I don't know whether this post will be taken down by the mods. I hope not, since it is the only venue some people have to vent. Try not to make an attack on anyone directly, and maybe we'll be okay.



  For you NEW KIDS, HERE ARE THE RULES: 

"B*TCHFest"  is provided as a public service to those of us who have gripes and grievances but who (whom?), for whatever reason, lack a regular forum in which to air them. You are welcome to voice any problems - large or small, important, mundane or ridiculous -  that currently have your panties wadded, your shorts frosted and your gears ground. Don't hold them in and risk future medical issues, wrinkles and/or those pesky gray hairs.

ANY and ALL issues that are plaguing you are open for you to voice; there are no "sacred cows." They say that "feelings aren't facts", so if you're feeling it, it's legit to you. NO ONE is allowed to flame a poster for something he or she writes, however commiseration is not only welcomed but encouraged. Please, no personal attacks against other OH members (at least, not by name) and  ABSOLUTELY NO SURGERY WARS!

I'll start you off with a few gripes of mine, and you all can join in at any time! No limits - come back as many times as you like!

WARNING! Adult content ahead! Posts may (and probably will) contain "adult" content and language. I know that MINE will. Rated TV-MA.




- Ohmigod, every time I get anywhere NEAR having Christmas spirit, some ****waffle comes along and ruins it for me!!!!! Some stupid girl walked in front of my car yesterday (mid-block,  not at crosswalk) without looking. If I hadn't been watching her and her little posse, I would have killed her. But who is the asshole in this scenario? Me, apparently, since I had the audacity to beep at her. I actually wanted to get out of the car and beat the **** out of her.

- Ceridian COBRA: thanks for screwing up my payments and cancelling my health insurance. Happy holidays to me, huh? I hope nothing happens before I can get new coverage that we can't afford.

- I don't want to sound like a broken record, but I'm tired of being unemployed and tired of sending out prayers and positive thoughts to the universe and getting nothing back. What's the point?

- People who are threatening to leave OH because of recent developments and banishments: just go already. And don't let the doorknob hit you in the ass on the way out.

Okay, time for breakfast. It's your turn, kids. Have a happy holiday harangue!

 Based on the amount of traffic on the main board, I think most of the folks DID leave.

I hope not - some of us have to stick around so that newbies know that there are 4 surgeries and they need to look at all of them before letting an insurance company run their life!

As far as gripes -

I HATE having this $#$#$@% virus. My pouch hates most of the stuff it usually loves, I'm always tired, and I too have no tolerance for idiots (who abound. Why do we let them reproduce???)

I resent the local school board - our schools are still in session today where the neighboring districts have been out this week. As a result, many local families pulled their kids for vacation early and now the kids that are left are just marking time doing nothing in the classrooms because otherwise the teachers would have to just reteach everything for the kids who are gone. Teachers earn their pay every moment, but paying them to babysit (which is what happens when half the kids are out on vacation) is an affront to all the taxpayers who send their kids to learn!

And whoever turned on the slush and rain in northern Illinois - you can turn it off now. Please send sun or snow, not this intermediate junk.

Thank you - that is all.

 Simply going to rant about my brain.

It failed today.  Twice already only five days since the last time.  

Hopefully this is it for the day.

 I've had this cold for a week and it just wont go away, damn you cold leave my body!!!!

 My children ( adult ).  Someone on here once posted " you are only ever as  happy as your least happy child". One of the truest things ever written. My children are not demanding, not ungrateful. They are decent, responsible adults.  Most of the time they sort out their own problems and we are delighted to help when we can.

But I just want NOT to worry for them. One gets life sorted, you sigh with relief, and the next has a crisis. That gets sorted but before you put the phone down you get an e mail fom the next.........!

But, despite this being a b***hfest,  I know I shoud be counting my blessings!

Happy Chistmas everyone.

Thanks Bette for posting this, I am usually the last person to post a day late but I am right on time today!

Here is my F$@*ING laundry list!

#1- I am now single again because my boyfriend decided he wanted to go back to his baby mama! Why the hell did you waste 3 months of my precious life, if you knew you were going to go back to those crumbsnatchers and that hooker!! That is why I don't date men with kids. I am so ANGRY that I could snatch a natural knot in everyone involved.

#2- I hate Christmas!! I promise that every Christmas I am going thru some type of family or relationship related drama. WTF is really wrong with me, why do people pick me for the bullcrap??

#3- My family sucks!!

#4- My job BLOWS!!! I work for a Catholic hospital full of devils!!

#5-  I am hungry all the FREAKING TIME!! I am so stressed out because of my relationship woes, my job sucking a$$, my family getting on my nerves, sagging skin, etc. that all I think about is food. Sometimes I dream of being fat again so that people would just go back to ignoring me.

#6- My nosey A$$ coworker. I wish she would just shut her LAME A$$ the hell up!!

#7- My stupid truck needs electrical work done, no heat in the back seats and needs as new tires. I will be slipping and sliding in the snow this year - WHY ME GOD??

#8- My high rent!! I wanted to move but my credit would not allow me to, so I was stuck paying for this place for another year.

That is it for now but I bet you I will be back with more ****!!

"...snatch a natural knot in everyone involved."   ROFLMFAO!  Thanks for that!

"Why the hell did you waste 3 months of my precious life"

Sweet Jesus. How ******g old ARE you???

That is why I don't date men with kids.

Soooo...how did this charmer get through your radar?

WHY ME GOD??

Why NOT you??? Why anyone? **** happens. Rent is high EVERYWHERE, most of us have had our credit score damaged by LIFE recently. We ca't fix it---neither can you.

I love you. You are officially my hetero lifemate.
