Your Festivus Airing of Grievances/Open Thread

Senor Weaselo

/

, ,

Well, another year has come and gone, and it’s time for another Festivus celebration.

RIP Jerry Stiller, who I would wager had free rein to do whatever he wanted during Festivus dinner. No script, just go off.

Anyway, since we’re light until the evening it’s time for our own Airing of Grievances! Sure, that’s what every other open thread is for too, but this is a hallowed time. I have grievances too! Most of them are me actually, like for not writing the 2021 Expo House of Pain recap yet. Or for not writing the MarbleCon BOTG yet. Or for not sending stuff to Zymm and LagerLoverLarry yet. (To the point that I have to go back to the Chinese supermarket in Sunset Park, so no, not H-Mart as it’s overpriced; and your Hi-Chews have gotten all cold and eaten.)

All those things will be done! Eventually.

Yes, I’m aware that Fozz should have done this thread. That man has some grievances, dammit. And we have heard of them. And we do not envy him.

Let’s see, other grievances:

-Wordpress for breaking the site in March, breaking the polls, which might still be broken. So we’ll see if there’s a banner bracket in 2022.

-The maintenance department at Apartment Weaselo. They’re doing… something with the balcony railings, maybe? Regardless there’s been the sound of vibrating and grinding going on for the last two, three weeks.

-The area around Senorita Weaselo’s house because it’s nearly impossible to find parking after 10 PM or so.

-COVID-19, for obvious reasons.

-The New York Jets, for inevitably ruining Zach Wilson.

-The New York Jets, for inevitably ruining Robert Saleh (who now has covid.)

-The New York Jets, for continuing to be the Jets.

-Gary Sánchez, for forgetting to use the right side of the field and becoming the king of rocket line drives/one-hoppers right to someone, probably for a double play.

-The New York Yankees, for ruining Gary Sánchez.

-The New York Yankees, for potentially ruining Gleyber Torres.

-The Midnight Wisps, for going from potentially winning Marble League 2020, to missing the podium, to being relegated to the Showdown in 2021, becoming the first former champion to suffer that ignominy.

-Rob Manfred, for being a semihemispherical disgrace.

-And lastly, but certainly not leastly, Roger Goodell, for being a national disgrace.

I probably forgot others, but yeah, have fun and have at it. Your favorite alleged hobo-stabber’ll be in for the night game. Remember, they’re only rumors, anecdotes, and allegations!

Cigarette companies. Your are more evil than music producers. Fuck you for making the most dependably enjoyable product in the history of humanity.

Cigar smokers. Smoking and not getting that thick, hot, and delicious vapor down the gullet and lungs is pure cowardice! That’s half the pleasure, you smug fucks.

Weed oil. I spent 25+ years smoking at least a pack of Marlboro reds every day. THC vape feels like acid on my alveoli. It’s too harsh!

Blunts. That
God
Damn
STANK. Blech. What the hell is wrong with a joint?

Society. Still frowns on public joint smoking.

Time. Grievances were yesterday. I blame

Speaking of High-chews, why hasn’t Facebook sent every employee a selection of snacks from the microkitchens while we’re working at home? There are new employees who have never even had a free snack from a microkitchen! It’s a travesty! There’s more to being a tech company than creepy data usage, without free snacks we’re no different from equifax!

Senor Weaselo

Do you have a flavor preference? The ones I got were my favorite pairing of the cola and ramune, but next time I make a run I can get different flavors! Probably less likely to get eaten flavors!

So not watermelon, that will not get to you because I will devour them.

1
Doktor Zymm

I have not had a flavor I dislike, they are all amazing

Gumbygirl

Welp, you asked for it! This is just a partial list, don’t want to harsh anyone’s buzz.And away we go!
1. Donald Trump, his family, his slack-jawed supporters, and anyone who has anything positive to say about him. No exceptions.
2. All other Republicans.
3. Anyone with any connection to organized religion, with the exception of my Aunt, Sister Patrice, who walks the walk.
4. Fundamentalist zealots of any flavor.
5. Ben Roethlisberger.
6. Househunting, in this insane market.
7.Billionaires. Most millionaires too, especially the ones who avoid paying taxes.
8.Beets. They are gross and taste like dirt.
9.The two bitches who made my life a living hell when I worked at the post office. Die in a fiery crash, both of you.
10. Anything else not stated above that annoys the fuck out of me.

The good news, I am still in the LDB challenge!

Almost forgot:

Not being Gumbygirl’s favourite even though no one told me.

I am out of LDB, but I have no grievances on that account as it was a pretty awesome Caribbean version playing in Sint Maarten

I mistook that for seppuku.com and was a little worried there.

Hard to get a lot of practice on that.

I’ll give it a try

-Low calorie beer. God, it’s awful crap but my fitness goal demands that I must have it.

-The Giants. Mara is such a conservative, complacent guy that no individual with a dynamic presence will ever be hired within the organization.

-Joe Judge. Simply put, he’s failed at the most basic level. He preaches discipline and execution and organization and the team and his in-game coaching are a carousel of bad decisions, mental errors and missed opportunities. He’s a loud-mouthed fraud.

-I realize it comes with the territory but I’d like to be free of my work phone for one week. I know that this low-level stress is slowly killing me from the inside out.

-My kids not having a clue as to the amount of work that my wife and I have put in to be able to make their lives comfortable.

-Of course the anti-vaxxers. We were looking for a part-timer in the warehouse and came across a guy that had been fired from his very lucrative mining job (benefits and stipends up the yin yang) because the prick refused to get pricked. He has three kids and a wife that doesn’t work but this anti-vax shit has taken over his life at the possible expense of his kid’s health and perhaps his living arrangements. What. The. Fuck.

