What Makes You Angry Today?

The accent is.......unique

Is that what we`re calling it these day`s. ;)

man I have been away far to long.

But then at least we don`t have Chavs in Germany. That has gotta count for something. Good thing Swimming doesn`t get taught in English schools anymore. God Knows where they might all end up getting to.

I think the classic moments in my career with English as a spoken language and hobby for some is...

Having an argument with my Norwegian boss on the usage of the language.

Listening to the Koreans complain about the Japanese and how crap their English is.

What allot of people don't realize is that their is no proper way to speak it anymore, English exists in no less than 15 spoken forms as far as I can count. One of my favorite flavors is Filipino English

"Cheep! Cheep! Outside come inside!"
Translated "Chief! Chief!, we're taking on water"

Indian English when it meets continental English is also good for mad cap misunderstanding. I recommended to a Nowveegian to read allot of Charles Dickens before he went over. He didn't get it. And yes, it does help to bob your head back and forth.

Which thread is this?? Is it the swimming thread? I swim.....:ROFLMAO:

HR is the dumping grounds for no loads, mental midgets and ass kissers.

What they should really do is man it up with PTSD sufferers.

"I wish I could get paid more and my boss treated me better"

"Well wish in one hand and shit in the other, see which one fills up first. Now get back to work jackass"

Maybe I should apply for HR Director positions.

lol I have tried that and I dont think they liked my way of getting shit done.

lol Wagon my dad is now an English professor and he is the first to admit there is a myriad of dialects even in the US! "I'm fixing to" in the south is "I plan to, or I am about to' In the north... etc.. Coke here means any carbonated beverage, go to GA, esp ATL and ask them for a Dr Pepper they will ask what flavor.. (Coke, Sprite etc,,)

We had a Filipino DI in our sister company.. 2100 rolls around, across the courtyard comes "Look at dees!!! you cant eben make a pucking bong!!! your peelows look like sheets!!! I Mash you till your eyeballs roll out of your heads!!!" Lol... 30 yrs ago and still one of my fav boot camp memories... and yes of all people I know you can do the voice over....


I digress tho.. what makes me mad??? I am back sliding... been kinda spooked lately.. called up Nichol to go to the gun show yesterday, had to have a Glock Model 22 and can't buy it myself... just felt unprotected, like I needed to defend myself, and like I needed it, I just needed it... Nala had alerted a few times recently, once I threw open the door with her unleashed and there were two people almost on my porch talking real low... something about all those really big teeth running out on the porch made them leave...

No I did not get the Glock... wisdom and a UCW charge held sway....

Just pissed because I haven't had those kinda feelings in awhile.....

I am going to take a break from therapy.

Human nature being what it is no one likes to admit they don't know what they are doing...so apparently the reason I am not lower down on the scale on their (literal) chart of progress I must either be lying to them about things or I am not using the tools they gave me efficiently.

So I think I need a break from the people that make me feel bad for not ...I don't know....getting better to their satisfaction.

When I had a panic attack at my new job last week ( too many people and sounds and hard to filter through the noise to pick out the "enemy" if required...yes that is still rattling around in my brain I guess) I realized that couples conjoint therapy only taught me how to talk to my husband...the only tool I have when I feel like I have to fight my way out of a room is to put my back against the wall and try not to cry like a little girl.... Then when I can't breathe and feel like I have to start swinging I go to the bathroom and lock myself in a stall until I can get it together....

When I start to have thoughts about going for a walk and not coming back...it's time for a break from the Docs.

Today's Sludge-tantrum:

I won a car back in November. I had less than 2k miles on a 2013 Malibu and a goddamned deer jumped in front of a tractor trailer rig passing me on the freeway tonight. Half of the deer came through the windshield and I had to ditch into a culvert at 50mph. Good news is I am covered in blood and hair, but it is all deer. Car is totaled. Bad news is 'Po-dog and I had to get a ride to the veterinary emergency clinic in a cop car K-9 unit and there was no salvageable venison to share with the dogs.

Also extremely good news- the vet says 'Po-dog is unharmed as I had actually bothered to put him in his doggie car harness in the back seat for a change. Also he is VERY happy to be covered in deer blood and is enthusiastically washing himself off with help from our other dogs.

I want my guns back so I can fill the freezer with bastard deer.

 

[tho9900]

happy Po-Dog is ok... and you probably saw my near purchase of another sidearm... not ready for it yet tho... might just get it before any laws are passed and have Nichol keep it under lock and key until I am ready..

sucks about your car though... I need to clean out the back of the Xterra so Nala can get belted there with her harness...

 

[tho9900]

not sure if you will be here too JennyMac... hope to see you down the road tho!!!

Anger? Man, oh, man. I can't even describe it today. 3 walks around the building and I still haven't settled down. Then the phone rings and I am like a cat, clawed to the ceiling looking down.

Me? Angry? Nah. Just quit shootin' at me.

 

[Wagon]

Today. Injustice. Good people getting treated like crap. Good people trying and just getting smacked back down. Not myself at all. Just people I meet. It pisses me off to no end. I want f*cking justice!!!!
