to all the time

advertising lies, media lies, right wing lies...

[terrya]

7. The fact that George W. Bush is the President of the United States.

[calico1]

9. The fact that eating celery

won't make me gain weight but chocolate will!:silly:

[ContraBass Black]

10. You don't want to know.

:mad:

[Ellen Forradalom]

11. I took my kid to the museum

and he shit in his pants. I cannot take him anywhere.

[fleabert]

14. best post I have read in a looooong time!

LOL. that was unexpected, to say the least. you made me giggle!

anyone that has cared for kids knows your pain.:hug:

and...my little Flea got poop on me yesterday, never happened before. she's a really clean dog, but didn't quite 'finish the job' and jumped in my lap afterwards. yea me.

[RedCloud]

13. Some guy had his wiener chopped off

And there is some lonely night crawler out there...

[Beware the Beast Man]

15. There is a fundamental lack of nicotine flowing through my blood system.

:grr:

[Misunderestimator]

17. I HEAR you, man! I quit about 30 hours ago.

and nicorette gives me awful stomach pains... I chew it anyway. AND I AM PISSED!!!

[redqueen]

22. Bless both your hearts!

Thanks for making the effort... for yourselves, your loved ones, and your country!

:yourock:

[Misunderestimator]

25. LOL... wow

the pressure... someone give me a cigarette!! :)

[redqueen]

27. Noooooo!

;)

Seriously, major kudos to you... my husband quit before, but started again, and now he can't seem to quit. :(

My free unsolicited advice - don't start again, 'cause the quitting just seems to get harder. Was true for me as well.

Good luck!

:hug:

[Misunderestimator]

28. I know already.... I quit for 8 years once...

You're absolutely right.... it only gets harder and harder. First time I quit I was only 24, now it's been off and on for ten years. I'm not getting any younger... but I'm also not making any pronouncements here :) I quit yesterday and I might start tomorrow, but for today I don't smoke.

...and thanks! :hug:

[redqueen]

30. I knew it!

I'm never smoking again... no matter how much I'm tempted. And good golly miss molly have I EVER been sorely tempted lately!

Congrats on today... after all, that's really all you can deal with right now, right?

[Misunderestimator]

32. Thanks! And absolutely, DO NOT do it...

after the eight years smoking, I had ONE cigarette at a party... then a week later, ONE cigarette at dinner, then a week later, and so on, until I was buying them after a particularly stressful thing or another... there will always be some excuse... so don't put yourself there.

[xmas74]

43. I had quit

for about 3 years then I had a really rotten day at work. That was all it took, for one coworker to offer me a smoke. Now I have been smoking again for about 18 months.
I am thinking about quitting again.

[Misunderestimator]

44. The first time I quit... I quit for eight years...

the second time I quit for less than year, the third time, a few months... there's always an excuse to pick it up again and it's never worth it.

I'll be on to my second day soon... And I don't really even LIKE it.

[xmas74]

42. I've got Kools

Do you want one?

[Misunderestimator]

45. evil

:spank:

yes... please... no no no

[arwalden]

46. Did You Really Quit?

I'm very proud of you! Try the patch... that's what worked for me. The sticky wouldn't hold all to my arm for the full day, so I started putting the patch on my ankle and just let my socks hold them in place. (Hey... skin is skin. It worked.)

Write me if you need support or tips or just to tell me what you're feeling like. It was the toughest thing I've ever done... but one thing I'm glad I did do. (We're coming up on three years smoke-free now! That 3x52x2x$45.00 a carton = $14,040.00 NOT spent on cigarettes between the two of us.)

-- Allen

[Misunderestimator]

47. Yes.... Approaching 48 hours now... not a puff..

I do have some patches from the last time I quit, but they bother my skin... the gum bothers my tummy... and the inhalor is just nasty. It does offer some perspective to consider that I could save enough for a new car over a few years... yikes.

I appreciate the support, Allen!! I feel better this morning already. :)

[arwalden]

50. Same Here...

... the patches would make my skin feel a little tingly and warm. At first, I looked FORWARD to that sensation, because I knew that the patch was starting to kick-in. (Kinda like when I was having a nicotine craving and I would look forward to the burning sensation of feeling the smoke in the back of my throat when I'd take the first big long draw of a freshly lit cigarette. I anticipated that feeling even though it was slightly unpleasant because I knew what the reward was about to be.)

If you read the booklet that comes with the patch, gum, & mints... the mental exercises and breathing exercises sound silly... but they do help. Keeping a written list of REASONS you want to quit helps. Before giving up, read you top ten list out loud... and you get over the that urge.

The thing that helped me most was to BRAG on myself as often as anyone would listen. The encouragement from others really REALLY helped. Also, my desire NOT to disappoint everyone who had faith in me was a big help as well.