-I’m sick and tired of shaving every day

3
scotchnaut

Forgot one thing.

-Cancer. It captured my uncle 2 weeks ago and my sister-in-law has been diagnosed with the pancreatic kind. She’ll be leaving three kids behind-the youngest is 15.

King Hippo

My Dad had pancreatic. I don’t pray much, but I 100% will pray for y’all.

WCS

This is NAWT a grievance: I am the ONLY person at work right now. I’m watching college football, on this fine dickjoke website, and I could be drinking, if that wouldn’t kill me.

I may call up Princess Fiancé and bang her royal booty in the boss’s office, which isn’t locked for some reason.

I’ve addressed it in the intro to the game but Jimmy G gives you a helluva lot of bang for your buck when he does drop back to pass.

Grievances:

–RTD guilting us about not having enough grievances
–Back pain
–Being nomadic and not knowing when I’ll land in one place
–More meetings on my calendar today and next week
–My boss thinking she’s super flexible but crushing dissent and hurting my (and others’) morale
–The McCaskey family
–Beer making me gassy
–The entirety of the Republican party
–Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Fuckhead in particular for successfully grifting their base and hurting America while being complete ignoramuses
–The media and everyone else who is bothsidesing our way to the downfall of democracy in this country

This is NAWT a grievance.

If it wasn’t for reckless racist cops getting away with murder, she’d only get off with a slap of the wrist and a police-type dishonorable discharge. This jury wanted to send a message.

She was also very unlikeable, both on the stand and on tape. Easier to say fuck it, she sucks.

The Maestro

HERE WE GO.

  • Premier Doug Ford, for making all of Ontarians’ lives fucking miserable in so many ways. From handling Covid to massive economic inequality to the dismantling of the public education system… if I ever saw him alone on the street, I would proceed to take a course of action that would violate our website’s terms of service.
  • The housing market in Canada. I have done everything I was told to do through high school and university with progressing with my education, working a good job, and saving tons and tons of cash… and I will still never be able to buy a house because of so many speculative motherfuckers who seek to turn a profit off of renting.
  • The Canadian federal government as a whole, who are milquetoast dickheads who refuse to imagine a better future all because they fear disrupting the status quo of end-stage capitalism.
  • My landlady, who doesn’t work and lives above me and will never stop fucking screaming at her purebred Siamese cats in Spanish… my rent money is subsidizing her lifestyle and the care of these pampered fucks. I hate it here.
  • My principal, who refuses to treat me like a human being and is killing morale at school… I was the only one of a staff of 100 to receive a Christmas card signed with “have a great summer”. Also refuses to give me feedback on specific interview questions despite being mandated to by our collective bargaining agreement.
  • Fascists. Need I say more?
  • Neoliberals. Centrism isn’t a viable political position anymore – it’s just capitulation to fascism.
  • Cryptocurrency and NFT speculators. GET A REAL JOB YOU DUMBASSES. I CAN RIGHTCLICK ALL YOUR SHITTY JPEGS ALL DAY LONG MOTHERFUCKERS
  • Antivaxxers. I will treat you like the organic, non-GMO specimens you are when I become God-Emperor… by locking you in pens. I swear to God, I hear one more asshole braying about their rights and freedoms, I will take a sledgehammer with the word “RESPONSIBILITIES” stamped on it to the hood of their car.
  • Elon Musk, for wrecking the economy via Tweets in a brand-new, and far less entertaining, manner. Also for producing shitty cars that kill dumb people… and innocent bystanders as well.
  • Eugene Melnyk, for single-handedly destroying my favoUrite hockey team by a broke, narcisstic asshole. Who the fuck gets a liver transplant – from one of his team’s OWN FUCKING FANS – and then proceeds to trade away literally every single good player over the next three years all just to save a few bucks? Who destroys all goodwill with the city government and torpedoes an overly generous arena construction agreement (which shouldn’t have given him any tax dollars in the first place, mind you) because he was feeling petty over a single portion of mixed housing that he wouldn’t share revenue from as part of the neighboUrhood redevelopment. Rot in hell, you worthless asshole. I hope your corpse is eaten by a pack of wild dogs.

Can you spare %$20 for my church? The money will go to full-time workers who don’t have time to buy their kids the video games they so desperately need, and Netflix subscriptions for those who can’t watch the new Emily St Whatever adaptation.

I got a lot of problems with some people, not you all in the Clubhouse, and now you’re gonna hear about a several of them!!

  1. Anti vaxxing fuckwits – thanks a lot for extending the pandemic by doing your own research.
  2. Joe Manchin and Kirsten Sinema — just switch parties you attention whores
  3. Elon Musk — is it necessary to have the asshole in asshole super genius?
  4. Kars 4 Kids — fuck you (and sorry for putting that song in all your heads)
  5. Ben Roethlisberger’s corpse piloting the Steelers. 8-8-1 and no game changing QBs in the draft as far as I can tell . . . gonna be a Cliff Stoudt kind of replacement or maybe Mark Malone (sigh)
  6. Cryptocurrency geeks. Line for snake oil starts over here, fellas
  7. Joe and Troy — good God, I want to spear myself in the ear every time they speak
  8. 4 teams in the JV CFB — this is stupid. All Power 5 conference winners +3 at large — if you’re outside that range, you aren’t gonna win so enjoy the fucking Peach Bowl.
  9. Fruit Beers. There one fruit acceptable in beer and that is hops — fuck your botany degrees saying otherwise.
  10. People who cannot even finish a Top Ten list of Grievances. Fuck me.
