Okay...lets just have a thread in which we can each rant about the shit that pisses them off in their lives.
I'll go first.

Okay....so, my work schedule keeps being changed at the last moment whenever it seems that I've other made plans. My girlfriend is beginning to hate me because "I'm not there enough, and you never spend enough time with me." Even though I need to work so that I can have money to do shit, or perhaps see my friends once in awhile... but, "All I want to do is hold you" is driving me so fucking nuts, because I love her, but lately she's been crossing the line, and I might have to axe this relationship. As is I have NO me time (I post here...to take my mind off bullshit. menial, non-social, and mindless activities are all I do, because these little things keep me sane)...I haven't been able to get a decent NIGHT's sleep in about 2 weeks...partly due to chronic depression, and being extremely irritated with the bullshit in my life.

On top of all that, my family is been fucking with me hard-core...
All of my friends are either in jail, moving off, or heroin addicts...
And one of them is even needier than my FUCKING girlfriend. He gets pissed because he thinks I ditch him, he's possessive...and he's just as depressed as I am lately, even more so, and is smoking about 12 balloons of heroin a day, no SHIT, TWELVE!!!

I think I broke a small bone in my foot when took a small break from the restraunt...and went downstairs to the garage and slapped a roundkick on a cement pole. (I was PISSED)

I was PISSED because I work in a place where everyone speaks thai, you don't know if anyone's talking shit, because they're all smiles, even if some of them hate your ass. And they stick together and to their own, not letting anyone else know what's going on if real shit's going down, "Kon-jai"

But they're the one's you turn to to bitch about asshole customers. One of the guys that's worked there for awhile who always takes breaks with me is leaving, because his parents are coming back from thailand and forcing him to move to texas and essentially join a monestary out there. He's thirty, but he has ABSOLUTEKY NO CHOICE IN HELL of disobeying them, because of the whole cultural ephasis on filial piety.

And...let's get back to the customers...
Camels (people who ask for water constantly, or anything else for that matter, especially when it's shit their server is supposed to get them, not the busser)
Kids: you know the old saying, "watch your kids so they won't get into trouble"...it only works sometimes. I watch families all night, with the parents watching the kids sqealing and screaming, running around in the middle of the restraunt (I can just imagine a server tripping over one with a flaming entree, or something) and throwing food on the floor. Have YOU ever tried to clean up rice that's been GROUND into carpet. Or better yet, pick up a highchair that you think is clean, only to place your hands on it and feel a mysterious sticky wetness????!!! These parent's watch their kids, and laugh, and think it's funny....
and then, THEN they tip 10%, because, GOD-FUCKING-FORBID they tip more than they give to their mormon ass church as tithing.

(Once you work as a busser in a restraunt, you should never be on the jury for a child murder case...because you've more than likely weighed out the pros and cons in you're mind.)

Campers: people who sit and take residence at their table. They just sit there until an hour after the restraunt closes...and you just WISH you could say something to them to get them to leave, but you can't be rude...and the tables that come in just before the shift end that end up tipping shitty.

Then you just have the general assholes...Three different small things piss me off the most;1) "do you have chopsticks, all Oriental restraunts have chop sticks" We are a THAI restraunt...CHOPSTICKS are not part of thai culture, "Why not..." Because your mother should have swallowed you, and/or your daddy should have shot you in the sink.
2)Asking me for shit their servers should get them.
3)bitching about the prices or the time/service. Okay, yeah sometimes mistakes are made...but our prices are MORE than fair...they are ridiculously low for the quality of food, the labor, and the portions. If you cannot afford it...then that's fine, order something different, but don't order and THEN bitch. Those types of ignorant, unmannered swine should just go hit up the dollar menu at taco hell. **** them, of all the unmittigated gaul, they have the audacity to say something. If I could kill them and get away with it...I would give them their chopsticks...up their ass SIDEWAYS!

Every now and then, we get a true asshole, or a drunk, who starts name-calling...or posturing about not wanting to pay...unfortunately policy is to call security...but for once I'd like to have somebody take a crack at it....that way I could announce afterward the problem with underestimating and mistreating those that serve you...that they should be given a little recognition...I mean, Jesus...when I say, "Have a goodnight, sir" half the people either grunt, or put their noses up in the air and walk out.

Oh, and...it hurts when I piss. My back hurts...I'm pretty damn sure I have a kidney infection, and I don't have health insurance.
I broke the door to my room (a 13 by 8 inch HOLE from repeated left hooks, and broke it furter down with a knee that pushed wood and the interior shit inside out the back), so now it wakes everyone up whenever I watch TV.....

