Your Daily Rant

To Whom It May Concern,

Please do your assignment/s either before or after a presentation instead of hogging most of the Q&A time. You realize that you took up over 80% of the speaker's time with your questions? Questions that you could've gotten the answers of if you'd only read your textbook/s. To make matters worse, the presenter was from Guatemala and English isn't his first or second language!

On a side note, let the speaker go through his presentation, take notes, then ask for elaboration and/or other source recommendations, plus the speaker wasn't interested in hooking up with either you or your daughter (his girlfriend was in the audience, too.)

Rant part 2:
Ok, so I finally finish filing my niece and her husband's back tax returns. Thankfully nothing too screwy and no back taxes owed. In fact, they're due some fairly substantial refunds. Which brings me to Rant #2. Hardly a day goes by my niece's moron hubby doesn't bitch about not having any money. Genius.... you're sitting on over $6,000! Why the hell wouldn't you claim it?:mad:

Rant Part 2a:
They are now one day behind filing their 2017 return. Guess I'll get those W-2's somewhere around 2021!o_O

Rant Part 3:
I just found out that my niece and her dear hubby have yet to mail the 4 years worth of back tax returns I took the time to decipher and fill out for them last month. For crying out loud! All they had to do is sign on the dotted line as it were and drop them in the post. "Oh, we haven't had a chance yet..." How the hell long does it take to sign 4 tax returns? And dear, you work across the street from the damn post office! UUUUUGGGGHHHH!!!!!
 
To Whom It May Concern,

If you're cooking and you step away from the stove/oven for a prolonged period of time, turn off the stove/oven! My late father drilled that into me since I was old enough to reach the stovetop, and that was 45 years ago!

A woman literally destroyed her home, killing the family's kitten in the meantime, because she started cooking, stepped outside and started chatting with a neighbor. The only things not destroyed were a table and some items inside said table.

How do people even know the food is done without smoke detectors?

If it smells burnt, it's overdone. That's how I know (I know how it's supposed to smell, but I might get a probe thermometer to double-check for the kitchen if/when I have to "spend down" again.)

To Whom It May Concern,

If there's a severe thunderstorm/tornado warning, pull over, dismount your bike (either motorbike or bicycle) and take shelter. If there's hail, you could end up bruised at the very least. You were lucky that there's an emergency room nearby and we were lucky that there weren't any tornadoes on the east side...

To Whom It May Concern #2,

If you keep purchasing six 20oz bottles of diet cola at a time from the vending machine, there won't be any left for anyone else who cannot drink regular soda. Next time either you or your caretaker go to the store, pick up your very own diet soda, either the sixpack or 2-liter, and stick it in your refrigerator.

A$$hat,

If everyone else is facing/heading towards you, you might be going the wrong way on a one-way street. It's worse when it's raining :kitty:s and dogs. You almost had a head-on collision with a fooking public bus.

To Whom It May Concern,

Nobody needs to know firsthand what brand/color your BVDs are or whether they're brand new or well-worn. Please wear your jeans somewhere between your waist and your upper hips. Thank you.

To Whom It May Concern #2,

You drive a public transportation bus. You must have gotten your driver's license in a box of Cracker Jacks(tm) as the "secret toy surprise". I don't know how many times you nearly hit another vehicle on the road and I nearly flew off my seat. I'm d@mn lucky that I was on my way to my standing Tuesday doctor's appointment <just to "check under the 'hood'/'bonnet'" iykwim.>.

We must live near each other, since I was thinking the same thing at 4am this morning. Big thunderstorm came through and had at least 2 car alarms going off for 30+ minutes before they finally stopped.

In your case it was an "act of G!d/dess" that caused your rant. I was the unwilling bystander to (another) "domestic". :rolleyes:

Dear Fellow Motorist,

the light is green now. Kindly put down your (insert expletive of choice) phone and be on your way!:mad:

Better yet, pull the [insert expletive of choice] over and park your [insert expletive of choice] car!

Ditto road rage sh!t in school/hospital/construction/etc. zones!

Better still... turn the damn thing off until you get to your destination!

People don't know how to get to their destination without their phones... If automated cars were not around the corner I suspect we would require accelerometers shut off all functions other than GPS...
 
Anyone using GPS to get to our house always ends up at my neighbors place. Just yesterday my wife and a colleague got hopelessly lost following GPS misdirections. They finally had to stop and asked someone. Give me a printed map any old day.
 
Ya gotta find them...can't buy a 50 mile radius of balt or wash anymore...and some of the county maps.are going out. Everytime I cross.state lines I pick up one...but who knows how long that will be a thing....like trying to find a phone booth.
