Vent A Frustration Thread

[amazingfantasy15]

Mine has a much snappier, more appealing name.

Anyways, I'm starting to get annoyed with people in Rock/Metal type internet forums that keep stating Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley keep KISS alive because of greed. I mean come on, Ace Frehley was the one that married a high society rich girl.

Plus they're not keeping it alive for greed, they started it for greed. It's not like the Kiss merchandising machine just started, it's been around since the beginning. No one can ever say Kiss sold out, they're doing everything exactly how they always have.

Frustration #23542

People who walk around campus texting and not paying attention where they are going.
I can't walk to class without at least one person running into me or almost running into me because their eyes are glued to their phone and not in front of them.

On a "vindication" note. The other day I saw a kid full speed walk into someone's back while texting. Cellphone kid drops his phone just as the other guy turns around to see what was going on, and steps directly onto the phone. Cellphone = dead. I laughed.

A guy I know who does tattoos did the Monster logo on some guy awhile back.
It was pretty lame.

Crap, my apartment is trying to kill me. Roughly forty minutes ago I got up out of bed to go to the bathroom and when I opened my door the globe covering the light fixture fell down near me. I really lucked out in that all I received was a 1/2 inch slice near my thumb and several small nicks on my forearm. I'm still just a little bit shaken up by the experience.

Someone I know who is about to get laid off is contemplating buying a flatscreen TV on friday just because it will be half price. When she loses her job she's gonna be crying for money. Why are we so obsessed with buying stuff even when can't afford it?

I know a guy who tries to make himself seem more important by pretending not to know people. You can ask him about someone you both saw a week ago and he'll say, "Who? Oh that guy? Well I guess I know who that is..."

The same guy also told me he might not be able to see a movie one night because he had a date with a girl when it was really him, the girl and some others hanging out as a group.

If one more Jesus freak tells me flat out how much they hate gay people I'm going to go postal and stab them. Then spend my time in jail, regretting nothing!

I showed up to rec hockey tonight to referee and, for the fourth time this season, the games were cancelled tonight despite my schedule CLEARLY showing my name on it for tonight.

It can't be that hard to get the referee coordinator on the same page as the league scheduler.

Seriously, anyone like that is not a Jesus Freak, they're just freaks. There is nowhere in the Bible that states Christians should heap hatred on people because they chose things that go against Christian values. Always remind these people to love thy neighbor as they would love themselves, that includes gay/lesbians.

My gripe today? I have no money and can't make the wonderful fruit salad we usually have every year. I hope that my dad will float me a loan.

My gf keeps saying how she loves going to her house in the South of France which is a 5 hour drive from where we live which only has one bedroom, no help and is in the middle of nowhere with the closest thing being a 30 minute to 1 hour drive. I hate the house.

Now next year she has decided she will be taking two weeks holiday to her house which means that she has less days available to her for the both of us whereas I take her to five star hotels and to a house (with all the luxuries) I have the use of.

It is very frustrating to me that my holidays are limited due to her being adamant about her house which she knows I don't like. Plus on top of that the holidays we take together do not cost her anything.

I understand how some people will probably shake their heads reading the above but I must say it is a frustration for me and one I put up with out of love.

The house sounds like it could be romantic? If you hate spending time with her (and just her with no restaurants and 'help') then ...why are you with her??

I am one of those head shakers.

Seems like you put a lot of value in The Good Life, The Expensive Things... The 'Luxuries'. You should slum it, man. **** the help (bet you have already heh).

It's not about the monEy... it's about sending a mEhSij.

Hey, I'll go out with you if you ditch your girlfriend. You sound like a decent man who just wants to be sensible about things.

And here's a fresh, new frustration for you all. I'm frustrated with the fact I want to go back to being a simple, ignorant, innocent person like I was before but I know I can't. It's pretty much been the whole reason why I've been so moody lately instead of the happy go lucky girl I was. It's gotten so bad even my co-workers are starting to worry about me, and you know it's bad when the people you work with feel this way. This song pretty much sums up how I feel:


Can anyone tell me how to lose a childhood I never really had in the first place?

Thank you for the offer Godzilla but I don't think it is very realistic given we do not even know each other.

My solution to my frustrations would be letting go of my currrent gf in the hope of finding love again. But I have little faith I would even though I am fairly confident that I would find women to go out with me.

I do not know what happenned to you but there must be some happy things you can attach yourself to. Maybe it is just the city you live in or certain activities you have. Other things is what little things can you do to improve your circumstances. Those things can build up.

I have been lucky for the most part economically and therefore I may not be the best peron to empathise but I do have the belief there is a solution out there to most problems even though the solution may be arduous.

I like the way you articulate yourself.

Well, I'm still available for the time being. But I'm always willing to be friends with you because you seem like a supportive, decent, nice guy and I need more of those sorts of people in my life.

The house sounds like it could be romantic? If you hate spending time with her (and just her with no restaurants and 'help') then ...why are you with her??

First off, thank you for the compliment above.

I did go there but there is nothing to do and she does not want to stay all day in bed. She likes the nature and doing things which I do not enjoy. Things like taking care of the flower bed she has and cooking. If it was not a 5 hour dive I could see myself going there for the weekend to make her happy but a whole week being bored out of my mind is a bit too much. I was happy to come back after spending 4 days there.

Regarding romance, I do my best but it is difficult at times and very much in her house which is also in the middle of a compound of Dutch people (there are 5 attached houses) and everyone can see us when we are sitting on her terrace.

I am more the type who likes playing golf or games in general when I am on vacation. The last thing I want to do is set the table or clear it. I do not like domestic work and never did. She loves doing things around the home.

My main point here is the fact that I am not given a choice. I would be more then willing for us to choose together a place we could both enjoy but her house is something she will never sell. I did have her sacrifice a few things to be with me (not money wise but other things that were close to her heart) and I feel as if she wants me to pay for it.

And we do live together where we have no 'help' when we are at home so we do spend ample time together.

No I have not......the 'help' do not look like movie stars pr playboy models most of time .

And I like the good life given I can afford certain aspects of it but I have slummed it before including times when I had very little and questionned where I was going to get money for food. I have also been around some very privelaged people most if not all my life and therefore my have a psychological issue with it.

With regard to my gf, I do go to some places for her because she wants to eventhough I could afford better and that is to make her happy. But I do not want to sacrifice my own vacation time doing things I do not enjoy.

Thank you for the offer. I will keep it in mind and all my best wishes for you.