I'm pissed...but don't worry, I'll be OKAY...I just needed to rant.

oh...believe me I keep that shit in mind...but I always have this little voice in the back of my head that tries to tell me that doing so would put me in jail.


In the time it took from my last post to this one...An old friend came to visit to pick up his shirt and some DVD's I let him borrow.

This kid looked like shit. I know he's been doing speedballs lately...he's still broken up about his ex...he looked like he was tweaking, he was crying about his life...asking why I haven't been chilling with him lately (again the same explaination as above)...and he started talking about suicide.
I think I managed to talk him down..
he started crying about his Grandfather's death, and how he'd stolen some money and an heirloom from his Grandma, and how he's been trying to pay her back. He said his Grandpa loved him, he was the favorite grandchild...and he probably is looking down on him from heaven and hating him for all the shit he's doing, and he's probably really unhappy about a monage he had with HIS COUSIN and her lesbian girlfriend.

I can't make this shit up.

Hey what are friends for?

Garland

...and now, on the news today, I had to watch several of my friends get unlawfully beaten and abused by police, the national guard, and the military fucking police. It sucks...don't get me wrong, I have a few police officers and SWAT team guys that I train with, and consider friends, even...but this is a flagrant and disgusting, outrageous display of excessive force. Kent State 2.

here's the SLC Tribune's version of the story:

"Police raid rave party in Spanish Fork Canyon
Party's over: 90 officers from several agencies cite 60 at the event, which had more than 400 people in attendance
By Michael N. Westley
The Salt Lake Tribune

About 60 people were arrested Saturday night when police officers busted an illegal rave in Spanish Fork Canyon.
***Those arrested were cited on a variety of charges including the possession of illegal narcotics, weapons violations, DUI, illegal consumption of alcohol by a minor, disorderly conduct, assaulting a police officer and drug distribution.
***The youngest of those cited was 15 years old, said Utah County Sheriff's Sgt. Dan Gilbert.
***Police in Utah County have monitored several raves this summer and have grown increasingly concerned about their legality and safety, Gilbert said. When detectives got word that another party was planned for Saturday, they set to work to make sure they got their point across that such activity was not welcome in their area.
***"The Sheriff's Office will investigate and look into and find an illegal mass gathering going on, we will take the appropriate action to stop the party at that time," Gilbert said.
***Investigators learned that no permit had been requested for a mass gathering which requires a bond and Utah County Commission approval for groups larger than 250, said Gilbert. Police learned around noon Saturday that the rave would be held in the Diamond Fork area of Spanish Fork Canyon and assembled about 90 officers from several agencies to enforce crowd control.
***Undercover officers filtered into the party when the doors opened about 9 p.m. By 11:30 p.m. police confirmed that more than 250 people were in attendance and stormed the party. During their two hours at the DJ-driven dance party, undercover officers had observed a multitude of illegal activities including the sale and consumption of drugs such as cocaine, ecstacy, alcohol, methamphetamine and marijuana.
***"The sale of drugs at these parties is so prevalent that at this particular rave party, drugs were offered to local off-duty emergency medical service personnel who were contracted to be there," Gilbert said.
***A 17-year-old West Jordan girl overdosed on ecstasy, police said. Most of the participants were between 15 and 30 years old and were from Spanish Fork, Springville, Provo, Payson, as well as Davis and Salt Lake counties, Gilbert said. Two security guards hired by the promotor were arrested for the possession of cocaine and ecstasy and Spanish Fork police made two DUI arrests as partyers drove out of the canyon, he said.
***Most of the 400 or so ravers left peacefully.
***But others were detained if they had been seen doing something illegal or showed visible signs of impairment, said Gilbert.
***In a sweep of the area after the crowd had been controlled, which one raver said was executed with unnecessary force, police found a plethora of drugs and drug paraphernalia scattered on the ground, Gilbert said.
***Brett George told Fox News 13 that officers stormed the party and treated attendees unfairly, including beating one man that was trying to film the bust with a video camera.
***Police want parents of teenagers to know the dangers of illegal, clandestine rave parties. Gilbert said that in addition to heavy drug use, raves attract sexual assaults, violence, theft and promote unsafe driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. "


BULLSHIT!!!


Here's what some of the "attendees" have to say;
"Sending a message"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I am really sick of our legal system, our law enforcement, and our military justifying unfair and cruel actions by saying that they are "sending a message" to all the "bad guys" out there. It's not OK to treat people unfairly just to make some stupid fucking point. That's what terrorists do. Crashing airplanes into the twin towers and the pentagon is "sending a message." Blowing up buses is "sending a message". Planting a bomb in a public building is "sending a message."

