Hey! I was equal opportunity inviter! Everyone got invited at the same time, I think. Except for those who I did't invite at all....is that rude? :)

[Tj]

Hate having to go ALL the time to pain doctor! Would like to have an easy fix for all my pain woes. I also really get discussed with the whole, "You look so good. You must be having a good (pain-free) day." Yeah, like they wouldn't gripe at me to shut the heck up if I told them how I felt all the time:(

A! My dear friend I'm sorry. Crap, rat spit and more crap! Is it the job? The airline industry doesn't exactly have a reputation for building steady relationships with happy homes. Have you tried an in-flight announcement to the passengers, "This is the captain speaking any hot, single gay guy interested in a committed relationship please report to the cockpit immediately." Just a thought.

[Shannon]

lol Lucas, that would be the best announcement ever!

[Aves]

Shannon wrote: "lol Lucas, that would be the best announcement ever!"

Hahaha! That would! And it would almost be worth losing my job! Almost.

Hahaha! Now you’re giving me ideas! No wonder I’m not meeting anybody, I never think of doing anything like this! But maybe I should wait until I’m closer to retirement, then it won’t matter if they do fire me!

[[deleted user]]

Aves wrote: "Hahaha! Now you’re giving me ideas! No wonder..."

A. my dear friend. Do you have to insist that he be an intelligent gay pro football player? I mean intelligent? You couldn't just settle for a gay pro player who hasn't had his brain completely scrambled yet by repeated head injuries?

[Aves]

Lucas wrote: "Is it the job?"

No, not the job. A man will put up with anything about you if they love you and really want to be with you. I’ve witnessed it with my own eyes. I’ve seen completely neurotic, borderline psychotic, certifiably crazy gay men, light into their totally hot, completely adorable hunky boyfriends and publicly abuse them in the most abominable manner. And yet, said hunky boyfriend stays with them and puts up with it. If they behave like that in public, can you imagine how they are in private?

Which leaves me wondering, If these total-whack-job homos’ can get a man and keep a man, and get away with how badly they mistreat their men, then there must really be something totally screwed up with me!

It’s sort of like all these young and still-single shop girls working at Bridal stores, waiting on all these control-freak Bridezillas, all the while wondering how on earth these bitches, with all their outrageous, demanding behaviour, ever found anybody to marry them?!

Okay! Whew…tirade over. I’m climbing down from my soapbox now.

[Aves]

Lucas wrote: "You couldn't just settle for a gay pro player who hasn't had his brain completely scrambled yet by repeated head injuries? "

Oh, I’d settle for one of those, alright. That way, when he tries to say anything intelligent, I can just reach up and close his mouth, clamp my legs harder around him and shout, “Oh, just shut up and do me!!!”.

[Shannon]

Isn't that one of the big questions we all have? How do some people ever find someone to put up with them? And how does my hubby put up with me? Why does anyone stay with someone that makes them feel like a lesser person? Could the sex ever possibly be that good? I doubt it!

[[deleted user]]

Aves wrote: "...there must really be something totally screwed up with me!” "

No way. You are fun and witty, attractive, fit, intelligent and need I say it, well traveled. You are interesting and empathetic, thoughtful and energetic. You make me laugh and you always have a kind word to say. All that and you dress well too. (That suit you wore to the fundraiser fit you to perfection!) I am proud of you! Rog thinks you're the greatest and he is a good judge of character. After all he thinks I'm the bees knees so he must be one smart cookie.

[Aves]

Shannon wrote: "Isn't that one of the big questions we all have? How do some people ever find someone to put up with them? And how does my hubby put up with me?"

That really does beggar the question, doesn’t it?

The longer I remain single, the more I’m convinced that we are not attracted to someone for the reasons we tell ourselves, we don’t reject someone for the reasons we tell ourselves, we don’t love someone for the reasons we give ourselves, and we don’t leave or dump someone for the reasons we give ourselves either.

This whole business of attraction, repulsion, coming together, staying together, and growing apart, is driven on a level far, far below anything we’re conscious of.

Haven’t you noticed, when someone "falls in love" with you, there’s nothing you can do to turn them away, and when someone "falls out of love with you", there’s absolutely nothing you can do to win them back?

I’m convinced that we love someone or leave someone first, and THEN come up with reasons to justify it, and not the other way around. It looks like the reasons come first, but in reality, the reasons come after.

But what do I know? I’ve not been in a relationship worthy of the name in a decade.

Really sorry Tj. There is no reason with the tools available for pain management that they cannot keep you free of pain. I think they are doing a sucky job and aren't even trying to treat you fully.

You humble me. In all earnestness, you make me remember how very little I really have to complain about. Thank you.

May all your doctor visits, no matter how tiring and vexing, bring you a measurable amount of relief.

[Aves]

Laura wrote: "Here's a complaint - why is it that all of my friends live in far away time zones? If I ever get to bed and fall asleep before 2am it'll be a miracle. Then the alarm clock insists I wake at 6 am...."

