The vent

My mother

I have a visitor here who's been ill since before Easter... the kind of ill that means he can't go anywhere except to the doctor and tropical diseases institute. Meaning that I can't go anywhere or do anything either. And I want to go ooooooout!

patience, nearly done, no?

I just made a huge batch of frozen margharitas and can't find the bloody straws! I know we have a full bag somewhere in this house...

I have straws at home! I know where they are!

my vent! People (too nice of a word, but I am trying to be less negative) who think they are wonderful, but in the real world, they are assholes, just they are too arrogant to listen to everybody, so they think that people like them, instead of the real fact that the rest of the world is too fucking polite to tell these assholes that they are really assholes.

I just realized I got a sunburn on my left shoulder... And a mosquito bite on the right.
Gotta love being so fair-skinned...
Well, I guess I can hope that it turns into a tan.

Saturday afternoon shopping. Absolutely shockingly rude service (please somebody remind me to write a letter of complaint) and then nothing but bloody smocks and trench coats. If I want a smock I'll get pregnant.

I did the dumbest thing I have ever done in my life and the only excuse I have is that I drove my boyfriend's (benzin) car all weekend and I had a really nasty headache this morning when I did it.
I went to put some gas in my (diesel) car on my way to work (and you can probably guess what happened). Yep, I put regular gas into the diesel tank. I drove less than 2 km before realizing what I did.

End result: Tow to BMW garage - 120€
Cost to repair - 1600€ - the fuel injection has to be replaced. Normally, they would not require it but, because it is a BMW leased car (that I will give back next Friday), it has to be done.
Ask me now if I have 1720€ in my bank account...

Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb.

see also jwadleigh, filling up with the wrong kind of petrol
I had a German looking at a price tag and saying: What, 100 Euros! Why, that's 200 DM! - Get used to it, Euro is the current currency and has been for five years.
(That's been pent up for quite a while)

kitkat64, did you fill up the entire tank? I am not sure how much of those costs were entirely necessary after only a few KMs. If you still had a fair bit of diesel left in the tank before you filled up, you should ahve just been able to get the tank drained and re-filled. Diesel engines can cope with a small amount of petrol without too much damage. It is not the same the other way round.

@OG - Well, normally, that might be the case, but I had only 25km to go before no gas. I only had 250km before I have to turn it in so I put in 19 liters of the non-diesel shit. There wouldn't have been a problem had it not been a BMW lease car that has to be returned in a week. The dealership said 'if the car had not been started after the gas went in, then we would not have to replace the fuel injection, but, since it did and it's a lease car, the injection must be replaced and it is not negotiable.' Had this been my own car, they would have just drained and flushed and I would be on my way. But BMW will not take it back unless it has a new injection system.

I still do not know how I did it.

no no no: Outlook has just died, I am wating for a huge mail with presentation material that webmail cannot handle. no no no again. going to be an early lunch with the hope all recovers in time.

How could I be so stupid?!?
I scraped the car's left front bumper against something on Saturday, and today this guy cuts in on me from the left lane - and I slammed on the brakes!!! Why??? Why did I not let him smash into my car? It would clearly have been his fault and the scrape would have been taken care of. Dammit!

Because you are a very honest person Sara and would have had one hell of a bad conscience and you wouldn't be able to sleep for months.

Ordered a case of expensive wine that arrived while I was in the UK. Put it in a safe spot when I came back since I didn't want to put it on the upstairs wine rack. Cannot find case of wine now. Fear I may have set it in the hall to take to the cellar and someone snagged it.

You will be repaid with good karma in the form of dead mice.

Bladder infection... God's special punishment for cute girls with new boyfriends... The body is an amazing design and all that, but He certainly didn't put enough thought into female bladder design.

Yay, antibiotics and no sex for a week... F**K!

Note to fecktard I share flat with who couldn't be any more of the wrong kind of german if he tried:

if you ever start repeatedly banging on the bathroom door while I'm having a shower and shout "Warum ist die Tür geschlossen?", I will eviscerate you. I will take inordinate pleasure in picking up the nearest hot object and branding the word "ANAL - LANA - ANAL" onto your forehead for the world to know. You absolute, complete, total, utter, unequivocal fuckmonkey.

I will glady pull your ass over your head to complete your anality. Your journey to the Arse-Side will be complete.

I'm in the bathroom, I'm having a shower, I want privacy, I lock the door. That's what we do in my country.
And when I'm in the bathroom, I lock the door and it becomes my country. No quizzical looks or "Häääää?"s when I come out, like I've done something wrong or strange in locking the fucking bathroom door, you moron. Get away to fuck Du dummer Flachwichser, saudepparda Arschmader.

Fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck-fuck off you ultimate fuckwad.

Retard. AAAAAARRRGGGHHHHH.

I was going to vent, but now I am laughing to hard.

I am venting for a co-worker who does not frequent this forum:


You're welcome, co-worker.

German people...READ SIGNS.

My garden gate has a big sign on it saying to beware of the dog (in German). Do not complain to me when you ignore the big, full colour, written-in-German sign and come through the gate without invitation.

If my dog jumps up, knocks you over etc, then it is not my problem.

READ THE SIGN...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!

(Though watching some official pillock from the Freising Townhall running off is amusing ) Especially now he has to write an official letter of apology!

I haven't been laid in ages.

ok...so everything is a little stressful, I haven't had much sleep, 2 evenings (yesterday and tonight) to pack up all my belongings and move...now tonight seems to be likely to be snapped up by my lovely workplace...by the lady who checks whether stuff is in line by holding a ruler up to my monitor...by the woman who seems to always manage to increase the amount of time it takes to do something by 300%...who asks for the impossible and accepts nothing less...and I'm bloody tired and need to pack the rest of my crap (why oh why do I own so much rubbish!!) ..which means no sleep for me tonight...tomorrow morning the stuff is being collected for storage... I want to go home and lock myself in the bathroom with a couple of bottles of wine!!!

