What grinds my gears? One of my friends says on Facebook she's looking for contracts on an android phone, for under £30 a month. I suggest a £21.50 a-month contract and she says 'Thats a bit too much'. I then suggest a £16.50 contract with O2, but it's not with T-Mobile so she doesn't want it. T-Mobile happens to be her favourite network despite being inferior to the others. :dunce:

Is O2, the Orange guys? From the F1? See!! Sponsors do work!

If you are talking about the ones who sponsor McLaren, no, that's Vodafone. In fact, I don't think O2 sponsor F1...

EDIT: Sebastien Vettel winning everything grinds my gears...
 
When 🤬 gets in one of my eyes on the way home from school. Then I look like a retard blinking really fast all the way.
 
Anyone checked the post count for this thread to see who posts here the most? Seems alot of his posts are either about adults or food....

Didn't quite expect that...

Give me a break, I'm English, compaining is in my nature. :lol:

I can't vent to others around me as most their English isn't up to scratch. Also I have the thread subscribed, and I reply to other posts, it's not all complaining. I would have had another complaint yesterday if it wasn't for my great trip home from work.
 
What's grinding my gears right now is there's no study alternative if you don't want to do PE in my school. If you don't do PE, you have to walk around a field. Total BS.
 
I like how MitchZ06 said most of my posts are about food. Correction, that is JaiAE86. Yes I do talk about adults, but that is to be expected for someone that has experienced what I have. There's things I know that if I told you, you would f eel completely different about me. I am in no position to discuss this. What grinds my gears is just people. People judge when they don't know, they criticize making you feel even worse about yourself, to the point where you have to tell them to 🤬 off and get a life. So, as some arrogant being will likely criticize me for making a 207th post in this thread, I say leave me alone and let me vent, I never did anything to you. -VANDENAL
 
Show some proof as I'm certain I either named him, quoted him or did indeed mean him as the individual who complained the most about food and adults.

Secondly, dude grow the hell up. You're 15 and you've got absolutely jack s*** to be down about, get a grip on your emotions and lighten up otherwise you'll spiral even worse than you probably have in the past. Stop letting what other people think of you control how you feel about yourself....I did and I've lost that stress and am much happier than I was a year or two ago. EVERYBODY is critical including yourself but for christs sake take everything with a pinch of salt! If you care so much about what people think of you and let that stress you out quite simply you are ****ed to no end....

You have nothing to feel bad about nor have to worry about other than schooling and your future. Do you have a job? (Maybe). Do you have a car with no doubt a car loan? Do you have to worry about a mortgage on your house or having to pay rent to tenants/landlords? Do you have dependents that you have to care for? The list goes on and on and on.

The past is the past and only certain things in life are meant to be remembered and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out what they are. I remember when I was your age (4 years ago :dopey:) and I had depression but I worked to kick that by realizing just how damn good my life was at that time even if some of the people in it sucked to high hell. I wish I was back in my early teens because I'm not looking forward to having to work my ass off to get somewhere respectable....
 
Now you've done it. All the barely-teens are gonna gang up on you now. You should know that telling a teen what's what is a struggle not worth the hassle. They think they know all.

At least he puts effort in it!! :(

Go write a book.
 
@MitchZ06: I like how an Australian tries to tell me how to live my life. Like I said, you don't know about me, and you never will. So quit talking about me! This isn't the opinion forums, there is NO need to reply to everything I say. What, are you obsessed with me or something? Anyway, no I don't have a job, you try finding one in my town. And my family is frickin poor, I got a used ps2, gt3 and gt4 last year, lucky to even have got that. Lots of stress. Then the fact that my parents are related (found out after I was born), meaning my mild cerebral palsy, learning disabilities are caused by that.
 
People who say their life sucks (this is NOT aimed at any user whose posted in this thread). I mean, just cheer up! There are tons of good things in everyone's life, so just think about the good things and maybe you will make everyone around you happier as well! :)
 
You're barking up the wrong tree thinking I'm obsessed with you (dude wtf? seriously?) and no, I'm not Australian....I'm from New Zealand but what has that got to do with anything?

Your parents being related is something I can guarantee no-one finds out about before they're born but hey, that's life. I'd rather respect the fact that's what's making them happy and just get on with life....you think you've got problems? I've got Aspergers and that's not the easiest thing to live with, people who've got conditions worse than me and you are out there living life to the full. Take one of the guys in my class at TAFE, we're doing advanced 3D AutoCAD+Inventor as part of an engineering degree (extra curricular for Uni) and he finished the work set out this semester before I did, he's deaf and went thru school with Autism and learning difficulties yet he was able to finish work before ME! That alone makes me believe that if you really just drop the negativity and think positive 24/7 you'll be much better off.

Okay, sorry. I'm sorry. Yes I went a little too far, I'm really defensive, and I believe you. You are from New Zealand, I made an error. Hey I'm not perfect. I don't want to have a situation here, so I'll back off if you back off. Okay Mitch?
 
Guys, no flaming please.
I don`t want infractions to be handed out!! Please!
 
SRSLY?
I don't really see anything that would even warrant any infractions yet you're throwing the BAN word out there like you're the one giving it out?
If you think something wrong has been done, report it. Don't take it upon yourself to issue threats.
 
Ladies and Gentlemen; may we please stop fighting. It's kinda ludicrous you guys were fighting over one little post because someone is gloomy. Just stop it. Grow up already.
 
Sebastien must be a lucky name.

Not really. Considering Vettel's name is Sebastian. And what grinds my gears? Everyone claiming Vettel "lucks his way to winning".

On the flip side, you could just say that everyone else keeps 🤬 it up.
 
When your about to get a Helicopter on GTA 4, and someone who is already in one shoots them, then you..
 
Can everybody please just calm the frigg down?

What is the point of this thread? Let me tell you, a reminder from the very first post:


Had a bad day?

Someone Pee'd you off big time?

Get it off your chest here!

Rant, Rave and Vent some steam.

FOLLOW THE AUP, NO SWEARING/VULGAR LANGUAGE!!

Also, please do not comment negitively on someone's rant, if you dont agree with someones Rant, dont add fuel to the flames 👍

So please, seriously, stop it and use this for what it is.

Otherwise I will just lock this Thread.
