Festivus '07 Airing of Grievances

[schild]

It's that time again, jerks.

[Salamok]

It's that time again, jerks.

I'll holdout for the feats of strength round.

[WayAbvPar]

I am tired and in a decent amount of pain, so I currently hate everyone. Fuck Santa and his 8 reindeer.

[schild]

It's that time again, jerks.

I'll holdout for the feats of strength round.

There are no feats of strength this year. Too many people got disqualified from them. The f13 Mitchell Report will be published January 13th, 2008.

[Signe]

Oh, I don't know.  I don't really have anything to say. 

[Hoax]

This is where we rag on other posters right?  I'm going to really let almost all of you have it this year.

[schild]

That's cool, I let your mom have it last night.

Things I can't wait to hear about:
The Wii.
The Wii.
The Wii.
The Wii.
The Wii.
The TF2 Server.

[Paelos]

Here are my sports grievances for 07: (I'm doing a section on sports, then games, then you people)

I hate Tony Kornhole. He is just the focal point of everything that is wrong with MNF now.
I hate celebrities or frankly ANYONE other than announcers doing the lineup announcements in games. It's horribly stupid. No I don't care if your nickname is Tuna Fish and you went to the fucking "U".
I hate the BCS.
I hate that the Rose Bowl is a bunch of old bastards who selected a second tier team because they are in the Big Ten. That game has the highest spread of any of the bowls and will ROYALLY suck because of that call.
I hate that baseball players still continue to deny they did steroids. Fuck you. You got caught. Stop it.
I hate that baseball let it get this far.
I hate that Barry Bonds is the home run recordholder until he gets thrown in jail. I can't wait for that day when his smear of evil is wiped of Aaron's true record.
I hate that the NHL is still stupid enough not to cut a deal with ESPN.
I hate that Georgia needed Tennessee to lose for a month to have a shot at the SEC Championship, and then when we actually need them to win, they lose.
I hate the Patriots and their Humble Pie. 50+ points isn't humble, dickweeds.
I hate any and all teams that have an affiliation with New York...still.
I hate the NBA.

Happy Festivus.

[Sky]

I hope everyone here has a wonderful and safe holiday and prospers next year. May all your wishes come true, work hard and take time to enjoy life.

[UD_Delt]

I'm going to go with a completely random personal attack, well random for me at least since I've never actually even interacted with the guy before but whatev...

Fuck you to Geldon. Somehow in under 2 months version 2 of you has almost managed to post here more than I have in the last 3-4 years.

Maybe I have nothing interesting to say but damn man you just say to fucking much all the fucking time.

[Signe]

Is anyone going to decorate this board?  Are they?  Huh?  In the spirit of Festivus?  Will they? 

[Raging Turtle]

British Stag/Hen parties. 

I only recently found out that these bands of roving, drunken, puking jackasses exist, and jesus fucking christ do I hate them.  Way to give everyone in the city a completely valid reason to hate English speaking foreigners!

I also hate the fact that I know more about English grammar than 98% of native speakers but I still make stupid grammatical and spelling errors all the time here. 

[voodoolily]

I'm going to go ahead and count myself in the "Fuck All Y'All" camp. I only like people who can post in private forums.

They have them in the US, too.  They're called Bachelor/Bachelorette parties.  What are you on about... or maybe just on? 

[Raging Turtle]

The ones in the states tend to go to a single, predicatable location and not go hit up 10 different bars and clubs in a night (in my experience, at least), which makes them easily avoidable. 

They also aren't known for starting fights in the states.  Most of the fights I've seen in bars and clubs here that have any sizable amount of foreigners have involved at least one member of a drunken stag party, easily identifiable by the matching clothes or costumes.

Really, I just don't like stupid drunk tourists (from any country), but it IS kind of my fault for choosing to live in Prague.   

I am getting the fuck out of here during the summer months though.  No way I'm putting up with those hordes.

Well, since someone already got that out of the way, I guess I'll just have a coke.

[Samwise]

We're supposed to be airing grievances about each other here, not stupid things that we already bitch about year round.  WHERE IS YOUR FESTIVUS SPIRIT?

So I guess my grievance is that other people's grievances (and non-grievances, you heathen derailers) are lame.  UD_Delt almost got it right, but he used "to" instead of "too" two times, so it's a wash.

