Something I saw on the BBC news site just kinda annoyed me..

http://newsforums.bbc.co.uk/nol/thread.jspa?sortBy=2&threadID=6013&edition=1&ttl=20070412103048&#paginator

I’ve noticed for a while on the “Have your say” (HYS) part of the website, that alot of the people posting have no real clue of what the world is really like..

Alot of the “Recommended” (and thats ove 200 other people who agree with them, which is quite worrying) go on about how single mothers are all complete slappers who’ll ’sleep with anything that has a pulse’ and who only have children to sponge off the government. They say that the mothers don’t know who any of their childrens dads are, and that they can’t be bothered to work at relationships at all…

What the hell?! They need to get a clue seriously.. Do they all think that life is so simple? Do they think the dads always stick around and its the evil woman tho force them never to have contact? I know quite a few people who live with their mum who have regular contact with their dad too, and I’ve read many a story about how the fathers just walk out never to be seen again.

As for the whole not trying in a relationship, there is such a thing as realising you made a mistake with someone, of simply falling out of love with them. It happens every day, why do you think there are so many divorces these days, but it seems that you’re supposed to live a miserable life with a guy you don’t get on with, or has made your life hell, just so your children can grow up with 2 parents… No doubt all the twats on the HYS will be the first to tell a friend who gets beaten up by her husband to leave them and take the kids…

They’re not even happy with children having one parent though, as the woman shouldn’t be sponging off the government, so apparently should go out and get a job. They need to make up their minds and try living a real live and realise that things just aren’t as simple in life as it is in the fairytale in their heads.

They’ll be saying that all wars should be stopped, and that poverty should just go away next… Get a grip all you morons out there who think that everything is just so fixable when it isn’t…

You can now leave comments by clicking “No Comments” (or “x Comments” should anyone ever decide to comment!) and leaving a comment… I have no idea where the register bit went, but I blame this skin, because nothing is ever my fault!

Yet again I forgot to post for months… sorry guys, if I’d known anyone bothered to read my ramblings, I’d make it a regular occurance!

Anyways, was just browsing the BBC News site and came across http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6383747.stm

Now, there is no law saying members of the royal family HAVE to join the army, so dear Harry chose to join the army. I’ve said before that people who chose to join the army know what its about and therefore should expect to be sent to war, so we can safely assume wsith those 2 statements, that Prince Harry joined the army to go and fight in wars… He seems quite happy with that, saying he’d leave the army if he was given special treatment and NOT sent to war, so why are idiots like Chris Eubank (the wierdo ex-boxer) whinging about it? And where does Tony Blair come into this!? I doubt Harry cares what anyone thinks, and if he wants to go, why are people whining on his behalf when its not even what he wants!?

Enough about that now anyways, and onto my ever so pro peugeot 206

When you start driving, you don’t half notice the amount of seriously retarded drivers they are… A forum I joined, and promptly left, had a number of members who just couldn’t understand why I think speeding is wrong… It’s people like them, who think its bang out of order that they get in trouble for doing 90mph in a 60 limit, that give drivers a bad name, along with those who drink and drive, and the non-drivers who stab people, after all, if you do something against the law, its illegal and you should be punished for it.

Shame you have to be a regular cop for 3 years before you could joint the traffic police, else I’d be right there catching them all and giving them points on their license

Had a bit of a laugh the other day, in a previous post I mentioned I bought http://techthisout.net for $50 a while back (so I’ll no go into detail here) and recieved an email from the original owner asking for it back, but the price wasn’t right for me so I declined. e then went on and on about googling his own name, saying that when he did, TTO showed up… I pointed out theres absolutely nothing I can do about google indexing me site, and that it was nothing to do with me, and that he should take it up with them… I may be damn great, but I’m not google

I know I say this every time, but I’ll try and post more often… How about some of you start commenting!
I did get my ear pierced in the end by the way, like, 3 months ago, which shows how little I post! :$

The worst part of blogging, is that I’ve never decided what I’m gonna talk about before I start, so thinking up titles is too hard

Although, saying that, I know whatI’m gonna rant about this time, and the only reason I’m doing it now, is because I have Scotland the Brave stuck in my head and this is the only way of stopping myself from humming it over and over… and over… and over, until Jamie goes mad and runs away screaming…

Anyways, as I have previously moaned about muslims, I thought is was only fair that I gave the Christian faith a good bashing. I mean, whilst muslims annoy me, at least they have the decency to do it silently… And that is how we come to the subject of those complete idiots that stand on the streets of London, and many other places shouting “AH HAYVE SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN THE LIGGHHTTTT! GAWD IS OUR SAVIOUR! REPENT AND GO TO HEAVEN YA FILTY SINNERS!!!!” (you know the ones I mean! I know you do!)