I hate it when U.S. police, military, and judges try to rationalize their unfair and horrible actions by using that same rationale that they just "wanted to send a message".

**** your extended jail sentences and ridiculous fines. **** your shock and awe military strikes. And **** your tear gassing, AK-47 toting, dog biting, tazering, SWAT team attacks on a bunch of kids trying to listen to some good music and have a good time. You are not justified regardless of how important you think your little cause is.

Do you get my message?"

"I never thought they would go to that extent...

honestly, 3 sheriffs could have told everyone that the party was done and they needed to leave... but, why not show some muscle? your tax dollars at work, kids!"

My Last Versus (the name of the rave...a bit ironic, I think) Bitch
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I already did one write-up on the official statements thread. I tried to be calm and keep my head through the whole thing to really try to make the point, but by the time I got through it, I was so fuckin' heated, I could barely focus for the end of it, and still I just can't calm down. I just really don't need this kind of stress right now. As if dealing with stupid shit wasn't hard enough at the moment, I'd rather worry about keeping my shitty cell phone working, or paying off my credit card, or getting laid, which are all losing battles anyways, but what the **** can you do?

I was steamed about this whole "threatened with a gun" thing on a lesser scale last weekend, and now a million times worse last night, and all I can fuckin' do is sit around and get even more pissed off. Grrr, I'm so fuckin' mad."

"You should be pissed! Now take your anger and stand up against them."

"i have been up without sleep because so many of my friends are having a hard time. what happened was bullshit and i hope somebody pays for it."

"**** police brutality, **** living in a police state, this aggression will not stand!"

"I get their message. Their message is YOU ARE EITHER WITH US, OR YOU ARE A TERRORIST." (who could mistake a cuddly little candy raver for a terrorist?)

"Im so angry right now, i have my mothers hippy genes and soul just rouled the **** up in me. what i saw in that video is exactly what i saw other "communist" countries doing to THEIR PEOPLE."

"**** the corrupt cops with their anus violating plungers and their 41 shots, standing behind a blue wall of silence. You betray our trust!"


I'M INTENDING TO POST MORE...ALONG WITH A VIDEO
A VIDEO OF HOW IT WENT DOWN...right before they tackle and beat the cameraman to the ground.

Whats up crew- I just got out of the Utah county jail after being unfairly beat down and put face to face with a very angry k-9 unit. I have bruises and scrapes but my fucking faith in Utah promoters is dead. I am in touch with my fellow jail birds and we are compiling our case. Everybody give big props to those of us who stood up for our rights as human beings not just as people trying to party. Much love and respect to Alisha, Paul, Jeff, Mickey, Matthew, Trudy, and all the others I spent time with in the slammer. You guys are the shit.

They have physical proof! They confiscated The permit, the insurance, all permit applications that they had in a folder the cops took and refused to return.

BoarSpear

DUDE you are forgetting the fact the the police are your fiends...oops there goes muh spellin agin...
Its like i said in the other thread the battle for the hearts and minds of the american youth has been lost...they shall reap what they have sewn...its just a matter of biding our time...check out this little rant from another forum...

"There are not many men in the world with any backbone left. Real men got crowded out by weaklings who harnessed the power of finance and legal loopholes. Real power is what you can do in the parking lot after the meeting is over. If the shit were real, I would be driving some lawyer's car right now. His scalp would be drying on the grill. Civilization is nearly over with. Your bullshit is falling to the ground. Your little moral's are worthless and I am getting my kicks telling the truth as you drown in your lies and cowardly weakness You don't like the things I have to say? So? tough shit! Survival of the strongest species, mother f@#kers...."

Oh yeah i would say those in power have gotten a little overconfident...bush and his freedom of speech zones...as president of the U.S.A he oughta know the whole damn country is a freedom of speech zone...
its okay the tide IS turning...talk to a vet or a young kid...niether one respects or trust or government...sure the weak minded fools still follow blindly along...but the weak dont matter anyway...less than 15% of americans participated in the revolutionary war need i say more?

Garland

You need to check that clip, man.

I have friends that went there...and I can't get ahold of them on their phones...I'm just praying that they aren't in the hospital, or in jail for some bullshit charge.

Even worse...I used to train with one of the guys that did (I mean TEACH) the Less Lethal Amunition, Crowd Control, and some Sniper and Urban Combat classes at the Farm. www.farmpolicesupply.com (I think he's a fire chief now...but he used to train over with Khru Bernales.)

I hope that he wasn't involved in this, because that would suck.

I have pals on both sides of this shit, so I'm torn up about this.
But I can honestly say that in THIS CASE, the Cops were soooooooo in the WRONG!
