Group Gripe Area! You are allowed one post to just get anything stupid, frustrating, aggrevating or simply silly off your chest. No politics, no angst boomerangs, just scream out whatever has you desperately fucking angry and let it go. Therapy style.
I'm desperately fucking angry about my high school football team losing to their arch rival for the 8th year running. I mean, the coach was sending in plays by holding up sheets of cardboard with big letters printed block style. HELLO, COACH!? Yeah, the other team can see those, too. After the third time you use it, they other side knows what you're calling... dumbass.
Other than that, life's just peachy.
It's not the wolf you see you should fear, but all the ones he howls with. Don't be afraid of the song, but don't piss off the choir.

Sweet. I like this. This I can do because it pisses me off when I go onto my Facebook page and see a half dozen people dissing other people in their statuses. For example "You know who you are, but _____". DAMN IT PEOPLE! Stop airing your laundry on the public networks. Grow a pair and pick up the phone and tell them because we don't need to know. If you don't have something worthwhile to say... well, then just shut the fuck up!
Thanks. Feel better. >
I prefer guys that don't come in a box.

Another football story. UCLA's football team is playing very very very poorly. They are actually looking like they don't know or understand the game and this has been going on for the past 11 years!!! So I must tune into tomorrow's game and perhaps for the umpteenth time ask myself if and when I will begin to cringe.
It's nice just to vent.

Oops, sorry Raymundo...my father is a graduate of the University of Arizona, a big Wildcats fan to this day, and he's 91 years old! The game last week was not pretty for the UCLA fans.
Other than that, I am sorry to see Timmy experiencing technical difficulties again, and just as he began to post my new story. Be careful of your back, Timmy, remember what happened last time. Hope to see things up and running again soon!

Gripes? I'll give you gripes - Football! I hates it. I absolutely loath and detest and HATE the stupid game in all its varying shapes and forms, but especially in the format that has become New Zealand's de facto National Religion. We're talking Rugby Union here - that, in New Zealand, is Football, not that weird game played with a round ball, that they're not allowed to pick up and run with - that is soccer not football. That one is for soft-cocks actually, they're not even allowed to thump each other.
And proper football is not Rugby Union, not League and not Aussie Rules and especially not that strange game that the Americans call football, with dozens of players rotating on and off the field, all wrapped-up in pads and helmets and that no-one else in the world understands or cares about. No, the only football that matters to a New Zealander is Rugby and we are the best in the world at playing rugby, apparently - even though only half a dozen countries play the stupid game, (and half of them are in the UK), and even though we can't seem to win the "World Cup" - only ever did it once and even got beaten once by France. France!! Sheesh - who knew that France even had 15 people who knew how to play it and they beat us! That was a black, black day - but we are still the best Rugby-playing country in the world - we must be because we keep telling each other that we are.
Next year the bloody "Rugby World Cup" is to be held in New Zealand - Aaargh! It's already un-bloody-avoidable, next year will be hell on earth.
I don't like football.

"I gave it 110%"
Yeah, asshole, so you did. Wonder how you did that?

My current gripe (until further notice) is the dumbing down of TV promos. Why are we subjected to the promotion of the same programmes several times an hour for several days in advance? Do they think I am a moron? (And I generally only watch TV for about 90 minutes each day!) Is this a general malaise or a Chinese torture invented by Israeli TV magnates for local consumption?

Well, my gripes, apart from the one about not being able to gripe about politics, are many. Griping comes with age, you see. Gripes seem to multiply by age as we get older, which may explain why old men are so grouchy, but the only real gripe worth entertaining is of course not being young for longer, if that even makes sense. Of course that would also mean we would have even more gripes when we did get old.
Perhaps gripes are really just an expression of wisdom, or at least its frustration.