I mean, take this complere retard who decided that he would hand out leaflets at a lesbian and gay march that said “Turn from your sins and you will be saved.”

I bet SO many people saw the leaflet and said “Wow! Being gay is a sin! I’m gonna stop being gay right this instant!!!” I mean come on, do Christians think anyone takes them seriously!? I don’t see why they think that walking up to me and telling me to believe in God, is any different from me walking up to them and saying he doesn’t exist. Do you think if I did that, that they would all stop being Christians?

It such a double-standard, it really pisses me off… I don’t go telling them things or putting junk through their doors, so why do they have to hand/post me leaflets that tell me complete lies?

Ok, so everyone has the right to free speech, but don’t I have the right to walk down the street without having my views pissed apon by random Christians? I was gonna say, that people walking about with banners handing out flyers promoting Nazi-ism/the killing of people, would soon be stopped, but sorry! it’s already been done when musims walked about London saying kill/behead the western infidels or words to that effect. (Oooops! Was trying not to mention them!)

As if the Christians in the street weren’t bad enough, you then get the sneaky ones, who lurk around, they could be friends, relatives, or collegues… you could even have known them your whole life… then one day, when you least expect it (and with them knowing fine well you’re not religious in any way, shape, or form) they come out with the dreaded: “you should come to church with me on Sunday!”

I must say, at that point, I tend to go speechless…

Do they think that I will suddenly become converted to the ways of God after going to church for a day? I’m shocked to think that so many people seem to think you can just be converted to Christianity, just by them saying something to you… they must all be completely brainwashed or something… *frowns*

Next Week: Buddhists - Why they annoy me
(I actually think buddhists are really cool )

Why do all designers think that us girls want to walk about dressed like prostitutes, and daft ones at that?! I went shopping today, and all I saw was silly skimpy tops… and considering the weather (gales that lift you off your feet/torrential rain) do they really think that in winter people want to wear clothes that are just totally unappropriate for the season?

You walk into the guy’s section, and theres all these normal tshirts, because unlike girls (who are obviously all slappers,) guys like to wear clothes that cover them up, and the designers cater for that.

It’s just not fair being a girl! Especially since every geeky bloke assumes that you’ll want to date them, and they all go overboard and start drooling and being nice the second you tell them you’re female…

Saying that, mid argument it’s great to mention you’re a girl and watch them grovel and do anything ya want them to

Now, before everyone starts on me, and hacks the server this site is on and replaces it with lines of red and yellow arabic telling me allah is teh win0r, this isn’t a personal attack against anyone or anything, it is merely opinion (so please, no threatening to shoot/behead me)

It is my understanding, (and corrrect me if I’m wrong,) that the dear old Pope diverted from his usual slevvering about God, and said something along the lines of: “Islam = violence!” to which a whole bunch of muslims replied: “That’s lies! Kill the Pope for saying such things!” (followed by shooting elderly nuns, burning home-made statues of the pope etc etc)

…

…

…

Um?

How can people contradict themselves so much in the same sentence so badly, and still believe what they’re saying!? Infact, I can’t even think of any sentence that’s better, so big up to the Pakistani foreign minister that said “Islam is a peaceful religion, and anyone who disagrees should expect to be killed”. *slow claps*

The above news story on the BBC has suddenly become one of the most re-posted news stories..
I read it what, 3 months ago, and considering there are soooo many more important stories about, and have been since it was first posted in Feb, then people should be focussing on more important issues…

Now one thing was bugging me today… I was getting my mum to take money out of my building society where she lives near London (and would you believe, there are only 3 branches in the whole of Scotland: Glasgow (6 hours round trip away), Edinburgh (same as Glasgow, possibly more), and Aberdeen (what’s that? Like, 50 hours?), so before I moved, I asked them what I should do to which they replied “write a letter saying you authorise your mum to take money out, keep a copy for yourself, give one to her, and give us one”. To which I thought, fair enough, and away we went.

Now that was fine until, Oct. last year, when they said the letter was dated 2003 and that although they’d give my mum the money this time, she should get a new (updated) letter, so I did one for her and signed it, and that was fine until last week…

In my mum went as usual, only to be told by some completely retarded cow, that she would accept the letter just this once, but it would reflect badly on her as an employee, and that the letter should never have been accepted.. My mum pointed out that it had been accepted before, and had to get very stroppy in order to get any money out.