[Cheddar]

Grammar/spelling snake.  Seriously, this is the intardnet.  At least most of the peoples hear wright coherentely!!1111

[bhodi]

Fuck you geldon, fuck you darksign, and fuck you cheddar for disappearing for 3 months.

Mostly, though, fuck all of you that are too pussy to go into politics. Important shit is afoot every day, and closing your eyes doesn't make it go away.

[schild]

closing your eyes doesn't make it go away.

Fuck you for thinking that, because it does. ^_^

[Samwise]

Corollary: Fuck all of you who never post anyplace BUT politics.

Also, all of you who never joined the f13 Steam community are antisocial jerks.  Especially Stray.

[stray]

Whoa, whoa.. I just don't play games much these days.

I'm quite social though! Broke maybe, but very social.

[Signe]

I hope everyone here has a wonderful and safe holiday and prospers next year. May all your wishes come true, work hard and take time to enjoy life.

I missed this one.  What? 

[Phildo]

Are Jews allowed to post in a Festivus thread?

[Cheddar]

Are Jews allowed to post in a Festivus thread?

It's that time again, jerks.

[Nerf]

Are Jews allowed to post in a Festivus thread?

Same rules as golf.  That means no blacks, no jews, and the only brown people had better be fucking cutting the grass.

So fuck you jewboy, you already had your holiday, and unless you're one of them nygro jews celebrating kwanza, stay the fuck out of our Festivus thread!



Now assemble my Festivus pole, I've heard how good you jews are with poles.

[geldonyetich2]

You might have noticed I cut back severely on my posting over the past couple days.  That's no coincidence.  Frankly, my forum-lurking had reached such epic levels that not only was everybody getting pissy at me but I was starting to get pissy in return.  (Particularly at the more anal retentive ones - you know who you are.)

Sadly, I had forgotten the lessons gained since version 2.0.  Lurking about forums, getting upset with people... well, life is just too short for that (particularly if people are pooling their money together to send Ironwood over to shorten it further).

But enough of this.  I air my grievances enough year-round without usurping this thread as well.  I'm already over my designated daily post limit by two, perhaps I'll take tomorrow off.

[stray]

I believe it was a Jew who first said the word "Festivus"

[schild]

Festivus was indeed created by Jews to mock other religions sense of Merry.

Only a Jew could create something as awesome as festivus anyway.

[Cheddar]

What the fuck ever

You just made me lose the pool.  Die in flames, you fucktard.  Its what I get for standing up for you.

[geldonyetich2]

Doh!  I was done, had they made it a four-post pool you'd have been in the clear.

[Soukyan]

I don't hate anything because I'm too damn nice. Happy Festivus.

[NiX]

Fuck you geldon, fuck you darksign, and fuck you cheddar for disappearing for 3 months.

Stole the words right out of my mouth.

My grievances:

I hate that my ex still thinks I should act like her boyfriend despite the fact that I keep telling her it's FUCKING OVER.
I hate that I'm 23 and having to deal with that.
I hate that there are people in my classes who talk like they know shit and they manage to fail a course based on powerpoint.
I hate that I have more debt than I should at 23.
I hate that the debt hasn't netted me a new TV.
I hate that my roomies girlfriend is excited to bring her Wii back from the states.
I hate that she thinks she's going to be playing it all the time. On my TV. FUCK. NO.
I hate Geldon 2.0. I don't even read his posts, but he annoys me.
I hate my ex for being psycho.
I hate that Schild laughs at me. Only because I know it really is that funny.

No fuck all y'all here. Cliche. Plus, some really great people here. Don't we make another thread to say what you like? Or some such.

[schild]

I hate that I haven't know the taste of real food for about 8 weeks.

[Tannhauser]

My grievances...

To Bioware for not making Mass Effect 20x bigger
To EA for buying up every game company instead of putting out good games themselves.
To Mythic for not letting me into the WAR beta.  I'm VERY disappointed Mark!
To Hellgate London for sucking so bad at launch.  Subway faction? Really?
To HD-DVD and Blu-Ray for their format war.  Unless I can see any movie I want in HD I'm not buying.
To my company for firing two employees because it was 'perceived' they were expendable (I'm now doing both their jobs).
To Ed McMahon for not bringing a big check to my front door.  I thought I fucking already won Ed!
To the folks on the f13 political forum for their lack of morals.
