UPS (United Postal Service) and FedEx (not sure what that stands for) are the two major shipping
services here in the United States. On Friday, I ordered a new PocketPC, some extra flash memory,
and a flash memory-to-USB adapter from New Egg. I knew that, in order to get the package here on
time (I will be leaving for a trip early tomorrow morning and won't return until late Sunday
night), I would need to use next day shipping (since it takes awhile for the shipping info to clear
the New Egg office/warehouse). I saw about a 5 dollar difference between the UPS and F...

I work in customer service, taking orders over the phone and such. I Really don't understand
why people are rude to us, I can't help but think of the old adage, "Don't bite the hand
that feeds you" to me being rude to the guy whos writing down what you order doesn't make sense.
For example (I work with pizzas) oops, it was hot sprinkles, not half sauce? oops. I bet that
burned. I can understand people complaining for a genuine reason, something wrong with the pizza
or it was late or such, but people ringing up and complaining, then talking your ear of...

OK I use the bus for transport right to get into the city, It takes so long about 40mins or more to
get into town and I have to sit near people who stink from body oder. Come on take a bath please lol
you don't have to use fancy perfumes to cover up the smell but at least do something to reduce
it. The next person you site next to isn't guaranteed to be smell impaired. Maybe wash them
cloths you wear every few days or so. I also hate the loud girls who sit in the bus and play their
hip-hop music, I'm only saying that because you never hear someone crank up th...

Hi everyone! This is just going to be one big rant cos i am so angry and i have to get it out
or ill explode! One of my best friends (who i also happen to have feelings for) has a
boyfriend, now thats a bummer on its own to me but it gets worse! Her boyfriend is an abusive
(damn wish i could swear), pathetic excuse for a "man". Me and all my mates are only 17 and so is he
but hes so abusive to her! Theyve been together for just over a year and as much as it upset me
at first i got along well with him becuase hes into computers etc and so am i so we ha...

well, it's not really a vent but it's not something i need help on either. i've just
been feeling down on myself. i know i am not the easiest guy to get along with but my actions
recently have been overboard. i've been trying to pinpoint where it's coming from. best
answer i can think of is that trap17 makes my emotions scramble with all sorts of emotions that are
sometimes hard to control. i take everything personal and i think i get too deep. i don't think
i'm crazy, i think it comes from loving trap17. the real world is embeded in it. happy...

Well here is my Vent . Anything said in this vent, can't be used against me in any other
thread, this is my opinion and f you don't like it don't read it. Actually thats what this
Vent is about, I can't believe the number of members that Post replies to topics that they
haven't read, They read so much then reply, And what they had posted in their reply was
explained in a link on the first post. If people want to dis Peoples post's then go and read up
on what is been talked about, then you will have a stronger case when you oppose their ...

Ok, first off, this post is extremely hypocritical but it has to be said. What really grinds my
gears is when people go out of their way to dis and make fun of people who like certain things. For
example, someone goes to a Tv show's website just to post "This show sucks". I mean, why the
hell bother? Why not just deal with it, accept what other people like, and get on with your life.
But noooooo, these jerks have to go and try to make other people feel bad so they can maybe just
feel a little bit better about their pathetic lives. Harsh, I know, but sometimes tr...

We use this vent so gracefully without even thinking how it feels,but happily,this thingy cant feel
so its kinda alright.Ever been in a situation where the person in front of you is clearly using you
as a vent for his frustrations?The weird part being that you can retaliate,but something inside of
you sort of prevents it. You now that you can fight back and shatter the whole purpose why the
person approached you n the first place,your insides are screaming for payback,but nevertheless,you
keep quiet.what would you do in such situations?...

So we have The Vent, for people to complain. Well I think some people are complaining TOO much. I
see that there are some people that have more than three topics in there, and some of them could
probably be meshed together. I think that people should just have maybe 1 or 2 topics in there, one
of them could be off all their vents, like their family/friend/boyfriend/girlfriend/people at
work/school problems because i think those could very well be put together. And things that have to
do with something different could be in their other venting topics. But I just don't...

Just recently in my town an issue has come up that has my whole campus in a fluster. I was reading
my colleges news paper and right on the front page, first article, in big bold letters, "OUTDOOR
DRINKING GAMES MAY FACE A BAN" Ok, being a local to my town for the past 9 years and I am now also
a student, I have realized how biased this "News Paper" actually is. To begin with, the reason this
ban has been brought up because there is over 75 Beer Pong Tables outside on peoples porches (it is
currently fall and its cold so there where a lot more). However, the article mad...

*breathes deeply* And... begin. *breathes deeply again* *screams* *Fortunately, this is the
vacuum of the internet, which transports no sound, and so nobody DIES from the BLOODLOSE from their
BROKEN EARDRUMS* Ah, that feels better. Used to do that in the soundproof freezer at work. Until
it turned out it wasn't so "sound proof" after all. /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle"

Right,today I had about 68 credits,when i returned later today i found that my credits have been
reduced to 64 and i got a warn.NOW! I know for a fact that all that i posted was not copied you
can search the intire net (i even help you) and you will not find that i posted any copied matrial,i
also didn't swear or abuse anther user.SO I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY WAS I WARNED? /mad.gif"
style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":angry:" border="0" alt="mad.gif" /> Or is this the way of
"trap17"?...

Let me start off by saying i tend to follow the sound of my own beat, its not that i am like that to
be different, it is just how I am. Since elementary school I have worn mostly black, by junior high
my whole wardrobe was almost all black. People made fun of me, and it sucked. But then by 8th grade,
everyone was wearing black and listening to the music i had already been listening to, and suddenly
i wasn't 'dark' enough. But anyway back to the original point of the topic. So I will
use Hayden Christensen as an example, he used to be on this show called High...

ok, i know myspace is a website like any other out there in the world, but what is it that people
like about it so damned much? i mean a year and a half ago NOONE knew about it....and it has been
the cause of many young ladies being picked up by these oldperverted men and being raped etc...lol
before we had to worry about chat rooms....not anymroe its myspace they need to be worried
about....about a week ago a 3rd grader asked me how to set-up a myspace account, and i was like pshh
im not going to tell you, you shouldn't be on a site like that..lol but please tell me...

I hate it! My teachers used to copy 800+ papers for dumb one-sided crossword puzzle/coloring
assignments. Who the hell does that... oh wait, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY TEACHERS. That's stuff
for elementry students. And there was always 500+ copies left. They only needed to copy like...
50-100 sheets. That caused a major paper shortage in the school, teachers had to bring in their
own. Serves them right. Stupid bubbleheads. It really ills me when people just scrape a perfectly
fine sheet of paper because they made a mistake the size of a quarter. I did that once by ...

I love The Vent. I love complaining about things. But sometimes I love using bad words. So anyway
let me get to the point of this post. The moderators claim that many young children visit this
forum, so therefore it is OUR responsibility to control our language, right? I believe this is
absurd. If a young child visits this forum, or any other vulgar site, it is no one's fault
except the parent's. The parent is the person that should monitor whether the child is exposed
to bad words, it is not our job to do so. So therefore, I think we should be able to use lang...

I dont really care if you guys care what i have to say below this line or not, but its a good vent

Rules Of The Vent The Vent is a place for members to have a yell about whatever they
want. However, this forum is not a place to break the board rules . This means (but is not
limited to) no swearing and/or use of other vulgar language. If you wish to use such language, it
MUST BE CENSORED . Repetitve censored language in a post will result in a warn on the first event.
If you try to get past the censors you will be temporarily banned (eg by using a 1 instead of the
letter i). The vent is no place to start fights with members or offend other members ...

i know this probly isnt how you make "additions" to another post but i dunno how to work alot of

my friend Liz w/ the drawing thing and art thief thing isnt that much of an issue any more because
she hasn't been really attacking that as much (mostly because nothing new came up concerning

I feel so sore about this person right this minute. Thinking about her makes me grit my teeth,
that's how much I hate feeling what I feel right now. Uggh! She's not even smart!
She sort of thinks she is but she's definitely not! I'm not saying I'm smarter but
at least I'm grammatically sensitive. What does she know that I don't anyway? So sure, she
is in the position to boss me around but to do what she did is way foul!...

I just looked at my topic 'Women' and saw it was closed because it invoked some harsh
emotions from people. Honestly so what?! This forum was made for people to vent about something
that's bugging you. I made the post because I was angry at my wife, and it was just a way to
let go of the evil spirits, words, or w.e. For it to fuel the whole "sexism" or "he's an idiot"
please save it. That's the beautiful thing about a forum..If you don't like it move to the
next topic and if you have constructive criticism post it up. It wasn't the w...

This contains adultish content. So dont read if you're a prude or 13 or something like that
ehhh! So I'm talking to this internet friend person right.. Not really a friend, more
like.. Someone who talks to me when hes bored, and vice versa.. Anyway.. He is telling me how he
has a date tonight. I'm like oh wow cool... Because when we were first talking he seemed heart
broken by an ex girlfriend and whatnot.. So I thought it was really cool that he was going out
again, even if he was just going to get boned. Anyway. Im like "Getchu some!" meaning.. Ge...

Okay Im extremely upset at the moment.. I didnt want to post this on my own forum because it deals
with some of the members and such, so I figured.. Why not come to my new found home and make them
endure my rambled and jambled rants and raves. Cheers. Im reallllllllllllllly sick of people
telling me to excuse other peoples behavior. Like.. If someone is a complete ass to me, everyone is
like. Oh Amby, you're being SOOOO immature, just get over it and make up with the person
already.. So.. I'm supposed to be all happy go lucky when people are rude and tell me to ...

Especially when they haven't used it or seen it before. I mean, you know that saying,
"Don't judge a book by its cover."? Apparrently, not many people know it. I was at the local
GameStop, when 3 kids were talking about how stupid Bush was and how they hated it. I couldn't
stand it so I went over there and asked, "Do you even know anything about him?". They replied,
"Ma'an, I don't need no dude comin' over herr' tellin' me what I think!".
So I was just standing there amazzed by their stupidity and awful use of grammar when their pa...
