Things to complain about

[zenia]

The whole house is pretty cool and the thermostat is at 20c... but my room is a SAUNA. Why do I always pick the hot rooms? Summer is going to be a drag, but at least I can open my window, bedroom door and kitchen door and maybe get a breeze in once the weather gets hot.

LONG LIVE CAPS LOCK !!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

Till you find out somebody punched a hole in the tank to get said fuel.

it seems like family are always the first people to let me down, :\

one of my roommates is an illiterate, arrogant asshole who hasn't paid his month's rent yet - and yes, he hasn't paid and we're at the END of this month.
he's a friend of my boyfriend - so he's a little hesitant on kicking him out. (although their 'friend' status has been diminishing pretty quickly lately)
the man walks around telling us he's the 'king of hot shit', with his blonde plaything wrapped around his pinky because he keeps her drugged up on cocaine and speed.
he had to ask me how to spell 'toothpaste' last night, and didn't know what the word 'charismatic' meant.

i would really love to walk right up to him, and punch him right in the face. = w=

I would actually pity you in this situation if you evicted the loser.
What kind of people does your boyfriend associate himself with anyways?

My complaint today:

I caught a flu walking in the cold wind yesterday for 6km to my first meeting with my potential employers at Safeway. Because I was sick this morning I had to cancel and reschedule my second job interview at Thrifty Foods (last one was for a position in the bakery, this one is for a position in the deli department) which makes me look bad because it is inconvenient for them - they set time aside to meet me.  :( I'm feeling much better this evening, but that doesn't help me now. At least they did agree to rescheduling.

usually good people -
the roommate was very nice in the beginning (and didnt seem like such an idiot) ..
it was just when he got his girlfriend that he started acting this way. :l

on another note. i had to run through sewage water today - a pipe near cambie and broadway burst.
my shoes smell disgusting, gotta wash them. D<

My whole family is miserable and fighting with each other right now, just when things start going well for me. After months of boredom and having no direction I finally get not one but two calls back from two different places offering me work. I'm getting a chance to retake my N drivers license test again, I'll have a much better chance passing it this time. I just got my food safe certification today - which will help me rise up when I do get hired by one of the grocery stores. Things should be going pretty good. Yet my parents are now fighting with each other over the pettyest stupid things, and my spoiled puke of a brother is playing the martyr and egging the both of them on to yell at him and each other some more until somebody starts tossing furniture.

I know this is all rather selfish of me - god only knows what this feud of theirs is actually about. I know it sure as hell isn't about me though given that I'm the only one not yelling or being yelled at. I don't mean to come off as attention seeking, this is just my illogical raw emotion you're reading right now. It just seems like every time I find something nice for myself they hold me back from excelling even farther in my personal betterment. They know on some secret level that I'm a faggot, and a socially withdrawn and awkward misanthrope with a serious case of ADD, who is prone to arbitrarily going in and out of depression. My parents have spent hundreds of dollars on me in medication and psych. visits - and they and I know it. I'm someone who's never had any real goals or motivation to improve upon himself, I don't have skills to offer the world, I've had no desire or knowledge to change that.

Now after a long time (Too long, 4 months) of feeling sorry myself I find a reason to change and the people I love can't even be brought to sincerely tell me they're so much as relieved that I'm not turning into one of our fucked up relatives (A lot of trash in this family) after all!
I wonder how much worse they could possibly think of me I told them I might be one of those perverted freaks from one of those socially excluded internet subcultures, I spend more time sitting on my ass typing on this thing than doing anything else. No offence to any other user on this board, I know for a fact all of you are better than me in that respect, look at my post count if you have doubts.

I'm not suicidal, but I can't help but wonder how much things would really change if I started ingesting things to the point where I bleed my own liver out and starve myself to death on chemicals. I suppose that's still a twisted and wrong way of thinking though?

I apologize for spraying emo wrist blood all over this thread, I realize It's supposed to be light hearted and this really isn't the place to be writing this. If the admins feel this was out of line, I am sorry for posting this, I encourage you delete it. I'll probably be embarrassed for opening myself up to you guys like this by tomorrow morning anyways. I wanted to vent, and my judement is a little clouded by my emotions right now. Run on sentences and whatnot.

[Renwaldo]

I'm sorry I hijacked this thread. This is a ploy for attention, and I'm aware of that.
I can't bring myself to delete it because I need to talk to someone! I'm sorry that turned out to be you guys, most of of whom I have only met once if at all. It seems like so long since I've actually talked to people seriously, I've been accidently burning the bridges of my friends from highschool. They all went to grow up and make something of themselves. I stayed home to play videogames and leach off my parents, something I'm still doing and have done for at least two years now.

I just know I'm going to be ashamed of writing all this tomorrow, but I just can't seem to stop myself.

Sounds like a conversation I would rather have with you in person ...
I wish you were closer ... I would go pick you up right now and hang out.
Turns out a group from roller Skating are heading over here tonite - sounds like you could use some positive 'furry' role models in your life right now.
Listen, your parent (outside influences) are only going to effect you as much as you are willing to let them. If they fight and that effects you, you let it. A good glass of wine / beer / rum/ vodka/ gin / schnapps /  whatever ... is a WAY better choice than a whole lot of the alternatives that you are eluding to. If you wanna talk, let me know ...

That's very kind of you, but I can't make it out tonight. Ironically we came back from Surrey Central a couple hours ago, my food safe course was at SFU. :P
I think I've said enough here already. There's really no excuse for me to be so obnoxious and so publically on Rat's nice board. I'm going to give myself a time out in the corner after all this. It does nothing to help the negative stereotype.

I'm really looking forward to seeing you guys again on the 5th. :)

I am very sorry to hear that Ethan.
This is precisely why I feel I should be ashamed of myself right now. >.< I whine and bitch and complain about my parents while they cater to my every need of survival as long as I live here.

Do you at least have a plan of where you can go? Even a church or a shelter is better than nothing. I can try and get you in touch with a group if you like.

One furry never allows another furry to go without ... isn't that what we are all about???

hope to fucking god landlord doesnt mind me being late again with rent, all  i got to my name right now is 50 bucks that a firend owed me that i had to go to fucking vancouver to get it, now im ognna go turn this into something(s) that i can party/forget with
and somehow this really isnt bothering me that much im pretty much laughing at it, kinda odd......

[Renwaldo]

Well if you do find yourself in a bad place please don't hesitate to ask for help.
I don't know where you live, but I know of a christian group that operates many shelters and rehab centres across the lower mainland. They are religious but they admit anyone who needs help, and of course you wouldn't be required to take part in the religion if you choose not to.

Many of the shelters cater to those with bad addictions, I just feel that you should be warned. They don't allow drinking or smoking on the premises or staying there while inebriated. Some operate more like rehab clinics. There isn't a lot of privacy and there are curfews: doors are locked after a certain hour at night. You will likely end up sharing a room with someone else, some of the places do not even have rooms per bed for sake of security.

The people at these places are very good though, they are very understanding, healthcare staff are usually on site. If you end up on the street they'll be able to get you a warm room and some meals until you can get back on your feet.

I know my complaint really isn't that bad compared to others but here it goes: SOOOO MUCH SNOW!!!!! >_< and also, my stupid job is driving me insane  :vik:

[Zen]

All complaints are valid, unless they are invalid.

My 18 month old will not go to sleep. He does not understand what "bedtime" means. Thus, some nights he crashes at 8pm, others not till 10pm or 11pm. Why do kids hate bedtimes so much? (Ignoring the parental hypocrisy there.)
