Almost that magical time of year, Festivus, http://festivusweb.com/. Time for the airing of grievances.

I'm gonna go with congress super committee, can't even decide how to announce they failed... and yet congress can declare pizza a vegetable.......

Blue tooth users.

The now over used pointless phrases such as:
."true story?"....Just sayin' "....Really... Epic (Epic pow brah)?"

Sweatpants that say "PINK" across the *kitten* that are some color other than pink. Usually accompanied by Uggs and lot's of "OMG's," "really's" and "like's"

I GOT A LOTTA PROBLEMS WITH YOU PEOPLE!

    You, of all people, should be pleased with the 'pizza as a vegetable' designation.

    I'd like to air a grievance with the Kardashians. They got a lotta nerve to act like they're some kind of American Royalty, when they're nothing but reality TV trash. They're the Jersey Shore of the West Coast. And poor Bruce Jenner's face... They should have a fake Quinceanera to get money to fix it.

    Pretty much any clothing that is logo'd loudly. Think sparkly BEBE velour pantset. Usually accompanied by lots of makeup, a small dog and fake boobs.

    woohoo!!!! festivus!

    My greivance right now is the stupid *kitten* photo shoot that was going on during my hike. there are other places to take photos people...

    people who block the parking lot to wait for that 1 spot when there is a spot just 2 spots up. I effin HATE that.

    People who let their kids run all over the place in the store.

    Lindsay Lohan (this requires no explaination)

    right now i'm good;)

    ah feel better thanks!

    I have a grievance with drivers who don't use their turn signal, and drivers who use their turn signal inappropriately. You are often the same person. I wish you would come into my lane without signalling, because then I could sue you and win. Like I can read your mind or something. Like it's fun for me to be stuck behind you as you gradually slow down for freakin' halfway down the block to finally inch your way into the driveway of some convenience store like your car is going to break apart if you take the turn too fast. Gah!

    My grievance is people that complain to the wrong people, for example they write their congress person to complain about a local school issue, etc...
    Learn civics people.

    Y'all are too funny, and I agree with all of those!

    1. Same as every other year: Christmas music before Thanksgiving.

    2. All the $$$ it costs to cart the president around the world.

    3. The History Channel turning to reality TV. What's so historical about Pawn Stars?!?! I want to learn something!!!

    Gluten. I hate it, it hates me yet it is in everything!

    College classes that are not art classes yet constantly want me to draw things

    That just about sums me up for today at least.

    Posers, haters, and liars....

    Horseradish.

    Flaky people and those that never take responsibility, accountability, and
    ...conversely, people who are unable to ever see things from another's perspective.
    Those that constantly complain and never work to overcome their issues or look for solutions.

    My stupid car that has been in the shop 3 times this month :grumble:

    I literally sighed relief after typing this.
    Mental Note to Self: Journal and purge out the uglies more often :wink:

    People that post topics and don't spell "grievances" correctly...

    I kid! I kid!

    Yay! Festivus for the rest of us.

    People that still can't use apostrophes correctly.

    The teeny-bopper chicks that work out at my gym and spend more time talking ctap about the other people there than they do working out. You wanna gossip? Go somewhere else.

    The a-hole voters in my school district...and the school board.

    And ****ing telemarketers! One called my cell phone 12 TIMES! In the last 2 hours. I even selected the option that I wasn't interested. I called the people & politely told them I'm not interested at this time. The Son of a ***** then called me out on my redneck accent & asked me if I'm driving my truck there when I told him I was going to kick his *kitten* if he called again. I told him I was & his mother was cuffed & gagged in the back. Also asked if he preferred to be buried in the same shallow grave as her.:devil: :laugh:

    Now time for the feats of strength!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:

    Customers who don't appreciate when you go out of your way to do something extra special just for them.

    Customers who ask you to go out of your way to do something extra special just for them.

    People who call themselves 'animal rescue' people but don't have a job and live off entitlement payments. Same people who declare 'that one is unadoptable so I have to keep him". Same people who refer to their cats as a 'colony'. When they see a malnourished animal they talk in code and say 'he needs to get some groceries in him'. People who say the animals 'love them unconditionally'. Wanna bet? Stop feeding them and you'll see how much condtions they put on their 'love' for you.

    Hoarders.

    Hoarders who rent. People allow you to stay in their property in exchange for money, doesn't give you the right to fill the place with trash and animals.

    People who loudly declare that they or someone else just farted. Do you really need to call attention to it? Are you that proud of it?

    When you give your opinion and they say you put your two cents in, put when they ask your opinion they say "penny for your thoughts"...who is getting the extra penny? And do we have to pay tax on it?

    People who whine "you never call me". Hey, most phones work to send AND receive. You wanna talk? pick up the phone and call.

    Festivus for the rest of us!

    Poor spelling, punctuation, and grammar skills. My biggest peeve is when people say "I seen".

    People who speed recklessly on our highways. I am ok with you putting your life at risk, but don't put MY life at risk with your crazy driving.

    Bureaucracy and overspending in the government. I wish they had boxes you could check when you pay your taxes. "Yes, I will spend my money on NASA and clean energy projects, but not on some silly war half a world away"

    People (Americans) who don't like soccer/football and call it a communist sport. Billions of people watch the World Cup, pretty sure the rest of the world has it right...