OK, so I've got stacks of work to get through and a timetable on an updated manual to write which my boss is totally aware of and is pushing all the time so why does he casually throw a document on my desk that I should proof read for him that is approx. 30 pages long and consists mainly of text such as this:-

"The Software installation include at first the general installation of the system files to your computer. It is the following description item 2.1 Program files installation meant. It is for the different Window version the same and the second step is the driver installation which is for each Windows version different. Use for your Window version the respective section."

(And why am I also spending time venting the impossibility of his expectations on this forum, when I should be knuckling down and doing it!)

Four words: spider in the shower!!!

A friend of mine who is acting really childish/immature about something, she asked advice, then didn't like what I told her and is since acting like a beleidigte Leberwurst.
I don't expect her to follow my advice, but she expects me to tell her only what she wants to hear (obviously), and I am not going to tell her that because I cannot support it. And it kind of pisses me off that she is now acting like this just because she cannot take criticism well and takes everything personally.

Tell her to fuck off and die then. Add a scissor-kick to the back of the head for good measure a-la Chuck Norris. It'll work wonders.

Ah, I can't do that. I'm too nice for that. I was considering telling her that I think she is acting shitty and childish andthat she should treat her friends better, but she would be even more beleidigt then I think, so I'll just leave her alone, and not contact her until I hear from her. She only reads things into what I say anyway (easy to do online). Maybe I'll run into her on the tram sometime, then I'll see how she's acting then (we live on the same tram line).

Say nothing then. Just go with the scissor-kick, trust me.

But I think she may not want to be my friend anymore after that, and I mean I don't want that either.

Stop moaning about her then!

Venting is what this topic is for, so stfu.

I did not get the job. So today I sent off 14 resumes to 14 jobs I do not want. The trials and tribulations of living in a city that has such a large amount of artist that work at jobs that allow you the freedom to be an artist.

fuck fuck fuck, spent the afternoon looking for the perfect pair of summer sandles with no luck! Everything is butt fugly in gold, silver, bronze or leopard print or full of fucking sequines. I am turning 40, I am not a mail-order Bride or hooker.So, where can a normal person get a nice pair of plain sandles without paying 200 euro?

Try here!

ARGH, only 30 days left at my piece of crap job! Today has been especially bad and I want so badly to walk out the door and never look back. Oh, and I'd especially like to bash my asshole boss's face in!

Phew, needed to get that out.

I took a nap yesterday that was supposed to be 1.5 hours and accidentially turned into 4 hours (I didn't wake up). Since then I have had a headache, and I woke up this morning, and still have that damn headache!

Had to do a money transfer from my Sparkasse account so now my Deutsch bank account is almost empty. *sigh*

Jesus H Christ.

I left my EC card and credit card on a bus in Herrsching last weekend (yes, I was drunk, I know I'm an idiot). I called to cancel them first thing on Monday, and asked to have replacement cards mailed out ASAP.

It is now Friday. I just called my flatmate to ask if anything came in the post for me. Still nothing. No cards. No PIN numbers.

Oh, but I got my Visa bill right on schedule.

I hate it when something annoying happens, me and my husband are both really pissed off about it and end up taking it out on each other and having an argument about something stupid.

In short, I was in London two days ago and decided to buy a drink from McDonalds...and there was the Monopoly thing going on. I pulled out the ticket off of my cup and it only had '100,000' and some small print on it. Since I was already behind schedule, I threw it in a shopping bag and figured I need another one or two pieces to win anything...I was hoping i would get free fries or something.

When my brother showed me a normal monopoly piece the next day...it was only then that I realized i just threw away a instant 100,000 pound ticket - a one in three chance to win. Since I threw the shopping bag away somewhere in pubic trash at covent garden, I knew that I had just lost what i had never gained. Mother fucker, do i feel like an idiot. That is what you call a bad day. Probably couldnt claim it, but still...

Argggghhhhhh I want a normal life.

Fook off

CUNTS!!!

Bloody ex-communist idiots. If you come to work in financial services at least understand it's about capitalism and making money, not bloody social work you retarded eastern euro from the last dictatorship in europe dumb little cow. aaarrggggghhhhh. your imcompetence and misunderstanding about LBOs is delaying my trip to the beer garden. where's the stasi when you need them?

Albanian? Or am I mixing up dictators?

oooooh, that's first, Kay makes a mistake She's Belorussian. Isn't Albania a "democracy" now.

I guess my time to vent...Besides having only 2 weeks left at a job I hate with a man who has no idea how to run a small business let alone organize shit...bastard changes his mind every other day. And we have the turn over rate of McD's...actually I think they keep their employees longer then we do! Thank god only two weeks left, then 3 weeks till my move. But when the new woman starts since she is an experienced office manager, I become her bitch, WTF???
On top of this weird fucking pain in the right side of my abdomen for the past 6 days. Having no health insurance and going to the ER anyway to have them tell you well we don't know what it is, but your not dying...That was 4 days ago and the pain is still here!
Fuck it is only lunch time and I could use a beer...or 6...
3 weeks 2 days and counting till I catch my plane...god knows what crap I will deal with there, but at least I will be with my bf finally and he can share in my misery.

You're right, I'd forgotten about Lukashenko, he's been rather quiet of late.

Matte boards are not ready yet and show is in three days. No one to blame but myself, well there is the fella that created procrastination.

oh! how many photos will you have at the show (i'm assuming they're photos and not drawings/paintings)

Could be worse, you could be mine ...
EDIT: Nah you couldn't
