Say it here cause you can't say it directly- the get it off your chest thread (Part 1)

Please stay indoors. Yes, it’s “only” -11 right now, but it’s supposed to get down to -24 overnight. Please stay indoors. The dog can run around the yard if she really needs to.

I’m never complaining about my Connecticut weather again.

No political comments in this thread. Ahh, if that were only possible.

To the walking dead who staff the doctor’s front office: next time, take the initiative and call the doctor when a test hasn’t received insurance approval because they’re waiting for the doctor to respond and don’t accuse me of “yelling” at you when I am incredulous that you can’t see how this poses a scheduling problem.

To the waitress at the diner: no, we don’t have to “stand and wait” after you offer us a table with a broken chair. You could have apologized and asked that we wait.

To the doctor in the ER: thank you for being genuinely nice and thorough and answering all our questions.

To the universe: what’s going on that a visit to the ER is the high point of my day? But if I have to choose, please keep the medical professionals reasonable and I can learn to deal with all the bad waitresses and receptionists in the world.

No, Delta, we do not consider your moving us from a 2 seat row (A&B) seated together to 2 middle seats behind each other an “upgrade”. And it took only 3 hours on hold to get a human to get us our seats back (since it wouldn’t let us do it on your website)

No more flying southwest for us. Weather I understand but not managing crews so that D spends night in airport because no copilot available stinks. Check a weather report and plan better

I am so tired of every special you run being for local college students. Your local college clientele drive nicer vehicles than I ever have! How about a special for the loyal clients who pay the big bucks? When is that going to happen?

Person A (not really a friend): “Oldfort, I want to ask you something. A friend just got divorced. I want to be there for her. What can I do?”
Me: “Just be there. Call her and just listen. It will get better, but it takes time.”
Person A: “How long?”
Me: “It has been 2+ years for me, and it is much better now.”
Person A: “Really? It takes that long?”

really?
NOW I come down with a cold? When I have NO time to be sick??
arrrghhhhhhhhhh

How dare you tell one of our closest friends he cannot stay here, you ass.

I love Amazon, but will never, ever use Amazon payments on another vendor’s website again. I’ve been trying to straighten out this order for the past three weeks and I just found out it still isn’t resolved. I guess I’ll have to spend some more time on hold with the vendor tomorrow and hope they can find my order this time. Oh, and your “Amazon Payments” site sucks, gives me an error message when I try to report a problem or leave feedback.

Bring your dogs to this kennel they said. They play with the dogs and email you pictures of them…they post pics of them on Facebook too of the interaction. This was supposed to make me feel better about leaving them. I saw the pictures and they looks so sad. I am sad that I didn’t make it back in time to pick them up :frowning:

Please let me be the welcoming parent this Christmas. It looks like it’s going to work out, but please let me not blow it.

delta, you picked the wrong time to send me a satisfaction survey.

It LOOKS like I will have all (adult) kids here, at least for Christmas morning. It would be GREAT if I could get more of a commitment about comings and goings, but I am happy with this.

Sheesh mister. I had no idea I married a country boy who needs a cowboy ranch!!!

Repeat after me:

Say it until it’s burned in your brain and you stop spreading this stupid myth.

Interesting how you initially said only one promotional coupon per individual.

Not too weeks later, the limits were lifted without any fanfare by your employer. Fair enough…happy to help myself to 4 $10 coupons just in time to buy replacement tools for the ones which broke down after years of heavy use.

This time of year makes me nostalgic for when there were 12 people from three generations around the table, which is no longer possible.

I miss you, Dad. I miss you so much.
