The voice acting in shows for little kids. Why do they have the characters talk to the audience as if every kid in America is utterly stupid?

I just got a letter in the mail from my county telling me on what days and when it's.....no, this can't be right.....oh holy Celestia it is....LEGAL FOR ME TO USE WATER?!?!?

You mean to tell me if I wanted to say...wash my truck I can only do it on even calendar days from 6-9am and 6-9pm?
Starting May 1st?  Why did I only get this today?  I could have been fined for washing my truck or watering if a cop drives by?

I'm starting to dislike this county.....

When people are sexist
When people are racist
When people make fun of others or beat up others due to stuff... (Ex. Autism, bipolar, ADHD, depression, liking a show... Those things.
Open doors bug me a lot too, and... static. Yeah, static. I like it when it's my dad's ham radio remote base that's having static, because then that means he has to go up there and fix stuff, and he often takes me too, to show me how to fix that stuff. Then, there's always the driving lessons... Also, HAM radios are cool...

Walked into work a few minutes ago to see some of my specials empty and product in the cooler, so I fill it and ask my employee why he didn't fill it....his response:
"Oh, am I supposed to watch the counter?"
Really?  :l

Annoying, but also funny:
when you write a big long post to answer a question, click reply and the post your replying to is gone and the thread was locked while typing it...


oh, also, being bored and having nothing better to do than stalk ts3, skype, gtalk, facebook, dA and this site looking  for people to talk to.....

extra hard drives would solve that

have all your data on the external hard drives and that will keep your comp running smoothly

nah, it's RAM that's full, not the disk.  Gimp, LOTRO, Steam, Chrome, Skype, everything eating the random access memory like candy.

You can turn on Virtual Memory to help that if you have the disk space.  It'll use part of your hard drive as if it were RAM.
Not too sure how much that will help though tbh

When a teacher "teaches" a class by just handing out packets and then sitting on their butt. >:/

What brought this up?
The news about the rant given by high school student Jeff Bliss.

He dropped out of high school at the end of 9th grade. After a year, he realized how important education is and that he wasn't going to get anywhere in life without it. He enrolled himself in high school again, only to end up with... a teacher who does nothing but hand out packets.

So, the drama started when he asked her why they don't get more time to prepare for an important test. She replied with a curseword, telling him to pretty much stop complaining. Some words were exchanged, and his classmate brought out their cell phone and started recording right after the teacher told Jeff to leave the room.

On the way out, he gave quite a speech about how she needs to actually get up and get the students engaged and excited about the lesson. Meanwhile, she just sat there at her desk, going "Please, leave. Bye. Byyye. Bye. Go. You're wasting my time. Leave." He ended it with "And there's a limit when I'm not [complaining], but simply making an observation. Now, I'll leave."

That has to be extremely frustrating for him, though. He wants to learn, but his teacher won't teach him, as well as the fact that his classmates are struggling.

And I understand all too well the annoyance of having a teacher just hand out packets. It's awful. I've had teachers do that to me, and it hit me hardest when my geometry teacher did that. Can you imagine, your math teacher not even bothering to walk you through the steps in a new lesson? Instead, she just hands you a packet, and you're supposed to read it and understand what you're supposed to be doing. That was horrible. The packet actually read more like a guideline for the teacher to show us and explain to us what we had to do. It didn't work very well as reading material for a "teach yourself" kind of thing at all.

Ive just lost all motivation to do anything, I just cannot be bothered anymore work today just.... well I wont go into all the details, but lets say there has been a fair bit of unfairity and distrust among some of the staff

For those who don't know I don't have an "official" Job I work voluntary working towards a promised paid position within the company via an apprenticeship   scheme, to which I've discovered they have no plans to implement for a long while, and during that time I'm at the mercy of a job centre who is constantly getting on my back and now accusing me of false information due to this situation and worse of I decided to help them out today on my day off to assist with some work....  What they wanted me to do fell flat and I spent far more time there doing work that any professional would be paid to do and spend far longer on and the small "Benefit" for helping out on my day off was a complete lie
I'm just a tad broken tonight I think I've lost a lot of hope to one go and it doesn't feel good, just typing all this is just I don't know im rambling Ill just sum up by saying don't get me wrong I do enjoy what I do and my boss is seriously nice and gets what she says she will done I have no qualms with her but guys who run the office and the place well as you can tell I don't like lies especially when they potentially affect the way I live

But regardless my apologies for the slightly Darker Ryo Rant on this one, half felt like sharing half wanted to get it out of my system