Grrrrr…….I hate that too. Although I did manage to turn that into a positive while reading Special Forces. Because comments were flooding in from Australia and North America and Asia and Europe, you could literally check in on the group first thing when you woke up, whenever you had a free moment during the day, and again before going to bed at night, and someone, somewhere, would have posted something new.

Damn…forgot again! Complaints! *Slaps palm to forehead*

TJ, I agree with Lucas. Your doctors suck! And I'm sorry you're in pain all the time. On the plus side, your in-laws aren't visiting so you can look at and read all the man on man action you want, right?

Laura wrote: "Effective immediately - every one I know must move to east coast time (USA)."

Okay Laura. Done.

My complaint is that my friends in England are 5 hours ahead of the US Eastern Time zone so if I don't get an email to them in the morning they won't see my email until the next day. :-{

[Justin]

I hate starting my first complaint with I hate, but I do really hate Rule I by not being able to thank Lucas for inviting me to his Complaints Department. I guess to be a member must show, somehow, one has a high ability in complaining. I'm not sure whether to hate that or not.

Regardless. I'm annoyed at Rule 2's business about ending a sentence with a preposition. Hell, isn't it better, easier and more street-wise to ask "Hoo ya goin wif?" than to use the snobbish "Wif hoom are ya goin?" The latta sounds ya goin to listen ta some old fat tart tryin to sing at cha, usually soundin like 'er Calvin Kleins are too tight! S**t, I dunno. And der's der second damn rool I hate. No swearin? Wat yer on 'bout, ay?

I'll let yerz all know me udder hates anudder time, when I feel like rooly complainin. Peace!

[[deleted user]]

Justin wrote: "And der's der second damn rool I hate. No swearin?"

Well we can freaking go nuts saying stuff like No Frigging Fracking! But if we used those nasty four letter words we couldn't have an open group because we'd have to be an adult group and only take members 18 years old or older. That would not be good because then I'd have to do work admitting applicants and folks would not have instant membership like it is now.

The rule about not ending sentences with a preposition was made so people could have have something to complain about if their lives were otherwise perfect.

My own rat spit bad arse complaint is that I cannot see the rules dammit. I wanted to be annoyed by them but darn fool programmers must have exempted founders/moderators from seeing the annoying rules. You see rules really? Drat. I don't. Everybody who can see rules raise your hand. No, use your right hand Preston. Geez. I'd tell him off but the rules say we cannot complain about fellow members except you can complain about me.

Thanks Justin for some really well phased points of protest. It is obvious you are a highly edjumacated writer with strong language skills.

[Shannon]

Oh &%!#&%! I didn't see the freakin rules! I better go thru my posts and delete the cursing, dangit! lol, this is gonna be way harder than I thought. Poop!

Lucas wrote: "That's something else I don't understand. Since when is running a household not work? It'd hard work and it never ends. Plus the responsibility is enormous. My fiancé and I are both responsible for maintaing our home in addition to our duties during the day but I'd much rather just work 9 to 5 and come home to a well organized house with a meal on the table...."

So would I, but I hate that because I work from home I still have to do all the housework and cooking. I don't do the laundry, that fall to my partner, who is always losing one of a pair of socks in the tumble dryer. Actually, I let the dusting take care of itself on the advice of of housekeeping guru Quentin Crisp.

I hate books with copious citation notes at the end which all turn out to only say "Ibid" (which is short for ibidem, and which is only TWO letters longer, so why not use the long version?).

[Roger]

Those f***ing (that's how they do it in The Times) rules claim to show up only on your first post, but only after I posted, which seems kind of odd.

How come Aves is allowed to spell it "pyjamas" and I'm forced to Americanize it to "pajamas", which looks totally stoopid to English (that's British English) ears.

[Roger]

Right. That was my second post. No rules shot up…

[Exiled]

I hate being the one who do all the house work. Why on earth when my partner does the laundry always FORGET one of a pair of socks in the FREAKIN' dryer ?!!!

I work at my home art studio, so I have to do all the housework and cooking too. And my Partner can't even do the Laundry right! How can a genius person doesn't have a clue about managing the household!!

Please pose your comments in the form of a complaint or face the consequences which may include not be served any fairy cakes should we ever serve fair cakes here which is highly doubtful.

Thanks Shannon. The frelling rule against the four-letter word kind of cursing is because the donkeyholes at Goodreads would make this group become restricted to people who are 18 years old or older then we would have to close the group and make people apply
for membership. We'd rather keep it an open group with instant access by keeping the language creatively harsh but not unacceptable for children's delicate ears. This is irritating I know but necessary and you may feel free to complain about it as I am doing my best to do.

Because Roger has an issue with the rules now everyone must suffer with having the rules popup every time you post. You cannot complain about Roger because it's against the rules to complain about other members but you may complain about me all you like.

Everyone is allowed to spell any word anyway they please here. Misspelling is encouraged and Typos are welcome.

