I hate how the overpaid corporate ass-wipes can't ever do their jobs, meanwhile I'm busy making people happy and cleaning non-stop all day for sub-poverty wages. Yet even though I've never had a complaint and lots of commendations by customers, and my boss said that I'm not allowed to quit since he needs me too much, these corporate cunts still always find some way to label me as a fuck-up. Do these people have such small cocks that they need to constantly, and needlessly, berate a subordinate to make themselves feel better? They already are given free cars and brand new cell phones. That'd be more than enough to make me happy. My car is literally falling apart, and I can't afford to fix it (hell, I can't even pay rent this month), and my cell phone is so old that they don't even make it anymore. What gives? I would love it if these assholes would just turn their over-inflated heads in another direction and let me do my job, because my direct coworkers and I are the reasons that they even have jobs in the first place. And we do our work well. But it's never good enough. Yeah, that tends to be the attitude from most of the suits in places where I've worked cause: a) I didn't like or talk about sports b) listened to metal and goth c) had long hair! I'm glad I've ended up somewhere tolerant but man- I've seen that shit happen way, way too much. You have my sympathy. |

However the hell song licensing for advertising works.
Over the past couple years, this same damned 60s/70s-esque rock song keeps getting used in every commercial known to man or beast, trying to appeal to boomers to throw their remaining retirement cash at stuff.
I'm not pissed off at the cynical appeal to the boomers, and for once (and maybe the only time), I'm not even pissed at the boomers.
I'm pissed off because even though I can't stand the damned song, I still don't know what it is despite hearing 30-45 seconds of it all the goddamned time.
At least if I knew, then I'd know the proper person to direct my annoyance towards.

Do you know any of the lyrics? Given how much it sounds like it's played on advertisements, if you can google even a small portion of the lyrics you should be able to get a result. It's worked a lot for me.

Anyone bashing Appetite for Destruction has literally no taste in music That's not it, trust me. It's "Gimme Some Lovin'" by The Spencer Davis Band (and later on by Traffic, both bands were fronted by Steve Winwood). I f***ing HATE that song. |

I very nearly fell into a severe panic attack while on nitrous oxide at the dentist. I thought I was choking and I was watching myself die. When I came to, I was sweating profusely and on the verge of tears.

What pisses me off is poison ivy (or oak, or sumac... whatever rubbed against my leg when I went hiking). I have this horrible poison ivy rash and it's been oozing for days. I could have had so much fun on my labor day weekend (my first 3-day weekend since New Years), but instead I'm staying home and taking time to recover. It's actually pretty depressing.
