The Rant/Venting thread

[Emily]

Got something on your chest? Get it off here. It can be anything that bothers you - school, parents, life in general... just get it off your mind on this thread.

[Teh Squishy]

Well I'm a bit upset over my first locked thread on TBC. T__T I tried to start an honest discussion about the increasingly popular pairing of Danny/Tim, and it was called "ridiculous" and it was locked. Was it ridiculous? I didn't think so.

I just got an email from my friend saying for me to leave her alone. I was just trying to be nice to her, and she doesn't want me talking to her. I feel so bad... I'm annoying....

[sojuske]

I hate it when people don't credit.
It hasn't been happening with my stuff, but with my friends. (well, mine too, but not to such a degree)
I was sent -my own- caps from Hot tomorrows by a guy saying "ooh, *someone* gave me these great pics. You should see them"
They were mine.
The avatar the guy was using, he got the pic from that same person. there was a watermark on that pic.
It was from Rud's gif.
Talking about a live mystic knights version of violent love (which I am reticent to share myself) that *someone* had and that I should get it.
I had it, it was Sel's private stash. The girl got it through Rina who got it from Sel. Rina and I both got it at the same time and Sel wasn't too sure about sharing it because it's so rare and it took her so long to find. This guy didn't know that, and so kept praising *someone* for finding it.
Again with caps, shown caps to something "never before seen"
Were Sel's.
He had the palace live. The Cut palace live. Something Sel did -not- share to my knowledge with anyone but Rina and I. Rina gave it to Caity and *someone*, in the cut version asking them not to share it readily, seeing as something so rare should be treasured. And if need be sent, but credited to Sel. CAuse she spent -years- finding this.
This guy had that live. Never even heard of sel. *someone* sent it to him without crediting her. That angers me.
I cannot tell Rina as she would withdraw from sharing or trading altogether. I cannot approach *someone* as she would get mad and then Rina would get involved.
As a final note, -everything- I got that I didn't buy. All my lives, all my vids, I got from Sel or Rina.
Sel's stuff I don't normally send. Rina's stuff I share to limits. But I get it from them. 93 live I got from Solle. I'm making it absolutely clear that you know, I didn't find it all myself. Some I did
Did it there, Urg, EP demos, Hey! live, etc. But I get my stuff through Rina. And you all know this. I say it a lot.
Oh yes, *someone* Also, on their sig, has two gifs.
One of them Rina made. One of them Sel made.
Neither have credit made to them underneath. *points* I credit Rina. She doesn't credit either.
Makes me want to not make gifs or share caps or share lives or anything... and now I understand how Rina feels.
Thank you all and good night.

I've been really really sick for the past week. So, of course, I had to go to this stupid talent competition for two days yesterday and the day before to play my stupid flute. I lost anyway, so five months of being beeaten up for all my hard work didn't pay off and I had to leave my house for two days to go an hour and a half away to be sick. Then I had auditions for my school play afterwards that I couldn't miss. We had to dance and sing for thirty seconds, and my nose was running like crazy and my throat was killing me. I had to change the song I was practicing (No Good Deed from Wicked for anyone who cares) because the long held notes would kill my poor throat, so I ended up doing the end of Tears to Shed. Luckily, it didn't sound as bad as I feared, but it was very painful and all I wanted to do was curl up in bed. *SCREAMS*

On the plus side, I now have an awesome Bonejangles sweatshirt!

[Moonlight]

Ugh... my friend (who I mentioned before) is trying to get me to leave her alone. Why?! I'm her friend! She says she wants to MAKE friends, but she is already friends w/ everyone in our class!!

and why me? Why does she have to pick on ME? I'm so mad right now I could EXPLODE!!

EDIT: I am exploding now!! She is officially not my friend anymore b/c she doesn't like me.

[Bonejangles rox]

Apparently I did sound as bad as I feared, because I DIDN'T MAKE THE PLAY!!! I get insanely PO'd when I get a bad part, but not getting a part at ALL just makes me want to KILL someone! Preferably the ***** who directes this piece of crap who wouldn't know talent if it hit her in the eye. And I had a concert for my school band last night, and we played like crap. So now we're all going to fail band and I've never failed anything in my life, so with this and the godawful play, WOrld War 3 is going to start any day now!

[EbonyStar]

My list (titled Authors I Need To Send A Letter Of Almost Complete Agitation To) is growing increasingly longer and longer and longer

Thank you, Clive Barker

I admit, that rant wasn't worth ranting about. I just get way into books and movies

[Girl Anachronism]

People on the Everything Johnny message board irritate me. Some people on there are so ignorant!! There is a whole 17 page topic on the board about nothing, just two people are chatting back and forth spamming up the board. I mean,really...If they want to chat with eachother about things totally random they should get on AIM or something.
And then there are others who post topics about things that have already been discussed and people who type in chatspeak like 'u' instead of 'you' which is against the rules and even after being warned they still do it.
Jeez....Things like that just really annoy me. I'm going to stop going on that site.