[Shannon]

I just hate in when my once lovely computer decides to turn on me and become this slow unmanageable POS that I can't deal with so....I get another new computer then have to figure out how to transfer all my junk! Only to have my shiny new computer have the same fate in 6 mos. Seriously, I'm like the computer killer!

[Roger]

On my iMac, using Apple Mail, I used to be able to copy from any source and paste it into an email wherever I placed the cursor. NO LONGER APPLE! quite suddenly, after stupidly agreeing to a Mail update, anything pasted into an already written email goes at the top and not where the cursor is. This is now forcing me to retype whole passages where I want them, which is not only time consuming it's also vulnerable to spelling errors.

BTW Fracking is not being allowed in Britain, even though we are desperate for all the gas it would release, which is freaking lots of people out.

Just thought I'd add that.

[Justin]

I noticed someone used the word intelligent here.
I'm lodging a complaint! GRRRRR

But Lucas, that's your fault for being 5 hours behind!

[Bill]

If you really want to get pissed and activated about gov't and corps, read Cory Doctorow's new book Homeland his sequel to Little Brother. It is now; it's happening; and you can fight it.

I'm ticked off that Roger Kean author of the magnificent 130,000+ word gay male romance A Life Apart doesn't understand his time zone is called Greenwich Mean Time because while he is up and active in the Mean Time I'm sleeping and that is while they call British time Mean (as in cruel.)

[[deleted user]]

Zack wrote: "How come Aves is allowed to spell..."

I'm getting almost slightly a wee bit imperceptibly perturbed that Zack author of Zack the Art didn't quite comply with The First Rule although I'll let it pass because the complaint was implied though not formally stated plus he did such a great job at calling me an ass (Ok. Luccass) although I'm sure his partner Roger is gritting his teeth and thinking that he should have written Luccarse to use the proper British spelling of the word for beautiful bubble butt cheeks.

[[deleted user]]

Justin wrote: "I noticed someone used the word intelligent here.

Although this comment comes dangerously close to violating the Fourth Rule it is allowed because I originated the use of the word intelligent in this thread and criticizing me is not only allowed but is encouraged.

[Aves]

Lucas wrote: "he should have written Luccarse to use the proper British spelling of the word for beautiful bubble butt cheeks. "

Um…to shamelessly turn the focus back on ME, I’ve STILL got "beautiful bubble butt cheeks”. I acquired them the only way a hapless, genetically butt-challenged Asian man can: through years and years of ballet classes. I may be well into middle-age, but I’ve had no complaints yet.

Aves wrote: "Um…to shamelessly turn the focus back on ME, I’ve STILL got "beautiful bubble butt cheeks."

While A. is technically in violation of the First Rule it can be overlooked because (1) he used the word "complaints" in his message and (2) he does have beautiful bubble butt cheeks.

In reference to Aves' arse I am upset that none of our members has yet set him up with a hunky straight-acting, muscular, gay guy who is into worshipful fidelity to a sweet, funny and cute airline pilot whose name begins with A.

Your fiancé is so incredibly lucky to have you! And never, ever pass up an opportunity to remind him so.

:( Untrue, they arrived about a week ago with an open-ended leave date! They were even here yesterday for my birthday. Spoiled it all as well by just oh, so thoughtfully getting a cake for me and insisting on eating it right then with me. I had the cake I want in the fridge. Darn me and my need to be polite!!!

[Aves]

Tj wrote: " Darn me and my need to be polite!!! "

Girl, just take one for the team and carry on being polite. Politeness and good manners are such a rare commodity these days, and are therefore to be prized. And one day rewarded.

I know you feel really put upon, but you’ll almost never regret zipping it. As long as no outrageous demands are made of you, and you can reasonably tolerate the imposition, you will do better in the long run to keep your reputation for graciousness intact.

Well *bleep*! Weren't they just visiting? Lucky they have you and not me for a DIL seeing as I have a big mouth and homophobes drive me bat*bleep* crazy! *giant hugs*

[Tj]

I know Shannon:( Aves, I really think my in-laws are the exception to the rule about zipping it. I do it for my hubby. He loves his parents. They are homophobes, who think theirs is the only opinion. They and I tolerate each other.

Aves boasted: I’ve STILL got "beautiful bubble butt cheeks”

Show them. I'll complain if you don't!

[Aves]

Justin wrote: "Aves boasted: I’ve STILL got "beautiful bubble butt cheeks”

Oh I would love to, while I've still got them, because I don't know how much longer I can keep these bubble butt cheeks nice and high and tight. They're gonna have to go eventually. Unfortunately, releasing one's bootie shots into the wild, blue, world wide web, is fraught with peril. They have a way of showing up in the most unintended places, such as your boss' computer. Maddeningly inconvenient.

Uh-oh, the Complaint forms are running out.

[Tj]

What the heck do these people do to my toilet!!!! Every time they come it gets plugged and when they aren't here, no problems. So it has to be them!!! Ugh!!!
