I'm terribly sad and aggrieved that my old and beloved campfire song has been mistaken for profanity. It is a sweet natured and slightly cheesy old favourite amongst the camping fraternity! You all need some sort of dirty mind cleansing enema to wash the filth from your warped and twisted minds. You know who you are!! Spoogebaya .... Shame on you Danni!

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.

Absolutely true story: My son's science teacher tried to convince the class that a jizzbaya monkey was a real animal that lives in the Amazon rainforest. Talk about warped and twisted (but quite funny) minds! I don't think he's still teaching. Too old skool.

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

I'm incredibly annoyed that I'm not the one who had the uberawesome idea for this group. I'm especially resentful that I didn't find it before today, although people have been complaining here for over a week. How come nobody mentioned this to me before? - I'm hurt, really really hurt. Complaining is the next best thing to do besides sleeping and eating after all.
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. "

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!

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.
I'm disgruntled that many people were thanked just now but I wasn't since I didn't vote for the book since it turned out to be too late for that since I saw the poll only after it was closed. 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.
"Yeah. More snow. I'm so excited," she says with a total lack of enthusiasm. In fact, there may have even been a not-small amount of disdain. This is a quote from my brain as I gaze out my window.
I am supremely peeved that I have not yet thanked my awesome GR friend Kim Possum for inviting me to this whiny group lo these many days ago. A backward and late 'thank you' to you KP! *begrudging hug*

I dejectedly and reluctantly agree.

*shuffles away, grumbling like an old man.*
I wish I had seen the snow in Tucson, but I missed all 5 inches of it. I missed winter last week, now it's summer :)
I really am annoyed that I have to suffer through 63 degrees right now. It's too cold for me! I'm wearing a jacket & a scarf while inside. I could never live where there's snow. It's neat to see and experience maybe once.
Elizabetta wrote: "I am supremely peeved that I have not yet thanked my awesome GR friend Kim Possum for inviting me to this whiny group lo these many days ago. A backward and late 'thank you' to you KP! *begrudging ..."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!

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.
Elizabetta wrote: "We need rain, I love snow. It is a gloriously 64 deg. sunny outside. Hate me now, harumph."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!
I'm irritated that there are so many people to offer up rain - that's what I want to do! We have sooooo much of it...
Soooo ticked off that we can't have some of your rain Shannon. You can't imagine how this truly cheezes me off, like...MacD's Big Mac supremely cheezy nacho doritos cheezed off. dang, it's lunch time. Gosh darn it, I HAVE to go eat something.
Well crap, now I'm supremely annoyed that Elizabetta has made me hungry for junky food that I can't have! Meaner :)
I'm annoyed that JustJen got me all confused thinking it was Wednesday when it's only Tuesday. JustJen wrote: "I would also like to add how unbelievably peeved I was when I sent an excited Happy Hump Day email to Jen4607, only to be informed it is only Tuesday."
Well, so put out that I had a simple tuna sandwich and carrot sticks for lunch. Not a bit of cheese to be found. If you don't count the book I'm reading now, that is.

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 am positively fuming that Cmbwey thinks that writers should waste their precious time writing big old long books for him to read when they would rather be watching porn.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.
I'm incredibly miffed that Cmbwey has spent so much time reading when he really should have been watching porn. What a waste :-(
I'm really miffed because I had to go out and have lunch today so I've missed all of these very serious and important complaints. Who's watching porn and where is it being watched - only asking so I can avoid it at all costs of course. Might have known the jizz monkey woman and Mr Cumbaya are involved! Tsk!
Porn! I'm annoyed because now I want to go scope out some NSFW threads but I can't since I'm at work.
I am really annoyed to hear that someone is plagiarising Monique's reviews. What is the point of that? Really just sad and somewhat pointless too.

Ijeoma wrote: "I am really annoyed to hear that someone is plagiarising Monique's reviews. What is the point of that?

Perhaps they should be named and shamed ? I feel hurt for Monique and Becs.

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 so aggravated that I am so flippin cold! The furnace isn't kicking on and it's now down to 61 in my house. BRRRRR!

Oh wait, that's my workplace!"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.
I feel compelled to add to the raucous chorus of disapproval spearheaded by Cmbwey and Lucas, descrying the complete failure of my composure occasioned by the previous 20-odd, distressingly snappy comments that have rolled over this thread like an unpleasant downpour, forcing me to witness myself rolling around the dusty slovenlyness of my bare floor in helpless, uncontrollable barks of laughter ... despite the fact that I am - seriously - having a lousy day and feel too crappy to live.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.
And now in reference to my previous post I must needs report what just happened, since it is a perfect example of how my deplorable day has been going as well as of the wretched inability to nest posts by response, which I complain about at great lengths elsewhere to people who probably won't listen anyway: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

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.
Ijeoma wrote: "Monique just told us that someone is plagiarising her reviews. ."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)

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.

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.