The TBC has taken a swift downward slope

That new Ball and Socket party thread made my blood boil

I tried to find some fanfics for my new obsession, Abarat (as many of you already know ^.^;;, and carelessly ignored the description of the fic. Big mistake...
Maybe it's just my own personal tastes, but there are some characters who should, by all means, NOT be in slash fics.

[Teh Squishy]

I have a serious rant this time. I'm sick to death of homophobia.

Now, as many of you now, I'm an out-and-proud lesbian who wishes to be a boy. My parents have been absolutely unsupportive since the day I came out to them. dad pretends nothing ever happened, mom pokes fun at me, and they both think that I'm a sinner and on the wrong path right to hell.

BULL.......CRAP.

Some of the nicest people I know are gay, my favorite actress (Ellen Degeneres!!) is lesbian, and everyone i've ever talked to who are queer are very nice and understanding, something I WISH I could say of my family. If I came out to my EXTENDED family, who are even MORE homophobic than my immediate, I would be disowned. I know it.

Right now, I'm basically living a lie. My parents all but think that I've given up on it, like it was a "phase" i was going through at the time. No. It's not. I still am who I am.

One of the worst things that they ever said to me was when I said, "Well, what do you want for me to do? Deny who I am?" Guess what they said.

"You'd DO that for us? We're touched."

YES FRIENDS, they ENCOURAGED me to live a lie, pretend to like boys, get married and pop out babies like a good little mormon girl should. THANKS A LOT, FAM!! LOVE YOU TOO!!!

They think I'll have a negative influence on Sara, my baby sister (she's 12.) Now....I've had a negative influence on her for YEARS, I AM the one who taught her how to burp after all. If anything, I'd be a GOOD influence and tell her to be whoever she wants to be and to be true to herself. Me being gay wouldn't change our relationship, it would strengthen it.

Or at least, that's what I thought....

Tonight was a GREAT let's-bash-squishy night. well, mom was leaving for work, and She starts talking about an old friend of hers that was really beautiful inside and out, and happens to mention that her friend's daughter just graduated high school. now, i was curious, and I asked, "Well, is her daughter hot too?" She laughed and said, "yeah, she looks exactly like her mom....want me to hook you up?" now, that's a bit annoying, but I laughed at it and jokingly said, "sure! why not?"

THEN DAD SAID.....

"Ugh, stop it! I'm going to puke!!"

So did my sister.

Granted, she doesn't know. I haven't come out to her yet. But.....this shows that she won't ever see me in the same light once I do. She's getting her negative anti-gay ideas from church, I just know it. Mormonism is probably the most anti-gay church known to man. Anyway, it hurt a LOT.

*sigh* I'm done.

THANK GOD I DON'T FEEL THE SAME WAY!!

Thank you, Erica! You have voiced the exact same opinions on EJ Chat. I hate that PinCushion girl... she's just stupid and she acts like she knows more about Tim Burton and Danny Elfman. She also messes up the Yes or No game because she's too retarded to understand the difference between "The Up Down Middle Game" and "Yes or No". I swear to God, you and I are the only people there with any sort of intelligence.

It's worse than Depp Impact's board!

Anyways, JohnnyDeppWeb is a pretty nice forum. (even though they won't let me be a moderator! ) It's still better.

I'm sorry about your family, Squishy, I really am. It's like when I wanted to join GSA at my high school... my parents (My dad moreso than my Mom) was a bit agitated. He couldn't understand why I wanted to be a part of the Gay-Straight Alliance. I'm not gay, but I respect the LBGT so much and I felt like I had to be a part of the club. Eventually, my dad realized that I had my heart set on being a part of it and learned to deal with it. He doesn't seem to mind now... but oh my goodness, back then he hated the whole idea.


Anyways, here's my rant:


I'm frustrated with Bursar - there's still a block in my account and this means I cannot access my meal plan therefore, I can't eat! I don't have much money so I can't buy food. To make things worse, I got a call from my RHD saying that I need to take of this today or tomorrow or else I'm going to have my room code changed...

I really sometimes wish I had decided to transfer, but unfortunately my grades weren't very good last semester so I couldn't. I mean, I'm under stress as it is because of classes and all - now I have to deal with getting my account unblocked - and I can't sign a waiver because I don't have any "official documents" proving I was sick (I was sick and and I missed class, but was too weak to get up to the clinic).

The party thread may very well end up being the death of those that party there often

It may, but it may not as well

[Liz]

The party threads are for FUN and hanging out w/ characters and each other. The ranting thread is for telling people about your problems. If you rant on the party threads, you cause trouble & just ruin the fun atmosphere. Not that we don't care about your problems, it's just not the place for it.

Don't stop the fun just because of some misunderstandings.

[Emma]

Aww, I knew my first party thread would get locked...
Aww great, now I'm in a terrible mood... *sulks in a corner*
