You've got rants in your pants

Tasteticle

It has been a while dudes

It has been a while since we got our rants on

I miss them

Let me get the ball rolling

I almost got into a physical altercation with a gentleman who seemed to be the stunt double for the fucking hulk

over

a theatre seat

basically we were saving a seat for my buddy who was running late

and this dude decides that "this seat will be my seat"

when I told him I was saving it for a friend he picked up my jacket that was in the seat, threw it on the ground and stomped on it

he stomped on it!

it was so ridiculous and mind blowing to me that the only thing I could muster up was laughter at how ridiculous this huge hulk of a man looked stomping on my tiny jacket in extreme rage

and then declared he was ready to take me on over it

he actually asked if I "wanted to go outside"

I had never seen this guy before in my life!!

like

how fucking roided out do you have to be to be ready to throw down over a fucking MOVIE SEAT

sweet jebus

so basically I am hating on people who through a fucking shitfest for no goddamn reason at this moment

what are you hating on?

Sheri

So did he get the seat or not?

Scudo

that is insane, was it crowded?

was it The Smurfs?

tynic

what I have in my pants, man was not meant to ken

woman neither
it's a zone of mystery and horror.

I'm hating on the stupid garbage that's always on my youtube front page and how in the last version of the front page I could hide it all and just have my subscription updates and a search bar, the way god intended.

Hunter

What a nut job.

Also, what if that nutjob ran into guy with gun nutjob. It's like an immovable moron meets an irresistible fucktard.

Sweeney Tom

That guy's dog must have been kicked an hour prior to this

No way does someone try to start a fight over a seat unless he got pissed off already earlier in the day

Goose!

Buck Nasty

Abracadaniel

it was a gay pornographic film theater and it was a gay pornographic film and you were sexually role playing

Tasteticle

hahaha oh he got that seat

I was not about to start a fight over a goddamn theatre seat

It was not packed at all so we just kind of moved over

I told him he was being an incredulous jackass

and other people booed him

the end

Well I'm not sure how serious Tasteicle was being with his implication, but steroids do make people irrationally angry and more prone to violence.

Langly

i was hating on some comics stuff in the batman thread but my weekly rant about that shit is done for now


uhhhhh

the one thing I hate most about working in admissions is entitled international students?

Oh sup dude no you can't just roll in here demanding that we waive all of our entrance fees for you, take the fucking TOEFL or IELTS and the GRE and also how about get your transcripts and then we'll talk. I'm sorry that you can't just put your name down on a piece of paper and get into grad school, but that is reality.

Langly

also the deadline was three weeks ago get the fuck out of here.

Sheri

Don't they have security or something

Shoulda had him forcibly removed

Sued him for damages to your jacket

crwth

i hate when i walk into my school's admissions office at all because everyone who works for admissions smells like a fart

Langly

well your admissions office must suck because ours has cookies and coffee all the time so it smells like a cafe

not for students just for us

crwth

no i secretly went there and it smelled like farts and the fart smell was mostly coming from you!

Scudo

that was the emissions office, crwth

I am now working at a restaurant that a friend opened in a mall
and this one dude was like "could you please cut my bread so that the insides are exactly flat" and he made me do it over with new loaves three times

and then there's a kid who just mooches on samples all day in the mall
like literally does several runs of the food court just eating samples and buying nothing, does not answer questions about why he is doing so
so once I made an incredibly nasty whey protein smoothie and put it into sample cups and put them out when he came around
he gagged
and I removed the rest, satisfied with my petty revenge

Langly

oh man tasty and i were at the mall the other day, and this couple was walking so slowly in front of us, it was mind boggling. and we had a stroller! it was the worst.

then we got around then, looked in a window, took a turn, and they were right back in front of us! it was like a modern retelling of the tortoise and the hare.

I have this like, chunk of flesh from my cheek, and it's all gooey and gross, and it's jutting out onto my back-most molar on the left side and it is annoying. It doesn't really hurt but just knowing it's there drives me crazy. And I can't stop tongueing it and I just want it to go away!!!!

also my left lip/chin area has been numb for a week and now it's starting to itch/feel weird and that's making me more annoyed.

So for my current gig this summer we had to go to the next city over for a workshop/performance viewing type thing. My whole team had to go to this thing, and for whatever reason our organization couldn't charter a van or something to take us all there and back, so we ended up taking five cars or something and dealt with a logistical parking nightmare in the city.

At one point the caravan i was with parked curbside, allegedly near the area we were supposed to be (our managing staff didnt bother providing us with an exact street address either; convenient!). Fortunately a very nice young couple spotted us some change for the over-priced meters (to be used temporarily) and then directed us towards the theater. I had a feeling the spot my car was in was a no-parking zone (there wasn't a meter and I was next to a sign stating "no standing at all times."). But i needed to know where the place actually was before moving my car to an actual parking lot/garage. It only took five minutes to get there so I figure the car was fine right?

Wrong within that timeframe some cop must have been on my ass and there was a parking violation slip on my windshield. Thirty dollars, in 5-10 minutes. It's not the end of the world (and i found the situation humorous), but if the organization i'm working for right now doesn't help reimburse me in some way with this ticket, I might have to start a grievance or something because this situation is *exactly* why you rent a van when a group of 10 people need to go to a function that is not in the nearby area.

Fortunately the guy running the parking lot i moved to was incredibly friendly and helpful (the lot was small and packed requiring him to park and move cars around himself). I ended up tipping him three bucks as we were leaving. Probably the one bright moment of this rather wrangled event.

I'll do you one better; people that STOP AND TALK AT THE END OF AN ESCALATOR! Then they get all huffy when everyone runs into them.

Also, that story you told was messed up. That guy was a total dick.

I am sick to fucking death of grownups who don't understand that using their hands to grab food off of the salad bar is completely fucking disgusting and makes my job even harder than it already is.

Also children whose parents don't supervise them and they do similar and often worse things.

Langly

zay this is an important question:

have you recently, or ever, been near large amounts of radiation and/or dipped into toxic waste?

I'll keep it short: The Navy kicked me out of boot camp cause they didn't want to treat testicular cancer. Too expensive.

30 dollars for a parking ticket is hilarious and depressing to me

ours are usually around $200

a artist on my tumblr drew men dressed and posed the same way wonder woman was on a cover to point out how ridiculous a 'sexy' pose and outfit is for a tough crimefighter and a bunch of tumblr feminists jumped on her for making fun of homos because they have no idea what the fuck

also the patriarchy hasnt been burned down yet so that kind of put a damper on my day

For some reason this just made me think how much free food I could get from a mall food court or something if I just mocked up some kind of bogus survey and carried a clipboard around.

Actually I'm just completely fucking sick of my job in general. Until Monday night I hadn't had time to take any kind of a break in about three weeks. And that was only because I had to catch a bus so I got there early and figured 'fuck it' and got some of my sidework done before clocking in so I'd actually be kind of ahead for once.

... I'm going to stop ranting about work now for fear that I might never actually stop. ever.
