Do you guys ever get 'FALLING DOWN' emotions!?

Post by Yi-Long »

Remember the movie falling down!? With Michael Douglas playing a guy getting fucking fed up with all the lil small annoyences!?

Well... got a letter from school today. Seems they have somehow LOST my paper. How nice. Just called them and mailed them the proof that I indeed turned it in (a lil coupon with a sig on it), so it shouldnt be a big problem. The problem with this is that it's already the 3rd BS letter I got from school threatening me and scaring me that I might fail... WITHIN 3 MONTHS!!! And tbh, I'm getting sick of it. The first letter said I was still missing a grade from last year: turned out to be BS. Then the 2nd letter came in and said I missed a whole class last year: science. I'm in graphic design; we dont EVEN HAVE SCIENCE!!! 2nd BS letter trying to scare me.
And now this BS.

And I'm just talking about the last 3 months. Don't even get me started on the whole year before, with an amazing amount of faults, errors, mistakes and just plain BS from school. I'm getting fed up.

And this is just school I'm talking about. I havent even began about all the other crap from banks, goverment, insurances, doctors, things getting 'lost' in the mail, not being able to file an official complaint against it, etc etc etc...

Life is too stressfull. I need a shotgun, or a permanent vacation to a nice pacific island where I can live solely on coconuts and fried monkeys...

Anyone else get what I'm saying!?

fried monkeys rock :D

anyways, back on topic sounds like you have the same 'sods law' virus I have, which manifests itself such that everything that can go wrong in a slightly ludicrous way does go wrong. I mean if you cook bacon it would be easy to burn it so it ignores that opportunity but as soon as the bacon sandwich joy has passed it hits with a letter telling you you owe lots of money for something you knew nothing about in the first place or some such.

In your case its target is school, it knows that every so often a letter will be sent out by mistake but it's seen the opportunity to make a valid possibility of annoyance into a ludicrous one.

For me its credit cards. After finally getting the new credit card I find its on the wrong deal, just after sorting that out I try and use it only to find its blocked... apparently for not paying my bill. of course since I hadnt used it yet they finally admitted that the bill didnt exist and it was just a computer error. So card reinstated... with a £50 'administration charge' and a lower limit. on further enquiry the lower limit is due to my credit rating which has suddenly plummeted, thanks to the council in the last area I lived in deciding 6 months after I left that they had miscalculated my council tax and I owed them £50. Now even though I had given them my mobile , work phone number and my new address when I left my old address they still failed to contact me, apart from the letter telling me that due to none payment they were taking me to court. if I paid immediately i would not have to go to court but I would have to pay a court fee...of guess how much... £50.

So in the process of a week I had to pay £150 in order to get a lower ccard limit, a lower credit rating and around the cost of around £20 of phone calls... pass us the shotgun when your finished with it.... ;)

Yes 8)

Let me just finish my quick trip to Washington with my concealed sniper rifle and I'll join up with you in that island... if that's ok, of course.
Just don't touch my fried monkeys, do your own dishes and laundry, and don't start talking to any volleyballs called Wilson, and your more then welcome to join me on my island... ;)

Whoa, whoa, whoa! I think we need to calm down a little, here!


I certainly feel the need for mass murder on a regular basis, mostly at work. And then I come home to chill out and find shit like Gordon Ramsay and Big Brother on the TV where everyone is stressing out and swearing and shouting at each other. Legalise Marijuana? It should be made compulsory.

Ok... here's the deal.

I bought a new PC in early/mid october.
Immediately, I noticed the sound wasnt working (I'm really really sharp that way, I know ;) ) so I called the helpdesk (70 cts a minute).
They said they'd fix it... nothing happens.
Called them over 10 times the last 2,5 months, and they're just making false promises and shit...

...so now I feel like going over to their headquarters and kicking their asses...

How do I cope with the anger and rage within me!? How long would I have to go to jail if I did indeed go over there and burn the fucking place down!? Cause right now... 6 months jailtime orso seems kinda worth it...

gawd I hope I don't kill the guy once he does finally show up. At least not before he fixed my computer... :cry:
