Hey All! I figured this would be a good place have general conversations and rants (when we need to). We're filling up the no buy thread, and some folks don't want to post there because they aren't on a no buy.
Today's rant for me--- My team today is making me crazy! This is why I'm going gray! That's all.

Today's rant for me- People who criticize me in a sneaky way about my weight. Now I know this isn't much of a problem, but why do people who don't even know me say that "I need to eat more", or "You should get the dessert, you're so skinny!" I eat vegan/low fat for my health (I feel way better than when I ate meat) and my weight and BMI aren't too low, I just look lean because I get a lot of exercise around the farm working and do strength training so my bones stay in good shape as I age. I want to snap back with some comment on how they shouldn't judge, but then my good girl side takes over and I just stew.

Something similiar happened to me yesterday, just going the other way I guess. We have to do biometric testing at work for our health insurance. So I go in there and they do a little prick on your finger to get your Cholestorol, Glucose, and some other stuff. When my results were done, the guy says "hmm, interesting". I of course freak out and say "what"; he goes "Everything is really good, boreder line low!" Um, WTF dude? Why the comment?!?! So the smart ass that I am says to him "You probably thought a fat girl would have sugar issues, huh? I'm probably healthier than you." He started backpeddling so far it was comical. People need to keep their ridiculous comments to themselves!!!!!
Oh on another note, BT is becoming a support group.... Just go take a look.

My rant of the day (I seem to have a lot of them this semester) - ok 2 rants 1. It would be great if my clinical year school and school I'm at now were on the same freaking page...I need a letter from a Dean for an externship...School Y says go to School X and get it...School X says go to School Y...I have talked to 6 people over 3 days and still no help! If I didn't want this externship so badly I would give up!!! 2. People who criticize the janitorial staff - if you don't like it do it yourself. This particular annoying person was criticizing one of the nicest people I have met here, who also happens to be mentally impaired and deaf. I coached him for Special Olympics and he is not only super friendly to me and the coaches, but to all the other kids, and he tries so hard - one of our best swimmers!! Annoying people complaint - he mops under the chairs (when they are sitting in them) - the chairs are swivel, they don't have to move, just pick bookbags off the floor, and he leaves the floor too streaky and wet - it's linoleum so it doesn't dry right away. Ugh - seriously go away annoying people!! I swear I don't always complain - it's almost finals, everything is annoying me

You've got to love the political bs zpsid91; I hope they get it together. I am adamently against people criticizing people or things they know damn well they don't want to do themselves. And when you start talking about mentally handicapped people, you literally infuriate me to no end. Some people need to be slapped in the neck.

mrsbaine - I think he does a great job - if you have trash sitting by your stuff that you're going to take out later, he will pick it up and take it out just because he's nice...and he always nods hello and holds the door - so maddening, some people!

My rant of the day is about drivers on the road cause they have been driving me freaking nuts lately and I would rather post here than facebook rant lol:
Get off your damn phone. Nothing more ridiculous than driving next to someone whose eyes are on their phone screen more than on the road.
Stop running stop signs and red lights! OMG!
Use turn signals. Huge pet peeve of mine when someone hits their brakes and turns without a signal.
And lastly, don't go 55mph or slower in the fast lane! And it's like traffic is just heavy enough that I can't get around to pass the person but they are holding up the whole line of cars behind them from going fast. Grrrr. lol.
Oh and check your mirrors or turn your head. I have had several people drift or go into my lane without looking or paying attention cause they think no one is there.
GAH! This didn't seem to be an issue when we were in Cali! lol. Ok, rant over. I feel better lol.

Oh on another note, BT is becoming a support group.... Just go take a look. Oh my, I can't even tell you the number of times I've had a practitioner pull that! My favorite conversation involved a practitioner who refused to believe I have no family or personal history of diabetes (because there is a family history of being overweight) and then expressed shock that my cholesterol/blood pressure were better than hers (her words!). Bodies are made differently for different people and you can't tell what someone eats/does based on their size - in either direction!

lately there have been lots of folks who are living double lives seeking out support from fellow makeup addicts, I have seen 3 now. I have no problem at all with your choices; it's just interesting to see some of the lies and secrets they are keeping.

I have seen one thread asking for relationship advice regarding a marriage and shook my head. I think it was deleted. Is that the one your talking about?
