The Rant Rave thread

edited November -1 in The Lounge / Random Stuff
Basically, a place for you to dump your rants and/or raves. Consider this a sort of livejournal for the lounge- you want to get it off your chest, but maybe it doesn't merit and entire thread. I'll start

Rave- Rachels allowing you to share burritos, because those things are huge and I'll still tip for two meals even if I only order one.
Intervention on-demand which is my favorite thing about having cable
The scents in which Ikea manufactures their candles...subtle and nice without giving me a migraine.

Rant- People clipping me in the heels with their shopping cart...i mean seriously, you're 45 and you haven't learned how to drive a cart in C-town?
The F train, which I love but has really fucked me over lately.
Rude people who think they can touch my body without asking (and I don't mean accidentally rubbing up against. I mean an obvious poke or prod because they're curious about my piercings or tattoos. If you have a question...ask. No touching.)



Now go!

    Do you have TWC? Channel 1010- A&E ondemand. There's usually 3 or 4 episodes, they rotate every few weeks. I accept thanks in the form of booze.

    Rave: The intervention episode about the girl addicted to compressed air cans.

    Rant: I am so woefully sick and I am all by myself. shouldn't i have a friend who will sit up with me watching terrible movies with The Rock when I feel like poo?

    Rant: Wtf are you ladies doing posting? Shouldn't you still be at Beast?

    I did not go to beast- I had to help my best friend shop at ikea for her new apt (oh the joys of having a car.) Truth be told shes basically the most important person to me ever soooooo I help her out whenever she asks. Hence the Rachels burrito sharing.

    And Vidro- you need a good bff. Aforementioned best friend has totally cared for me while I had a cold. Movie marathons are a must for best friends!

    OMG! I never looked that far up the dial. Now (on top of all of my DVR stuff, my Netflix, my Roku box, the HBO/SHO on demand I am behind on) I have another reason to stay in on a cold day.

    Payment in the form of booze = when will I see YOUR episode? :lol:

    I saw that one too. Holy shit! I'm so glad people most of the people I knew weren't into shit like that...and meth wasn't around.

    We had enough with weed, coke, acid, mushrooms, mescalin and quaaludes, thank you very much :lol:

    Rave: the inner peace of yoga

    It truly brings out the best in me.

    Rant: comme des garcons for h&m

    What gross stuff and people stood on line for that crap! The regular comme des garcons line is very innovative, but this was not up to snuff.

    Rant: over the shoulder readers on the subway

    Bring your own reading material and don't get annoyed when I suddenly stop reading my magazine and pull out a (gasp) book.

    I found out about Brooklynian from ML via you, Mamacita, so it was the other way around. I'm Tom on ML, but that name was already taken here.

    Rave: I just turned on VH1 and am watching Trading Spouses. It's a hot mess. My rave is that watching this crap makes me feel a lot less fucked up than I think I am. :-)

    Everyone was great at Barette last night, and that pepper martini reminded me of my tequila macho days. I'm always up for drinking coffee, beer or otherwise. Except when I'm sleepy.

    Rave: Tequila + habañero + lime = Tequila Macho, goes great with achiote braised pork ribs otherwise known as my lame and lazy version of cochinita pibil.

    Not in the least. My Ex-GF went to Parsons, he spoke at her commencement and I got to meet him. Totally everything you would expect and more.

    Rave: I got to meet Tim Gunn!

    Rant: PR is apparently in limbo and may be cancelled?
