So complain about it. I need you guys. I think half the people here only come to watch the Aves & Jerry Show. For some of us, it's the only thing that makes life worth living.

And Aves, if you are studying so intensely where did you find time to send me all those pictures hot guys in their underwear?

Roger Kean | 17278 comments I'm ticked off that Aves didn't send me any pictures of hot guys, ggrrr. And from a snow-bound springtime England, I hope you told Jerry I told you to shoot him, Lucas, for being sickeningly smug…

This morning the sun is out and the sky is blue in Berlin, but I am convinced it's a mirage. Things will return to normal by noon.


Ije the Devourer of Books | 14524 comments Cold and snowy in London

:-D

I want have more Sun and the spring to really to get here, no more snow and cold


message 1257: by Monique (new)

Monique (moniquesmusings) Roger I am totally perplexed by our bizarre weather conditions here in the UK, this time last year we were basking in sunshine drinking Pimms on the patio, this year we need a snow shovel to get down the drive!?!


Ije the Devourer of Books | 14524 comments And a hot water bottle

Monique (moniquesmusings) Lucas... I am extremely upset that Aves only see's fit to share these pictures of men in their underwear with only you, what happened to sharing the love amongst your fellow complainers?!?

Monique (moniquesmusings) Hot chocolate and an open fire:D

Hopefully Helle, we will eventually get some sunshine and that always makes us all feel so much better... sending you lots of healing hugs:D


message 1263: by Anil (new)

Anil (loykalina) | 303 comments Yes or someone who can make soup when we are sick. That is why I hate being single. One has to get up and make their own soup instead of staying in the bed and having a rest.:-/


Ije the Devourer of Books | 14524 comments well there are worse things than being single. Like being with someone who doesn't care if you are unwell and then you still have to make the soup yourself even though you have some one who should be there. Trust me, better to be single than to have an uncaring partner.


message 1265: by Anil (new)

Anil (loykalina) | 303 comments You are absolutely right. Probably I chose a stronger word to describe my feeling for being single than I intended.

Monique (moniquesmusings) Helle, Anil and Ijeoma I am sure our esteemed leader will forgive me just this once for breaking the rules but I think we all need this today ~

Ijeoma I agree with you in that, that is why I am single and I do not need a stupid lover like my ex again *grrr* hate him and his mother, not a past I want to repeat again

Thank you :-) hugs back and I agree with you in that, you can never get to many hugs and laugh to often :-D


Ije the Devourer of Books | 14524 comments I agree too. We need a group hug because apart from Jerry everyone else is either cold, very cold or absolutely freezing :)


message 1272: by Kendra (new)

Kendra (book_lover_too) | 337 comments Need coffee. Or more sleep. After a night of being up and down with my oldest who now has the flu, my youngest is up at 6 o'clock. This is going to be a craptastic day.


message 1273: by Tj (new)

Tj (bluesmokey) | 632 comments I hate that hubby decided to change his days off and so will be off tomorrow. I wouldn't normally mind but it's the why. He wants to go to some hog festival. I mean really why would I want to DO that! I would much rather do a lot of other things, flea market, mall, stay home reading, visit the kids anything but go to some festival where I'll be bored...*sigh* maybe they will have funnel cake.

We have a front moving in soon and so will will go from the 90'sF to the 70'sF. I would love it if it wouldn't be cloudy with a chance of rain but I guess that is the only way this time of year to get cooler weather.


message 1274: by Jerry (last edited Mar 23, 2013 05:35PM) (new)

Jerry Ok gentle people, I may be basking in lovely weather, but I do appreciate snow and wish we actually had winter in LA--his is a legitimate complaint. We only have cold & rain, spring, summer and hot fall. I would dearly like to look out on snow from my window and make snow angels and snowmen. I share your pain, even if I can't really feel it.
But to keep up my image, today I complain that I HAVE to plant tomatoes in my garden.

See now Jerry, you are just rubbing salt in the wounds. My garden, such as it is, looks like a barren wasteland of bare branches untrimmed hedges.

I vehemently complain that you don't know what you are talking about. You are close however, but no banana. Picture old jeans, long sleeve shirt to protect arms, big wide brim hat, old tennies, plain leather gloves if I'm using the shovel, plastic surgeons/painters gloves if I'm planing by hand.
We once had a pool boy that wore only a speedo when he cleaned our pool and we giggled about charging admission.
I can't drink in the sun, gives me a headache.
Oh, and I don't use dark glasses when gardening because mine are so dark (because of contacts) I can't see as well as I need to.
Don't forget our boy dog, MacGyver, is there to supervise, a hard job but someone has to do it.

Tj (bluesmokey) | 632 comments It's hit 84F. Ugh, it's hot.


message 1279: by [deleted user] (new)

I am bedruggeed that people can follow the rules of a TV game show like Jeopardy where your answer must be in the form of a question but they don't get that comments here are supposed to be in he form of a complaint.

Do you think I created a section called section called Chatter with four sections for general chatting because I thought it looked pretty?

Feel free to start a group called the Chatter Department but this group is the Complaint Department. [turning red and steam streaming from my ears]

Grrrrr.

Harrummph!

