It's Thursday, it's hot, the pollen count is very high so it must be time for ranting.
Some ground rules to assist you:
1. People not replying to your messages is not a reason to rant
2. Preferences are not a reason to rant
3. Half arsed rants with very little detail get short shrift
Over to you fabbers. Risk it for a biscuit |

Guys (not experienced it from the ladies yet) who give your bio a cursory glance n include a keyword you mention in their header of messages. Getting your hopes up that they've understood what you've written, but when you open it, it's a generic copy n paste blah which screams "blanket" message.
Not only that, they send it multiple times even after you've declined politely and sarcastically.
I realise I could just block but this is a rant and therefore useful suggestions aren't needed  |

"My digestive biscuit is to big to dunk in one so I have to dip the edge eat it then turn the biscuit to redunk,
Don't that piss you off !
 "
Break it in half and dunk each side. Problem solved and all the calories leak out when broken so doubly good

You've opened yourself to a counter rant there but I'm approving for the not taking no and copy and paste elements |

It’s nearly the end of June and I’ve not managed to get to a naturist beach yet. And only arranged one naturist massage session with one couple - had fun though. Must try harder..... |

"When your clients helicopter is always late, then comes out and never apologises! Rude. "
I hate that - just a nightmare. Transferring the stash to the speedboat is delayed and the po po are getting closer. It's so stressful

"Manchester is a long way away and I want to explore.  "
It's 2 hours from Euston to Manchester on one of the super duper trains. Day tripable.
No excuses - go invade Mancland and have a Manchester Tart for me

People moaning at work it's hot....
Ok, yes the temperature has gone up
But you're walking round in the same clothes you wearing in March - Dress appropriately for the weather.
Can't sleep, too sweaty - Buy a fan
You feel weak, exhausted, massive headache - I've been with you for 5hrs, I've not seen you drink once, I'm on my 3rd litre of water.
You're dehydrated.
You can't sit outside you burn - You don't use sunscreen, you admitted that last week when you phoned in sick with sunburn! Factor 50 & sit in the shadier part of your garden
Your dog is struggling too - You bought a fucking Husky, we don't live in the Arctic FFS, what did you expect?
Ok rant over

Clients and unrealistic expectations.
You issue a massively complicated tender enquiry with a ridiculously short return? No problem, I'll sort it.
You include dozens if specialist bespoke items, only available once designed, from countries in the far flung reaches of the galaxy, who need 10 weeks longer than I've got to quote, and you refuse my EOT or deviation from spec request, please don't be surprised (or cunty) when you get a caveated return from me.
You cunt. |

It's too fucking hot and I hate sweating in a bad way - the summer needs to fuck off!
I hate summer clothes, people blaring their shit music in their cars and gardens, loads of people outside standing in the way wearing ridiculous summer outfits with their millions of brats, hayfever, bitey creature cunts!
Spiders thinking its OK to come in my house, my chavvy neighbors smoking millions of fags outside all day long so the smoke comes in my windows,
And don't even get me started on summer shoes!

People poking a hornets nest.
Taken 8 months to bury something I found extremely painful and move on, within weeks of that release and finally being free of the hurt and anger, the catalyst doesn't seem satisfied and is red ragging the bull.

Bloody work!
I was due my annual review (and potential pay increase) in March, it's nearly July, I still haven't received it and its been postponed *again*!
I'm on the bones of my arse financially, I'm earning pence more than the rest of my team for twice the work and I'm expected to suck it up whilst dealing with a serious bout of (mostly financially based) anxiety.
Fucking arsehole!!!

"My dark chocolate digestives have melted together. Do you know how that’s going to ruin my day? 
And yet in the heatwave thread it was "bring it on"
Karma is a cruel mistress hehe "
Yeah but bring it on didn’t include my snacks. That’s just plain cruel  |

I'd like to apend my previous rant.
Employers who give you a job with a free hand, promise you everything you need to fulfill the brief in terms of budget, resources, technology and manpower.
But then fail to deliver any of them, despite your requests for all the things they promised.
And then decide to dismiss you because you can't do the job they employed you to do.
Welcome to my fucking day. |

That sounds ridiculous. Is there anything contractual that you can start casually dropping in to the conversations on the matter?

In time honoured fab tradition, did you do adequate due diligence of your intended meet/employer before signing up/arranging to meet them?

Put chocolate eclairs in proper packaging FFS. How hard can it be. They do it for effin eggs. And they're not even covered in bastardin' chocolate. I am sick of cutting my effin tongue on the effin razor sharp plastic packaging (that's another thing - what's with all the effin' plastic? Just put a small window in so we can see that there's eclairs in there and you're not ripping us off with custard slices). Where was I? Oh aye. Cutting my tongue cos I have to lick 99% of the effin chocolate off the bastardin' packet. Eclairs are not the cake equivalent of tequila shots. You don't take a bite of eclair and then lick the chocolate off the box FFS. Sort it out.
Right. Off to eat an eclair. |

If you know it happens then why do you not have a spoon for these eventualities?

Can she have a second birthday when you are back where she opens it and you treat her too?
