To the obnoxious women at Cube last night. You are mean.

So when you say ‘gutless’ vg, you wouldn’t be talking about how you’re to pathetic to threaten your violence where you can’t hide behind your little security blanket of ‘fair contest’ would it now – or are you still trout-mouthing about your exploits in the P&C ring?

Seems to me you don’t have the balls to do anything about your mouth once you’ve shot it off buddy. But hey we both know this is the internet and we’re all six foot six and our cocks swing down past our knees.

Don’t go holding your breath buddy. Last time we were graced with vg’s superior editorial prowess was in July last year – and oh what a scintillating piece on land values it was. This site works better if the editorial content is left to the grown-ups and the gutless fat-mouthing, tough guy posturing and pointless sniping from the peanut gallery is left to vg.

Did you need someone to hold your hand to lead you into this post?

Very amateurish try at a wind up as well. Maybe get a bit more hand holding guidance from Fant, princess.

Don’t make me embarrass you with the ‘gutless’ bit either. Ask around, that ain’t me

Hey, “where’s a good cup of coffee” threads are good!

Venting threads are the pits.

If you need to vent, you need to vent. But if you publish it to a few thousand people, at least some of us are going to get annoyed with your public indulgence.

Phone a friend.

I should know better. Maybe reading everything on RA has become a compulsion.

But this one plumbs new depths for infantile self indulgence.

I wait with orgasmic anticipation for the next breathtakingly exciting instalment – “Someone got served at the bar before me and I think I was there first!”

Maybe the Canadian who got slapped in Manuka was a relative too.

The “Where can I buy a cup of coffee” threads are almost intelligent in comparison.

Maybe next week you should head to an R&B Club!

http://www.the-riotact.com is the top hit in google for the age old question “I put seizure medication up my derriere, am I now queer?”

…and “Suck My Beatles” appears to be second. I am curious as to that the answer to that question is however. None of the sites google has discovered appear to answer it.

settle down kiddies.

this OP reminds me of ‘YOU PISSED ME OFF’ in BMA.

and, before anyone flames me on the basis of that assessment being an implied insult, it’s the first thing i always read in BMA!!

That column is so great.

I’ve never been in a real fight before but the story described by OP would probably have eventually pushed me to breaking point. I probably would have pushed her out of the way though instead of going the king hit.

Hmm, would that be battery? I might go look that up to see if there would be a defence.

Well at least one good thing has come out of this post.

Thanks Reactivista!

this OP reminds me of ‘YOU PISSED ME OFF’ in BMA.

Exactly what I thought. I too read it first in BMA. If only the FOTW on riotact had the same level of self serving random capitals and horrendous swearing…

People are bitchy. Hope this rant made you feel better. I wondered about a North American connection by the use of “Sweater”, and was convinced by the term “douchebaggery”, not something heard around here.

Whoops I forgot an important disclaimer: I actually like most security guards.

I think Fant is a Chubbie or other security guard type who harbours a desire that is well out of reach.

Well reactivista, you should have belted her with a middie glass! Then vg and his cop colleagues would have had some excitment in their lives. They could have roared up with their lights going, and felt all important as they stumped around, being useless. Then they could have gone back to the station and carefully typed out reports, noses pressed up to the screen, all two fingers going.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck……………..

What ails you so? Did you get a ticket once?

(BTW Fant, I used 4 fingers to type this, am I some sort of genius in my employ?)

To all those saying this is a pointless post, would you rather see only serious news stories? Then we’d be looking at maybe 5 posts a day…. And it does seem kind of stupid to read the thread, then post that it’s pointless. WTF?

Reactivista, that sucks. However as others have pointed out, $8 is really not that much (think of it in terms of coffee) so next time it might be worth budgeting for the locker hire. Either that, or pile your sweaters/jumpers/overcoats in the middle of the floor while you dance around it 🙂

One final comment – Ant, we all know how much you hate cops. Do we really need it reiterated in every single thread? Please, ease up a bit 🙂

FYI- Cube cloakroom has always been $2 when I’ve put my stuff there.

Oh, get over it kids. Honestly, I vented and felt better and all self-important, etc. I also know now not to put my things somewhere. Not nearly as entertained by my post? Post something yourself. Simple as that. 🙂

DING! The tool-o-meter just found a winner!

“deal with douchebaggery, I would go to Moosehead’s or ICBM.”

People go to ICBM? last time i walked past there it was empty – i laughed.

I have to say that post was pretty damn pointless.

Poor students but can afford to go out to a niteclub.

Different definition of ‘poor student’ to what I know.

Was cask-wine not invented yet when you were a youth, gramps?

Well wear pants with pockets Einstein, or is your appearance a priority over your health?

How about the woman in the road just not being an obnoxious bitch? Problem solved.

Ooh, look, it’s Mr Tolerance, being all tolerant.

“However I carry two pills with me at all times in a small canister, so I don’t bring the entire stash with me.”

Well wear pants with pockets Einstein, or is your appearance a priority over your health?

