Thread Where You Can Rant About Everything That Is Wrong With The World

<p>Here are my rants:</p>

<p>BP - they have no clue how to fix the oil well, they’re just buying time till August when they get their relief well. They’ll probably get off easy to as far as compensating people they affected.</p>

<p>Divorce - Saw on the news that Al Gore got a divorce. I’m just tired of hearing about divorce and how common it is. Marriage should be a lifelong commitment and if it isn’t working, get it fixed, get counseling, not a divorce. People have to learn to fight for their marriage. (apologies in advance to anyone whose parents got a divorce and yes I know I probably don’t have a good enough view on this since I’ve never been married haha)</p>

<p>Middle schoolers/young high schoolers dating - You love each other? Yeah, I doubt it haha, you’re just doing it because it’s cool. A plus though is that the guy gets to brag about how he has a girlfriend. :)</p>

<p>Israel/Middle East - never gonna be fixed, the world will end when something gets even worst in the Middle East.</p>

<p>Money - people don’t have any control over money today and just spend on whatever they want even if they don’t have the money to (credit cards are a big problem). If you make more than $50,000 and you feel financial pressure, you’re out of control spending. </p>

<p>People complaining that they have nothing - If you live in America and have a salary over $40-50,000, you’re already richer than most of the people in the world. I’ve traveled abroad and have seen places of real poverty (like Kenya). I think the problem is that people like to compare with people around them instead of looking at a global view.</p>

<p>people are so selfish, me included</p>

</p>

<p>What if a couple gets counseling and it isn’t fixed? I don’t feel anybody should be in a relationship that they are miserable in.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>What’s the point with comparing yourself to other people. It’s just like somebody who gets a D. That person might say three people got F’s, so at least I’m not like them. I don’t like comapring myself to other people. It makes no sense to me. </p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Are you a female? You think guys just date to brag about their girlfriends?</p>

<p>If BP were a country I’d advocate the carpet nuking of it.</p>

<p>Money - I agree with you for the most part but depending where you live, $50k/yr isn’t a whole lot.</p>

5

<p>haha enough about mine, those are just my opinions</p>

<p>anybody else?</p>

6

<p>The fact that the economy sucks…seriously, it is the source of most of my problems.</p>

7

<p>Why do women have the right to vote? It’s complete and utter non-sense. And now they’re talking about letting gay folk have the right to marriage! What the hell is this country coming to? Get off my lawn, you whippersnappers!</p>

8

<p>how most colleges discriminate in giving financial aid to international students.</p>

<p>how people are so gullible and so persistent about being gullible. horoscopes? homeopathy? the power of prayer? grow up.</p>

<p>how the republican party is infested by wingnut religious freaks who want to take america back to the dark ages.</p>

<ul>
<li><p>My apartment neighbor’s need to incessantly blast South Park at 4am. </p></li>
<li><p>(Repeatedly) Losing the little plastic cover thing on my earbuds.</p></li>
<li><p>Not knowing when my favorite singer or author has something new out until a year later because I forget to regularly check. (I wonder if there’s a website that can automatically check or something…)</p></li>
<li><p>When my sucky cable provider (Time Warner) freezes the television right at “the good part” of a movie or show–but never freezes during a commercial.</p></li>
<li><p>Slipping. I don’t know what is up with these floors but they are the most slippery floors ever. </p></li>
</ul>

<p>Weird. I thought I’d be able to come up with more to complain about. I guess I’m just in a good mood lately.</p>

<p>About the whole divorce thing, I definitely think that people should try to get the marriage fixed at first (through counseling or something like that), but eventually, if you can’t get it fixed, then you have to do what’s best and divorce.</p>