I'm cheering for ya Karen... hang in there. It only takes 2 minutes to overcome any single urge! There will be many 2 minute battles, but each one gets easier and easier, and they grow further and further apart.

16. I am angry at the world

I recently admitted this to a couple other people. This is a big step for me because anger is probably my most repressed emotion.
Why am I angry at the world? I have such high ideals, which I find hard to keep myself. I work as hard as I can, I care as much as I can, and I work to develop all that is good in me. Despite this, neither my ideal are realized nor am I personally rewarded. A***holes like Bush snd his friends, along with a**holes from my personal life who don't care about anyone but themselves get rewarded. Greed and conformity are becoming the new values, values which I despise. As for me, I am just a piece of machinery and a potential future babymaker. My ideals don't mean anything. My anxiety rises as I think that if I just worked harder, cared more, or was a better person, that things would be different. Then it occurred to me that it wouldn't so what I am just going to be myself and that's going to have to be good enough for everyone and everything. The world is just going to have to save itself.

[kitkatrose]

29. Do you want a hug? I know how you feel.

:hug: I hope everything works out and the anxiety levels off. It can definitely screw up everything. :hug:

[Nikia]

35. Thanks

I think that I wil feel better when I really accept that it is alright to just be me and to be proud of that no matter what anyone else thinks or what the consequences of that are. High ideals will follow. I just need to chill for now.

[Ellen Forradalom]

52. That makes two of us.

I'm chronically angry for just the reasons you state. What the world needs right now is a good dose of good old-fashioned feminism.

[DS1]

18. The room won't stop spinning

:argh:

[name not needed]

19. Lots of things

I'm a moderator at a Nationstates RP forum, and today, I basically had my balls handed to me. I up a member's warning level for breaking a rule, he goes bitching to the admin and another mod, he gets my actions against him reversed, and now I get threatened, yelled at, and my warning level raised. Then I gave up my mod priveleges.

[Placebo]

20. Fucking activist judges.

:crazy:

[the Princess]

21. Let's see...................... (warning strong language)

As a child I was:

Sexually abused
Verbally physically and phsychologically abused by dear old mom and dad
My sister abused me
I was bullied and picked on as a kid cause I was fat
I had ADD and Dyslexia - both undiagnosed and took way too much shit from family for being *stupid*


As an adult:

I was in an abusive relationship for a year
I was raped
I seemed to attract men who are *not right* (hubby not included in that - I guess I got it right that time)
As a woman I am still considered a second class citizen
As a woman I still don't make as much money as any man
Rape is still used to keep women in line
People will still laugh and be verbally abusive to me because I am still fat.


Our Goverment lies to us
Our food is killing us
The war
Children every day are being abused by someone
Women every day are being raped by someone
Men still think it is their God given right to be *in charge*
I'm living in Fucking Colorado and I HATE IT!!!


Oh I could go on and on and on and on - why shouldn't I be pissed off???????????????????????????????????????????????

[RebelOne]

26. I am pissed because there is a thunderstorm here

and it has killed my satellite reception. Good thing I just received a movie today from NetFlix that I planned on watching tonight because I would probably be calling DishNetwork and screaming about their lousy reception.

[Baclava]

31. I'm pissed...

...there's no shrooms forum.

[miss_kitty]

33. fuck off

I DON'T want to talk about it. And if you don't know-well-fuuuuuuuuuuuuck!

[fudge stripe cookays]

36. I HATE my fucking job.

All I do is the same fucking project. Month after month after month. Never anything new and interesting.

And today my boss inasmuch as told me that I may not be able to take the vacation I've already booked for early June.

If she says I can't have 2 consecutive weeks, I'm quitting.

"Consider this my two weeks notice, then. BITCH."

[TheMightyFavog]

37. This fucking stupid smoking ban that a bunch of morons are trying to force

on the city of Stevens Point.


If you don't want secondhand smoke, go to a fucking smoke free establishment and leave the other places be.

Wheteher smoking is allowed in a bar or restaraunt is the owner's perjorative, not the city's.

Fucking BreatheFree wankers.

Not to mention that some dickhead has been vandalizing my anti smoking ban signs on my door for weeks now.

Not to mention that my dumbass roommate constantly uses the words "faggot" and "nigga" in his everyday speech.

[VelmaD]

38. Life. The Universe. Everything.

*grump*

[SarahB]

39. I'm too grateful to be angry.

There are things I'm currently a bit justifiably perturbed about, but enough things are going well that I can't let myself get in the muck about what is essentially someone else's problem.

[Solly Mack]

40. I'm more disgusted than pissed

thank you for noticing. :)

[Arkana]

48. The metric system

Damn those hectares and kilometers! :argh:

[xmas74]

49. I can't tell

it might get the thread locked!

[Midlodemocrat]

53. I am mad because my cruise is over.