I am defuted that Tj may think I'm including her comment as part of my rant when in fact Tj posted a perfectly valid comment which was a proper complaint. Tj is a model member and she is much respected and appreciated. Thank you Tj.


message 1281: by Tj (new)

Tj (bluesmokey) | 632 comments Hmmm, I'm not sure I'm happy about being singled out by Lucas. Are you trying to set me up for teasing? You know they others will turn on me like I'm some sort of teacher's pet. No, I don't think I'm happy about that.


message 1282: by Monique (new)

Monique (moniquesmusings) I would like to complain.. oh Esteemed Leader/Dumb Jock/Moderator as I did actually need a dispensation from the rules earlier today, as there were a few ladies within your complaint department for which you are of course responsible that were in need of some warmth/loving/hugs... and as you were unavailable to adequately provide for the group for which you are of course responsible, as you were probably asleep/bonking/cuddling... so NOT jealous!! I took it upon myself to provide the service you were unable to perform. Perhaps you should create a thread, where those in need of the comfort and compassion of their leader could visit and you could administer the love that I am sure will be gratefully received. *hugs*

Anil (loykalina) | 303 comments I hate that I have a stomach ache right now. I shouldn't have drunk cold milk at this hour.:(

*is still jealous of the weather where Jerry lives, therefore, will stom over tomatoes Jerry planted as soon as they are grown*


message 1286: by Jerry (new)

Jerry Legitimate complaint here, last Saturday I planted those 6 bloody David Austin "Shakespeare 2000" rose bushes. (Pretty happy with myself if i do say so). I then realized I had enough room for two more. I called them and they would not guarantee shipping at this late date but I waived the guarantee. In my gardening today, I planted the two new ones, plus the tomatoes. To my UTTER HORROR as I was watering them, I noticed the tag which is "crown princes Margareta"! I am sooooo pissed. Think of the time I will now have to spend calling them, waiting for replacements, digging up the old and replacing with new! Argh!!!!!

Fellow members, now you see why I wrote "[silently preparing myself for a bunch of sarcastic replies about me being autocratic and about the stupid rules] " In this case the emphasis is on sarcastic.

And Jerry don't you dare go back and edit your comments. Members would leave en masse if there was no Aves and Jerry show. It's bad enough that Aves is too busy studying for his pilot recertification thing so he hardly says a word anymore.


JustJen "Miss Conduct" (just_jen) I'd like to complain that I spent 12 hours today keeping my MIL and SIL company driving to another state to shop at IKEA, which turned out to be a mob scene of epic proportions. I am further peeved that I did not buy a single item but did actually enjoy the opportunity to ogle the many gay couples picking out curtains, lamps, rugs, and even one couple fondling the fake fauna.

Now he tells me not to go back and phrase it as a complaint! Well, I edited the tomato and what I wear to garden anyway. What a complaint! ;)


message 1290: by Jerry (new)

Jerry I have a complaint, I hate crowds, I therefore do not shop at IKEA. *shudder*


message 1291: by [deleted user] (new)

I am complaining about that I thought that now I could sleep some of the time on the side again, but I hate that I was close to regaining a stiff neck again and hate that my neck is not healt yet :-(

Hate that I wake up early because of pain and first thing in the morning I need pain killers just to handle the pain :-(

I hate that we are not having spring and warm yet, and I still need two weeks before I can begin on biological medicin, when I have heard about one that have NO pain anymore and can live like a normal again, that is a miracle story and I want to be in that Statistics of miracle stories about biological medicin *GRRR*

Lucas I did complain yesterday, maybe not as much like the others days and today *face palm*

I'm infuriated that I have to ask for clarification as to what Aves is up to, but what exactly is a pilot rectification? Is it something to do with avoiding rear-ending something during push back?

Because I can't give a proper answer and so that Aves does not have to take time away from studying to explain this again, here is a re-posting of a message he posted on March 8th.

Aves wrote:

"I'm somewhat irritated that I'm going to have to push away my laptop/ipad and stay away from here as much as I can, from now until my semi-annual pilot exam in May. On a day-to-day basis, there's very little about my job that's really stressful, and I never have to bring it home. Except for twice a year, like right now. Every November and May, I undergo a two-hour verbal examination, followed by a grueling four-hour simulator session, where we're put through our paces and are thrown any and every emergency, most of which, if I'm lucky, I'll never have to experience in real life. But we are tested this way to make sure we remain proficient, and this should be a great source of reassurance for all passengers.

It's a great source of stress for all pilots because essentially we're putting our reputation and most importantly, our careers on the line. I've generally never had problems with the simulator (flying) work. It's always, always, always the verbal question-and-answer examination that I trip up, because my brain can't seem to work when it feels like I'm being interrogated. It's as if my brain laughs at me, and defies me by slowing down even more, the harder I try to get it to tick over so I can come up with intelligent, logical and correct answers. It's nerve wracking, and the older I get, the more lead time I seem to need to study and memorize EVERYTHING I am going to be asked.

Ergo, two months before, I start cutting back on online stuff, I stop reading m/m-anything, I stop goofing off generally, and I start focusing on getting through another checkride.

It only happens twice a year, but man, am I complete wreck when I come out of it all.

I'm annoyed because my heart is racing, just typing this.
Grrr......"

Ije the Devourer of Books | 14524 comments My feet are killing me. That's my complaint. I was taking part in a Palm Sunday service which I really enjoyed because we got to process outdoors (in the cold) waving Palm fronds and we also read the Passion story and I got to be Pilate. I quite like this cos I fancy myself as a badass
clergy but my feet are failing to live up to this image.

Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea had sore feet.

I see what the problem was. You should have read from the King James. Those pale imitations have some translation irregularities.

Maybe Pilate did have sore feet and that's the real reason he made such a bad decision: sore feet, maybe bunions?

I think mine may may be due to premature aging. I want to complain about the fact that I might be aging prematurely :)

Ije the Devourer of Books | 14524 comments The category for our group says

'Just for Fun -> Outlandish Statements'

I would like to complain because there is nothing outlandish about our complaints. They are all utterly and totally based on fact and proven by science.

There is nothing outlandish about this group :)

JustJen "Miss Conduct" (just_jen) I would like to complain about the tiny shard of wood that got jammed up under my fingernail this afternoon which continues to cause way more pain than a tiny shard of wood should have the power to cause. There is no way I could survive fingernail torture of any kind.
