And this from a woman who came up with the saying 'man up dick' Shame on you more like.

I'm quite piqued that you of all people would use that against me ! I seem to remember something to do with Monkeys and bodily fluids coming from your warped and twisted mind......hmmmmmm!!

Ticked that I don't understand what's wrong with "man up dick"? If the order of the words was reversed I could see the problem.

My thoughts exactly Lucas. My comment was aimed at a fictional character named Dick not at a mans appendage!

Now I'm peeved because that's a great story.

I am so peeved that I don't have the words to express my joy. A Life Apart has been selected as the unrestricted BOM for March! This victory for our member Roger was due in a large part to the votes of the M/M Romance group members who are also members of the Complaint Department.
Thank you everyone! I thank you. My fiancé thanks you! May parents thank you. My future in-laws thank you! The doorman of our apt. building thanks you! (I was so happy I gave him a big tip) Roger Kean and his life long partner Oliver Frey thank you! Roger's Aunt Jean and Uncle Neil Thank you!. And a special thanks from Richard and Edward the heroes and loving couple whose story fills the pages of A Life Apart.

I'm narked to have to indirectly thank you for you wise words, "Complaining is the next best thing to do besides sleeping and eating after all. "
Welcome to the Complaint Department. If you don't want others to suffer the same fate as befell you in not knowing they can come here to blow their tops or at least let off a little steam, invire your friends to join you here.
That goes for all myirritable, bitchy fine outstanding fellow members and co-complainers, invite your friends and they will no doubt gratefully complain about you for having done so!

Yeah! I mean, umm, dude, I am totally vexed that we helped get the book that you so nicely pimped out to the members of this group...Now I have to go look to see when your drawing is for the free book.

Also the number of "since"s in my post is ridiculous and makes me look stupid which I abhor. I'm still glad that A Live Apart has been selected which irritates me to no end.

I hate the fact that I like that you share that sentiment. I also understand that you are suffering from your happiness about the book poll. Happiness is for people that are too lazy to seek flaws.

This is a quote from my brain as I gaze out my window.

I dejectedly and reluctantly agree.

Gah. Thanks for forcing me to acknowledge a show of gratitude with a PDA of all things. *Reluctantly hugs back.*
*shuffles away, grumbling like an old man.*



I'm really pissed now Elizabetta because now Kim (who seems to be changing into an old man ) will expect all her complaints converts to give her annoying hugs and PDA's. humbug! Grudging thanks Kim but I'm not supporting your ebenezer Scrooge style sex change, I prefer you as a possum!

Every year during winter I try to convince my husband we should move to California where I grew up and every year he looks at me like I am crazy. I really don't like the snow, it was nice the first time I saw it, when I was 9 and thought I could bring some home in a jar with me. Now, not so much.

I'm pissed that Elizabetta needs rain and since I live in Oregon I'd like to let you borrow some of ours. Please, for the love of God, take some of our f&%$*ing rain!


dang, it's lunch time. Gosh darn it, I HAVE to go eat something.

I am peeved to find out that I like and believe that this quote is true

I am piqued that lately when buying electronic books, I am finding the books are short stories. A book should have substance to it--it should be more that "we met, there is angst, then sex, and then HEA. There is nothing worst than getting interested in a story, only to find that it ends.

I'm highly irritated that I'm not nearly as excited about today being hump day as I was when I thought it was yesterday.

I'm annoyed that l don't know what hump day is.
ETA l'm a little bit eggy that l've had to edit this post because l spelled Cmbwey's name wrong which might have annoyed him.





What???!!! Who does that?!?!

Ditto, Ijeoma, some people stoop very low. Hope they feel ashamed, but unfortunately if they're brazen enough to do that they probably don't care. Perhaps they should be named and shamed ? I feel hurt for Monique and Becs.

Who me? I'm offended..........;p

What???!!! Who does that?!?!"
Monique just told us that someone is plagiarising her reviews. Monique and Becs have a website where they review books (Sinfully Sexy Book Reviews) as well as on Goodreads and someone on Goodreads is plagiarising them. It is quite sad that someone could stoop so low and it is also silly.


I'm stymied (is that whiny enough to count, I wonder?) by your uncouth ability tu turn a phrase ... that's so annoyingly wittily put. I'm still muttering grumpily about the huge smile that put on my face.

And I hate run-on sentences, adverbial excesses, redundant multiple adjectives, and dangling participles - being the worst kind of carelessness I am congenitally incapable of them myself, or I'd leave the room fuming --- oh, and pop-ups with vapid and arbitrary rules in Indian Yellow that prevent me from seeing whether the previous couple of comments contain any other nerving snarkiness I could whine about in response.

I was (truly) annoyed to realize that, thinking I was responding in the present moment to a series of posts somewhere below a pretend-discussion of the oscars, I was actually stuck in a timewarp and that the thread had meanwhile inconsiderately moved about three pages past where I was. So that now no one will ever be able to tell (me included) what offense to god-given seriousness caused my painful outburst of prone hilarity.
Even worse, I thereby -- aside from embarrassing myself due to the fault of another, who has yet to be discovered in order to be given a deserved earful -- utterly missed the victory celebrations of our Mod who has so blatantly made a mockery of the democratic process, so that I didn't even think to offer him my grudging congratulations until this moment.
I am chagrined to be feeling so happy and relieved that his miserably ploy worked despite my

Oh my, I now feel utterly displeased because my vocabulary seems utterly insufficient compared with this firework of eloquent goodness. The only solution, I fear, is to take a thesaurus and learn it by heart. Which is a thoroughly boring and frightening prospect. (... Or I could, following some of the earlier comments, leave the world of writing and words alone and go watch porn. Actually, that doesn't sound so bad... :D)
I'm also disgusted that anyone would even think about plagiarising reviews. That's just seriously nasty and hideous behaviour.

That really is reprehensible. To not be intelligent enough to plagiarize the book as well so that one can reveal one's true asininity by then proceeding to review oneself, using someone else's words.
(irritating how someone like myself, with such evident eloquence -- remarked upon by so few -- as well as rugged good looks -- remarked upon by no one except, tangentially, our venerable Mod -- could get side-tracked and lose sight of what's truly important -- other than my own disquietude)

What Shannon said! ;) Oh yes Rule 1..... I'm annoyed too.

I am perklumpked that Danni on her Goodreads authors page Blog posted a really funny photo but didn't bother to tell us about it so I ham forced to say the picture at http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/... is very funny.

Goesta wrote referring to Danni: "I'm stymied (is that whiny enough to count, I wonder?) by your uncouth ability to turn a phrase ... that's so annoyingly wittily put."
I am aggravated that Goesta Struve-Dencher is so erudite, scholarly and plain brainy that he can speak two languages better that I can speak just one. I think that makes him sosexyarrogantabove my intellectual plateau (which is "dumb jock") that I hesitate to even be on the same planet as he.
