I didn't know geeky white boys from Maryland built pyramids!

I'm from Miami originally. That obviously makes me Jewish. Deductive reasoning and whatnot. Ho Ho Ho. Merry Christmas.

I hate that my people had to build pyramids and make years of terrible theatre to be considered foragers.

There seems to be evidence that "your people" didn't do a whole lot of work on Pyramids.

I hate that hockey has finally opened up the game a bit and Mario Lemieux is too old to take advantage of it.

I hate that all the new money in held'em poker is going into boring ass no-limit cash games.

I hate that I still haven't gotten off my ass and finished one of the half-written law review articles I have lying around.

I hate that the labor movement is going to shit.

I hate that some fundamentalist assmonkey got elected Pope.

Airing grievances eh? Here we go:

- To anybody that thinks contributor names matter, get over yourselves or write something clever. Hell, it doesn't even have to be clever, it just has to be mildly amusing. This ain't the New Yorker, and for that I am infinitely thankful.

- To Schild: we know you hate WoW. We don't care. I still want to stick it to my veins. Excuse me while I kiss the sky.

- To Shockeye: I like Useless News. I don't like when it goes to politics. I don't like politics.

- To Sky: Fuck them if they hate on your TV. Just don't expect programming for it. Oh, and tell us more about fucking sluts on broken liquor bottles after a gig. I like to hear about things I could never do.

- To Voodoo: You're weird. That's fine. Fly your freak flag. Remember to fly it far away from porno 'round these parts though. And quit queering up threads when we're posting hot chicks. That's rude.

- To Proudmoore server Aussies: You give your countrymen a bad name. Stop telling people on the forums where you are from and spare your country further embarrassment. You suck.

- To WoW uber-raiders: Uber-lewt is fleeting. Douchebaggery lasts a lifetime.

- To Haemish: The dog is making you weak. Snowbeast is waiting to eat you and take your place when you least suspect it. You have been warned.

- To Comic-lovers: Movies made from comics suck. No, I don't want to hear about them. No, I don't care how cool you think it is. Stop it.

- To people that love Cartoon Network: It's just not that cool. There is a LOT of stupid shit there with moments of brilliance. They need to weed out the crap before it can be considered good.

- To Strazos: Quality over quantity please.

- To the Atheists: I won't bother talking to you about religion. If we can't even agree that there is a higher power involved, then we have no common basis to start a conversation on the supernatural realm. Yes, I know that's arrogent to a few of you, and no, I don't care. Frankly, you wouldn't care about my views anyway.

- To SuperPopTart: Sometimes you're nice, sometimes you're not. Post more when you're not. Just not at me.

- To the NHL: Going to OLN was not the answer. That was retarded.

- To the BCS: I'm going to keep screaming Playoff like Norma Ray screamed Union. Fuck you and your money hats.

- To F13 at large: More PC, less console. I hate console.

I hate that the majority of Christians I have met did't understand this, even though I'm not actually an atheist.

I hate that I didn't have anything to post that wasn't a reaction to someone else's post.  As usual.

I hate that everything that is seriously wrong in my life is something I could have avoided if I had done things differently ten years ago.

I hate that everything that will be seriously wrong with my life in ten years will be things I could avoid if I did things differently today.

I hate that my mother is dead.

I hate that ideas have very little to do with making good games, and hard work everything to do with it.

I hate that insurance is only available to people who don't need it.

I hate the 80/20 rule.

I hate that Shadowbane is so buggy.

I hate dial-up.

I hate political stuff I'm not going to drag in here.

I hate that I couldn't afford to go to AGC this year.

I hate that December has been so freaking cold.

I hate that the polar icecaps are melting.

I hate that I suddenly feel that whether I say 'Happy Holidays' or 'Merry Christmas' makes a difference, when I've never paid any attention to which one I've said before.

I hate that I've started saying neither one.

I hate that Kong will probably beat Narnia in the box office.  It doesn't deserve to, not by a long shot.
 
I hate that my Christmas shopping is nowhere near done.
 
I hate that I've gotten very little sleep this week.
 
I hate that large swaths of my family have moved away from the Bay Area in recent years, and I now have to drive up I-80, most vile of all freeways, to see them on holidays.
 
I hate that several family members haven't gotten me Christmas presents for the past couple of years, and I still feel obligated to keep buying them things.
 
I hate that I can't resist snacking on the holiday sweets in the break area.  Stupid homemade fudge.  My first weigh-in after the holidays is going to be very traumatic.

I hate that I have to walk home in the rain tonight.

I hate that my mother is dead.


I hate still seeing my dad on the verge of tears all the time, 8 months after losing his wife. I hate worrying about him. I hate planning my wedding without my mom's input.

I hate having to be the "strong one" and the "responsible one". I want to goof off and fuck up and not care sometimes, too.

I hate that my mom's sister died three weeks ago.  Also of cancer. I hate that my mom's mom isn't expected to make it through the week. Also because of cancer (2 kinds, even!).

I hate being afraid that if I ever have kids, I won't live long enough to see them grow up.

I think grieving and airing grievances are different things. One is sad, and the other is meant to inform people on the web why you think they suck. Let's focus on the latter in this thread.
