Vent Your Frustrations • Page 17

My friend feeling the need to say "no homo" (then subsequently "fuck it homo lol") when texting me that he misses me and let's hang out. And just every time a friend feels the need to assert their heterosexuality to downplay something they deem emasculating.

 

Last night I got home and there was a spider in the tub and i worked up the courage to kill it. Got up today and there's another. It's to the point where every time I go in the bathroom I look for a spider in the tub. There's been one almost every day omg it's like my tub is the portal to hell

I feel bad killing them but I'm also not brave enough to set them free

 

Yeah expression of masculinity and heterosexuality can be so exhausting

 

I hate it when people fb message me when they have my number to text me. Honestly is so much easier to text me. No matter how many times I tell people I DONT USE/HAVE THE MESSENGER APP, they continue to message me on there. I guess I'll just ignore your message until you listen.

Another thing, my friend invited me to this party (I wasn't planning on going anyhow but made it seem like I'd think about it) and she cancels and says she's can't go anymore and states the reason. Ugh. This only frustrates me because I can't trust her to keep plans. She either makes excuses as to why she can't do them and most of the time cancels last minute, or she makes other plans knowing she has already set previous plans and instead of telling the 2nd plan "sorry I forgot I already made plans" she cancels on me. All this makes me not liking to hangout with her.

 

I have endometriosis and was basically pain-free for a year. Was so happy to finally find something that works and now here I am, sitting in pain with a heating pad on my stomach and wanting to cry. Ugh really hoping this is just a 1-time thing and it doesn't come back next month because I do not want to deal with this again. I'm so exhausted and all I want to do is sleep but I can't because work.

 

My friend was driving yesterday with the windows down and his music up as loud as it could go, which was super loud. I didn't want to be in the car.

How do you politely tell someone to TURN THEIR SHIT DOWN?

 

I think this is the best thread for this...
Trying to get in a better habit of washing my face before bed. I honestly hate looking in the mirror and taking off my makeup. I feel like every time I look in the mirror /and get a close look, I get more ugly. I always find things that I feel like have "popped up" and never noticed before. It makes my self esteem worse and I pretty much don't have any to begin with. I have such bad genetics it makes me cry. I hate feeling like the ugliest person.

 

I really dislike phone calls these days instead of texting. This might be different is I were someone who spent much time in romantic relationships or was dating, but it just seems pointless talking to friends and family and I'm really awkward on the phone anyway. Is the sound of my voice that pleasant? Because it sounds really gross to me, both subjectively and objectively. Plus I often misspeak in real time when in a text the fallout from that can be totally avoided. Maybe for some, texting feels like going back in time to when letters were used instead of phone calls, but whatever. Texting is way more convenient for me.

 

I feel you sis. I know washing my face twice a day helps me feel better tho. I cant control that i hate my overbite or the size of my nose lol, but i can, to some degree, control the clearness of my skin so getting in the habit of washing it makes me feel better personally. I used to look in the mirror and cry all the time and convinced myself that my older sister got all the good genes and I got all the bad leftover ones cause she's so pretty and I had to live in her shadow. It's better now but it seems like every time I finally accept something I was insecure about, a new insecurity pops right up that I obsessively focus on. We are always so much harder on ourselves than other people. All those little perceived "flaws" we notice, most likely nobody else does but we've focused on them so hard it's all we see when we look in the mirror and our image becomes distorted. I truly hope you find a way to accept yourself cause it's not an easy battle at all and it seems never ending but it's possible. Sorry if this post is annoying lol. Sometimes when I'm down and ppl give me cheesy affirmations that don't work I get annoyed.

 

Hey fuck this goddamn commercial.

 

i hope I can find a way too. It's such a hard struggle to deal with image issues. I try to do other things for myself to make me more confident but it's when I look closely in the mirror or at myself in the mirror in direct sunlight I'm like "ew gross" because it's when I can see all those little flaws

 

Natural sunlight is an ass lol. Nobody looks good in that nonsense

 

Nikki Glaser's show not having its own thread here is hog ass. What the shit is wrong with this website?

 

My lil sis was irritating me today. My nephew favors her and it's fine. I don't try to take him away from her and make him love me or anything lol, but I feel like she actively tries to do that to me. Any time I try to hug him or sit near him she takes him away or convinces him to be near her instead. Idk why she feels the need to do that and it bums me out. I was with him for like 6 hours today and barely got to hang with him cause she kept intercepting.

 

If she is anything like my cousin who's done something similar with my nephew, she's attention hungry and wants easy validation from a mind that's easily malleable. But really I'm just ranting about my cousin. I'm sorry.

 

ugh at least other people experience it too. I was starting to think I was just overreacting lol. It sucks cause like I mentioned earlier my nephew knows that I make playdoh and he asked for it. I said I'd bring the supplies tomorrow and he was fine, but then my sister had to be like "Oh, I guess if you want to disappoint him and get his hopes up" like just being an ass, I guess to be the "fave." Anyway, sorry your cousin does that too it sucks. Like they're kids! Just let them hang with who they want! Forcing a relationship is weird.

 

People who laugh and dick around at the gym throughout their entire time there.

I mean I get it, you pay just as much as I do for a membership so do whatever makes you happy...but I seriously doubt the effectiveness of whatever you were trying to achieve.

I swear I'm not the gym police or anything lol, I was just annoyed. Bringing my headphones next time. /rant over

 

iPhone and Android don't have all the same emojis! So sometimes people send me texts I can't understand because I just see boxes with Xs in them!

 

Corporate Restaurants; where you can be fired for getting sick or calling out for your dead mother's birthday but not coming in drunk or making every single female in the building feel unsafe.

 

Sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen

 

The restaurant I worked at had an employee file a lawsuit for that and it took 10 years for them to be paid the settlement. Corporate restaurants can get away with murder.

 

I wish haha.

 

Getting fired for being sick but not harassment is not right. I know someone who was fired for that. Calling out (Non illness or emergency) I can understand more, especially if you're one to call out all the time/call out last min. I worked at a place to where if you call out you have to do it so many hours before hour shift otherwise you get a write up. But the example you gave, something like that should have been requested off prior. Calliing out for anything that should have been a request off is bad work ethic. Although immediate fire is unnessary, repetitive behavior is grounds for being terminated.

My current job (that I'll be leaving shorty) gets so many call outs over unnessary shit. One guy would decide to go out of town and call out on a day he's scheduled to work causing me and others getting asked to come in (I have a feeling he will get fired if he keeps it up. One guy was already fired for calling out all the time). And as someone who already works enough days, getting asked to come in on my only day off isn't something I want to be bombarded with

 

I ordered a necklace from Groupon (should have known) and they sent me two fucking ankle bracelets clasped together to make a (very short) "necklace". I'm more frustrated over the fact that it was a perfect gift for my sister's graduation and now I have to start looking for something else. She always wants expensive stuff and that shit was so cheap :(

 

I waited until my nephew took a nap to watch a movie and now everyone else in the room is talking and playing videos on their phone and I'm trying not to glare lol