Answering a few questions-

Yes, venting. Feels good sometimes. Anything to keep me from finishing this paper I’m working on, really.

I’m a Canadian, on exchange for a couple of months. For me, a sweater is a jumper. Now that that’s been clarified…

Like I said, I would have taken full responsibility had my medication been taken. That’s the risk you take by leaving your things somewhere. However I carry two pills with me at all times in a small canister, so I don’t bring the entire stash with me. The woman had no intent of taking my medication. She was just too obnoxious to take one step to the right. Had she moved, I would have thanked her, taken my sweater, and put it somewhere where no one could have blocked my access to it.

So as a student, I don’t ever deserve to go out with my friends? I budget according to what my abilities are, and I don’t drink past my means. It’s not like I’m splurging $40 on booze. I’m out for a special occasion and have budgeted accordingly.

Yes, $8 is a bit when I’m considering a few other things. Again, my friends and I don’t carry our overcoats and sweaters around with us because they’re something that I don’t see many people having an interest in stealing- in my case, a black shoddy sweater with a small canister with pills in it? Take if if you will. But I’d rather hang on to it- keeps me warm and has sentimental value. So if it’s right there, and there’s some woman standing in front of it, not letting me get it because her derriere is just so large I can’t reach… ?

I’m not epileptic – flashing lights don’t bother me. Not everybody who suffers seizures suffers them as a result of the same things.

My concern wasn’t with the excess clothing, it was with a woman who refused to take a step to the left to let me get my sweater. That’s all. 🙂

“Only mistake I can see is…. wait for it…. a stab in the dark… YOU WENT TO THE CUBE.”

Second mistake: You complained about on RiotAct!

Pfttt…. $8 is one drink in most clubs isn’t it? Between you and a mate or two it’s nothing is it?

So you went out with very little cash? Been there done that – haven’t we all?
You come across a rude and obnoxious person in a club. A given really.
You carry medication for seizures… should you be drinking or in a doof doof flashing lights environment?

Only mistake I can see is…. wait for it…. a stab in the dark… YOU WENT TO THE CUBE.

I agree with VG about the “poor students” out clubbing. If they were so concerned about their excess clothing maybe they could have one or two less drinks for the night and put the money toward a locker. $8 is not a lot of money, especially between two or more people.

A severe case of “handbags at dawn” by the sound of it!

Maybe we can have a separate, permanent thread “VENT: write-only (don’t bother reading or responding).”

Woody Mann-Caruso said :

“No matter where you post it, as long as you posted and got it off your chest.

And then set the riotact wordpress to just not show them….

erm, what is this “sweater”?

According to the OED, it’s “a woollen vest or jersey worn in rowing or other athletic exercise, orig. (cf. a) in order to reduce one’s weight; now commonly put on also before or after exercise to prevent taking cold. Hence a similar garment for general informal wear; a jumper or pullover.”

Go ahead – claim it’s an ‘Americanism’. May as well get being wrong out of the way before the start of a new week. You can even say “erm” at the start so you come off as British, indignant, slightly confused and superior, all at once, like Hugh Grant.

ant said :

well, we’ll all wait with ‘bated breath to see what you feel should be on Riotact, as you certainly hold many and strong opinions about what shouldn’t be.

Why, because you say so Fant?

You think I really care that much.

If and when I do post it won’t be something that needs to be in Dolly magazine as per this thread

Don’t you hate it when there’s orange in your vodka? I believe I read somewhere that vodka and orange was what prostitutes drank.

vg, we invite you to post some examples of topics you’d like to see on Riotact. You know, those “big” issues.

You just go to the blue button up the top, that says “post an item”, it’s quite easy.

Poor students but can afford to go out to a niteclub.

My heart: broken in two.

Next you’ll be complaining of a little too much orange in your vodka and orange

Yeah … that sucks!

Riotact, dealing with the ‘big’ issues.

Karma is good but kicking her in the funny spot would have been better.
No wonder I don’t go out much. Was crap like that that stopped me going out in the first place.
No matter where you post it, as long as you posted and got it off your chest.

It sweater outside than inside too!

erm, what is this “sweater”? It doesn’t sound very nice. You know, pigs sweat, men perspire and ladies glow, and all that. Is this some kind of medical device for people with a perspiration problem?

And Panama, I may love your cartoons but PUNS see one banished to the Offal Thread. You do not want to go there.

[groan…] stick to the pencil, palindrome! 😉

oh the irony that they decided to seize ya medication

Yes, you’re right. They are mean. I also believe that what goes around comes around, but the important trick is not to take pleasure in the inevitable comeuppance.

It seems as though anyone who goes out at night for a drink these days runs the risk of getting abused, bashed up by an over eager bouncer or knifed by someone of islander or middle eastern appearance. Looks like the girls are getting into the swing of things as well.
I think the word “obnoxious” is a bit tame for these “ladies”.

venting. here is as good a place as anywhere!

Nice post – assuming the people you are targeting are RA regulars. If they’re not, then I’m not sure what the point of this thread is.

they sound like b*tches.

just wondering – what if you needed your medication but your sweater had been stolen?