So, lacking the finer details of the exchange, I phoned my building society and ended up speaking to the woman who dealt with my mum, only to be told that it was due to the fact the letter was dated 2004 and was too old, and also, that anyone could have picked it up and bought it in…
Feeling slightly deflated (as I was all geared up to ranting at her,) I phoned my mum, who said the letter was dated Oct 2005 (thats 11 months ago) and she had ID to prove she was the person who’s name was specified on the letter… Now, that pissed me off… That cow lied to me, acting like my mum had been completely unreasonable in getting stroppy, and made up reasons for why she was supposedly entitled to refuse the letter?!

Anyways, I ended up withdrawing most of the money (with a new letter that was as specific as I could do it, and dated 3 days ago) and getting an account elsewhere, thanks to that woman.

And talking of banks, HBOS (Halifax/Bank of Scotland) are just dodgy… They merged a while ago, and my Halifax account (which I’ve had for yeeeears) takes 7 working days to clear… Everyone (including HBOS employees!) refuses to believe that it takes that long, so I tried to get a current account with the Bank of Scotland in order to have cheques clear in 3 working days, like every other bank on the planet. “Oh no sorry, you don’t have an income, so we won’t give you one” said numerous BOS people, so I got an appointment, demanded one, and voila, I have a BOS current account

When my mum withdrew the afformentioned money from the afformentioned crappy building society, she went to Halifax to put the cheque into my BOS account, only to be told it wouldn’t work and that they could put it in my Halifax account (so it would clear in a week and 2 days) or she could go to London to find a BOS and deposit it there….
She left the queue and phoned me asking what to do, and after I told her to just put it in my Halifax, she ended up speaking to a different cashier, who managed to put it in my BOS account fine…

Is the whole world going mad, or is everything just trying its best to annoy me?!

Luckily it all worked out, which means I’ll be able to order a new bed on Friday as my current one… How shall I put it… Collapses, and has so many nails holding it together, I don’t think I can call it a wooden bed anymore…

Kingsize four-poster with little curtain thingies (and a new mattress) here I come!

For those of you that don’t know what they are, see this…

For those of you that feel ill at the thought of them, whatever you do, DON’T CLICK THE LINK!

I swear they follow me about deliberatly… I’ll just be sitting here and see a moth out the corner of my eye, and think, “awww! a moth!” only for it to fly closer and I see it’s a monster of a crane fly… Of couse when I realise, I launch myself across the room with a scream (giving my poor Jamie a heart attack ) and have to leave the room till it’s dealt with…

I don’t know what it is with them, even typing this sends shivers down my spine! Good news though, its coming to the time of year when the palm-sized (and I’m not joking!) horrors all die off and I no longer have to go and lie down to recover from the horrible experience of having them fly at my face!

As if it’s been a month since I last posted… sorry people!
Guess I’ve just been feeling too good natured to sit ranting, but that stops here!

I’m refering to this.

If you read the comments at the bottom, alot of people say that customers might find it offensive or scary, and yes, they have a point, but had they bothered to read the article, they’d see that she worked in an office and only had contact with customers over the phone.

But no. On and on they whinge, saying if you don’t want to look mainstream, then you should work for a non-mainstream company, and not a “normal” one.
Now forgive me if I’m wrong, but I was bought up to judge people by who they were, and schools are always saying bullying and descrimination is bad, so why is descrimination against people with tattoos allowed?

I have earrings, but it doesn’t affect who I am… I don’t look anything like some thug that’s gonna knife you if you look at them funny, as for one, I’m a girl, and secondly, having your ears pierced or a tattoo is no different, regarless if its one ear piercing, 10 ear piercings, a lip piercing, a small tattoo on your ankle, or tattoos up your arms and all over your back.

If everyone wants to generalise, then anyone who who drinks a glass of wine a week is an alcoholic, and anyone who is on any medication is a low-life, mindless drug addict.

Oh, and if you’re reading this, you: spend too much time on the net, are a complete geek, and have no life.

:D

Yes, babies are cute! Everyone likes to look at them n coo over how adorable they look, but having a little kid with you does not make you exempt from obeying the laws everyone else has to!

Having a baby doesn’t mean you can go and park where you like. It make come as a shock to some people, but NOTHING puts you above the law! If I had my way, I’d ban everyone who has
- went even 1mph above the speed limit (unless they were overtaking ONE vehcile)
- parked somewhere they shouldn’t have for more than 6 seconds
- overtaken me for any reason
- tailgated me and then overtaken at speed when I was doing the exact the speed limit

When will people realise that it’s for their own good that the laws are there?
Apparently, not making it obvious where speed cameras are is going against a persons human rights, so if that is the case, please explain why any law abiding person who wouldn’t be speeding anyways would care that there were cameras, and where the fuck my rights to cross the road/drive a car without being murdered by someone speeding went?

Don’t even get me started on people who don’t bother to indicate! If I had my way, I’d crash into them all, and sue… and win
