As I’ve not seen this for quite a while, I thought that I’d resurrect it, with a hefty cap nod to whosoever created it all those moons ago!
Post your rant, your frustrations and your vexations here and get them off your chest, then I’ll sit in judgement of whether it’s a just rant or not.
Away you go folks, spleen venting ahoy! |

Ok, here’s one, someone will post a brilliantly original thought out nuanced thread that ebbs and flows and it will barely get to double figures, then another sage will start one that goes ‘I likes armadillos I does!’ Bang 175 comments within an hour and everyone’s telling them how brilliant they are and I’m like they literally said nothing. |

Even with working from home cutting the commute out, there still aren't enough hours in the day because work takes up too much time. I want to go to the gym and be active, I want to play cricket during the week and on the weekend, but I also need to do the cleaning, and the food shopping. I want to spend time with family and friends, and I also want to take courses that can further my career. I have utterly no clue what to prioritise and think 8 hour working days are too long  |

"Ok I’ll rant coz I’ve got my second jab soon and I’m scared. I don’t like needles and I want some of that numbing cream that kids have. "
Approved - needles are horrible if you don't like them and numbing cream should be allowed for adults.

Just a small rant from me...
Eldest child hates mushrooms. Even the smell of them cooking has him screwing up his nose and shouting objectionable things, so youngest child and I have been denied the pleasure of mushrooms for years. I'm feeling slightly resentful. |

People should be banned from yelling in the streets after midnight during the week 
What happened to manners and respect for your neighbors?
Also, I went to town. No one wearing masks, no social distancing, people just shoving passed, can't be bothered to wait, queue etc 
I'm grumpy and tired and I really don't like people today |

Selfish people inhabit the same level of hell as people who spoil movies and put the empty milk carton back in the fridge.

Seriously, at your age, prioritise the course!! It’ll pay dividends for the rest later.
Cleaning comes last. Just do it as you go along, in small bouts. |
