What pissed you off today?

[ultramarineblue]

I'm cranky. I want to quit my job, find him a new girl, not talk to any of my friends any more. I basically want to throw a temper tantrum but can't because I'm supposed to be an adult. I feel like I'm going to explode on the inside but that will pass and I'll go back to being numb again. Oh to be numb forever.

Loosing a hollow wall anchor inside of a wall thanks to a torqued out drill. Twice.

As a side, yay for hanging things with a solid back for hiding the "learning process".

Stupid people are being stupid.

That's stupid.

I am far angrier than I should be about the post 'regarding my marriage." it brings up the big fucking elephant in my room that I haven't nearly solved my own problems yet.

And we all of us lead lives of compromise, one way or another.

Stella ~ as I said before, I admire you when you share things about your personal experiences, even when I'm disagreeing with your end analyses. As before, I'm personally disinclined to say much about what you've lived and live through and the road you've taken and are on because I have not walked it. In this instance, you aren't seeking help for a situation and so I worried that commenting on your experiences would almost belittle them.

If my lack of comment on your marriage situation is what triggered your post here, I apologize for it. It is abundantly brave to share as much as you do. It is far braver than I've ever been on these boards. Because you do post with honesty about where you are coming from, I even recommended recently that someone look to your (and a few other smart Litsters) posts for answers...even your posts with which I disagree.

We all are struggling to find that perfect place in life...I've yet to meet someone that has everything absolutely positively 1,000% perfect. I hope you have people in your life that can help you continue to sort out your marriage. Just because you "haven't solved all your problems yet" doesn't mean you can't help others. You and I just have traveled our rough spots differently and so I think that's why we'll have to agree to disagree on how to help that particular OP.

this thread. Fock you!

Realising facism and racism are beginning to become far more prevalent again than they have for awhile in our supposedly perfect western society...and the fact it is happening with a stealth which means many are living oblivious to what is happening around them.

I wasn't aware they ever became less prevalent...just more hidden.

Not that I was pissed off, but it was ...off putting:
someone accusing me of being a creationist, for correcting their wrong understanding of evolution.

I can agree to disagree, but I wish you would have shut your pie hole, frankly.

I asked her to talk about what she wanted.

You attacked her for talking about what she wanted.

I asked you to please not attack her for responding to my question, and you attacked her some more. Oh yeah, I've been right where she is.

Fuck that shit. Fuuuuuuck thaaaat. Fuck fuck fuck that.

DO NOT "comment" on my experiences, you have no ability or authority to do so. Just fucking trust me when I say that SOME women have different "needs" than YOU think are possible.

I always knew you were one of those religious types

Being called into work early today because the "boss" (read OWNER) can't take her f*cking head out of the sand and just deal with things. For 2 years, I've been the punching bag, go-between, and buffer for her, since she is sadistically underhanded and devious! She even pretends she is ME when she cannot handle interacting with person she just screwed over!
GRRRRRR!!!!!!!

Why is my knee hurting after a week of no gym, no weight lifting, and no cardio? WTF?

It's trying to remind you to get your damn picks in on the NFL pool.

And cymbline, ecstaticsub and nax, too.

 

[ultramarineblue]

I'm sick. Not the fever, stay home sick but the general don't feel well stopped up nose, sneezy kind of sick that persists for quite some time.

 

[Bandit58]

That I flushed the cannula with heparin and saline before I remembered to take the bloods for Sir's test today. Not good when the test is supposed to be for clotting factors *facepalm*

Oh well there's always Friday....

You have lost my respect. I will not "shut my pie hole" because I have a right to an opinion and I have a right to state it. You frankly don't have the authority to silence my voice.

Others asked what they were doing to deal with his trauma.

I called her out for not talking about what needed to be done for him.

I asked you to please not silence me just because my approach was different than yours, and you attacked me some more. Oh yeah, I've been in this spot before and I won't be silent again.

Your cussing has the feel of throwing a temper tantrum. I decline to delve into childish language just to fulfill my attempt at mirroring your post.

You have in the past been angry with me when you post something personal and I didn't comment. Now you are angry because in an attempt to acknowledge that you were brave again and to explain my lack of comment, you "command" me not to comment on your experiences. Which am I supposed to do: acknowledge or not acknowledge when you share? Let me know so I can comport myself next time.

The point...again...is some of us believe the way she can best get her needs fulfilled ~ for her and her husband's long term happiness~ is to show some empathy for her spouse. Where is your anger coming from? The lack of empathy shown you in the past? No one ever said she should stifle her desires the way you've been forced to stifle yours. I fear you are over-identifying with her and taking your anger out on me. If that helps you move forward in life, so be it. But that does not mean I will shut my pie hole.

 

[Stella_Omega]

You did not need to call her out right away. You -- and everyone else-- could have waited.

yes, this has pissed me off.

Oh, and if my cussing means you've lost your respect for me, then your respect isn't worth much at all. You sure aren't listening to anything else I've said either.

I didn't loose respect for you because you cussed; you are free to choose your words as am I and I chose not to cuss back at you.

I lost respect for you because as someone who has been repressed and suppressed beyond what most could endure, I find it problematic for you to tell me to shut up ~ again to repress and suppress my opinion just because you don't agree. I strive, too diligently perhaps, to never engage in behaviors about which I have complained or which I have felt the pain of enduring. You are, of course, free to live your life as you see fit; I just don't have to respect the manner in which you convey your opinions.

 

[Stella_Omega]

"too diligently."

That's a good phrase for it, yeah.

 

[Curious_in_Cali]

Breaking a glass and then having the tiny shards of glass in the carpet...reaching for my trusty vacuum to find it not working. You know that crook in the vacuum works that a random piece of seemingly harmless something~or~other gets stuck in it and renders your cleaning friend useless? Yeah, THAT coupled with a significant lack of wire coat hangers, patience, and inspiration for other creative solutions to "fix" it . Grumble.

You might be able to detach the hose and shake it out that way. Or empty the bag or whatever the dirt catches in. I found a whole pen in a vacuum cleaner once. Took pliers to get it out.

Thanks for your thoughts... It has been taken apart as far as I can without requesting the assistance of a screwdriver, pliers, and a digital camera to remember how to put it back together. I CAN do it, it is just NOT my favorite thing. I shook it and jiggled it every way I could with no luck. With as much of a pain as this has been thus far, it better be something awesome in there! A pen is indeed an impressive find !

So tired of being my own worst enemy. Tired of the same old fears. Just freaking tired.
